The Real Story Behind the Air Jordan 25th Anniversary "White Collection" [COUNTERKICKS.com]

[solezprogression]

Yeah, I figured as much (and stated so in the original thread started about these).

 

[geegee]

that would have been wack. with the exception of a few pairs.

 

[dghost]

^^ exactly

 

[dendanskesimon]

only thnig that doesnt make sense is that theres an all white XI in that line up

 

[brilliant]

^it's for display purposes. they colored up the entire set in white.

 

[aphexacid]

Well, there you go - for all the folks that thought they would actually do this.

terrible idea.

 

[sosmoove]

Those XX3's look nice

 

[riverxbear]

good jordans have no buisness being all white. leave that to the cocaine ups

 

[moelest]

GREAT!

 

[dcortes23]

thanks for sharing!

 

[bundy9]

nice info and pics...

 

[skep]

ah man... i liked the idea, oh well. interesting to hear the story behind it

 

[str1nger]

This is a good thing, and makes a lot more sense than the original stories, but I still think they should release them in some super-limited fashion, maybejust make a handful of pairs for some of the more famous names in customization to have fun with. If they were GR's it'd be terrible, people ruiningtheir kicks right and left and making fake-loooking "customs". If it were done right though, this could produce some interesting things if nothingelse.

Pretty much, this is one situation where I would completely understand highly limited production numbers. These are the kind of shoe that is only going toTRULY appeal to a small group of heads. A lot of people were initially saying they liked some of them, would cop them, etc., but things would be a lotdifferent when you picked it up/saw them in the store. I think the concept is cool and a lot of them look good too, but envision actually holding a pair awhiledown the road. I know personally, I'd be thinking.. "Ehh, yeah, these are cool, but I have the same shoe in so many better colorways, whybother?" It's just not rational.

This was a bad idea from the start. I'm glad it's just a rumor.

 

[cucumbercool]

I would not have bought them if they did release.

 

[auright]

thanks for posting those pics and putting that rumor to bed. now let's put all the other rumors to bed also.

 

[716kix]

yea i doubt they would even attempt to do the 1-23 thing again after the whole CDP fiasco

[prettymack1989]

i'd much rather get a pair of white on white air force ones for way cheaper than to pay whatever price they decide to make these jus for them to get dirty.but they are nice as hell
