The first initial pics and the final release picture debut's are always the most entertaining time of the year on Niketalk for me.
The complete 180 that people do after what seems like such a "final answer" from them always amazes me...
Just sit back and WAIT till you judge the shoe. I can guarantee you that there's a ton of you who will be salivating once more pics come out. It happens EVERY year!
regardless of the final product the price is still steep.
i really wish jordan would bring out a really off the wall shoe.
somthing that would be shocking when you see it.
yup...ur right...from these pics has reebok splattered all over it huhOriginally Posted by CIDMAN911
You get the sense that an actual engineer designed the prosthetic leg being mimicked here. Why they thought they could simply slap that on to the heel and have it work the same way is simply beyond me. That's like affixing a pair of wings to the family truckster with a hot glue gun and assuming that you've invented a flying car. The prosthetic leg was well engineered for its intended purpose. Slapping a curved scrap of rubber on the heel of a shoe and gluing it to some polyurethane as a cheap analogue probably won't achieve quite the same effect for basketball players. I'd love to be proved wrong. To me, it just looks like a repackaged shox column that, like the prosthesis it emulates, was clearly not designed with lateral stability in mind.
A while back someone asked why there handn't been a Jordan x Shox collaboration and oddly enough we're seeing it now. The heelconstruction is very similar to the Shox construction - maybe even Impax (horrid Shox knockoff). Well said Method Man and I didn't want to quote yourentire post, but your comments are spot on.

Well it's the morning and they don't look any better. Thought I was seeing things a little blurry last night but JB what have you done. I really hopethe final shoe looks ALOT better than this. Well I'm 40 I guess it's time to hang the shoe game up.
