New Pics of the Upcoming Cardinal Jordan True Flight
Sep 12, 2008 | Comments 15
For several years now, Jordan Brand has released Jordan Team Basketball sneakers that take clear inspiration from Air Jordan signature styles. Though JB has strayed away from this formula for a while now with releases that include the Dentro, the Esterno, the TGIM, etc., Jordan Brand is set to release another signture inspired Team Basketball sneaker next year, the Jordan True Flight. Inspired by the Air Jordan VII, the B'Loyal Jordan Team Basketball sneaker was inspired by the VI, the Jordan True Flight features many of the Air Jordan VII's chracteristics including the overall shape, the sole, the ankle, and the heel tab. As with all signature inspired Team Jordans, the True Flight improves upon the OG VII by utilizing today's performance standards.
The Jordan True Flight in this post has already been nicknamed the "Cardinal" Jordan True Flight due to it's resemblance to the "Cardinal" VII, but, there is no Cardinal in the sneaker, it is actually Red.

LOOKS OK BUT SINCE I KNOW NO MORE JORDANS AFTER THE 23 WHICH IS OK BECAUSE THE DESIGNS ONLY GOT WORSE AFTER THE 17 I WOULDNT COP THESE IM STICKING TO RETROS!
It's the Jordan 7's just re-tooled? i'm just sayin? they don't look sturdy at all?
Ever hear of a "period" Oscar? They prevent run on sentences. As for the shoes, they may be better than the 7's to ball in but not to style in.
who the hell is buying these knockoffs? I think it's safe to assume the Jordan brand can't design and come up w/ new sht. All they can do is retro and remix. seems desperate imo.
a fruad of a classic shoe.a damn shame for jb/bj/nike. when will this madness stop.the good thing is i get to keep a lot of $$ in my pockets. THANKS GENTRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GARBAGE!!!!!!!!!!! Stop MJ u can never remake a classic. This looks like the fakes that get sold on the internet & on the streets. Bootleg!
I agree with rod. I think JB is putting out ****. We're getting pure b.s. with the .5s and the jumpman shoes. Pure Jordanheads know the difference and will not buy this ****. MJ is really getting paid with this ****.
not bad but if these are 150...def not worth it!!! i just think that the combo shoes are ruining the jordan brand in and of itself so i wont cop. just watering down the brand!
In my humble opinion, these shoes are not worth the money, especially from a "performance" standpoint. JB has to seriously re-think their pricing strategy.
Personally, for a high performance b-ball shoe, I would rather get the Hyperdunk and a nice new spalding basketball for the same money as this hacked up VII.
In my opinion, it looks like jordan wants his own version of the hyperdunk.
WE WANT TINKER BACK!! WE WANT TINKER BACK!!! WE WANT TINKER BACK!!!! TINKER IZ A TRUE ARTIST AND THE SNEAKER IZ HIS CANVAS!!!
in my opinion i like the sneaker from every other angle except the first pic of the whole shoe. but i do agree with everyone above. 7 Cardinals are BETTER they should release those instead. if these are 100 then I would cop but other than that no way. but i know 100 is not an option for JB.
they are sayin' this and sayin' that, but once they see me rockin' these joints everybody is gonna feel em.
yoo i still have the cardinals ds why wud i want to buythesetheylooklke somethin payless wud make to get some attention to their store bad job jb
sad remake. im not coppin somethin dat has not effort or creativity
