We’ve been out of the ’00s for nearly 18 months now, but don’t tell Jordan Brand. Many fans simply wouldn’t want to see more of the Air Jordan Force Fusion series that came out toward the end of last decade, but judging by the feedback from the first point-oh’d Air Jordan Legacy model, this is one (somewhat jumbled) trip back in time that’s well-justified. The Air Jordan 8.0 is unlike the 2.0 that came before it, but makes similarly significant improvements to its bulky 1993-born vamp in lieu of a shift in cushioning technology. The legendary AJVIII ‘Aqua’ colorway will be reprised along with the OG home look that swaps its traditional True Red for the Varsity variety. Click through for more of these Spring 2012 drops, let us know what you think of the latest Jordan Brand x.0 model and stick with Sneaker News for the Air Jordan 8.0 release date. via EUkicks

From what I see, I don't like them.
I'm not gonna judge toooo hard though cause these aren't detailed or legitimate pictures of them.
June 21st, 2011 at 1:59 am
i'm gonna throw up.
June 21st, 2011 at 2:01 am
Noooooooooooooooooo!
June 21st, 2011 at 2:02 am
I don't know. I got to see more clearer pictures.
June 21st, 2011 at 2:11 am
O_o what the fuck is that???????
June 21st, 2011 at 2:15 am
I really wanted the Jordan 8 to come back but not like this
June 21st, 2011 at 2:22 am
Why Jordan brand please stop and just give us Aquas with Better Quality
June 21st, 2011 at 2:25 am
The 8's are my favorite Jordan, why did they have to do this? Release them as retros, not some hybrid..
June 21st, 2011 at 2:26 am
FUK YEA!!! COPPIN TILL COPS SHOOT ME!!!!
June 21st, 2011 at 2:27 am
Whats the concept? Pix to blurry… it looks like a bad fusion between a hurache and the viii's..??
Can't really tell tho..
June 21st, 2011 at 2:27 am
From what i see i already don't like these. I'll just wait for them to retro the 8's 2012.
June 21st, 2011 at 2:27 am
I hate when they fuck wit a classic…
June 21st, 2011 at 2:28 am
Why Jordan why wont you just release retros instead of these crappy "remakes"
June 21st, 2011 at 2:32 am
Look like Hurraches
June 21st, 2011 at 2:42 am
Stop hating. These look good imo and i already own the aquas and bugs' 8's so fuck off, judgmental queers. You can't tell me NOTHIN.
June 21st, 2011 at 2:51 am
they should stop f***ing with the 8s and just retro them, cuz they will fly off the shelves faster than these would
June 21st, 2011 at 3:07 am
so rather than having a sleek look, they look like boots…..
weak as usual and prob cost like $150.
June 21st, 2011 at 3:13 am
Blurry ass pictures! lol
June 21st, 2011 at 3:21 am
if you hate on these honestly you gatta be smoking you cant even really see anything im not saying people should have opinions but damn can we at least wait to see the damn thing before we all say its trash
June 21st, 2011 at 3:23 am
also lol at least theres not giant air bubble like the 2.0 it could have been worse guys lol
June 21st, 2011 at 4:17 am
JB knows that there is idiots out there that are willing to buy these over-priced pieces of mierda
June 21st, 2011 at 4:39 am

June 21st, 2011 at 8:01 am
i need clearer pictures…but i can already tell you the shape doesn't appeal to me @fly_sole
June 21st, 2011 at 8:12 am
ball shoes
June 21st, 2011 at 8:17 am
don't worry they will make these then retro the OGs the year after
thats how JB makes their money.
June 21st, 2011 at 8:20 am
why god?
June 21st, 2011 at 8:26 am
The Jordan Brand bastardization continues…….Cant really tell from the image, but this idea just seems like a no, I understand maximizing your brands dollar potential, but why not just release the original shoe , instead of these futuristic "technoligically point whateva the fuck" sort of but not really the same shoes
June 21st, 2011 at 8:40 am
Way better than the the original. I will get these and I had the of.
June 21st, 2011 at 8:52 am
GIve us retro 8s JB! Not this!
June 21st, 2011 at 9:35 am
PLEASE STICK WITH THE OG….PIC'S ARE NOT CLEAR BUT WHAT I CAN SEE >>>>>>>>>>>>ITS NOT GOOD
June 21st, 2011 at 9:36 am
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO…
June 21st, 2011 at 9:53 am
I dont think nike understands how important retros are to us sneakerheads. This is dumb as hell.
June 21st, 2011 at 10:01 am
Damn it JB, give me 8s! Not 8.0, 8.54, 8.2…Real 8s!
June 21st, 2011 at 10:02 am
That's the Pix-elated Shoes that Jordan wants it to be digitally on our feet lmfao!! But updated clearer pictures please.
