Another the radar Jumpman release...can’t find these online anywhere. Hows the cushioning? Zoom or Air?
Incredibly sturdy and comfortable, not completely sure of tech specs

Thanks bro
Yeah, and I’ve seen this before. Some stores did the same thing with the Quick 6’s. I just don’t get the need to raise the price $10 on cult classics that will be among the first to be discounted. But then again FNL is the only one with these out so far, I think.MSRP, S = Suggested

Same set up as the Quick 23. Forefoot Zoom and heel Air.

Oddly enough, the XV have the Air Jordan aura but the Swift 6 do not. I still perfer the Swift 6.I'm going to swing by my closest FNL after work tomorrow. Can't get these out of my head now. Hope they have them even though I know I should just wait for the online drop and inevitable discounts.
SO, if these had been the actual Air Jordan 15, would anyone have complained? Compared to the real 15? I didn't think so.

Btw any news on other colors?
We can come up with all kind of hypotheticals. What if the XIV and XV were reversed? What if MJ hit the last shot wearing the XV's? These nuances would've changed everyone's perception of the shoe. This is entirely my opinion, even though I have mentioned this previously and others have agreed with me that the XV looks like an Air Jordan and not a Team Jordan. When I look at a retro card, the XV does not stick out like a sore thumb, it blends right in.I hear you but ... really? The AJ 15 is so bad. Tinker even knows it's trash (watch the Netflix Abstract episode on him). Perception and history goes a long way. BUT ... if we had a time machine and could reverse reality to where these Swift 6s were originally the annual Air Jordan and the 15s were the team shoe that year, would anyone now be saying it should have been different? NO way.
But I am aware that's just my opinion. What I do know is, I was there in 99-00, and the 15s were a joke. We all laughed at them like, WTF is THAT? Marketing goes a fair long way, so if they tell you that's THE Jordan, then it is so. But if "they" told you the Swift 6 was THE Jordan, and the actual 15 was the team shoe, I am confident the views on it today would be a bit different. No one will ever convince me the 15 looks better than these Swifts. Swifts are sick especially from that era. Actual 15s are still awful LOL
Well WTF is going on here. Just hit my nearest FNL. Sold out of sz 11, 11.5, and only had one 10.5. I could’ve done the 10.5 except I couldn’t zip them all the way. Heading to another mall FNL. But I was shocked LOL
First few jumpmans SlickI’m all over these if I see them, went to both of my FNL’s and didn’t see them. Always wanted these, I have a thing for the first few Jumpmans

I agree that it is among the worst, but I think it has more of the Air Jordan aura than the Swift 6. The Swift 6 screams "Team Jordan".LOL if you say so. I think the 15 is one of the worst designs of all time, but it's all just personal preference and opinion.
15s loosened up like how you would wear 13s plus some nice jeans look so goodI hear you but ... really? The AJ 15 is so bad. Tinker even knows it's trash (watch the Netflix Abstract episode on him).
