Air Jordans baby

dlux200sx · 12-06-2007, 01:31 AM

Someone please explain the hype to me? They are the ugliest shoes to ever exist. They are on par with crocs. And they cost 120$ and up. I don't see the obsession? They all look like futuristic space shoes or something. Except for the Jordan 1s, which were actually normal looking shoes.

I understand an obsession over a logo or brand, but damn this line of shoes proves to me that you can put a hyped up brand on the ugliest shit ever and it will sell.

I can't explain it because I agree with you 100%. I have yet to see a pair of jordans that made me think "hmmm.. I have to have these."

The most I usually end up spending on shoes is like $80, and that's because good skate shoes are the most comfortable shoes in the world.

dude jordans are the shit ! haha jp. well number 1-5 is awesome. but up until then they became too complicated trying to jampack all the features in there. People buy them because their a collectible. They want all the numbers. Just like buying all the parts for a Si. Okay that's not related.
