Jordan Tatum 2: An Improvement on the Tatum 1?
The Jordan Tatum 2 is a very different shoe to the Tatum 1 which might be a good thing, but, how do they actually perform on court?
Jordan Brand Officially Unveils the Super.Fly 3
These look great and the 2 was pretty good. I think these will be a more comfortable fit with the material used and even better lock down. I just wish they would have added a zoom unit to the heel. But it is nice to see Jordan Brand performance models at good price points with great attributes.
i fixed that by putting janoski insoles in my pair can’t say it made a huge difference but it is a noticeable improvement
Cool beans
Weirdly I hated the superfly 2 because I felt the zoom bag was unstable and cause my entire shooting form to be disorganized. Hopefully this won’t be a prob but in my opinion lunarlon and pudulon should have been used
Well they DID create the shoe built for high flying explosive players, that’s why the zoom is so huge because its built for players who are constantly moving, cutting, attacking, and rebounding. HDs are good for you because of its low to the ground consistent and stable feel.
These remind me of Dwayne wade’s 2nd shoe on jordan brand before he switched to Li Ning….MAN!..don’t know how I feel about these yet…
Very curious to try these on when they release. I personally haven’t had an issue with the Unlocked Zoom with my XX8 SE’s and the shoes took a beating in 10 Competitive League Games I played in. So if Nike improved on the Unlocked Zoom that can only be a plus. And who doesn’t love the Flight Plate? Again, curious to see how they improved on it as well. I’m sure we can all agree that we’ll be waiting for Nightwing’s Performance Review on these after they’re released.
I’m with the first poster in that I wish that they would add some heel cushioning. I have the 2s, like them, but can feel a huge difference after I play in them. I feel like my body has taken a nasty beating!
i was waiting so long for these to come out and here they finally are. i got the two’s and these look even better
Agreed on heel zoom. There’s really no excuse not to have it at $140. Hopefully they solved the Toebox height to be a little taller. The 2 was a little low and had a rough surface that would rub your pinky raw.
that mesh-like material on the upper makes it look like the kobe 7….not one of my favorite looking shoes
ps i love the fact that in the promo picture blake griffin is reminding us that he has a reliable stepback jumper now…
It’s a step back dunk actually.
Would be an intriguing shoe if it had heel zoom. I play too much on my heels to not have zoom back there…
The foam should be just as good for impact protection in the heel. I know a guy in my gym who plays on his heels all the time and he gets crossed up too much. Playing on the heels is difficult to react even marginally faster to what your brain thinks.
I have the SF 2 and i gotta say that i’m glad they removed the plastic outrigger of the flightplate.
that little f*cker rubbed the outside of my foot like crazy.
might cop these when they get a discount.
I’m just wanting to know if the zoom will pop, my sf2 popped after less than 4 months of playing mostly once a week.
These actually look really promising. What is so re engineered about the flight plate?
i hope these are not as clunky as the 2s. i too am skeptical about the traction, but we’ll see.
Can’t Wait to see the Kawhi Leonard Championship versions. And hopefully they sell them.
Got the SF2 based on NW’S review. They are perfect for me. Good to see they kept the forefoot zoom set up the same.
i totally pushed these aside when i saw a picture of them with the zoom bag the XX8 way but knowing they’ve fixed that i have to buy a pair of these
I can’t wait for these, they look beastly! But I wish they put zoom in the heel as well. I’m glad they redesigned the flightplate system!!
lol #6 synthetic overlays on the HELL and toe
cmon nike! use spell check!
Does not having cushioning such as Zoom, Lunarlon in the heel really make that big of a difference to you guys? I thought that the foam they used was quite soft back there in the heel area? I figured it might not be that big of a deal that they don’t have one of their main cushioning techs back there in the heel.
Didn’t the original Super.flys actually have Lunarlon in the heel and Zoom up front? I wonder why they didn’t stick with that setup.
It’s the other way around: forefoot-lunarlon & heel-zoom
i think the sf2 is fine, though, the foam in the back is actually pretty nice, no complaints at all from me
going to wait for the performance review on both the rose 5s and theses because of the traction. Hopefully i can cop both but if it comes down to it id rather have the rose 5s because of boost
They look like they can and will perform, but I can never trust a pair of unlocked zoom shoes again after playing the constant zoom pop Nike refund game with the XX8s and XX8 SE. I’m only 188 lbs, 6’1″ before you all start calling me fat. 😛
Would love to see some more JB signature foam cushioned Js in the future other than the CP3.
Will cop of course loved the 2
Is the upper woven cant tell for sure but it looks like it, also seems like JB is going to be using flightweb on all their “higher end” models.
Simple I like it might cop (after the hyperdunk 2014) it looks really simple which is really good
