Backwards Jumpman on the original 7s, 9s and 11s was always dumb to me... flipping them to face the correct way on the 9s and 11s was actually one of the rare improvements JB made imo.
Having said that, it wouldn't work quite as well on the 7s...
Tinker should have designed them better in the first place lol.
Yeah, that's understandable. I just think the jumpman should go with the flow of the shoe, If its slanting left, then the Jumpman should be facing left. I mean if you really think about it, the correct way would be facing left, as that would be the ball in the right hand, which is how Jordan would dunk in the game. I know the picture shows him doing it with the left hand, but he rarely dunked with the left. But if you were at a game sitting on the either side of the court, and he dunked with the right hand, those on one side would see him facing right, and those on the other side would see him facing left. That's how I view the sides of the shoes. If there is a jumpman on the outer of the left shoe, I want it facing left, and facing right on the right shoe.
