What upcoming retro releases are the best for actual basketball?

[d723]

As an avid pick up ball player I'm looking for something a little more stylish than my current Hyperdunks. I don't come around this forum often but Ifigured you guys would have a good idea on best mixture between performance and style.

Thanks.

Retro releases? Well, the Air Jordan XII are pretty good sneakers for basketball use in my opinion.

The black/red XII came out today, and the white/white came out last week (I believe).

Also, the Space Jam XI is about to release on the 24th of December.

I wouldnt want to ball on those spacejams. theyre too nice.

I think any of the XIIs would be nice to ball in.

I got a rising sun I play ball in.

16.5 seem to be pretty good.

I agree, but we don't know wat ur style is. but plz try not to make taboo threads like this again

i would go with 16.5..those other ones are made more for a fashion statement than ballin these days. its more about whats more comfortable and what you canbreak ankles in without breakin your own ankles. i would go for 16.5.
