The Official Jordan XXXI Thread

[jerseysauce]

Traction on the lows initially is abysmal. I was sliding all over the place. They get better after a little bit of running in them. For reference I have the "sheen" colorway. Very comfortable but the traction is not getting it done. If the next time I hoop the traction has broken in any/improved these are going back.

Yeah if you wear thick socks, go half size up.
But also for the Why Nots def go up half a size they are def tighter round the sides.

 

[bubblygummy118]

For the Why Nots, did most of you go half size up?

I stayed the same size because I had no choice.
I'm a sz 13 and the Why Not"s were not available in a 13.5.

However, these are not as roomy as the regular 31's so
jumping up a 1/2 size is probably a good idea.

The signature on the bottom of the Fine Prints is MJs


Navy lows not considered a UNC shoe, but I feel like they woulda matched these practice shorts pretty well. I was hoping they would eventually sell these (but they never did):

Luckboxed these today. Patience finally paid off!

Ah thanks man ! Because im not a wide footer but majority has said the same about going half size up. Was unsure incase if its too roomy since im always 10.5 . Both 29's and 31's that is.

That's a great price. One of my favorite pairs of 31s.

Anyone else here with a slim foot played in the why nots? Is it a must to go true to size? Really need your advice. Im 10.5 in my 29's. Dont own any 30's.

 

[si3n4]

I haven't played in a pair but I did try them on in the store. I'm a 10 in the 29s and a 10 in the Why Nots fit me the same. Tooling is the same on the 29s, so I would assume you should be fine with a 10.5 in the Why Nots.

 

[ibolazzz]

^ +1 The Why Not's fit exactly like the 29's to my feet.  I own and love both  However, I do have a slightly wider foot.

Catching up on the thread, great pics of the Black Cats and Space Jams @bigj505

Those are two of my favorite colorways of the XXXIs.

Own those two as well as the Fine Prints.

You know I'm still in my feels about not having the fine prints

Wide feet ok with these shoes? TTS or half size up?

TTS for all

but Why Not's are narrower. Which is cool, because that is one thing that is different from the XXXI being wide as opposed to the typical Lebron, Kobe and KD.

I hardly know anything when it comes to samples and PE's are they worth anything? Should I keep them?

With the only difference being the soles, they're not worth much more than the general release pair, especially in a size 16. I sent you a Private Message.

theyre worth at least a couple hundred more than the GR. Very nice PE.

 

[earlgotsole]

Anyone know where I can find Banned 31's size 13 near retail?

 

[bubblygummy118]

So is it safe to say the why nots sizing warrant to go half size up?

 

[rainking]

Has anyone bought a pari of the black/sheen (pinkish) lows? I don't think I've seen one real life photo of that pair in this thread. Something about them appeals to me, though I'm not biting at the $160 retail price. But curious to see images other than Nike's official shots. Haven't come across them, oddly, in any stores near me in SoCal that I frequent.
