Air Jordan XXXVII (37) first look…

[AIR J XIII]

What about the plastic inside the heel nylon bootie? It’s digging into both of my feet terribly,

I felt the internal heel counter, but nothing digging

Look dece but looked better from a blurry distance lol

 

[dmoney23444]

I’m so pissed about this sharp *** plastic piece. I can’t wear these at all.

 

[wizards23brown]

What plastic piece?

 

[jshortt]

What plastic piece?

I think they're talking about the piece that covers the foam on the heel.

 

[dmoney23444]

I think they're talking about the piece that covers the foam on the heel.

Nah. Inside the heel huarache style sleeve there’s a hard piece of plastic that wraps around your ankle. In my pair it’s super sharp and feels like a knife.

As sharp as the top of the LBj19's?

Feels sharper lol. but it has the neoprene or whatever it is covering it. Doesn’t make a difference for me though. It digs staright into the ball of my ankles on both shoes

 

[James_O]

Feels sharper lol.

No issue with the heel at all for me and I’ve been hooping in these consistently. Only problems I’ve had was the shoe digging into the arch (which has completely gone away after break in) and the heel cushion not improving much. It’s possible the shoe just might not be for you which sucks because that’s been the case for me with a lot of recent releases.

Is there plastic inside the neoprene that you skip your heel into? I feel like there’s just too much of it in my pair.

 

[dmoney23444]

I’m trying to mess with it and bend it to loosen it up a little and see if it helps any. Just certain movements I feel it digging.

Wow. I didn't feel anything like that when I was wearing mine around.

I don’t feel any plastic in all honesty. Are you talking about the part right beneath the padding in the back of the shoe? The heel counter has me feeling completely locked in.

FWIW the Kobe 9 elite highs used to give me the exact problem you’re describing. When id make certain movements the part I’m pointing at used to cut up my ankles on both feet and both sides of my foot. They were unusable for me and only the lows worked for my feet.

Yep the plastic piece inside of where my finger is. With certain movements it just goes right into my foot.

One of my friends at wednesday pickup had the 37s on today and I must admit they look pretty solid on-feet. He was playing in 36 lows prior so I asked if the 37s felt like a “let-down” after the 36 and, shockingly, he said he prefers the 37s way more. For those of you who have hooped in both, do the 37s have a better court feel? That was something he said that I did not expect, so curious on the community’s thoughts…

 

[sicembu]

Idk I think they look like sh*t in person and better in photos. They feel like a thin hard cast.

 

[joex]

I could see the 37s having more court feel. I will give them a try on heavy heavy discount.

It’s crazy because I feel the same way too. You don’t have the issue of the lenoweave tearing your toes, it feels wider but still secure at the same time, and 0 heel slip whatsoever.

I think the 36 still has the better cushion setup and traction feels slightly more tackier, but the fit on the lows is off. Lots of people complaining about the inconsistency there. Personally I think the 37 is a good buy at a discount but there’s enough there to warrant a retail purchase still

Just played in these, Hare 37s. I had the 34s, skipped 35s and 36s, and these remind me so much of the 34s. Light, bouncy, 9/10 traction. I think they perform well out of the box so I can't wait until these break in.
