Gonna do everything I can to get these as well... but it won't be cheap I'm guessing

---

I think those are going to go quick. Pre-release prices on secondary are like $450, so the bots will be out in force. I think they will be on the SNKRS app, though. I've only ever won a SNKRS raffle once, and it was recently for these that should be arriving today.



Speaking of secondary, I've only ever done that once and it was for the Jordan 11 Jubilees.

---

The AJ1 "University Blue" will be on SNKRS March 6th.

I was actually checking SNKRS app when the shock drop for the Jubilees happened so got lucky and was able to cop it. Still in the box, though.

Any NB heads in here? I've been wearing nothing but different 992's for the past two years because I'm an old man.

Watched Sneakerheads when it came out on Netflix, that is the extent of my knowledge of the hobby.

I think what Michael Jordan and Nike have done with the Air Jordan brand is fascinating, and I don't particularly care for Jordan, and prefer adidas over Nike.

Love the ultraboosts. I think these are both up there for my favorite shoes ever when you factor in how damned comfortable they are.

---

I'm def all about the 3 stripe life and ultraboost

---

I've recently become a 3 striper. Really like boost and bounce. Not sold on boost for actual running technology but it's really comfortable.

Retro styles I really like NBs and Sauconys and have had a few over the years.

I keep and flip some. I got lucky enough to flip the first drop of the yeezy zebras for $1500, i usually only keep basic ones and some of the more subtle yeezys, my most rare pairs are Air Griffey II, Air Max I Atmos Elephant, Plum Dunks and Spiderman Jordan I's

Not a star wars guy, but the boba fett ones are nice.

AJ Bred 4 is the greatest sneaker of all time. The end.

I wish I was good enough at golf to justify buying these.

There's a brand out there called Golf Kicks that's pretty cool. Basically, it's separate cleats that screw in, and their website has instructions for modifying 11s.

I installed some in a pair of Stan Smiths, but the sole wasn't really working. Stan Smith's have unique sole pattern that i would would work, but it really just kept them from gripping.



I put them into some old boosts I had, and they work surprisingly well. You just need a smooth place for them to bite, but they stick and don't rip. I think I'm going to convert a pair of cheap AJ1 lows.

I dunno about that. The 4 is an absolute classic for sure, but I think the banned AJ1 is probably the most iconic.



I think the original (1995) 11 concords are the best looking.



My favorite colorway for the 11s is the cool grey (which is getting rereleased this year).



Bonus: My favorite non-Jordan is the 1995 Air Max Sensation (Webbers)

Not a sneaker head, but surprised not to see my three favorite pairs growing up (that I owned)

Agassi:



Bo:



Deion:

in no order the shoes i covet are

4s
11s
air max 97/95
reebok questions
the bo jackson sc trainers

no mention of 3s?

The 3s were probably the ones that really launched Jordans into the stratosphere. The "cement" look is still really nice on the original white ones. Personally, I like the look of the 4s better, but I'm probably in the minority on that opinion.

Also, I should mention the Team USA 7s (1992) that were in the olympics.

That Agassi shoe is really nice

Speaking of, this one is coming out this year...

I've been a UB guy for 3 or 4 years- just went to fleet feet for a refresh, and gawd the new ones are ugly. Went Brooks Glycerin - oh, they fine.

?sw=900

Had no idea so many rappers posted on TexAgs.

Yeah those are awesome... seems like they are only women's sizes though?? Doesn't make sense to me.

That makes no sense. Disappointing if it comes out that way.

Had these when I was a little kid. They were my first "big" shoe and I was obsessed with them. Thought my dad was going to blow a gasket.

The heaviest basketball shoes of all-time.

The 90s had the best shoes.

Definitely.

I would say for newer basketball shoes, I thought Lebron's 7 was a good look.



The Kobo Proto 5 is another great one.

For anyone who plays basketball, Kobe 4's and 5's Protos are the best hoop shoes you can buy. The designs are well over 10 years old and half the NBA still wears them.

love the stories behinds the kobes...that he modeled the lowtops after soccer

and that lol since jordan modeled one of his shoes off his ferrari kobe modeled his off his audi and we got these abominations

Looking at them makes me feel like I've already rolled an ankle, but you're right about the NBA loving them. The Bruce Lee versions were all over the court, though I think notice the 6 "Grinch" all the time these days. Turn on a game and you'll see like 2-3 players wearing these:

this is fascinating. she got fired, in part, because her son was running a resale operation using her credit card.

basically her son had exclusive access to shoes due to his mom's position

I thought this was going to be about Michael Jordan's son, ha
