I actually like the ones yesterday a lot better. The way the "GO BLUE" doesn't balance out is throwing me way off.
February 28th, 2017 at 1:47 PM ^
Like the style but disappointed with the color.
M usually wears the maize unis during March Madness, and black shoes & socks should always be deployed when wearing maize. Classic.
February 28th, 2017 at 11:08 AM ^
Khaki? JK
February 28th, 2017 at 11:11 AM ^
Cal, and Marquette Jordan schools?
February 28th, 2017 at 11:29 AM ^
Dolla, dolla bill y'all.
February 28th, 2017 at 11:51 AM ^
is outfitted in Jordan brand. I couldn't believe it!!
February 28th, 2017 at 12:27 PM ^
BCHS '96 here.

Maybe Jordan has a thing for Maize/Yellow and Blue?
February 28th, 2017 at 11:20 AM ^
Those look great to me. Not pictured here are the bottoms of the shoes, which are clear with "MICHIGAN" on the bottom. [Edit - Two seconds later WD reposts with improved pictures, including the soles!] These are extremely well done, IMO.
It seems that Nike screwed up their opportunity on the UNC ones, though. Rather than simply say "TAR" on the back of each heel, they apparently made the decision to have "TAR" on the left shoe and "HEELS" on the right.

underrated comment
Oral Roberts, maybe
February 28th, 2017 at 11:52 AM ^
Well, I'd like it to say that because it would say "TAR" on the heel of each shoe. Making them Tar Heels.
(Rather than, say, advocating for their shoes to reference misspelled uncooked beef dishes.)
February 28th, 2017 at 3:46 PM ^
Who the heck are the Tar Ankles
February 28th, 2017 at 11:19 AM ^
Not paying $160 though
February 28th, 2017 at 12:14 PM ^
That's actually a pretty nice price for those Jordans.
The XXXI are the most comfortable pair of J's I own.
The top of the line new arrivals are usually $220 price point.
February 28th, 2017 at 12:36 PM ^
I just picked up a pair of Lebron XIII's for $52.99 from the Nike Outlet at Tanger
February 28th, 2017 at 12:59 PM ^
At what point do basketball shoes and anti-gravity boots become the same thing? Are we already there?
February 28th, 2017 at 2:27 PM ^
That's $52.99 you'll never get back
February 28th, 2017 at 11:19 AM ^
I have the dunk from above J Retro 4's and the Nike Dunks Air Wolverines from last year... but what I wouldn't give for a nice retro Michigan themed pair of 1's, 3's, 4's or 5's. Like these, but wish they were the highs. Of course I'll still get them, though.
February 28th, 2017 at 11:22 AM ^

The galling thing is that that's our old font.
These new 31s have the new font. And it looks spectacular.
February 28th, 2017 at 11:43 AM ^
infinitely more, they are player exclusives after all. The "GO BLUE" is a little too tacky for my taste
The "GO BLUE" is so large that it looks like screaming. Either reduce the point size, or replace it with a block M. It would be a cleaner look.
Otherwise, these new ones are pretty sweet. I wouldn't buy them, but that's nothing against the shoes. I'm just a cheap ass.
February 28th, 2017 at 11:42 AM ^
You sound like Brandon obsessing over the specifications of the block M.
99% of fans don't know or care what our official font is.
February 28th, 2017 at 11:49 AM ^
I use the font pretty much every day, so I'm familiar with it. I'd rather just have the current stuff.
February 28th, 2017 at 11:57 AM ^
February 28th, 2017 at 11:58 AM ^
It's gotten to the point where I'm annoyed that all of our scoreboards have the wrong font on them.
February 28th, 2017 at 12:02 PM ^
February 28th, 2017 at 1:43 PM ^
this means WD sends all of his emails and papers with the official Michigan font.
February 28th, 2017 at 11:55 AM ^
God why aren't these for sale, I'd buy them in a second
February 28th, 2017 at 11:57 AM ^
Yeah this is better. One's we can actually buy are definetely better than the ones posted yesterday
February 28th, 2017 at 11:22 AM ^
Them's nice. I might have to get me some and not tell the wife how much they cost.
I also like the GT ones, if you remove the Hoyas and Georgetown parts (I'm partial to grey shoes).
February 28th, 2017 at 11:38 AM ^
The Jordan 5s in the wolf grey colorway are the greatest Jordans ever made. Fight me.
