Air Jordan X ‘Chicago’ – Dissected
May 9th, 2012 by John K. | 60 comments

Nobody will ever truly know what went on in Michael’s mind when he decided to hang up his jersey, lace up some cleats, and then go back to the hardwood during that eighteen-month span in the mid-90′s, but at least we get to look at what went inside the first sneaker that was designed during Michael’s official retirement (remember, the Air Jordan IX design was completed before Jordan pressed pause in ’93). The latest victim of these sneaker dissections is the Air Jordan X ‘Chicago’, which hit stores this past January; each stitch in the upper is meticulously pulled apart, revealing spongy padding in the ankle, a full-length Air unit, and a few other things consistent with other Air Jordan dissections of the recent past, so check out the detailed gallery below and let us know if you copped the Chicago X back in January.

Cool, now let's make a gas mask! -___-
If I ever wanna torture a sneakerhead am not even gunma touch them ima just rip apart all there jays thank you SN
How many comments does it take for y'all to relize that we don't like this shit?!
I heard they do this to show how the shoe works...yo. You buy the shoe, but it on your F*ckin foot and you walk in em. Thats how they work. Simple.
Why? Lol
Y'all sound like a bunch of biatches- he can set dem on fire for all I care. Fuk u mad for!- build a bridge and get da fuk over it.
I find this interesting...... idk out yall but i find it cool to see what my 160 went to and how its constructed.....STOP CRYIN LIKE THEY ARE YOUR PAIR!!!!
Too many people on these boards "S" their "H" too goddamn much...
While this idiot is "dissecting" these theres kids wearing no shoes .... Smh
Dont think the kids with no shoes are concerned with a pair of Jordans....they prolly have way bigger fish to fry.....prolly like food and shelter
Wear your shoes and enjoy them for what they are.. This ain't science class where you start dissecting them.
I can understand being pissed at seeing something you want get taken apart. But I don't get why people wouldn't at least be a little bit interested in a close look at the build and quality of these shoes. I find it fascinating.
The box costs more than the shoe
Interesting......reality but its true.....we pay so much for $neakers just for looks.....but its cool it doesnt hurt me it didnt came from my pockets...wow pay $250 for not to make a line.
Dude needs to cut his nails first...
someone should dissect this f#$% up
He's gonna make a 'Shoe Centipede'
And here I'm still try to save up for a pair.
wonder why they put gloves on when they get down to the sole.. soul
Im all trying my best not to eff my shoes up and i see shit like this.
"each stitch in the upper is meticulously pulled apart..." My ass. Dude is using a damn scissors. Nothing about this process is done meticulously. This is a cry for attention. This dude has no life.
I always just go to the last page to see if the "air" sole actually still exists in them. Considering how cheaply they are made, I wouldn't have been surprised at all to not see them.
why ruin a brand new pair of shoes, Jordans r already hard to come by SMH
Ok who can answer dis question? What is the purpose of dissecting the shoes? I mean who cares or is it jus me?
maybe the dude only has one foot! you never know
-_- i wish i had money to blow like this guy! smh
not cool
I am not here to hate because he can do whatever he wants with his shoes, but damn... Thats like ripping 200 dollars into pieces.
Kinda makes me sad because i'm saving up the little money i have to buy these.
This is just stupid!
damn so my tens are really this cheap lol why couldnt these have came out in 05 lol
why?
whew he ripped them apart didnt he.... i just like seeing the airbag
NO ONE CARES ABOUT THESE
Kinda makes me sad because i'm saving up my work money to buy these shoes.
how gas masks are born?
Again what ppl will do for attention
somebody please kill this lame
I never really understood why people did this. Just seems like you're messing up a perfectly good pair of sneakers. But maybe it's just me...
wow... this makes me wonder, how cheap the material is and simplistic this sneaker is to make... and yet i pay $160 for it...
that's the point why they are doing this...to make you realize what trash you buying from JB.
I love this guy.
Haha, I love your name.
6 seasons and a movie!
THis is pointless... its not like there is anythingimpressive to behold under it... its not a tech gadget where we can marvel at the hardware... its a pair of expensive sneakers made from cheap materials...
Here We Go Again, Lets Keep Cutting Through The Already Cheap material Jordan Brand Uses, yea Thats Gonna Help........Smh
people probably like this more than the gas masks
porque!!!!
why anyone would cut apart a shoe without taking the sole off first is beyond me.
What a waste... SMFH.