June 21st, 2011 at 10:03 am
I love the 8s but these arent looking too solid
June 21st, 2011 at 10:14 am
My manager was right..these r fuckin ugly
June 21st, 2011 at 10:15 am
i dnt like em as of now but i wanna see the detailed pics and the new technology used so i can say nike hasnt completely lost they mind
June 21st, 2011 at 10:24 am
Please No.
June 21st, 2011 at 10:29 am
never been a fan of the 8's (or the 2's) but the updated 2's were a lot better to me and so might these. too early to tell
June 21st, 2011 at 10:48 am
if those black ones look really like the aquas i would consider cope em
June 21st, 2011 at 10:54 am
damn…. cmon jb… yal should know better
June 21st, 2011 at 11:18 am
NO! Please do not do this.
June 21st, 2011 at 11:20 am
No way possible we believe someone with 2 pair of the retro 8s will say these look good.
June 21st, 2011 at 11:36 am
HELLLL NOOOO
June 21st, 2011 at 11:45 am
retro'ing some 8s would have been much easier…. or even some new colorways. JB. There's a lot of us 8s fans out here… wheres our love? We don't want your shitty fusions with plasticy leather and "suede" that looks straight out of a base model chevy.
June 21st, 2011 at 12:13 pm
Can we just get da Aqua 8's pleaz?
June 21st, 2011 at 12:13 pm
I like black one~~~ Here is good site to buy it~~~ ShoeuUShop,Inc
June 21st, 2011 at 12:52 pm
LMAO. These will never come to my house.
June 21st, 2011 at 1:54 pm
Such a stupid name. "8.0" is the same as 8
June 21st, 2011 at 1:57 pm
WTF Jordan Brand!!!???!!??
June 21st, 2011 at 2:12 pm
Yuck
June 21st, 2011 at 2:18 pm
what…the…FUCK
June 21st, 2011 at 2:20 pm
Brailen, the 8's are my favorite Jordan and I have pretty much all of the 8's (Except for OG's) and I can say, I DO NOT LIKE THESE. And you're right, we can't tell you anything. But don't be criticizing us. So try and make some sense next time you post a comment. And we should fuck off cause you have 2 pair's of 8's?? haha… Really doesn't make any sense. You're being the judgmental queer.
June 21st, 2011 at 2:20 pm
RIP 8
June 21st, 2011 at 2:27 pm
LMAO. It's hilarious how these people are hating on the shoes before seeing the actual shoes or even seeing the detail pics just because the shoes are made of 8's ahhhaa. Just sums up how retarded these haters are smh. Get your brains checked haters lol.
June 21st, 2011 at 2:49 pm
We aren't "hating" on the actual shoe itself. Most of us are just disappointed that they are changing a classic. If you are like me and the 8s are your favorite you would be disappointed too. Especially considering how rarely they re-retro the 8s.
June 21st, 2011 at 3:05 pm
please dont tell me they're gonna ruin the aquas! just a retro please!
June 21st, 2011 at 4:34 pm
First Nubuck on the Black Cements. Now these? –____________________________________–
June 21st, 2011 at 5:35 pm
the cops will shoot you right before you pay for it.
June 21st, 2011 at 7:35 pm
FUCK NO
June 21st, 2011 at 8:38 pm
JB is slowly gonna go out of business! No one will but this bullshit they putting out ya dig?
June 22nd, 2011 at 1:43 am
everyone complaining is not a true sneaker head.smh. you should be excited for this. jordan is modernizing their past models so they can be used for their originally intended purpose, performance. you should be looking forward to a revamping of a classic with modern technology so it can be relevant in the performance world. all you complaining about wanting retros you need to accept that Jordan is trying to move ahead and look forward
June 22nd, 2011 at 11:40 am
I know as much as ppl hate these I would use them to play ball. C'mon after all Jordans are basketball sneakers if they want to improve the technology on a model let them rock eventually they'll retro the OG models
June 22nd, 2011 at 12:51 pm
say it aint so joe, say it aint so lmao
June 22nd, 2011 at 8:41 pm
OH DEAR GOD…WHAT HAVE THEY DONE?!?!?!
June 22nd, 2011 at 10:51 pm
i cnt even see the differance just look like 8s but awfully drawn n the top looks different
June 23rd, 2011 at 1:35 pm
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
June 23rd, 2011 at 3:56 pm
Why?? why?? why?? Why cant JB just release the normal Aqua 8s so we ALL can be happpy. Rarely do I complain about releases or material or any of that…..but messing with my Aqua 8s…….a man can only take so much
September 4th, 2011 at 7:21 am
You're an idiot, or a hype. Not sure yet.
January 14th, 2012 at 4:17 am
thay look almost the same to me the back of the shoe is different and the design on the shoe aint the same but retros would had been nice
