Jumpman brand has evolved over the years. The brand started in 1985 and released basketball sneakers, but now in 2008 they have altered their collection line to include a skate shoe. In July you can expect to see the release of Jumpman’s second skateboarding shoe. If you haven’t noticed the resemblance, the Flipsyde Jordans took their inspiration from the Air Jordan 3 (III). They feature a Nubuck/Suede upper, a thin visible air unit, and a thick sole for extra cushioning. There will be several colorways releasing throughout 2008, the first of which will be the black pair above and will release on July 1, 2008.

i dont like the flipsydes at all. I doubt i ever will. I dont like the pattern on the upper half of them either. I dont really see how they took inspiration from the jordan 3s either. They just look ugly in their own unique way in my opinion.
