Squeaky Jordans

[meade916]

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.

Unless I intentionally try... mine never really squeak, unless I take a weird step or something, and that's usually on the hardwood in my house or some other type of smooth surface. I think you buy magical Jordans. lol.

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

My friend said if they don't squeak then you know they aren't real...all his J's squeak

I believe its only the numbered ones because of the leather-like (not sure what it is) material that's used

my shoes always squeak after the air pocket blows.

Well mine are real they are all from hibbit sports which is an authorizeddealer. But mine always squeek either when there brand new then they stop or after a while when they get old.

^^^ this happened a lot to me while running cross country. Any show with an air pocket in the heel is prone to popping the seal and making a super-irritating squeaky noise with every step. Some shoes make an uber-squeaky noise, like walking on a waxed basketball court, while others just make a really quiet one.
