First it was the Motorsports, now Im lookin at eastbay thinking about ordering the Laker 1 lows, and I see that the size only goes up to 12.

Whats the deal behind this? Do they not care about people who wear anything larger than a 12? Doesnt make sense at all.

Thoughts?
 
JB did make the Motorsports in sizes larger than 12. Sizes 12.5, 13, 14 and 15 were available here in Australia.
 
I understand what your saying. I would hate to not be able to get a shoe because it didn't release in my size. I guess JB just thinks that there isn'ta strong enough market for those shoes for sizes greater than a 12. Makes me glad that I wear a 12.
 
I am a size 13 and was really mad to here the Motorsports didn't come in my size, now I must find a Canadian released version to complete my Black FridayXX3 set
 
they made them yes, but the quantities were minimal. Those sizes didnt release online.

As much as i love jordans, this combined with the terrible quality of the CDP 11's , is really making me consider not buying another pair from them, butlike they would care with the revenue they still pull in.
 
wow... i had no idea. prolly got tired of yall bigfoot cats catchin deals in outlets bcuz nobody wears that size. nike is heartless like most big companieslol.
 
jb is losing money manufacturing big sizes since they are not a common size. jb thought these shoes would not sell good so they scrap the big sizes and sellthe common sizes that teenagers wear......
 
It's funny because MJ wore a size 13 and 13.5 in others but yet JB decides to limit bigger size people their opportunity to wear. Doesn't make sense atall...

yeah right? does nike/JB originated in AUSTRALIA?.. why larger sizes only in Australia, Canada & Europe not in US?.. im sure their largestconsumer is from US.. i agree this doesn't make any sense..
 
someone said that jordan brand is losing money making these huge sizes and there right, my boy got some nice blue x's at an outlet store for 20 bucks andhe is like a 16 or 17 i forget

yeah you said it, size 16-17. Those sizes rarely never sell because not a lot of people wear that big of a size. A size 12 is more common, idk whyJB did that though.

Good thing I'm a size 10.

ya but no spots i knew about had them. Even the big 3 online didnt have em. An no way im gonna pay more than retail for shoes that already cost185.

I do wear a size 12.5-13. It seems weird to cut those sizes because they are still somewhat common. anything above 13 would make sense but then again if I worethose larger sizes id be pissed.
