AJ XXX (30)

It is not far fetched at all of Nike/JB to see a design floating around and get inspired by it. That's how design works there are many inspirations. I have a bachelors in a design field and currently work in a design profession so I would consider myself a designer and I do not see 90% of your shoein the 29 at all. The midsole is completely different, no lace shroud, completely different collar shape, no similarity with the heel counter. You keep talking about the lines, yes they both are outlined to look like a shoe but the line similarity stops there. Put nearly every 3/4 high performance basketball shoe near each other and the general shoe shape will be similar because their designed to fit for a foot.

Also, your point of people seeing a similarity that have no interest in shoes. I would trust the eyes of an avid follower of shoes to see similarities as opposed to someone with no interest in shoes. Sneaker enthusiast have a vast knowledge of all types of shoes and understand the design and parts that make up said shoe. It doesn't make us biased it makes us knowledgeable. I'm not gonna take much from someone commenting on a Frank Lloyd Wright house who doesn't have a education or knowledge on design, I would rather hear what an architecture follower has to say because I know they will see the little things that others wouldn't.

If you want people here on NT to respect your views and opinions then your gonna have to respect that people see it differently, that doesn't make them a hater.
THANK YOU. This is basically what I was trying to say, but you said way better than I could

. This post should end the "Derelle" talk imo, let's get back to the 30.
 
Took me 3 minutes DADA+AJ 15 I admire your spirit but dont get all mad and start throwing insults when something doesn't go your way. This thread is to talk about an actual Jordan shoe.
You know that is nothing like what I designed but keep hating. look at what you did you just created something just to have something to say.  I'm laughing at all of you trolls because guess whose prototype the guy you all are enamored with said he liked?  So it's cool from here. I will just keep working hard to make it happen. While you sit on NT trolling all day.

If you got so much time on your hands. Take the shroud off my design. Lower the arch.  And raise a hill at the forefront. I bet you won't do that and see what you get.
 
 
I know the ones he liked were the prototype jesus Christ. I was talking about the drawing in terms of you claiming they stole 90% of your design which is HOGWASH. You sound delusional at this point. Literally nothing is similar from your rendering other than the jumpman and that's not even awfully close. Please direct me to these similar lines on the upper and midsole... there's literally not a single one, they don't exist. what dip upwards in the back? you kidding me right now? Like I mentioned earlier in the thread, the 29 has design cue's from the JORDAN 3... the dip you're referring to, the tongue, and a couple others... Not your crummy little rendering. If you were a true designer you would see that and stop claiming they copied your garbage. I'm so sick of hearing this "if you're a designer you see it" NONSENSE. First of all YOU AREN'T A DESIGNER... what do you design???? who do you work for? where did you go to school? you're as much of a designer as anyone else in this thread. "it's plain to see for somebody without bias"? HAHAHAHAHA dude you have extreme bias which is why you keep claiming this..... Some "non-designers" got you to believe jb copied your idea and now that's all you can see instead of what's actually there which is nothing similar to the 29.
You can call it what you want. Lets see you do any better. It's funny how people talk the most that can't do half of what the person they are talking about can. You can call my design garbage cause you are a fing hater but they were good enough to copy to make the 29s so that says a lot. It also shows that obviously I am a desingner or else there would be no reason to claim they look a like in the first place. If I wasn't a designer I wouldn't have people wanting to buy my designs. I wouldn't have Tinker saying they could be the next Jordan whether you think he was bsing or not. He said it not you or anyone else on here. So really yours and anyone else's opinion don't even matter in the slightest. 

Are you serious you can see the 3 but not my design? I see it for its worth. It's nothing you can tell me when I can see with two eyes and then you claim something is coming from the 3s and there is nothing you can compare with the 3s. The lines that flow across the upper of the 29 are the same as the way the black outline flows on my upper. Look at the way they flow up then swoop down around to the front. All you have to do is take the black off the upper of my shoes and continue with the line pattern and you got the SAME one on the 29s. The arch on the side if you lower it then is the same as the 29. The forefront if you raise it slightly then you get the 29. You take the shroud off you get the 29. You slide the large Jumpman to the back you get the 29. It's the same damn shoe. You guys are either blind or hating. It's all right there. People putting up shoes like Adidas, And 1 that don't look nothing like the 29s or my design so yeah I am going to defend myself against the attacks because they are not warranted.

Well I said my piece and that's as far as I'm gonna go. Guess my education and current profession don't make me a real designer since I don't see the similarities
Yep you are not the only educated one here. And it's ok you can

be a blind sheep somebody has to be. 
 
What happened to this thread? Pop in to see some AJ XXX news and there's nothing but the worst etch-a-sketch crayola bs I've ever personally seen with my own two eyes.

Guess I'll pop back in whenever all the amateur creative juices stop flowing...

you CAN'T be serious. at this point I think you might be trolling about the whole thing.... If you don't notice the collar/dip and the tongue are damn near identical to the Jordan 3, you have no business talking about JB ripping off a design. Here i'll highlight them so maybe you can see the obvious connection Mr. "Designer"

Those features are actually pretty close with the 13 as well, which I'm sure was also inspired by the 3. also the 11 i.e but that should be blatantly obvious as it's more or less a 3x11 mashup shoe.
Please tell me more about how much of a designer you are....

You asked for constructive criticism and critique. No where did I bash your designs I just said from my perspective I don't see the similarities. So I give the constructive criticism and I'm a blind sheep.
Yeah because you know what you are doing.  It's not hard to see. You are just piling on. Thats the easy route. Instead of being honest and saying how somebody could even make that statement. So all the people those who like Js and those who don't can see it then I have to say it's validity in my statement. And when you look at the differences I noted then you can see why I say 90% its the same.
