Air Jordan 2010 – What If?

820 days ago - by Matt Halfhill - 123 comments

Earlier this morning we gave you the first official look at the Air Jordan 2010 which received some “mixed” reactions from readers. The one element the Air Jordan 2010 that received the most discussion was the “window.” While the circular space provides some added performance features such as extra ventilation and perhaps the ability for one to wear the shoes through airport security, it seemed to be a deal breaker for a few readers.

Nike Basketball has produced several NFW (non-Flywire) makeups for their basketball featuring Flywire tech putting fashion over function. Perhaps could we see a Air Jordan 2010 NW (no window)? Let us know your thoughts about the two versions of the AJ 2010′s.

tha window succs and these aren’t that bad, why make it worse by adding tha window =\

The shoe without window looks like Under Armour BB Prototype !!
joeyg-23
leave out the window.
Mr.swagger
The overall sneaker is cool minus the window. That has to be the worse idea in the history of kicks windows are for homes and car.
vbman
can’t hate on the window. i just wish it wasn’t just a plain circle, would’ve been dope if it was a JB brand or something of that nature
clifford
give that shoe a NIKE SIGN…..NIKE SIGN NIKE SIGN NIKE SIGN NIKE SIGN
iT WOULD LOOK SO MUCH BETTTER…….you can see it it would look tight!!!!
IMRICH4LIFE
With the window or without the window still a terrible shoe.
chad
much better without
hyestylekid
Thats it right there thats a whole lot better maybe even the jumpman logo on the inside imma cop these just not for 170 and yes im talking about the ones withthe window hopefully they drop theblack pair
this guy says…
the window aint a bad idea. a circle doesnt cut it though

WHAT HAPPEND TO THE JORDAN SHOE DESIGN WINNERS!?!?!?
yeah-yeah
i’d rather buy the new lebrons than this..dont like this 25′s. WHAT IF….they redesign the shoe from the scratch. most people dont like it anyway.

I play in low cuts anyway so I’m looking forward to the AJ 2010 Lows – NO portholes please.

i totally agree with the homie Devon.
since the “The Last Shot” MJ’s the line has fallen off.
I’m certain MJ does not care about the shoe nearly as much if at all as when he did when he was still active in the league.
I know MJ does not care about his shoes nearly as much as you sneaker heads do.
The retros represent a completely different time in sports and Nike in general.
I’m convinced the nordan line will never reach its previous success again.
Time to either improve or pass the torch(CP 3?)
These aint cuttin and are a disgrace and discredit to the legacy of Jordan Sneakers, simply put.

Looks like wade’s converse shoe… I’d rather go for 2009 ADIDAS PRO MODELS.
RALPH ERIC
They put a window in it… they might as well put a chimney and a door.
chi city
i didnt no that bringing the converse designers were one of the stipulations for wade joining the jordan brand?
Springs
If anything they should put a jumpman window in

Lebron James the New Shoe KING!
Ok, with that windowbeing close makes it a little better PLEASE JORDAN BRAND STOP THE RELEASE OF THIS SHOE AND GO BACK 2 THE LAB AND CLOSE THE WINDOW,NO MATTER HOW MUCH WE WANT WE COULD NEVER GET A LOOK INTO JORDANS LIFE THROUGH A SHOE,PLEASE STOP THE RELEASE AND CLOSE THE WINDOW THIS IS 4 UR OWN GOOD CAUSE I MIGHT BE JUST ONE OF FEW WHO GET THIS SHOE…….
Lebron James the New Shoe KING!
Another question i have is putting this shoe on how strong is this shoe and will the part where the window is come apart at somtime,or how strong is the plastic window.
ramses
its horrible but i buy!!!!
P.O.P.E.
better w/o the whole but i was done jordans after the xx3. just og colorway retros for me
jerry24
They should put curtains in the window.
d
better with no window. add a jumpman logo in there somewhere and knock $20 off the price and theyre sold for me
wyteboy
no window and add the design from the black xx3 and ill buy em
maine 23
they still look lame to me
Juan_P
i think if the window was a different shape they would look better, without it it looks too plain. perhaps they couldve even incorporated some flywire, instead of the window
frugstar
the window is so jb can sell us 2010 commerative socks with jumpman positioned just inside the window oh and they’ll charge us a fortune for the pleasure!
Rc
no. thats all i gotta say.
5starathlete
what if? i’ll tell u what if…
they’ll still be horrible
UglyFinder
Am I the only one who thinks the window is awesome?
Loveskateshoes_FW
With or without window, these AJ 2010 were lack of graceness…
I just lost my words thru it…
Tinker Hatfield were my hero since I were a kid…
And he’s design were one aspect that I would take my future to Product Design majored College…
And now, After 25 Years life span of AJ Shoes, this happen…
I now Tinker might have something slip in his head…
Knock…
don
NO WINDOW!
necya
ugly, since 11 years. great
K.Clark
No Window..Instead there should be a Jumpman inprinted where the window once was..
DREakaLOUISv
wtf happend to jordan where r the old designers who made jordan’s 2-14 after that jordan died to me that’s why i only ware og’s and sb’s
bigballz45
i could see titties through that ho ima do it all nite like a squirrel
Sleaze
no window in an all black and cement colorway and every kid in america has these on his feet. the window is the worst part of the shoe. everything else is clean and simple like a return to several models of the jordan line. i think these could be great shoes…wheres some low tops w/o windows?
aayush
i think. the windows fly..
the window shouldn’t be that tiny..
it should encompass.. something..be functionable.. not be there just for show..
just not JB brand style
phillip
The window makes it look different…..why not make the window with a jumpman sign instead….perhaps in this colorway, the same circular window shape..that would be black and the jumpman sign in a more see through colorway…so basically a little bit smaller circle in black, and in the middle of it, the jumpman sign with a portion of his arm and the ball and his feet outside of the circle
TAF be the flyest
NO WINDOW PLEASE!
The window makes it look like those Fake Js they used to sell on the side of the street! lol.
Or those Fake See Thru Air Force Ones… Ughhhh… Talk about UGLY!!!!
BIGGJAY
THE WINDOW IS THE MAIN ATRACTION, WHY ARE YALL HATING ON THESE?
vickslawyer7
its looks plain without the window, thw window makes the shoe and is tight
Young Rebel
DREakaLOUISv, the designer who designed the 3s to the 15s including the 23s was Tinker Hatfield (famous sneaker designer). The 2010s were designed by Tinker Hatfield as well as Mark Smith (another famous sneaker designer). Everybody that’s hating should just give them a chance.
ihatehaters
man. all y`all haters need to quit with the hate crimes. just cause if you rocked this shoes you wouldn`t be able to ball your whiney the poo and pink fuzzy socks doesnt mean you should come up dissin this fresh sneaks
