What does this have to do with beating Illinois?
October 18th, 2016 at 7:05 PM ^
Not only that, but we can't talk about this until we beat....
October 18th, 2016 at 3:58 PM ^
These are...so beautiful
October 18th, 2016 at 4:02 PM ^
I can't help but wonder if you took that same design and removed Jumpman and put the Adidas stripes on there somewhere if people would feel the same way. To my aging eye they are extremely busy and are a jarring contrast to the simplicity and, dare I say it, elegance of the new BB jersey's themselves.
Me no likey.
October 18th, 2016 at 4:12 PM ^
They are busy, but definitely not enough tire tracks to be Adidas.
October 18th, 2016 at 4:22 PM ^
Adidas Ultraboosts and Yeezys are pretty much the two most popular shoes right now. Michigan fans hated Adidas because of nostalgia and the shit alternate jerseys made of especially shit materials. Not because their shoes aren't trendy.
October 18th, 2016 at 4:48 PM ^
I'm not sure where you're getting this information. Additionally, Yeezys popularity has less than zero to do with Adidas. Top 5 best selling shoes are Nikes for the latest month tracked.
October 18th, 2016 at 4:51 PM ^
That's because ultraboosts and yeezys have limited releases. They sell less of them at higher prices. Lack of supply causes a surplus in hype and demand. Go scope out any sneakerhead community.

I never would've known that without the micro lesson. Thanks bro.
October 18th, 2016 at 5:14 PM ^
You're welcome! Have a great rest of your day!
October 18th, 2016 at 6:15 PM ^
For your test, remember that sUPply slopes upwards.
October 18th, 2016 at 8:56 PM ^
Wait, what?!? I guess in hindsight my arguments did seem counter intuitive.
October 18th, 2016 at 4:25 PM ^
That's definitely a part of it, but I also think the Jordan/Nike logo does actually look sleeker than other logos. Here's a post about Klay Thompson's signature shoe from Chinese company Anta. People were sort of hating on them, but it was interesting to see how people reacted with different logos
Convinced you buy the shoe more than the logo? Try this on your sneakerhead brain pic.twitter.com/O6tbJp0nsP

I'm a fan of the Champion logo, myself. But nothing beats British Knights.
October 18th, 2016 at 4:50 PM ^
in Black dad footwear. I don't think my Dad knows there are other casual footwear brands.
October 18th, 2016 at 4:57 PM ^
I used to love a good pair of K-Swiss
October 18th, 2016 at 4:56 PM ^
was trying to get us to see something a little different.
October 18th, 2016 at 5:16 PM ^
Well yeah, basically if the same shoe was released with a Jordan logo, sneakerheads would've thought it was dope instead of making fun of it
October 18th, 2016 at 4:36 PM ^
They're maize, they're blue. Seriously I don't know why people feel the need to complain.
October 18th, 2016 at 4:53 PM ^
I'm offering my completely unsolicited and worthless opinion on the shoes - that's all. And it was in response to the vast majority of posts prior to mine practically having the vapors over how insanely gorgeous these shoes are which I personally don't see.
Complaining would be me saying shit like "why start this apparel thread WD?". Or "Why cant they just wear god damn Converse All Stars like the good old days." This isnt a complaint at all.
October 18th, 2016 at 7:02 PM ^
Thanks for not being yet another one complaining about WD
October 18th, 2016 at 4:38 PM ^
Like the maize ones better, but still...
As long as the recruits love 'em I guess.
October 18th, 2016 at 5:01 PM ^
Yeah, this is a bit too loud for my tastes as well. Damn whippersnappers.
October 18th, 2016 at 5:25 PM ^
Non UM colorways sell out before available to general public. But I'm sure your style preferences rule.
October 18th, 2016 at 11:00 PM ^
I agree, not good.

...they could physically take the $$$ out of my pocket.
October 18th, 2016 at 4:51 PM ^
Best shoe ever made. Flints release next September. I'll be in line.... and I swore I'd never do that.
October 18th, 2016 at 4:02 PM ^
I must have these. never bought Jordan's before but these are incredible.
October 18th, 2016 at 4:03 PM ^
Need a GIF of Tuco.
October 18th, 2016 at 4:03 PM ^
Is the only show they will wear ?
October 18th, 2016 at 4:03 PM ^
There's one thing wrong with these shoes that's incorrect with the new branding standards set by Nike for us.
Anyone wanna guess?

Yeah the A is wrong.

The swoosh and jumpman make an appearance?
October 18th, 2016 at 4:12 PM ^
That's my guess. Swoosh and jumpman are both on the shoe.

That's just how the XXXIs are designed. It's a homage to the AJI
October 18th, 2016 at 4:07 PM ^
One thing in your opinion. You don't like Michigan being on the bottom of the shoe
October 18th, 2016 at 4:14 PM ^
There was a white pair posted a couple days ago on either the Basketball or Equipment Twitter account. They are GORGEOUS, but the tweet must've been deleted since then. I'll try to find them again.
EDIT: Found. These will look great with the white uniforms!
October 18th, 2016 at 4:08 PM ^
The 31s don't really do it for me. Hopefully they release some Michigan 11 lows.
October 18th, 2016 at 4:09 PM ^
...but, as we say in Yiddish, these look "ungapatchka" to me.
October 18th, 2016 at 4:13 PM ^
Can this lowly gentile request to add that term to my lexicon? That is a fantastic term.
October 18th, 2016 at 4:25 PM ^
It doesn't take a lot of chutzpah to use Yiddish terms when you're kibbitzing with your friends. As someone who considers himself to be a mentsch, nothing would make me kvell more than to know that a nice gentile like you was using our language when he schmoozes with all of the beautiful blond shiksas out there.
October 18th, 2016 at 4:37 PM ^
You need to write all posts like this. Awesome!
October 18th, 2016 at 5:10 PM ^
Oy. That would cause so much tsuris for me.
