Yep. 23's are beautiful. Everything past the 23 (except 29) have been forgettable for me.

I've decided I'm gonna get these but not on RD. Will wait for a slight sale or to see what other colors we will be getting.

Though I haven't copped a new signature shoe in YEARS, I will say that these are pretty exciting.

wrong. 21s are flames 22s are trash although I warmed up to the white 22 ever so slightly. still probably wouldn't cop them no matter the price. not sure why you think they fit "massive" but I'm guessing you tried wearing them loosely for casual wear? tie them correctly and they will hug your ankles nicely

what was wrong with the outsole? mine is still 100% intact after hooping indoors and tons of casual wear outdoors. It's supposed to be squiggly like a dna helix or whatever it's called. the 21 had AMAZING traction. I also had the team concept which had the same traction pattern, hooped in those a full season with no complaints. the dna pattern was a huge success traction wise

there's more design in tinkers signature than there is on the rest of the upperI wouldn't have been mad had they dropped with tinker's name on at least 1 pair.... this pic.... it's so much win right here

The 30 IMO is the best Jordan looks wise since 18.

I'd argue for the XX3 but not many others

Wrong lol.. Massive as in gigantic shoes, awful looking shape that is the opposite of Jordan signature sleekness, busted or tied up shoes still swimming on the dogs, the ankle pod was super generic and offered nothing for comfort in fact was annoying feeling the circle infection under the heel

I'm only talking casual use. I loved the 20 when they dropped years ago. Had the first CW. Now today, that strap looks totally ridiculous IMO. Same with 19 and that finger trap design. 23 was ok but didn't do anything for me. 21, 22 and everything after 23 IMO was just ugly.

The 20s were great at the time, really was a wild looking shoe when it debuted and I liked that a lot was a tribute design for sure and I had several cws.. Having said that they were hot boxes on the feet with zero ventilation, the ankle strap never felt comfortable casually no matter how loose you had it, IPS felt awesome underfoot

Personally I'm going to cop at the very least the launch colorway of the shoe. I missed out on the launch colorway of the 28 and almost the 29 so I learned my lesson. Whatever dope comes after that will have to be on discount. Hopefully they play around more with the Flyweave on this model because they promised to do more of that on the 29 and didn't. I still need Photo Reels.

Yeah, they dropped the ball in that area for sure. I only bought the All-Star pair and the Photo Reel's.

the xx1 and xx2 were both fire. the last of the great air jordan line however the cushioning and stability on both were garbage that heel pod interchangeable crap was stupid
the xx3 was pretty garbage. it looked like that one allen iverson reebok shoe i think it was the answer 8...

I also like how the xx9 look and feel especially the team orange colorway. But for that exact reason I feel extremely disappointed that the XXX is just a remix of the XX9! It looks nearly the same! I was anxious and excited about the XXX I really was but after seeing the photos and realizing how it's just a different version of the previous model my excitement died.

I guess the signature means he agrees with the mid/outsole..... Tinker is getting older now NT...... Where is architecture,culture grabbing,Fun what the hell was that conversation pieces Tinker.??? Man I miss the old Hatfield...... Those are the designs I want real inspiration...... This is ok but IMO its not Tinker Hatfield.....

On a side note I seen a lot of comment here saying how everything over 14s is trash or how 21s or 22s were trash or how 23s were awful....
1) Most ppl nowadays like the 21s, especially for the red colorway. I've never felt the 21s and I still don't really like them and the red suede doesn't make them heat to me.
2) The design of 22s was very appealing to me from day 1 and it still is till this day. I felt like that was one of the best looking bball shoe and I still think that way. Just love the black suede version although it got mad hot inside those babies.
3) Black 23s were dope to me as well I bought the whole environment friendly manufacturing ish they were selling back then and I thought it must have been a very advanced shoe but aside from that I enjoyed its aesthetics. That's why I still have them DS in box (the transparent plastic part starts to mate real bad though)
What I'm trying to say that it's kinda ignorant to say that everything 'new' coming from JB (after 14s) is wack. The 18s were fire to me as well! Nevertheless I can't seem to shake the feeling that lately the designers are not pushing the envelope as the way they were a few years back. When the 'new' model was actually new and not an slightly updated version of the previous model...
