A Look at the Potential Upcoming Air Jordan Retro VII Hares
Aug 17, 2007 | Comments 33
Back in mid 2006, [KATC reported that Jordan Brand was planning on retroing the Air Jordan VII "Hare"] as a limited, perhaps L-Style release, in 2007. Unfortunately, with this piece of information coming so early, the actual Air Jordan Retro "Hare" never hit retail shelves in 2007. Although this initial piece of news came in 2006, new pictures indicate that the retroing of the "Hare" VII was actually planned as far back as the Holiday season of 2002. As Josiah Lake explained in our audio feature, many releases are planned, sampled, scraped, and put on the shelf for a later release date. With the year of the 23 coming in 2008, and with many OG colors set to release, the long anticipated Air Jordan Retro VII "Hare" may see the light of day again.

CAN'T WAIT FOR 08!!!!
those aren't upcoming hares, those were 2002 samples.
yesssssss why did you take so long to bring these back out hurry up and release them. they are so hard
Justin says:those aren't upcoming hares, those were 2002 samples.
So many people come to this site and act like they know everything without even reading the post. The post clearly states "was actually planned as far back as the Holiday season of 2002". Had you read the post instead of jumping to get some e-fame by playing smart ***, you would have seen that. The post says "Potential" and "may see the light of day again". Which means POTENTIAL and MAY see the light of day again or MAY NOT see the light of day again. They were produced and sampled, period. As the post states.
So very ugly.
it woulda been crazy if they retroed back then
yeo IROCKJAYS i feel you ppl think they no ...really they got no clue i no all i do is buy kicks i got crazy amount but ne ways these are crazy insane ....IF they do come out im buyin two pairs....
another piece of retro ****....imo
I BETTA START SAVING MA MONEY NOW CAUSE '08 GON MAKE ME CA$H OUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
I'd get two pair if they ever dropped.
these shoes aren't close too the o.g. hares! another classic ruined.jordan is pushing me out of the shoe game by bastardizing all these classics!a gotdamn same!!!!!!!!!!
they need to retro these and da grey bugs bunny ones.
they look different from the og hares. would have to see these in person.
yo edward of detroi: you should ge the hell outta here. Its resellers like you that just kill it or people that actually genuinely like the shoes
these are hot. but will be really hyped.
now this the one I've been waiting for.
^well the obvious is the over usage of the grey. JB, please don't kill the Hares, or any other un-retroed OG's next year.
coppppppppingggggggggggg
These are smok'n!!!
alright im really gettin tired of these F-U-C-K-I-N-G old school people who jus keep sayin da same **** "ooo dey killed da sneakers wit da retro" n dey keep complainin n den...itz da same moda F-U-K-A-S who u see there first thing in da morning outside of a sneaker store in front of da line n den few minutes later u see da same ******* walkin out with a koolaid smile lookin like he jus hit da lottery so stfu n stop ur bitchen n of course their not going to make da same exact sneaker again that'll make it unfair to those who have da actual og ones
To (eldanny806)I is one of those OGs. As far as waiting on lines dont do that, I got that VIP love, so when people are outside in the cold im nice and warm next to some a-s-s.
if they drop ill prolly buy a pair but ill still be on the hunt for og hares and if i got the og ones i would prolly sell the retros. the "potential" color for the retro hares look ok. the grey is waaayy to dark. the only the only thing that is on pont about the sample is the toungue.
ja ja ja ja...!!!! i got those...!!!!
hey dumbass on comment 4 (irockjayz) i know that they are samples stupid i just want them to come back out you jackass so say off my **** foolish
this joints to go hard. too bad i got em from back in '92 suckas
PLEASE STOP HATIN PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!
there something off about the shoe..the old joints were slightly different IMO
the decent...not sure i would cop..depends what is on the calender and if this is in a package which means vii and xvi and i hated the 16 so i would pass on this package..i think the bourdax are better if you want my opinion. you all going to kill me but i think the best retro vii is the cham..hands down..just like black/carolina or white/carolina!
smh @ "zach" who apparently can't read, and figure out "irockjays" wasn't even talking about you.
i can't believe i took the time to post this...
ummmm to (BIG LOU)...wat if itz summer time huh lol na im not sayin OGs in general i mean some of ya get me tired complaining about little things on da retro i bet these look better dan da ogs im just sayin itz my opinion
I will be copping these
If they DO drop these, they need to go back to the drawing board again, because these are WAY OFF! Far too much grey when that actual color was a tan.
Just retro the TRUE TO THE ORIGINAL Hare VII's, Bordeaux VII's and the Carmine VI's... thanks.
kicksyez????? y would dey make da exact same shoe u kno u going buy em neways n if dey did dat it'll jus make it unfair to da people who werked hard and overpayed for da og hares
