If they do get retroed, I'd love to see a black/red release.

Don't know why some are saying "NO PLEASE DONT RELEASE THOSE JUST MORE AJ 1-14 PLEASE!"
Come one, if you don't like them just don't buy. Other's want these badly because they either
missed out during OG release or their OGs are worn out.
Both Air Jordan XVII and XVIII sold well despite of the high retail price, also because MJ
graced them on the NBA hardwood, and they are interesting looking shoes.

I'm happy for the people that want these. The xvii aren't very comfortable for my fat foot so ill probably pass. I am upset that the xvi aren't getting retroed first though.

Your right about the college blues, but I'm sure the 061 colorway is gonna be black and silvers. I know 6 usually denotes red, but there have been exceptions. The white and reds would be a 106/116 type color code.

Yeah, thats true.... But I was going off of the colors he told me, he said Black, Red, and Silver...... He also said one was an OG color and one was a new color.... So just me guessing im thinking the white, black, and blue is the OG.... If they are bringing back the XVII they have to start with a bang and whats better that the very 1st XVII.... to get the hype up.. We shall see tho..

I also informed him the the box has the old style box tag and he said they were in the making a few months ago before the new box tag came about.....
Now most of the XVII's came in a suitcase except for the XVII lows, so to make sure its not the lows, this box says XVII LOW
The top pic has to be the coppers not the 2013 release. Although I do not own the coppers (because I did not like them at the time), they did come in the Jordan face box. I have all the lows, white/college blue and CDP. Also, if it was the 2013 release, it would have said Air Jordan XVII (17) RETRO.Edit: Never mind, It might just be the 2013 release. Coppers had XVII+. My fault.

Not sure how to feel about this but ok. I don't think I'll cop, my OG University Blues are still in great shape. I bet the beasts would be ALL over these
. I paid $75 for my pair.

Patiently waiting on a reliable source,I'm calling duck tales for now.
BTW,why would JB retro the 17 before the 16?

I like the lows, the highs, not so much
The only thing good about the highs IMO was the case.

Calling ducktales... and that picture of the box label doesn't prove anything IMO.
That label is clearly the same style as the "face-box" Jordan box labels... which is a style they haven't made since approximately 2005. There is no reason that it would be brought back now... even to house a "sample" or whatever they are. Makes no sense.
Also, a few notes about that label:
- I have never seen an authentic Jordan box label have both the "roman numeral" and numeric number both listed for a signature/numbered pair from the Air Jordan line. It is either one or the other.
- It appears that there is too large of a gap/space between the "n" on Jordan to the "XVII"
- The font looks suspicious/small (when compared to labels of that era)... could just be the angle, but I don't know about it.
