from casual wear? thats crazy. I wonder how many pairs Westbrook gone through
My zoom bag popped on my almost new xx8 se! I bought them, kept them on ice for a minute, wore them for a month of casual wear and this happened. My 2 year manuf window ended yesterday too! What can i do, if theres anything? I am so disappointed right now!!! Never abused them, almost new and this happened smh....
Many of the shrouded versions weren't produced in huge numbers, especially the launch colorway (black/electric green/icy sole) those are very hard to come by these daysWhere these a top seller. I can't seem to find any of the OG color way
me too. me too...I'm mad I didn't cop when it dropped
I have 2 pcs which I used for balling
Just picked up a pair of new/dead stock 28 SEs in Black / Atomic Mango. Was very hesitant due to all the zoom bag issues and since the shoe is certainly nearing 2 years old, but at the price I got em, was worth the risk.. I hope. Strictly for balling. Replacing Curry 2s in my rotation since they make my feet ache after a couple hours.. good riddance.
Does anyone still play in their XX8 and zoom hasn't popped? I have a DS black/volt, debating if I should sell or just play in it.
Yes I play in the XX8's and the SE's weekly. Only the cement XX8's zoom bag popped so those have been retired. They had so many miles on them I'm not surprised they lasted that long. But my carbon fiber's are still holding up fine as well as the SE's. Play in them or if they are a size 11 let me have them.
Dang came here late.I play 1-2x a week. Prob rotate these with the 31's. After reading stories of it popping after playing in it 10x makes me not want to risk it. I'm assuming it happened to a small % 28's.

Love the camos on 28SE, and looked like the zoom unit really gives output (makes you jump higher)
Hey that is my dream since I was 16. Nike shox VC, Forefoot Air max (like Air Max 95), Zoom Flights, I thought those could make me jump higher
Now everywhere on eBay is like $100+
I doubt Jordan 29 will give me the same output
I've balled in the 28, 29 and 31.
The 28 has the softest cushioning for sure. Both zoom bags popped after 3 months and i only made some shoot arounds in them!
29 is more stiff in cushioning but also more durable gladly.
The 31, while they have a full length zoom unit feels more stiff than the 29 but also provides best in terms of overall stability, ankle support and foot lockdown.
I personally like 29 and 31 most to ball.
Are the zoom bags guaranteed to pop at some or have some people had them last?
I have 3 DS pairs (2 bamboos and a green came) that I am debating whether to sell them or take a risk and play in them.
Thank you, seems like it's a gamble. I'd be fine if they popped after a year and getting good mileage out of them but if it happens in the first few weeks I will be bummed out. Especially since the warranty period is overI went through 3 pairs. Green and Blue camos, and Jokers. Green popped first week or two. I warrantied up with Nike and got a Blue pair that lasted plenty and didn't pop - it was still in sell-able condition so I sold them a couple years ago. Jokers lasted me over a year. By the time they popped, they were already toast anyway. So, from my experience 1 of 3 was damaged early on. They will inevitably pop I think but like the Joker pair I had, they were beat by the time they popped.
Thanks for the tip. I was considering it but you're right it's not a good idea. The outdoor court I go to doesn't even have a smooth surface, it's grainy pebble like. It would rip these to shredsMake sure you don’t play outdoors
My friend was playing in them when they dropped. Was ok but the bubbles popped when outdoors. I don’t think it’s the uneven or pebbles. Possibly the harder surface.Thanks for the tip.
