Finally got my Force Vectors in.

Haven't tried them on, but hopefully they're just a sturdier version of the JCII.
I wish the logo on the side was not the same color as the midsole, but other than that, they look great aesthetically.

Finishline?

 

[thapointguy]

How is the leather quality?

 

[Jayou Ayen]

Finishline?

Yes sir, $120. The free shipping took like 10 days though.

thapointguy The leather feels like it's excellent quality.
I think they would hold up well on the court, but I've decided to keep them casual, just too nice of a shoe.

Duke, please tell the Vectors you're getting are the mesh versions.

I asked for leathers. Had to - I freaking love their leathers.

My connect over there threw in another pair of JC2 for making me wait on the Vectors.

Yall see the new trainers?

Duke -- been eyeing those new trainers since a pic surfaced - haven't tried the falcon or their other trainer/runner type models, but those new ones might be my first

Iks - trying to get a pair now for review.

Hope they get you a pair!  Tremendous value for us and for them from your reviews

@Jayou39  I know you were wondering whether or not the leather vectors fit similar to the J.C II.  Is the fit pretty similar?  I know the J.C II probably have more give, but I'm tempted to NOT stray from my size in the J.C II if I grab a pair of Vectors

3 straight posts... I know lol

Anways -- wondering if anyone has played in the Blackhawk outdoor specific model.  I'm intrigued by those -- gives me a foamposite vibe and the shape looks pretty solid (plus the durable traction).  Any thoughts would be awesome

 

[duke40]

You see the Blackhawks for sale on FNL for $56?

Yes and exactly why I am asking haha

 

[duke40]

I saw them in a Ross about 6 months ago. Upper feels very cheap (for a BB) but solid for outdoor. Cushioning was good Jetlon. I passed at $25 though.

Got my j crossovers in, got them in 9.5 (wear 9.5 in hyperdunks and they are perfect/a little snug). The 9.5 fit pretty much perfect after trying them on, haven't tried playing in them yet. I was a little paranoid after people saying to size down but these fit spot on. First time getting a performance woven shoe and love how they feel, keeps my foot contained.

Really like the grey/3m c/w so hopefully brandblack doesn't release any other c/w's I might like or I might have to get them too lol.

From only wearing the Vectors around the house, I'd say the fit is almost identical. I feel slightly more room in the toebox of the JC II. I typically wear 11.5 or 12s in basketball shoes. I went with 11.5 on both of these, and am happy with the fit.

Hey all, longtime lurker from the original forum host, finally signed up & my 1st post. I finally got a pair of BrandBlack JCII. I'm blown away. Quite possibly the most comfortable shoe I have worn.
Was gonna wear my pair to play in (rec games at my church with guys in their 40s-50s I'm 39). But I can't get myself to do it. These are amazing and I don't want to mess them up. I'll keep using my Peak TP9 (awesome shoe in its own right).
I signed up today to help anyone who wanted a pair of White/Royals but missed them. I got LUCKY and found an almost full size run at Shiekh Shoes. Use code GETITNOW & save 20%. The links are below

JCII White Royal

JCII Black Red

I love these things. Wore them today for the 1st time to KOP mall (picked up Zoom Flight 95 & Air Max Sensation). No one knew what they were in FTL or Villa. I'm definitely gonna get the JCIII when they release. Hope the links help some out.

welcome back @05FordGT  and great to hear you're enjoying the J.C II -- I would almost push you to try playing in them just once to see what you think.  Heard great things about the TP9 though and hard to break from reliable.
