    so what's the story on the tongue? does it still flip down to provide breathable msh? or did they scrap that idea?

    the tounge has a flap or sorts that you can put the laces behind, pretty much on top just for the top 3 lace loops or something, which is why we see that flap at the top of the toung that holds the larger (less noticible) flap in place with a snap like closure.

    Ahhh! Finally a refined pair!! These look WAY better than the original pics, and it now looks complete. The white and blue pair really show off the details, and the back TPU mold is crisp! Now we finally have a shoe wortthy of the Jordan name. Not bad at all. Not a bad "back to basics" shoe at all. I thought I was going to have to stop buying Jordans based on the first photos, but I guess the tradition will continue.

    Peace.

    to quote babyjordan0312

    "Just so you know.

    The Lace Cover flips open ( At least on my pair of samples. )

    It is used to hide the lace knots / lace cover.

    It only covers approx. the first 3 sets of eyelets

    It is to be used in a way that the Jordan VI is designed.

    It still is a partial lace cover.

    It does make it look a little "cleaner" "

    Has anyone else noticed that the midsole looks really thick, and that the arch looks really, really high?

    I think the pictures Sunggles is showin' us are youth sizes, that might explain why the sole looks thick or something.

    nonetheless, its crazy how good this shoe looks in youth sizes, I bet it looks even better in adult sizes! the proportions have to be better

    Part of me just wants to order these from the ES for half off, but the other part wants to try them on and lace em up.

    I held a fake pair in my hands the other day, besides that quality on the fakes is gettin better and that is the closest I'll probly get to a pair of XXI's right now, they look like a big pair of socks. Aside from their performance aspects, they look really plain.

    Those white/red/blacks grow on me everytime I see them. I'm trying to hold back, but I dont know if i'm going to be able to.
    I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.

    I dunno about the blue laces, but beyond that, they look legit to me.

    The circle card with tha Jordan I-XXI makes me curious. Do we have confirmation on such card?

    But I just saw the pics on ebay and posted them here cuz they looked good to me

    I post here everyday it seems like. I can't help it, I love the XXIs. I did like the Red the most but now it is even for the Wht/Red-Blk and the Red. I won't pay 175 or 180 + tax cause I get the hookup. There aren't any shoes worth that much money!!!!!

    I have a question, does each color way of the XXI say something different behind the tongues?
