Air Jordan 1 Alpha Question

[udntnoeme01]

Do they use full-zoom?  Or Air-Sole in the heel and zoom in the forefoot?  According to Nike store : Rubber cupsole with encapsulated Air Sole unit at heel for maximum cushioning
But according to Finishline: So
[h2]Features full-length Zoom Air, a perforated leather upper, minimal stitching and a mesh inner lining. [/h2]
 So, which is true?  Based on the images of the clear sole I'm guessing full-zoom.  Can anyone confirm this?

For those that say why, I have these and they are AWESOME. So comfortable. To be able to ball in a 1 look a like and not tear up my feet is great. Dont knock em till you tried em.

They have full length bottom loaded Zoom Air. That's what it said when they introduced them on the Jordan Brand website. The clear portion of the outsole is there so you can the Zoom Air bag.

Full-length zoom? Is that so? I might have to go ahead and buy them again. I returned my pair since I wanted to go get the DMP 1s pack. The bulky look just wasn't cutting it for me, but I guess they finally went on sale and I have some spare change to scoop up a pair. Thanks guys.

With it being bottom loaded, it doesn't have the same spring and pop that a top loaded Zoom Air unit has, but you can still feel the responsiveness of it.

 

[h-n-t-w-m-n]

Full length Zoom encapsulated. The comfort on the Alpha is damn good.

Knowing this, I kind of want to buy a pair on the 59.98 sale at finishline. My 20 off winners circle coupon should be in any day... Make it even sweeter.

I am double checking with my contacts on this information, if they reply back stating anything other than what is above, I will be sure to post an update.
