If you were anywhere near social media or any form of sneaker news within the last 48 hours, you’ve heard the news, first as a rumor and then officially. Jordan Brand has switched the release dates for the “72-10” XI’s from the 19th to the 12th and the “Chrome” VIII’s from the 26th to the 19th, sending sneakerheads all over the world into a frenzy.

It’s that time of year again. XI SZN.

The hype machine revs up every December when Jordan drops an XI, and it’s in full swing currently with the release a little over two weeks away. There’s a good chance everyone you know is hitting you up for a pair (get ready for the “what’s good fam?” texts from people you hardly speak to), and there’s a good chance you want a pair for yourself as well.

As this is one of the biggest Jordan releases every year, and the “72-10” is an entirely new colorway, I figured it would be only right to give you my thoughts and likes/dislikes on the sneaker. Let’s get into it. read more
