I recently started playing in my XX9s again, forgot how supremely comfortable those shoes are. Will definitely get a pair of these as well for ball, regardless of the disappointing design.

^ wrong thread bro
I'm sure they wear test the crap out of those before it was scrapped. I think Jordan himself still does wear test them to some extend and then have guys like Westbrook test them. personally i don't think it was the design that caused it to be scrapped, but rather the performance aspect of it.But would that not be way too late to judge them being not good enough for performance after created a fully designed sample?
The sole looks like the 28 configuration but with thicker sole pods and the upper seems to be a mix of flyknit / woven with some leather parts on.
I personally think if they add a higher and more padded anklesection and make the pods more sleak they would be fine. I somehow have the feeling that JB just designs the new aur jordans for a player like Westbrook and less for heavier players.
AJ2011 and 2012 were adjustable at least.
The zoom bag in janoskis is pretty thin though. Can hardly notice it
valid point. I suppose some cushion is better than noneThe reason I like the thinner sole is that it won't life your heel that much higher. In my experience when you mess with insoles it changes the heel height which can aggravate injuries.

dang man, feel better , my pops got into the smallest fender bender but his neck went a weird way and snap hes a quad nowI got rear ended two weeks ago and my back is just a little tight so my sensitivity has increased to stuff like that. That's why I loved the Lebron XII low. Air max in the back wtih the zoom pods is stupid comfortable.

i know for back problems and stuff people be shellin out like $200 for custom insoles
luckily my back ain that bad yet
Yeah. I've had no luck with any of these insoles. My bro works at a store where they get discounts on all of them. The only ones I've really liked are the super feet, but the side to side movement of basketball doesn't work well with any of these. I've always believed that a good cushioning setup is crucial for basketball.
I feel for your pops man. The cars are built to take the hits, but we aren't. Thanks for the well wishes bro.
I've recently started to have some feet/arch problems myself, so I've tried a lot of the store-bought insoles as well. I also like the Superfeet the best, but nothing is perfect. Doctor told me recently that I need to get custom orthotics, which are super expensive. Going to do it if I can get insurance to cover it. Hopefully, it helps.
So, although the situation is different, I sympathize with your situation. Best of luck and I hope your back starts to feel better.
The materials used in the manufacturing process will alter the look somewhat.These were handmade so the finish product will look slightly different. Just like all prototypes it's a good look at what you want the end result to look like. And the bar over the top is a device. It's a ionized copper bar to allow flowing energy around your foot the part of the foot that moves the most during play. It's helps keep oxygenated blood flowing helping to prevent injuries.saw a video of these
reminds me of some adidas tmac from early 2000
whats the purpose of the bar that wraps around the ankle?
How do you know what he was serious about? You don't know what he may do in the future. They already took 90% from my other design so it's not beyond them or too far fetch that they would use this design. Anyway as you can obviously see that JB and Tinker are running out of designs and need fresh blood. He is the one that said he liked them and they could be the next Jordans.
lol that shoe keeps coming back. It's kinda obvious tinker wasn't serious about them being the 31... if you really want to I mean start up the 31 thread and post them there. I've seen enough of them here though, like I said I personally think they would have been an excellent team shoe and I mean that... I would cop if they were released tomorrow (with some minor changes/refinement of course) as some sort of team shoe "jumpman omega" or what have you. But I'm sorry they simply would never be a sig, not at this point at least with the direction JB is seemingly headed. If they had any shot of being a sig it was back around the time of the 20s/21s/22s... seems like it fits in that era. I like them better than 22s...
Dude do you realize that when you are out of ideas that you will do anything to stay relevant? I'm not just some guy off the street I have been in correspondence with Nike for years but I never made a prototype to send them. I spoke with Wilson Smith one of the Air Jordan designers and he told me to go to school and for years I was trying to get my degree but I no longer wanted to go due to the cost of classes. Anyway I talked to Tinker and he saw them for himself held them in his hand and said that he liked them and they could be the next Air Jordan. I even see that the toe cap for the 30s is some what similar to mine. So don't think I don't realize what they are capable of. I will protect my design as much as possible but I had to put it out there to get some feedback. So it's a catch 20/20. I will continue to push my shoe I don't care if nobody on here likes it/ It's better than what they have been coming with lately and with the technology I got for these it's blowing everything else out of the water hands down.at some people believing Tinker was being serious to this guy.
They're not gonna use some guys design who just came off the street for an Air Jordan, or any other shoe for that matter. Especially not that design.
Thanks for a real comment without the childhood antics. Yeah the whole shoe will need refinement because it is a hand made shoe not to be sold. People on here act like what they are seeing is the finished product ready to go to shelf and even if so like I said they look better than most of the latest Air Jordans. So why do people need to hate? Yeah the design may be older but it has taken forever just to get to a place where I could meet the guy who I wanted to be like ever since I was younger. They keep taking my designs as this not the first time JB or Nike has done this as I see elements from other shoes I designed that they come out with on the market. I don't get mad I just realize that I must be good enough to actually do this if they are taking design cues from me. I am not here to argue with anybody about if they are taking my designs or not. I'm not here to get people's backing. I already know I will design a pair of Jordans and hopefully become the next designer because I got crazy ideas yet to be placed on paper since my designs keep getting taken. I will wait until I'm on the inside to let loose on the things I got up my sleeve.I see what tinker saw in that shoe being the 31 I'm sure he's going to use bits and pieces of your ideas in this shoe for the next concept of the 31 like the bottom (all the MJ picks )the back with silver jump man even the midsole with some refinement
I see you have a lot of time on your hand to be a troll. All good. In reality you are correct. I did redesign the Kobe kicks. When he signed to Nike I changed my design and I put the large Jumpman logo on the shoe. And no to the smart fellow who tried to be funny saying that I thought I invented the large Jumpman. No that is not what I'm saying. I said look at the shoe design and then the added element of the large Jumpman. its not a coincidence. Had the large Jumpman been on a shoe that looked nothing like mine then that would be one thing but it's too uncanny.
