Nike has recently released two shoes with a flipped swoosh - the Slam Jam Blazers and the Travis Scott Air Jordan 1s. The Slam Jam Blazers had a very limited European release. If you want a pair you will have to pay resell in the $500 range. The Travis Scott Jordan’s had a limited release but are getting a wider release in April.

The Blazers:



The Jordan’s:



Both of these shoes get the Jon Ham stamp of approval. You may have recognized the Jordan’s during the Super Bowl halftime show.



And to all you baws who always are like “grown men don’t wear sneakers,” this guy disagrees:



Let this guy be a role model for all you 40+ year olds who feel like you can’t pull off a stylish sneaker. That guy fricks!

Why are they selling shoes that already belong to someone?

It’s art, it’s style, it’s fun, its conversation, it’s a story, it’s expression, it’s a hobby, it’s a connection, it’s functional.

I believe the proper term is ‘baby Jordan’s’

You should turn them into Christmas tree ornaments or something like that. While being totally impractical, that’s a cool gift.

Tennis shoes are trashy unless you are working in the yard, exercising/playing sports or are under 16

Its pretentious and retarded as hell to spend 500 on a pair of shoes that cost 2 bucks to make.

I disagree. They’ve generated some fun banter and actual conversation on sneakers/fashion. If it’s not your cup of tea I’m sure there’s another pit bull, teacher sex, or complain about other drivers thread on the way.

Yeah, I personally can’t justify paying more than low $100’s on sneakers, but if you can afford it and that’s what you want then have at it.

This is not a pecker type thread. He would jump to way more conclusions using "advice" he found in a slate article

Yeah I totally appreciated the coin he dropped on them but it was so far out my wheelhouse I didn't really know what to say
