Yesterday, Sneaker News reported a preview of the Jordan Brand Spring 2011 Footwear collection. Among the confirmed releases of universally-loved Retros and the revelation of a Air Jordan x Air Max hybrid, the shoe that evoked the most curiosity was an Air Jordan hybrid that combined two Legacy models into one shoe. The first of such releases was confirmed to be the Air Jordan 6-17-23, and now we have a premature look at the first of a probable many hybrid Jordan shoes.
One quick look at the hybrid and you’ll notice that the Hybrid is more than just a mere sole-swap; it’s pretty much a completely redesigned shoe using elements of both the VI and XVII. The midsole features the translucent outsole combined with the midfoot plate while the upper is recognizably an Air Jordan VI but with a patent leather toe and a high tongue taken from the XVII. The ventilation holes taken from the Jazz-inspired Air Jordan XVII are also visible. This particular colorway of Black, Concord, Dark Grey, and Orion Blue is set for a March 2011 release so stick with Sneaker News and we’ll keep you on top of upcoming colorways and more hybrids. via NT.

they shouldve used patten leather on all of the shoe, remove whatever that crap is on the side of the shoe in the spaces, and added the strap form the 17s…if they did this, id consider.

In my opinion, these aren't as bad as the 60+. I'm actually interested in seeing other colorways of this model.

Im speechless
June 25th, 2010 at 2:25 pm

Not Bad I Just Hate Patent Leather On Jordans

hahahaha! These are awful. Normally I dont like to talk too much trash on here but these are just bad. I actually liked the 16.5's and the One6 One7's but these are a little too much. I think they're stretching it and over-saturating the market. I remember one only 1 style of J's would come out each year in just 3 or 4 colorways, now its just overkill.

these are actually not that bad. but i'm not gonna cop

C’mon Son! You can’t be serious?! These are an abomination and should be taken out to pasture and be SHOT! they already bombed with the 60+ and bringing out Varsity Red and Infared 6′s was a dumbass move too. Now these? Smh
