In the other thread, they said it was delayed because of the insoles. For what reason, I don't know.

Koreans didn't approve of Rising Sun being used on the insole and boycotted it.

this response just had me fall out of my seat with laughter! Lovin' how NT can always bring a smile to my face in the most bizarre ways!

I'm always amazed at how little attention the horrid history between Japan and Korea gets outside of that section of Asia...

Like, Koreans were conquered, enslaved, raped, and treated like less than dirt by the Japanese in ways that some academics would say was worse than what whiteeuropeans/Americans did to Africans/African Americans.

And no, I'm neither Korean nor Japanese.

 

[mikkol109]

hah.. i'm still shipping them out under retail! No point in delaying this release

Wednesdays would be nice. I know some people have to work so that would work out for me.

 

[antalonboubmpo]

Theyre changing the insole from the red rising sun to a red jumpman

^This is true, unfortunately, Jordan Brand doesn't care about anybody but themselves .........& Kanye West

The idiots at Jordan Brand don't even know the history behind their own company! They don't even know what games Michael Jordan played in or how manypoints he scored in the 1990s.

....we can't seriously expect them to know the history of imperialist Japan from over a hundred years ago.

Unfortunately, all they do and need to know is that anything with a Jumpman on it is certain to fly off the shelves to brand-captive hypebeastsworld wide...

Sad but true

[frenchblue23]

Very true though, if Jordan Brand doesn't know jack about MJ's correct stats, there's no way in hell they will know about World History.
