I'd definitely buy -- except for the huge GO BLUE on the heels.  I don't need acutal Michigan Ms and GO BLUES on the shoes (Except for the inside / soles), just make them maize, blue, and awesome.

The bottom of those soles will yellow after time or repeated wear, which is a turnoff. However, I'm also one of those sneaker people that only wears them on a dry day when the temperature is about 60 degrees so I will now return to my cave.

Because the ones that were released when we became a Jordan School does not say GO BLUE on the back heel, the heel has a Jordan logo w the word Jordan. I bought these ones for my son and I must say I like his much better then these so called new ones. Everything is the same except the heel.

don't like the Go Blue on the back of the shoes. That will prevent me from buying them at all. And that's a shame, because with a block M or nothing on the heel, I would have bought them. Without the heel fonts, they are gorgeous.

I would buy them if I wasn't so fat. I wouldn't be fooling anyone with athletic shoes. I used to spend $120 for nikes in college (late 90s) when I played basketball. I imagine $160 is a fair price given licensing fees and inflation.

Exclusivity. These will be gone in 10 minutes. They're on SNKRS, so you know it's gonna be a big sell. 

I might not even get the Nike shoes I posted yesterday because I can't justify spending $270 on two pairs of shoes, one of them I'd only wear to Basketball games and during perfect weather which isn't even during athletics season when we do have it.

When we do have it during spring sports, none of the teams are Jordan so I wouldn't be able to wear them.

Pass on both of these shoes W.D.
I already have Michigan dunks in low and high top.
They need to make a Michigan color way for Jordan 3s,4s,5s,6,7s,11s. I rather save my money for some Yeezys.

These shoes are stupid awesome.  I'll never pay that much money for shoes (NTTAWWT).  The most expensive shoes I own are my golf shoes ($89 on sale).

 

Still, those are dope.

I've never paid that much for shoes before, but I'm all in....any idea if these types of shoes usually sell out?  I'm hoping they have toddler sizes too, so my son can look fly.

Mr. Jordan,

My money is your money.

Signed,
Yost w/ the fresh J's.

 

...I will absolutely have these. I'm not one to wear jerseys (although I don't belittle men who do)...but I'll wear these shoes with my Michigan gear instead. These are a thing of beauty.

Also, I co-sign what everyone is saying about the GO BLUE. I would've prefered it be navy on navy, block M's, or just leave it off altogether.

My first post ever in an apparel thread, so the signs are not trending in a good direction for my "condition".

I agree 100% though with the above comment; I would be at the store were it not for the garish "Go Blue" on the backs. 

A tasteful, less prominent, skinny block M on each back (or nothing) would have been perfect.

People would be screaming "Go Blue" as you walk by if they notice.  I don't need to scream it from the back of my shoes in maize.  On t-shirt, maybe.  The rest of shoe is very sharp, would look great with blue jeans.
