The Official Jordan XXXI Thread

All Stars have my attention.

I hope they get an EU release cause strong dollar/high shipping costs/grabby customs make importation a nightmare.

Wish CNY designs looked better, too boring IMO

 

[j23app]

As of now  "Chicago" 31 for 1/7 and the "Black/Royal" for 1/21, throw in the CNY seems like something has to shift.

i like the idea of a solid rubber outsole, be interested to see how they fair compared to the translucent ones.

The fakers have started making 30.5s

Any pics or a style code (or nickname) for the Black/Royal pair so I can update the OP?

Is there an official nickname for the Bulls colorway? I read "Chicago Alternate" somewhere but I don't know if that's official.

anyone seen any cw at outlets yet?

A friend of mine saw the N7 cw at the outlet, but only sz 9 and 10. I'm guessing they were most likely returns.

i think if you see them at outlets, you can order your size for the outlet price. There was a name for this process... or i may be mistaken

Give me those all stars. Straight fire.

I'm liking the details on the ASG pair. Game time decision, I'm supposed to be slowing down in 2017.

So far the Chicago edition is the best release of the 31s!

Black/Royal 1/21/17 via J23

If these are just like the Banned but in blue that is a must cop.

If that's what the Royal pair ends up looking like...will be in consideration.

That PS is on point

Hopefully this becomes reality on that 1/27 release date

If the Royals look like that PS, INSTANT PURCHASE!!! Blue TOE & Jumpman is SICK!!!!

Some of the 31 colorways JB have been releasing lately are lazy as **** and has me scratching my head. That Black/Royal could be the best yet but I wouldn't be surprised if they found some way to screw it up. Well, we'll judge with our money.

I don't disagree with what your saying. But it could be argued that the Royal colorway I PS'd is extremely lazy. I mean literally the only difference between it and the Banned is that the red is flipped to blue haha. Looks good but still lazy. 

A positive is the differing pattern on the ASG compared to others. Maybe they will start mixing it up a bit with the flyweave pattern with future releases. This gives it limitless potential.

IMO the 31s look at their best when the colorway is "very simple" like the Banneds and the Fine Prints.

Once it does some crazy stuff like the Battle Greys, the Chicagos, the Supernovas (aka Knicks), the Rios, and even their rendition of the Shattered Backboards, then it is less appealing TO ME.  Other people will appreciate that ****, but I can't deal with them crazy colorways.

I can deal with the N7s and the upcoming "Black Toe-looking" colorway, they are a simple design to me in a sense.
