[Air Jordan]AJ小讲坛之aj4 mars 白红收藏
继续aj4 ，今天带来的是2006年发售的白黑红，mars配色，十分普通的一个配色，也在2012年再次复刻，但是这次复刻没有引入李导演的小脑袋。其实mars 与普通白黑红的最大区别这就是那个小脑袋。话不多说 上图 鞋盒镇楼。。。
姚总又来发帖了
又可以涨知识了
姚总的帖子必须顶！！
一看这鞋子就是被姚总怒操无数次了
其实吧，李导演的脑袋出现在正代上也就2～3次，20的镭射鞋面，15laser版的鞋面，市售版应该就这么几个了，大家都知道斯派克里给乔丹拍了各种正代广告，这个头像这是李导演最具标志性的头像，带着大黑框眼镜，探着脑袋时不时的出现在镜头中。
名字是mars blackmon吧？就是乔丹好多广告里那个带布鲁克林鸭舌帽的矮冬瓜好像是那个肥皂剧里他叫mars blackmon
每对新人结婚成功的那一刻，送礼最多的吧友可以获得本次求婚的“月老”称号和成就,
非常棒。AJ4。
其实还有一双有mars 头像的是黑白蓝配色 全名叫 Air Jordan Retro 4 Mars Motorsport。当然这种PE sample 我是没有，太稀少了，只能盗图给大家开开眼这双是老爷子自己的尺码。
好吧，今天再来一双老鞋子，(我也已经记不清这双发过了没有，如果发过了跟我说一下)
Air zoom generation . 壮哉我大詹皇，asg 配色。个人认为最好看的lbj鞋。
其实也不能说是全明星配色，因为不是正赛穿着版。不过2014年要复刻啦。
跟着姚总各种张知识
后跟都粉了呢
额…麂皮怎么护理的，给这保存功力跪了

Further changes came with the use of a carbon fiber spring plate in the clear out sole, giving the shoe better torque when turning on the court. The highlight and arguably most well-known aspect of the shoe is the patent leather mudguard. Patent leather was lightweight, when compared to genuine leather, and also tended not to stretch as much – a property to help keep the foot within the bounds of the shoe bed during direction changes on the court.

Son of Mars is a sneaker directly influenced by Spike Lee’s longtime involvement with the brand, as the shoe pieces together models in which Spike (or
rather) had a hand in launching.
The shoe breakdown begins with elements from the first
years, Mars B Lee's loudmouthed character first appeared alongside Michael Jordan for the release of the Air Jordan III, a sneaker whose immediately recognizable elephant print bookends the Jordan Son of Mars, with sectioning on the back end and towards the toe. Next the Air Jordan IV, which is pretty conspicuous in this hybrid release, shows up only in the form of the netting running below the laces. The sole gottem ion is all Air Jordan V, as the coveted icy treatment splashes across the bottom and the angular 'teeth' of the midsole rear up towards the toe. The V actually extends its reach to the top end too, with the textured Jumpman tongue bursting out from the familiar see-through lacelocks. Building up the ankle area is the higher-hitting support of the Air Jordan VI, complete with the attached loop on back and the perforated paneling reaching up the side of the shoe. The midsection which completes the sneaker is a major fast-forward, leaping ahead to the Air Jordan XX in the form of the lasered strap.
