Jordan Blueprint

Some say that Jordan Brand should ‘never change’ its classics. They’re the type to start a sentence with “All I need,” and have it end up describing an original Air Jordan Legacy design. The Championship Era Jays laid a foundation for generations to come and JB’s latest reminds us where the corner turned and the Air Jordan elevated itself from street phenomenon to global icon. The Jordan Blueprint reprises lines made famous by the Air Jordan VI, and while this design is undoubtedly another take on signature elements from that first title-winning silo, you can also see the transition into next year’s Air Jordan VII courtesy of the Huarache-like ankle cutout and generally angular appearance, sole in particular. New tonal colorways befitting the update will arrive at JB retailers next spring so click through to see what’s in store, let us know which pair looks best and how these compare to a more straightforward performance update like, say, an Air Jordan 6.0. via TSG
it is really like a modified version of the VI, which means it ...looks like a fake, to be hornest. U_U I'd prefer a retro version of the VI, rather than this.
only to hoop in
They might not be that bad.. But I'm going to be skeptical until I see the true product.
not bad on the absolute, but how can you sell something that resembles a VI w/o the tongue from the VI's?
these are dope!! I think those who dislike are not giving them a chance cause many automatically label non retros jays as wack. Think for yourself! sad part is i bet if celebs start rocking the hell out of these and hype gets built around these, then people will all the sudden like them... smh, well i look forward for these! Formulate your own opinions hypebeasts!!
Id rather wear fakes. Really how old are these people that are saying these shoes are ok? If you are in your 20s then you were born in the 90s you have no clue about quality from o.g.s it you fucktards that are killing the sneakers game.
The people complaining about young people ruining the shoe game also ruin it.
the upper design looks messy, Don't know how you can say they "look alright"
ONE WORD= GAY!
The first red Jordan Blueprints shown has a decent colorway. They'd make nice beater shoes when I don't feel like rocking some real heat, or just going to the store and grabbing something fast.
Soleswap donor! yay
Tragic.......(Puts Head Down In Disappointment)
Why why why ? Not feeling these except for the sole I guess u can swap on the OG 6's
honestly, they're not that bad
Seems like the bottom isn't even the clear icy soles?! i might be wrong??
more quality retros! dont waste the money!
OH MY GOD!!! (Joey Styles voice)
stop messing with the classics!
Whic, whic, wack.
Truth be told these would look better without the 6's sole.
These look like the Bo Jackson Air Trainer Max 91.
I thought that with that Blk/ grey/ White CW and the grey/Yellow pair too.
they look good for gym use.....or casual beaters.....but these colorways and materials would have been better utilized on some different retros of 6's ...
it has the first impression wowness but does not last. if released, i might cop if it were priced to cater the general population's buying power. i'll use it as beaters for pickup ballgaming. lol. the first colorway works for my taste
Cleanup on Isle 4... I threw up...
I think if it was nike I would buy it, but seeing that it has jordan all over it I dont think I would even bother. Why change something that was already a great shoe into money and material wasted.
use these to sole swap some 6s lol
Not bad..not really that good either
I think I'll wait for them to end up at the swap meet and use the bottom to repair my 2000 IVs that are craking
This is the 6's version of the true flights
I wish jb would focus less on whack hybrid jordan mash-ups and more on making better quality retros.
those red ones don't look bad.
these look like sum reebok pumps
itd be dope if they were snow boots or something
Go get a new toebox.. And tounge... Matter of fact, just keep it a blueprint! PLZ dont waste our time
No bad but stop investing money on shoes that will sit on shelves. Instead put that money towards better quality retros.
what. the. F**K?????
theyre not that bad imo
ugh
the bottom is the best part lol
hey the first two are not that bad. reminds me of diamond turfs
They ok... much better then da 2.0 & 8.0 fa sure... don't think I would cop
but why though?
These gonna have a long shelf life
I can use the bottle to restore my 2000 infrared vi. Thats it. Wtf is this huarache hybrid shit.
@djwi thats a clever ass idea
