Would have been 10x's better if they were red instead of neon green but that's still not saying much. Still curious to see other colorways though...

tinker lost his damn mind
and the f is he wearing?
Revisionist history
Now the XX's are loved
What was the name of these shoes again?
All Star. Colorway.
When you woke up and put that quarter in to challenge the god body did you realize you were gonna lose ?
I doubt it so let me pick you apart right quick,
.
Bolded line 1.
Sneakerheads mess with great new designed shoe is the reason why lebrons and KDs new sigs outsell the jordan sigs by almost double. The shoes look great and perform great I dont know too many people who do that psuedo high fashion retro crap thats all over the place I find it tacky and not very well done. If you noticed kids are buying up the Lebron X and are gonna eat up the KD when they drop the guard has shifted in sneakers now son .Kids hoop and cop the new LeBrons and KDs I see these shoes at pickup games at the rec not jordans. The only jordan I see are 12s out their and 14s because they hold up longer.
Boldded line 2
Jordan Brands have always provided top of the line style and performance 90 percent of the jordan catalog is athesticaly pleasing and are great to hoop in. Even the 2012 look good on foot barring the brogue shoe toebox that shoe doesn't look that bad it just was priced out of range for the main consumer of sneakers which are teenagers not old farts who want to go play recball every 2 weeks on their day offs with their "boys".
If you paid attention nike tried to push that nike+ crap for 250 this summer and the press tore them a new one they got eaten alive because it was just too damn high for the average consumer.The average high schooler and college player who takes bball seriously and actually plays at a higher level than you rec guys can't afford and doesnt need a bunch of tech in shoe to run off the court chances are he has developed his own routine and his own setup to do drills and improve. 250 for a shoe is unreasonable and down right ridiculous .If you hoop and take it seriously you can swap out some insoles into a pair of hyperdunks and get great comfort for a reasonable price or if you want a bit of both go grab my boy drose shoes. Those are very nice and give you the miadidas program. The media and public outrage made them significantly drop the price on their shoes to a reasonable level yet
250 plust tax comes out to around 275 if Im hooping i can go get a great pair of shoes some insoles shorts and a ball for less than 200 . This isn't about performance this about a gimmick price slapped onto a gimmicky uninspired shoe and the price is their to make folks who spend the money feel like they are getting a premium product.
da first color was meh, even da stealths were lookin type garbage too, thenHow many of you were on here when pics of the XX dropped?
People were calling for Tinker's head.
Maybe Tinker is an avid snorkeler and these snorkel boots were the inspiration.
fixed.^ Nike Shox VC 1
da first color was meh, even da stealths were lookin type garbage too, then
at da last minute they changed da colorblocking and materials at da last minute, and it made a HUGE difference.
to this day, da stealth XX's were da very last non retro to sell out on da first day with ZERO hype, no limited gimmicks, no nothing.
da XX's in da CDP pack looked like da sample stealths (which were garbage) and thus were hated.
