The Air Yeezy finally gets a break thanks to the Space Jam Air Jordan 11. Could the Space Jams be the retro of the year? It’s confirmed about the return of the Space Jams, and now everyone wants to know what’s the deal with the quality. Are they the same comfort/quality as the Countdown Pack 11′s? Here’s a video review of the Space Jam Air Jordan 11 that should answer all of your questions. The video also provides you with a detailed look at the shoes (not that you need anymore) and packaging. Props to nightwing2303, and enjoy the video.
Feel free to discuss all things “Space Jam” in the comments including the rumor about the date change. Once we get more info it will be posted.
These are definately fire, and the packaging is on point also. Definate cop, but start preparing for 2010, the 25th anniversary year looks like its gonna be a major one.
Be sure to follow TheSoleTrade on twitter, they are giving out pairs of the new Lebrons VII’s, and the Space Jams starting in October. Actually every month they are giving out two pairs of the months hottest sneaker, follow them for details, I know I am.
i need some help guys like dude said i dont wanna be camping out for these i wanna be home with my family for thanksgiving so if anyone knows another legit site where i can get them early
Quality is CDP (Crap.DooDoo.Poo) on these bastard blk/blue XI’s (I would never call these Space Jams) And theres no way in hell I would get a second pair if they release around Christmas.
you would think after all the hype and constatly pushing them back NIKE would get these right! But once again due to the lack of quality in retros looks like it gonna let us down again. I hope not but the track record speaks for itself…Im prolly still gonna grab a pair but not multiples unless they look better in person…
WELL WHAT CAN I SAY RETRO HAVENT BEEN KNOW FOR THE A-1 QUAILITY BUT I COMPLETELY MISSED OUT ON THE FIRST RELEASE SO THESE ARE A MUST COPP REGARDLESS…BUT LIKE I SAID WITH THE QUAILTY ISSUE MULTIPLE COPP IS NOW A “IF”…IF SO IS GOING TO BE A THE BABY PAIR…..
The quailty is what it is, but if u missed in the first release you have to cop these none the less. So I will cop a pair but maybe multiples if I feel there decent enough, and as far as packaging that part Jb didna very nice job on.
Selling heat on the bay- check sneakerfreaker06 in the search by seller option to see what’s there. Jordan 3 flips and fired red. Mars Blackmon 4′s and much more!
Can we get a confirmation on that release date? ive check multiple websites and they all still are saying november?!?!?! but these shoes are sick quality or not definetly a collection item (i think atleast)
Sorry about my lack of enthusiasm lol! That is what I sound like when I am excited… Im just real laid back. If I saw MJ himself in the flesh, on the inside I would be acting like an Nsync fan who just had Timberlake’s sweat drip on their shirt but on the outside I stay fairly reserved. I was excited however but also slightly dissapointed the more I had inspected them. There are quite a few things that didnt sit right with me, the warped ankle area was just the most obvious. There were glue marks on the patent area, the leather on the heal had been put on a little slopy AND the side panel of one of the shoes already had a fat crease on the patent leather?!?! How do you crease the SIDE of the damn shoe? Anyways, I am happy I got them since I had spent all my hard earned savings for the concords back in ’01 (I was in high school so I was broke) so I missed the Jams… and I still “miss” them now like someone else said on here, they arent really space jam XIs they are retro XIs in a black varsity royal and white makeup. But F-it I just love shoes.
G-money, The OG release of the Space Jams (2001) said “Jumpman Jam” on the tounge these say exactly what every other pair of XIs say “Jumpman Jordan”… There was a sample pair I had seen a loooong time ago of Space Jams that read “Jordan Jam” on the tounge but they were never released to the public that way, if Im wrong someone let me know. As far as fit goes, like I said the CDPs to me are not wearable they really hurt my right foot and are pretty tight. These however got a better “rating” from me bc they fit true to sz and when I tried them on they felt (comfort wise i.e. cusioning) more like the OG and first retro release XIs. I remember lacing up my first pair of OG XIs (breds) back in ’96 and thinking to myself “these things feel like Im walking on pillows”, when I laced up my retro Concords I felt the same way… then I laced up the CDPs back in December and thought “wtf happened to these?!?!”. Do I feel that these new “Jams” are worth the price I payed for them? Quality wise that would be a big fat NO, would they even be worth the $175 retail price when they drop? Again a big fat no. BUT getting to spend all the time I want with my daughter and wife on Thanksgiving/ X-mas (whenever they drop now) without the sneaker stalker inside me saying… Sh*t I gotta get to the mall and sit in a line with a bunch of retard re sellers and kids spending their parents money for something they dont fully understand, that is well worth it. I got what I wanted from both ends of the stick… too bad the middle of the stick was the quality factor and they must have missed the cream filling on that ish.
