Shorts on backwards...  It happens...
  

I remember sportscenter making a big deal about this back when this happened....Apparently the shorts's logo was just stitched on the back by mistake. I'm pretty sure MJ would have noticed the drawstrings in his %**.

Usually he would debut a colorway that he did not wear before the Allstar game.
I remember he wore the black/royals in the sparring and photo sessions but switched
back to white/royal though.
I think he could have sported the white/reds or the white/black AJ 18.5.

He wore the white reds during the season for Wizards throwback night

^ You sure it's not '03 when the Cements came out? I have the white one and the grey one and I got them from eastbay. I swear it was '03 when I got them both. I could be wrong.

Anyone have that pic of MJ with the Wizards waving to someone at half court, and there was a huge debate whether the XI's he was wearing were Concords or Wizards PE's?

More like asking for the ball, not waving:

Oh, and BTW ... It's the lighting.

I know that mj wore several times the white/reds18 when the wizards wore the retro bulletsJerseys. But that was after the asg 2003 anyway.

Not sure if this has been answered but did MJ ever wear the Jordan 6 "Sport Blue" or "New Maroon" in a game?

MJ never wore these shoes in an NBA game...However, he wore the Sport Blues in Magic's All Star classic. Here's video of one of my all time favorite MJ dunks...Simply beautiful!

Having another argument with my friend about "SpaceJam" 11s...

We have already established that Money indeed rocked a pair of all black upper 11s with Concord accents, but what about in the movie itself?

My opinion is that the reason the "SpaceJam" nickname came about in 2001 with the initial release of the Air Jordan 11 Retro Black/white-varsity royal was in fact based off the c/w that he rocked in the movie itself, which must have had varisty royal on it to garner said nickname. Surely right?

My friend is saying that it's all hearsay and that the only reason they're called "SpaceJams" is because they're simply based off the c/w he actually wore in the movie, which would have simply been the '95 playoffs pair against the Magic.

So in other words, the 2001 first release of the "SpaceJams" is not actually the exact same c/w he wore in the movie, but a resemblance...

Thoughts? Opinions?

The pair in the movie has concord accents and are the real space jams. The retros just resemble them

^ The Jumpman on the heel looks more Royal Blue than Concord Purple!

 

[dankenstien88]

Thanks for the pics Attaq.

Did Jordan ever wear XI lows as a bull? Not the IE lows, but the regular XI lows similar to the below picture?

I know he wore them as a Wizard, but I'm curious if he ever wore them as a Bull. Pictures would be great if he did!

 

[RyGuy45]

damn

 

[the 718 truth]

Great topic, those lows are sick!
