Squeaky Jordans

[Guest jbinn]

All mine squeek too actually and one pair sounds like a rush of air is escaping with every step.... Ar you relatively heavy because I know I am, that could be the problem

Also they call them Nike Air or Air Jordans for a reason... Theres something in the heel called Nike Air Max that cushions... The only way you got a hole in that is from a stick or something cause after 4 years my Nike Air Dunks still hold air. If you're getting air leaks , buy new shoes l ol

like i said, my shoes are ALL new. Even the ones that are a year old have super low miles on them.

shits generic but i know ill be back at the store this week lookin for a new pair again LOL.

oh and the guy who said Lugz - i only wear lugz and jordans but the lugz are more of a black leather boot and not a sneaker.

U need to stop buying jordans from the guy on the corner of manzanita.. Lol I'm playin..I guess I've been getting lucky all the jordans I have owned never squeeked but I do have 2 pair of nike shoes that do squeek and that's the rerason I never wear them...honestly since I found steve meade on youtube I don't buy jordans anymore just because everythng goes in to audio lOl and I usually end up buying expenssive ass ones theb I wear em to play ball.. I remember the limited jordan spizikes red and black came out on 23isback.com I paid 499 for them... Only to let a friend barrow them for a month got then back all turfed...I almost fell haha

i dont know if someone has said this because i only read a couple post but i own about 19, 20 pairs of jordans and only jordans that have make any noise are my spizikes i have a few pair of them and they all did it but only thing i tired and it worked i found it on a shoe forum is to lift up the soles and pour baby powder under the soles that stopped all the noises coming from my shoes:)

ok so i own probably 10 or 11 pair of Jordans.......but im not a shoe collector type of guy that lets them sit in a box, i just like the ones i like and i buy em' to wear em'. I own enough pairs of them to where the rotation keeps them clean and all that good stuff. So what really pisses me off is, you have a shoe that costs $110-$160 a pair you think you are getting high quality right? Here comes my rant......why do ALL my Jordans eventually start to "Squeak" when i walk? Its happened before and i just wrote it off as wear and tear but these shoes have VERY low mileage on them....in fact i have 2 OLD pair of jordans i wear when im working in the shop or doing some other recreation where they will get abused. The ones i wear when i am clean really only get worn around the house and if out in public, just basic walking or driving and thats it. I wear them to work but i sit in my office all day on a computer so thats nothing really.

Anyway, im really annoyed by this, does anyone else who actually wears their Jordans, have a problem with them Squeaking? Im walking across carpet here at work and it sounds like im walking on a freshly waxed gym floor. You can hear me a mile away LOL.

is it my posture or the way i walk maybe? im not pigeon toed (my alignment is good LOL), and im not club footed, flat footed or boot-legged....i dont get it.

i might need me a new favorite shoe, yes its coming to that.

ever think aynthing you do is just loud? thats just your sneakers bustin off a 4khz sine wave

[J00bles]

either you blew them out, or you pronate when you walk

im a shoe salesman by trade

i have about 20 pair myself that i wear daily...what ive found that causes the squeeking is the "nike air" sole thats in them the glue messes up really fast now and they start to creek and squeek pretty fast. i wear mine to work every day and have pairs for clean use and the same thing happens, im not heavy for my size really im 5 foot 10 and 205 so i dont think weight is my issue, i think they just make them cheaper

[C-Fizzy]

Shit i have a pair of 1's that squeaked since day one.

but i dont wear 'em anymore so its not a big deal to me.

i didnt blow them out. They are too new for that unless they are that goddamn cheap..i dont hoop in them and i dont Jog (i need to though, i know LMAO)

i dont even know what "pronate" means but i think i have a normal step to my stride...anyway i think its just a bullshit shoe that i still like very much - but its bullshit that they do that.

this sounds logical and sounds exactly like my problem. Also, i am 5'8 and 220......not exactly Slim-Pickens, but not exactly morbidly obese either.

i honestly love the shoes brand new, they feel great and are super light.......they look good too - but your right bro, they are makin them cheaper. That sucks ass since its a damn expensive shoe.