ok brotha man thanks for the info, really appreciate it, thank god i get paid enough to buy the kicks i want and still have enough money to save (after a monthly metrocard that is) and i can say this, these, the white/red 12′s and infrared 6′s will be the last J’s for me for a while cuz after all, ima be a daddy =]
Atleast that the SJ XI’s are better than the CDP accordin to Nightwing2303 & I’ll take ur word for it….nice review cutty, gotta get my palms on a couple of prs somehow, someway….
^^^Congrats on the new addition! Prepare yourself, when mine was born I didnt buy kicks at all for about 1.5 years! I had a bit of chatching up to do… that I never ended up doing. Hate to say this but since were all sneakerfreaks I guess I wont get gunned down by any mothers (I hope) but my daughter was born ON the release day of the grape V retros… and damn did that suck! I love my kid to death dont get me wrong but just a day later and I could have bought a pair. Instead I was looking into the main entrance with a giant head trying to get out of it… and I still dont have a pair! Bummer. Anywyas enjoy lol!!!
I think at this point we all just have to assume that the quality on any new shoe isn’t going to be what it was on the OG or even previous retros from years back. As sad as it is to say, we will all still buy and JB knows that and therefore will continue to slack on the quality issue because we are all sucked into the nostalgia factor that all of these shoes bring to us in our own little way. For me, the Space Jam CW is a must cop-> childhood memories, the movie, etc. With that being said, I just paid $340 for my pair and they should be here next week. I will try and get a second pair for retail come nov. or dec. or whenever the heck they drop.
This is sad; like i want these OH SO BAD. but its just aggravating to kno that they use terrible quality knowing that we still gonna buy. UGHHHHH it sucks bra
Judging from the video, and from what Nightwing2303 said about the shoe, it’s a piece of crap. An overpriced piece of crap too. If you all want to ignore that, and buy these anyway, then that’s fine. Seems like a waste to me. But it’s your cash, not mine.
Congratulations, G-Roc….I knew u had it in u, it wuz only a matter of time….Now I demand my t-shirt asap….I’m just B-S’n mayne, but congrats to all sneakerhead fathers, includin the dead beat daddies….
^^Nightwing that’s some funny sh*t!!!
If the quality’s “bad,” I guess I’ll just be extra inclined to wear em alot…..almost makes it a better deal than if it was like getting ahold of a perfect “trophy” pair and kinda wanting to baby the shoes and never wear em…..
damn g-money congrats but i think your going to change your display name lmao everybody thinks its g-roc instead of you haha
as for the 11′s i mean they arent where they are supposed to be, i know that so good thing im only using them for casual wear god only knows what would happen trying to hoop in them… smh
I wouldnt say the quality is “bad” its just not what it once was. This is how JB and even Nike retros work now for some reason. They give us the model we want but not quite how we wanted/ remebered it. Oh well…. theyre good enough to wear!
I cant wait…
Someone please tell me how these stand up in the video.ps I can’t view tha vid from my blackberry
THESE ARE SICKKKKKKK!!!!! Super Anxious
These are definately fire, and the packaging is on point also. Definate cop, but start preparing for 2010, the 25th anniversary year looks like its gonna be a major one.

his lack of enthusiasm is making me less enthusiastic as well, LOL
I’m can’t wait for the spacejams i’m Coppin 2 pair.
Dayuuum!! I cant wait to have these.
WELL WHAT CAN I SAY RETRO HAVENT BEEN KNOW FOR THE A-1 QUAILITY BUT I COMPLETELY MISSED OUT ON THE FIRST RELEASE SO THESE ARE A MUST COPP REGARDLESS…BUT LIKE I SAID WITH THE QUAILTY ISSUE MULTIPLE COPP IS NOW A “IF”…IF SO IS GOING TO BE A THE BABY PAIR…..
For some reason I’m not as excited as I should be for these space jams(along with all these “heat” releases in 2010)
The release date as of right now is December 24th… not Black Friday as first reported.
The quailty is what it is, but if u missed in the first release you have to cop these none the less. So I will cop a pair but maybe multiples if I feel there decent enough, and as far as packaging that part Jb didna very nice job on.
