  • STILLMATIC

  • Anonoymous

    That midnight navy looks black, and I'm glad that there's mixed feelings about these shoes cause that will make it easier for me to cop em.

  • air philippines

    imho, i like the retro aquas better. 1st because the retro aquas are pretty close to the original all-star coloway and 2nd because i personally don't like the midnight navy/orange blaze/peapod color combination. the only plus these have on the aquas is that the 23 is stitched on. but to each his own...

  • lilgotti45

  • R@Y

    I THINK ITS FLAVAS THAT JORDAN IS COMMIN OUT WITH DIFFERENT COLORWAYS, CAUSE IF YOU A REAL JORDAN FAN, YOU ALREADY HAVE ALL THE OG COLORS IN ABUNDANCE, PLUS ITS MORE FUN TRYIN TO MATCH THE NEW STUFF, I COULD DEF LIVE WITHOUT ALL THE LASER NONSENSE THOUGH...

  • Chezy Chez

    these is crack dont fight it.sell offfffffff

  • Jay

    Forget what all yall sayin, these 8's are the best comin out this year, and the 8's are the best shoes to come out of the air jordan retro line. No questions asked.

  • LT

    these jordan's are fresh! i like them better than the aquas. too bad these shoes are not going to be in kid's sizes =(

  • JAY

    YA NIGGAZ IZ STUPID IF U DON'T LIKE THESE KIX , THATS HOW U CAN TELL WHO REALLY KNOWS ABOUT JORDANS , THIS KIX IZ B-U-T-FUL

  • Gut

    Jay and Lt , is right.

  • Gene Quagmire

    Any new colorway will look like fakes by definition. Jesus christ, think about what you're saying.

    That being said, I'll probably get these

  • Cramer

    Gene...i feel you man..Every color way will look fake, but its when they start putting some kind of safari print, or elephant print, or patent, something like that turns it to filth..We are entering the second generation of jordans, its sad to see new color ways just cause we all love the oldies but it has to happen.

  • MR.NIKE

    THEY RUINING THIS SNEAKER....REACHING A LIL 2 HARD PUMP YOUR BRAKES GENTRY

  • Jean

    gettin dem n da aqua blues

  • Jean

    getting dem

  • Lu

    Looks like a 28th Street and Broadway special goin' on here. I can't. I think I saw a pair in the same colorway on BlazinJays.com or some crap like that. Loyal Jordan fan since I was able to wear kicks. I hope Humphrey and JB don't start to take inspiration from the fugazy stuff out there.

  • iluvjaysanforces

    yea deez is fresh guranteed cop

  • KickFiend

    im an OG brotha but them joints is just TOOO HOT!!!!

  • JORDAN_CRAZY

    NICE HOMIES!!!!

  • Yung Throwed

    No one wears throwbacks anymore and i agree with comment 6 these are already out on my block

  • SECO X

    this is just wrong.theyre hidious. good thing the aquas r comin out first. and who wears jerseys

  • http://kixandthecity.com nikeman23

    this is a beautiful shoe

  • justforkickz

    Goes along with all the other ugly VIII's except for the Aquas.

  • Huey.P

    now wat kan i say UUGGGS man J.B once agian im disappointed y navy n blu r u serious i wish tinker hatfield was still around

  • DenTrez

    If Gerald Wallace doesn't sport those next season, I'll be supremely pissed.

  • big jay

    those are hard!!

  • SSlowMotion

    Nike could mess up a wet dream...releasing a classic and turnin' it to garbage to accomidate the masses of teenie boppers...As a collector I'm very disappointed...I was all for the black/chrome new colorways that was release accouple years back...but, I feel as if they're takin' it to fair w/ releasing all these new colorways back to back...just my personal oppion...keep it movin'!

  • femi

    i think these will be underated sneakers....i think they are pretty good and i think wiht the bobcats jersey.....u'll be good money....the navy blue tricked me at first cuz i thought it was black...i was so hyped but wen i saw it was navy blue i calmed down a little....pretty decent

  • collectin soles

    sick i always wanted The Home Depot to due a limited jordan!!! pause ...... not . also it looks like something someone who sells fake jordans would have, maybe clear VIII's would be a great idea next JB . leave the shoes alone give us og colorways stop limiting them.

  • http://www.kixandthecity.com ICEY

    man whoever dissin da jays just saying that cuz they broke and they cant grab em dem shoes is nasty and yall talkin bout they ugly what wrong with yall fools.

  • http://none Marty McFly

    First off post 70(ICEY) , if you could spell in English it'd be much appriciated. To my main point, HA....you were joking right? I'd rather spend that 150 some odd dollars on gas than waste it on these..."things". You keep showing us broke people how fly you are! LOL

  • Pluto

    marty leave the kid alone all he's doing is stateting his opinion as far as the shoes go when i first saw them i figured they would be black but after noticing they are navy im not going to get them they a nice buy but not for my pockets i want jb to bring back the nine's
