i bought a pair of jordans off east bay a couple of years ago.
i think i used them once for bball and then i didn't play since. i remember that time though, i got blisters on my feet, toes.
i chalked that up to me not playing ball in awhile, or the sneakers needing to be broken in.

i've started playing ball again and used my k-swiss walking sneakers because i couldn't find my jordans. they were fine except for the lack of ankle support.

i finally found my jordans and they F'ING SUCK. 2 games of bball (1 hour) and i got blisters again on my toes and soles, cuts on the top of my toes, scrapes on my achilles <- WTF.
i could barely walk off the court after game 2 because of the cuts.

i know it's not my feet now since i was fine in my kswiss.

can i return these to nike?
i thought i heard somewhere they have a pretty good return policy.

They sound like they don't fit. Maybe you needed a different width. Besides you should know J's are for stylin...

If basketball shoes need break in, why do pro players wear a new pair every game? You suck. kswiss is for metros.

You get calluses that fast? You mean you don't get blisters first ;)? Also, the rubber and what not has probably seized on the shoes from lack of wear...

Seriously, you want to return shoes from a "few years ago" though?

Nike isn't going to give you your money back. You need to do what me and Cartman did when The Passion sucked... you need to take up your problem with Jordan himself.

Good luck with that!

If they haven't changed for a few years, you could buy new ones, replace them with your old ones since there's probably barely any wear, and then sell them on ebay as new. I wouldn't advocate this, though, because it's highly unethical.

Oh so true.. I agree.

In general, I find that skateboarding shoes are GREAT shoes. They're pretty comfy and last for a long time since they're built like tanks. If you shop around, you can pick up a nice pair for 30 bucks :)

umm.. you know that there are hundreds of jordan models?

which specific pair did you buy? not all of them are for basketball, a lot are for casual use.
