Ant man’s, Lukas, and Tatums shoe are the most worn shoe I see outside of Nike basketball. I see more kids hooping in retros than the air Jordan 37 or air Jordan 38

lol yeah well take the old grump’s hot take over the guy actually coaching kids every dayAnt man’s, Lukas, and Tatums shoe are the most worn shoe I see outside of Nike basketball. I see more kids hooping in retros than the air Jordan 37 or air Jordan 38
I mean, I coach kids and this take isn't as far off as you think lol.lol yeah well take the old grump’s hot take over the guy actually coaching kids every day![]()
I’m suspect of anyone saying there’s a lot of Tatums on the court. And especially suspect of someone claiming a brand new model that dropped 3 mos ago in low numbers is all over courts.I mean, I coach kids and this take isn't as far off as you think lol.
You talking about Ant's being dropped in low numbers? Their stock may have been selling on line but there's good allocation actually out in stores. I have a handful of kids in my PE classes, What is athletics 6th grade class, handful in 7th and 8th grade athletics class.I’m suspect of anyone saying there’s a lot of Tatums on the court.

More of NTers taking their tiny sample size of hooping at the Y as indicative of the market![]()

These would have been better than all those white based versions..
Don't give JB any ideas, or we are gonna see the 40 take inspiration and design cues from MJ sticking his tongue out on while going for a layup or a tough shotThat white piece on the sole and the red line above it makes it look like a tongue sticking out lol
The first cw didn’t even drop until Christmas so someone saying they’re seeing a lot of AE1’s on court with kids has me suspect since for many parts of the country basketball season was already half over for fall/winter leagues and school ball. A sample size of a few mos. But yes, I did read they produced the AE1 in modest numbers not knowing how well it would do so that comment surprised me more.You talking about Ant's being dropped in low numbers?

It's not really a small sample size from what I'm seeing though. I coach in Houston in the 3rd largest district in the state, where we have 120,000+ students. My actual kids play in leagues too and see what's out there.
lol sponsored shoes aren’t the same. Cooper Flagg was wearing 38’s in the JB Classic Sunday tooA lot of adidas schools and AAU teams wear AE’s. I went to the McDonald’s all American game a couple weeks ago. ( I’m also in Houston) Cooper Flagg and all those boys were in AE’s as well. But I digress.
Ok I’ll give you that lol. But yeah I’ve seen the battlefield AE’s on court. But definitely more of the Tatum 1’s and Ja’s and Lukas for sure.lol sponsored shoes aren’t the same. Cooper Flagg was wearing 38’s in the JB Classic Sunday too![]()
Tinker already did with the 15Don't give JB any ideas, or we are gonna see the 40 take inspiration and design cues from MJ sticking his tongue out on while going for a layup or a tough shot
How much cooler would the 38 fundamentals have looked with three X's four llll with a slash through it and then lll. Smooth2three get on thatI think they've gotten away from trying to resemble past sigs that coincide. The 38 didn't really resemble the 8 outside of the tongue depending on the colorway.
Man I hoop on the regular. I hang with nothing but hoopers. Nobody is wearing these sig models like that. What state are you guys in? I see 38’s mainly in college games and NBA games. But if I see a pair in a youth game or at a LA Fitness is definitely rare. Y’all gotta stop the cap.
Not sure I entirely follow your logic. Kids don’t want the new sigs because MJ is old and they didn’t see him play and they don’t care about him, but they buy the retros of shoes that are famous because of the same guy? Is the thought that they at least know who he is and only buy shoes he played in? Or that they buy the retros because some of those shoes have become pop culture staples on their own whereas the new models don’t have that going for them?With kids they don’t want a new shoe from a guy who is 60. Same way we wouldn’t have considered anything other than J’s in the 80’s and 90’s. That’s a big part of it. In reality there aren’t a lot of grown men buying performance basketball shoes
