Nike Air Jumpman Pro retro (Spring 2017)

400


Fred Jones brought these in to show me today [emoji]128064[/emoji][emoji]128064[/emoji]
 
the blk/wht/gold!!! one of my grails!! beat my OG pair to heaven! i'm going to run and check my local FL and FTL tomorrow.
 
WOW, after seeing that video I'm HIGHLY disappointed and I haven't even seen the black/golds in person yet. They couldn't even do full length Zoom Air? I kind of expected fake carbon fiber since I heard these were coming back, and that was confirmed the other day. But damn. Obviously the remastering process doesn't extend too far beyond certain flagship Jordan Retros and isn't kept to the same standard across the board. I totally 100% agree when the dude in the video says, "How could you put this ish out?" And raise the price to $140? With literally NONE of the tech? And a pleather upper? LOL, are you kidding me? These went from a "must have" pair to a "likely wait for a DEEP discount" pair in record time.

damn sucks to hear about the info on the review. will scoop on deep discount if i feel like it
 
Here's to HOPING that the black/white/gold OG Pros come back in OG form this time around. This was my favorite of the OG Pros by far.

I got this pair of very lightly used size 13s for about $60 on eBay in the early 00's. Worn them maybe 6 times. Still in great condition in my vault, but I'd love a brand new pair to wear with no fear of disintegration, LOL.

THIS COLOR WAY IN FOOTLOCKER RIGHT NOW, SEEN THEM THE OTHER DAY
 
So I was surprised to see the white/blk/gold colorway at footlocker today didn't even know they were dropping tbh
This has always been one of my fav jumpman pro colorways
I picked up OGs from napsize back in 07 for dirt cheap
However after a couple wears they unglued and I got rid of them
The quality on these is ehhhhhhh
I was hoping for better quality
They leather feels super light and thin
And the nubuck feels cheap not even buttery like the OG
I had $20 off but still
I'll wait till they hit the sales rack and might be exchanging them for storm blues
I'll update with pic for you guys later on when I get home

@Rashad79 what's Freddie been up to these days ? Nice to see JB taking care of their retirees. About the Jumpman Pros, I don't understand what JB is turning into..

damn...these were my first pair of jordans that I bought with my own money, will cop that black/blue for nostalgic purposes but man I def would have loved to hoop in these again if they did a proper retro
really disappointed they did this shoe dirty twice
 
He's been cool . He has a shoe store here in Indianapolis and has a shoot 360 gym about to open up
 
Another non-mainline retro shoe from Jordan with shoddy quality. Big surprise.

Was going to get a pair but now will have to be sub-$100. Not paying retail for Walmart kicks with a Jumpman logo.

They did those pairs last year dirty too of the Team Jumpman 2.
 
i would've jumped on that: 1) if quality was on point w/ OG release and 2) if it was the same deal on FTL/Champs...need to more mvp points...haha

also...i think FNL used the stock photo of the OG cause the cf spring plate is real cf and the the lace lock looks to be real metal instead of painted plastic.

Was thinking the SAME thing. Especially about the loops.
 
Just watched that exceptional review.. that carbon fiber shank is quite possibly the worst tech swap Ive ever seen on a retro. As if the plastic wasn't enough they made it black and red? Who's dumb *** idea was that???????????????

This was my first pair of Jordans ever and I hated the last retro.. now this.. Why smh. He said it perfectly, the select few that care will feel like **** with the treatment they gave us. Huge let down.. and the shape is off too; it kept irritating me while I was watching the vid and he held them next to the OG.
