@SecretSauce_242 жыл бұрын
I watch James Whitner podcasts. He explained the back story and inspiration of the Jordan 2. The A Ma Maniere Jordan 1 and 2 was originally supposed to release as a pack but more so the Jordan 2 could be more highlighted. But Covid played a part in that so it was separate releases. That’s why the 2s have pretty much the exact same details as the jordan 1s

Edit: I think the way they released it as 3,1,2 is a nod to Chicago's area code which is 312. Which apparently there is an Air Jordan Legacy 312 lows. They could've at least used the dreamcel for that ridiculous price. I like the shoe as a display piece, cuz it kinda looked like snow boots on feet. Awesome review 👏 👌

I remember around 10 years ago I bought the Jordan 2.0’s in wolf grey. The only difference was the 360 air unit instead of the solid midsole they normally are. Was a pretty comfortable and decent looking shoe. The wolf grey 2.0’s remind me a lot of the AMM2’s of you squint really hard 😂

Some interesting rumors on why they released the way they did. 312 - Chicago area code 312 - the suppose 1st retro release back in 94/95. With the 3s being the first, then 1s, follow by the 2s. Rumor has it the at 4s are next, which would also mean the 4th retro(1999)

Thanks for another amazing video. As far as the AMM order, I heard someone say that it was to match Chicago’s area code (312). Not sure if that’s true, but MAN, do I love these 2s. I am an Air Jordan 2 superfan, and this is the only 2 collab released recently that I actually like. And in my mind, it’s the best of the AMM Jordans. Better than the 3s (which I love), and way better than the 1s.
@Deasnuts12 жыл бұрын
What?!??!!? Better than the 3s and the 1s?!?!?! I respect your opinion lol. But disagree whole heartedly. I have the 3s and 1s and have no interest in owning these.. and im not opposed to 2s as I have a few pairs.. but the sole on these ruined them for me, looks like a heel on a dress shoe, once I saw that I couldn't unsee it, and it completely ruined the shoe for me as I did want them prior to that realization.
@jstar_the_poet2 жыл бұрын
@@Deasnuts1 Maybe the reasons why you don’t like them are some of the reasons I do. The 2 was meant to be a luxury basketball shoe; this shoe captures the spirit of that, IMO. I also love the AMM 3s. I just like these better. I couldn’t care less about the 1s, honestly.

Shoe of the year contender in my opinion. 1.2.3 based on frequency of wear 3,2,1 based on look, but I see them as a pack. Can’t wait for the 4’s. Lastly 2’s historically haven’t followed the purpose of the original design. Materials are usually plastic. These follow a narrative the 2’s should have received historically which was luxury. The last GR 2’s w/ great materials in my opinion was the candy pack…
