Air Denim


Konate is the fashionista around these parts, but I’d be remiss if I didn’t link to this: Mike 23 is now selling jeans. And if you don’t buy a pair, Charles Oakley and his fist will pay you a visit.

Jordan’s and Levi’s?

TMT says:
Hopefully they are not made from recycled crap like his new shoes.

Have you seen the photos? I’d MUCH rather get punched in the face by Charles Oakley. Two times.

RV says:

Cheryl says:
yeah, but MJ wears his jeans kinda high up–above the navel. don’t know if that’s a good look these days. But then again… oh never mind!

this really pisses me off… cause I had to go to the Jordan party in New Orleans wearing sweatpants thanks to our luggage problems. And now he’s making jeans? Where were you 2 weeks ago MJ? Huh? Answer me!

Sam travels in sweatpants stylish.

Feb.28 at 3:02 pm

RV says:
he should also stop making shoes then, because the leg opening on his jeans are crazy wide, you can’t even see the shoes underneath

Feb.28 at 3:06 pm

RV says:
cheryl, Van Damme may be interested then… and what will the styles be called? Loose fit, Looser fit, and Loosest fit??

What, no skinny jeans?

SLAM: where sweatpants at swank parties happens.

Sam Rubenstein says:
sweatpants at the same party where MJ and Magic were wearing $10,000 suits.

Feb.28 at 3:49 pm

RV says:
its ok Sam, his socks were probably only $30 for the pair

Eboy says:
The Jordan Brand has sold jeans for the better part of 7 years just to be technical.

namik says:
What Eboy said. And they have always been ugly.

Feb.28 at 4:15 pm

RV says:
Eboy, i dont think sweatpants with jean patches count?

Feb.28 at 4:21 pm

Eboy says:
RV, that description is accurate if you consider those jeans, but Jordan Brand jeans, blue, made of denim, way too expensive have been available at exclusive retail sportswear outlets since the turn of the century.

Russ: have you seen the new Jordan-AF1 collabos? I’m guessing you are not impressed.

Feb.28 at 4:47 pm

Ben Osborne says:
I forgot how gangster it was that Sam wore sweatpants to a party attended by Gabrielle Union, Steve Stoute, the aforementioned MJ, at least 6 current NBA All-Stars, and an uncountable number of fly women.

Feb.28 at 4:49 pm

RV says:
oh i was just kidding, can’t believe he actually has something out like that…his stuff has always been pretty expensive, he’d sellout everything if it was at the level of other sport brands and the designs weren’t so out there

Ben: There are many sneaker-related things that I would prefer to pretend never happened. That is one of them.

Feb.28 at 4:54 pm

Russ Bengtson says:
Also, there’s an actual ’streetwear’ company separate from Nike/Jordan called ‘Mike 23.’ I’m not kidding. Their ‘innovation’ is putting elephant print on everything. I’m amazed they haven’t been sued out of existence yet.

TADOne says:
So were the sweatpants as bad as the size x-small Giants Superbowl Champs shirt was? We need pics.

Feb.28 at 6:04 pm

SA says:
Were the sweats at least black? Tell me they were the old tight fitting Russell brand sweats?

Feb.28 at 6:13 pm

Ben Osborne says:
They were really more like windpants, and they weren’t that small. Lucky for Sam I leant him my adidas Gil Zeros, cause on the plane he was wearing flip flops!

He needs to turn to making vegetables. You can obtain a device that plays videos and takes your rectal temperature simutaneously but it’s damn near impossible to buy a tomato that doesn’t take like empty space.

Feb.28 at 7:25 pm

maio says:
G*d $%*! When my grandma used to cut up those tomatoes back in the eighties the entire house smelled like tomatoes! Now? No smell. Fake crap. But yes - we need more jeans.

Feb.28 at 7:27 pm

maio says:
I get upset enough to write “take” instead of “taste”. My anger is genuine, you see.
