Jordan Heels for girls

Ok....I know im a man but jordan heels?I dont see how they are recreational shoes. I dont get why you would put designs from a basketball shoe and put it on a pair of heels. Hopefully they are making money off of this because if they arent its a waste of money.I only thought jordans were shoes for recreational purposes. If i were a girl i really wouldnt wear them.They look kind of clownish and for 500.00.What?Honestly they are wasting time and money.I mean...I like the regular shoes but they are just making me not like the shoes anymore. Keep making sports shoes and get off that.

Jordan XX8 review

The jordan Xx8 is finally here.I thought it would look better than what it does but if it sells big numbers congrats.I know even my little brother wouldnt buy those.But...they look like they are a high quality basketball shoe.I think its a good basketball shoe beacause it looks like it has good ankle support.When its rolled down it just gets uglier.



Traction – "For the second time in less than a year I receive ample traction from a translucent outsole.
The Air Jordan XX8 provides you with pliable rubber in an aggressive pattern that makes up the entire surface. There will never be a point in time in which you are without traction. Even on the slickest of courts, the XX8 held up surprisingly well.
With the rubber being as pliable as it is, it feels fairly sturdy enough for outdoor surfaces… not sure how quickly one would want to lace up a pair of $250 basketball sneakers for outdoor use but knowing its a possibility is always nice".


Cushion –" I went over the new implementation of the Proplate Zoom Air in a Performance Teaser but just in case you missed it… its amazing.
The LeBron X offers a bouncy feeling Zoom unit that runs full length and may restrict certain movements for some Guards. This is where the Air Jordan XX8 comes in. You receive a similar spring with your stride but its targeted to the forefoot which comes in handy with the decoupled heel. There will be a period of adjustment with the overall setup since the Zoom unit sticks out a little bit but after a few nights of play you wont even notice it.There is another large volume Zoom unit placed in the heel and while it’s not as pronounced as the forefoot’s setup, it works perfectly and offers quite a bit of impact protection".                                                                               Material –" While there is very little in terms of overall material, what is there actually works and works very well. This is probably the best use of a shroud or zip up enclosure that I’ve experienced. Nike’s Zoom Flight Club was pretty good as well but this fabric shroud offers much better containment that a leather enclosure.
This is also where the Air Jordan XX8′s one flaw resides as I had some separation at the toe after being stepped on a few times. The toe rand features a thin layer of Fuse-like material for durability and protection of the shroud itself. Unfortunately, it would have been more durable without the Fuse layer in place altogether… or if they would have used a slightly thicker Fuse – something like what is found on the Kobe 8′s toe rand. The area’s that ended up separating can easily be repaired and they haven’t separated any more than when it initially happened so it seems to be a fairly targeted issue and may not happen to everyone but it’s something to be aware of… if you see anyone that rocks a size 15… stay out from under their feet"

This is very overpriced for 250.00.Its a nice shoe but i recommend that you dint wear these unless your playing basketball.

Nike Hyperdunk

Hyperdunk's are very nice shoes and i think that they are very good for basketball and very stylish. They look like they dont have the best ankle support because the space near the ankle. It looks ok when it comes to being light but compared to the Adizero Crazy light 1,2,and 3. I think this a nice shoe for $80-$140.00.

Cushion

"This year, Nike decided to use both Lunarlon and Phylon cushioning in the midsole, which is a big change from the Zoom Air in the previous three models. The whole midsole is made of Phylon, and there are large pieces of Lunarlon in the heel and forefoot. The Lunarlon spots felt plush during play and did a tremendous job of absorbing impact. However, the soft foam lacked responsiveness, especially during hard cuts. Overall, the Lunarlon/Phylon combo felt great underfoot throughout the game".

Breathability

"Breathability is one of the biggest areas of improvement over prior editions of the Hyperdunk. For this model, the designers chose to expose the next-generation Flywire to allow for better ventilation throughout the shoe. Although breathability is decent under the Flywire at the midfoot, most of the airflow comes up at the ankle collar. This design may not provide the most airflow through the whole foot, but heat dispersal is definitely noticeable throughout the heel and ankle area. Overall, Lunar Hyperdunk ventilation is a nice upgrade from previous models".                                                                                                               

Comfort

"The Nike Lunar Hyperdunk uses light, flexible materials in the upper, which resulted in a very quick break-in time. The shoe runs a bit narrow, which is a good thing in our opinion, because it leaves minimal dead space. Flywire in the midfoot provides a snug fit, as the large Flywire cables really hug and clamp down on the foot. Soft, lightweight material inside the ankle collar means no rubbing or irritation. High-quality materials and smart design made for a very comfortable on-court experience".



I like these shos alot and i would a like to have a pair of hyperdunks to review again.Please tell Nike about me.

Lebron X

LEBRON X By NIKE

I would like of pair of Lebrons for multiple reasons.

"The heel feels just like a regular Air Max 360 unit but once you begin to run & jump you will see where the Zoom Air/ Air Max combo starts to fit into place. It’s almost propelling in the forefoot and is just incredible. There were some minor stability issues along the outrigger – more pillars in that location would have been useful – but overall it’s a great new setup that offers you the best of both worlds".



Material –"The Fuse is thick yet flexible. Durability isn’t an issue – as we have come to expect. One positive to take away from their larger price tag – $180 for the regular & $290 for the Nike+ version – is that they will last you a while. Break-in time isn’t really required here so that is something most of us will come to appreciate. I remember when they first used Fuse on the LeBron line with the LeBron 8 P.S… this is nothing like that stiff and rigid Fuse, this time around Nike has made the plastic based material feel almost luxurious".







Fit – "If you have the Hyperdunk 2012 – or have at least tried it on – then that is what you can expect with the LeBron X. They are true to size but pretty snug so if you don’t like to have the upper wrapped around your foot – I personally love it – then you may want to go up ½ size".
"Lockdown is apparent once your foot is inside the shoe… and you won’t even have laced them up before you noticed. From heel to toe, you receive one of the best overall fits any sneaker can provide without chaffing or hotspots, much like the Hyperdunk 2012. The Dynamic Flywire works in tandem with your movements as each set of cables adapts to your game while in motion. Dynamic Flywire really does make the older Flywire seems outdated and it wasn’t introduced that long ago".


They can cost from 165.00 to 300.00!!!!I think it is highly overpriced . I get that they are making money over  the shoe but i want to review this shoe for myself to see if it is worth the cost.

Adizero Crazy Light 1

Adizero crazy light is very different and alike in multiple ways. The regular Adizero is not signed by Derrick rose but the D.rose adizero is.The Derrick Rose Adizero is made with different materials and is made in different colors that are not available with the regular Adizero. They are similar because they both have three stripes on the back and are very identicle.I like this shoes because they are very light and stylish(i have the shoes on the left) .I thinkyou should buy this shoe because its a good price for $110.00.
