New Kicks On the Block: Air Jordan "Gamma Blues" Released Today

[Bill]

2013′s Air Jordan 11 has been officially confirmed to release this holiday season. The Air Jordan 11 “Gamma Blue” takes the iconic model and blacks it out. Every mid-top Air Jordan 11 that has ever released has featured a white midsole. The “Gamma Blues” darken the plush Phylon cushioning, as well as the mesh and patent leather upper. Contrasting details are provided by its nickname’s hue on the Jumpman symbols and portions of the outsole, while varsity maize adds another accent on the tongue tag and heel tab. A deep ice blue outsole gives a cool ride to the much-anticipated release, which is officially slated to hit retailers December 21st for $185 a pop. Are the Gamma Blue 11s a necessity for your closet? Tell us your take in the feedback box underneath, and keep Nice Kicks streaming for everything sneakers.

The shoes cost about $5-10 to make, marketing $100, Nike's profit $200 and, finally, Jordan's cut to put his name on them, $100. So with that, I'm guessing the shoes cost around $400 without even one Google search.

I'm rushing out right now to get my pair. Don't hold me back.

Is this what was happening while that car was getting repo'd?

I was just about to ask the exact same question

I like my Air Jordan 17's...I wear them all the time, paid 200 for them, and they were worth it.

This weekend is a big one as far as sneakers releasing. The standard Air Jordan 11 December release will finally hit in the form of the “Gamma Blue” 11. Also on the block is another Nike Kobe “Prelude Pack” release, a special Nike Air Pythom that will debut at the huge DSM NY opening, the first ever Sneaker Freaker x adidas project, some scattered Nike retro goodies, and more.

I only know because I was wondering wtf the lady was waiting for when they repo'ed her MB...as she stood waiting for the store to open. :funny:

I just paid over twice that for shoes last month but those were real shoes that will last me a lifetime with proper care and a good cobbler. These shoes are, well, disposable

I'm sporting Lebron James :dance:

I have a few pairs of chuckies. Can't wear them if I'm on my feet all day, though. Not a lot of cushion in the sole.

How much are Air Jordans worth, I think from 1985 or 1986 :confused5: Nice shape, worn a few times

Maybe check E-bay, to see what comparable shoes have sold for? To me, used shoes? Well, not for me, but everyone sees the world differently.

[Frizzle]

Never saw the appeal for owing a pair of "Js"

What's this? I check in and there are zombie threads everywhere.

Panic!

It took quite some time to find someone to pay me $$$ for old shoes. :hurray:

And they pay them mugs at the Nike factory in China $1.67 an hour to make 'em, too. I've been there and seen it first hand. I've never owned a pair of Jordan's and see no reason to break a perfectly good track record now. :D

Just another thing for some ghetto slug to kill someone over!
