We deconstructed the Air Jordan XI and its impact on sneakers as we looked at the ‘Space Jam’ Air Jordan 11 in advance of its hotly-anticipated release, but how about literally? This is what happens when you pull a 10th grade bio-class and pull an AJ11 apart at the sole. You’ll need a box cutter, needlenose pliars and a screwdriver, and off comes the sole, and the icey (yellowed) bottoms from there. With the outsole gone, you get a good sense for how massive the carbon fibre spring plate really is. Flip that jenx over and you’ll be able to strip out the full-length Air sole that was to be the last non-Zoom Air Jordan (still is). It’s just like a YouTube unboxing, except actually fun to look at, and we have more photos after the jump. via Kenlu.

I have the Jordan Mag they released over here for the Jordan 23, and they did almost the same thing….they cut one of every Jordan shoe in half lengthwise so you could see the guts….1-23…..pretty interesting

This is just dumb…
I just looked up the Space Jams on eBay, they want $300-$400 a pair?!? You could get those for $200 before they were even relased. WTF is this shit coming to????
They were so easy to get when I got them back in the day.

This is almost as bad as when that one person cut up the Black/Pink Yeezy’s and turned them into a plane!
December 29th, 2009 at 2:51 pm
