    ….to ben that says JB is lacking originality and is boring. thats dumb bc they know ppl like u (hipsters, hybeasts, so called sneaker heads, and bought all ur kicks last year bc it was the Cool thing to do) only want og color ways bc then even more comments will be on they should have sticked with the bred or w.e. og color u like. when jordan comes out with new shoes like the 22 23 and the yearly jordan shoes, yall hate on them, though they are one of the best shoes to hoop in. and if u want something differnt than the i-xxiii then cop those wack ass 6rings and AFJ’s or something. stop bloging about shoes, and rock shoes, fuck storing them or reselling them these aint baseball cards or stamps. to “L” ive been feeling the same way for a long time. like the shoe because u like the shoe, not to make up for ur lack of cool.

    to that guy “L”.

    -first of all, i dont know anyone who would hate on you for wanting to cop space jams. my advice is to cop 2 pairs. DS one and rock the others. its that simple. as long as jordan puts his retros out i’m going to buy them, and so will everyone else. jordan brand knows that, so they will keep making them as cheaply as possible to make a profit. if people can cut costs on you they will. some sneakerheads live in a fantasy world. just because you love a shoe, the makers are not going to go out of their way for quality. NO BRAND IS MAKING SHOES FOR THAT PURPOSE. that being said, i cant wait to double cop these, and til then i’ll be dreaming of 7 bordeaux’s, 6 infrareds, and bred(flu game) 12’s, and black/red/cement spiz’ikes. the fusions are an abomination, fyi. i feel you L

    no. fucking. way. copped.

  6. Posted by:L on July 17, 2009 at 11:21 pm

    ima say my peace and fuck yall who flame me i honestly dont care. 1 im coppin them. 2 for all the old heads and 13 year olds runnin their mouth on here about this and that just flamin the post talkin shit, i actually appriciate the fact that jordan does shit like this cuz im only 21 and in 2001 i wasnt old enough to cop these but def was a fan of space jam. so for jordan to be re-releasing this shoe is a great oppurtunity to cats who can appreciate the culture to cop somethin that in all honesty is just a dope shoe period, while all the while not flooding the game like these new hipster fucks. ill solely be coppin these wearin a max of 3 times and they get the grave treatment. its just a nice pick up to say i have them when ive never had em before. and for those who are gonna respond with “then get your paper right and cop the 01’s” and shit like that. your one of the main contributing factors to why theres the snobby stuck up prick asshole “shoe heads” and why theres cats like me who just appreciate shit for what it is and love the culture. nobody on earth could cop these and id still buy a pair solely based on the fact that its a dope lookin shoe. but i wont argue on quality. cmon JB this half ass shit is gettin old. real fast. and for god sake stop with the fusions. there horrible.

    Jordans have lost their originality a long time ago. there are so many re-releases and fusions that the real ones look fake. Ever since the original designers of jordans left, the sneakers have never gotten any better.

  15. Posted by:FEK on July 15, 2009 at 12:47 am

    again and again! 2012 a new release! lol

  16. Posted by:ben on July 15, 2009 at 12:24 am

    they’ll re-re-re-re-release 7 years from now and people will again act like its the better than the invention of the wheel or discovery of fire. along with every other pair of air jordans… because the brand lacks originality. boring boring boring boring boring boring boring boringboring boring boring boringboring boring boring boringboring boring boring boringboring boring boring boringboring boring boring boringboring boring boring boringboring boring boring boringboring boring boring boringboring boring boring boringboring boring boring boringboring boring boring boringboring boring boring boringboring boring boring boringboring boring boring boring

    I CANT WAIT FOR THESE SHYTZ TO DROP! I BEEN WAITIN FINALLY! I need three of these!

  18. Posted by:Starless No relation to Suge Knight on July 14, 2009 at 11:16 pm

    I think I paid like 125 maybe 150 back in 2001 when these dropped. So why would I pay 175 for a pair of space jams that will most likely be of inferior quality. Not to mention, Where is exclusivity any more? Quick strike my a** that clearly says 175 for the mens version which means they will drop for kids too. Nuff said! Jordan Brand please stop jerking the people.

    175!? Shakin my muthafuckin head.

    ^ your an idiot. :)

  21. Posted by:HypePatrol on July 14, 2009 at 9:26 pm

    being a limited quickstrike is the only plus. but i swear it’s officially hard too hard to tell weather jordans are real or fake these days. the quality of fakes got way better and the real ones got way worse and they just decide to meet at the same point. look at them! ugh the patent leather is so sloppy im gonna throw up. you people settle for less too much. im boycotting on j’s. only buy OG’s and early retro’s

  22. Posted by:obatron1 on July 14, 2009 at 8:49 pm

    hmmm….a quickstrike..I wonder how hard it will be to get a size 16 let alone 2 pairs.

  23. Posted by:foshuer on July 14, 2009 at 6:58 pm

    They are becoming cheap when it comes to material. My boy bought some 11’s not too long ago, and the 23 on the back is peeling off already. He also has the 2001 release (which he’s worn a lot), and the 23 still intact.

    What’s up with that AJ?

  24. Posted by:The White Ranger on July 14, 2009 at 6:25 pm

    I feel like this is one of JB’s ploys to get a lot of money in this economy. The patent doesn’t even look that smooth. I admit I have major doubts about the quality…we’ll have to wait and see…

  25. Posted by:T-Dunc on July 14, 2009 at 5:58 pm

    I have the “o.g.” 2001 retro and wore them like crazy. They do now look cheap after what JB did to patent leather. I remember when I rocked these fresh to school, they absolutely killed it. Now, with so many fakes and garbage JB products, I’m sad to say I never even wear them or even care to. sad.

    this one’s for the hipster era hypebeasts who follow.

  26. Posted by:fly on July 14, 2009 at 5:41 pm

    This is why I retired from the game years ago. The whole Jordan brand has become diluted, and cheapened by the re re re retro’s…

  27. Posted by:Keothekid! on July 14, 2009 at 4:12 pm

    Ebay resellers mark your calendars. I won’t be buying these. $175. ok but why limit them to quickstrikes. It’s a given they will skimp on the quality. Black friday too? Just wait. It will be on the news. Someone will get shot over these. Good call JB. This is going to be great.

  41. Posted by:Mota.. on July 14, 2009 at 4:24 am

    Keep killing them Jordan brand ^_^
    all your grail are going to get retro one by one
    i use to like it when they used to be more original and make new kicks or some new colorway (not the same pair in 50 new colorways -_- )
    but in the end Jordan brand is just a business and all they are doing is there job killing your grail while taking your money at the same time =]

    I’m looking forward to this release, but I’m afraid of how they might “screw it up”. Jordan brand likes to give us an 80% effort of what we really want.
