Air Jordan 17 Black/Metallic Silver Countdown Package
Posted by Matt Halfhill | Feb 3, 2008| Just last week we gave you a first look of the Jordan 6 Carmines that will be part of the Jordan 17/6 Countdown Package. Today we have received shots of the other half of the package - the Black/Metallic Silver Jordan 17.
This time around Jordan uses a black nubuck for the upper rather than smooth leather. For heads this is something of a blessing since the smooth leather on the originals wrinkled quite easily leaving permanent creases with minimal wear. Frankly, we would have rather seen the White/Blue or White/Red color drop, but Jordan Brand has to keep us hungry for more past ‘08 right? Look for these and the Carmine 6’s to drop May 24th.

Jblaze why split up the pack man. At least keep the 17’s so you can it for a collectors item. Because 10 years from now just think how much this will be worth
May 24, 2008 at 3:44 pm

i just bought the 17/6 package yesterday, i love the 6 carmines!! lol but yea i wore the 17s today, cant figure how to lace it like the way it is in the pic, i took the top part over the laces off though lol it looked weird.
May 15, 2008 at 10:50 pm
I was jus about to get these until i went and seen them in person….instead of havin four shoe holes like the ones up top THEY ONLY HAVE THREE…they is really f’in up at nike right now. its one thing to change the material, but to change THE F’N SHOE! wen i see a jordan reps, ima smack the ish outta them okayin this
May 14, 2008 at 3:17 pm
The 6 Carmines are the TRUTH! The 17’s…hmmm NOT SO MUCH. They could of at least given us the White/Black/gold with the crocodile pattern. Now those would be worth it. Can we at least get a suitcase?…where is the love

May 3, 2008 at 2:14 am
17’s is pretty decent lowkey but the CARMINES makes this a great pack

Not feeling these at all. Package will be copped strictly because of the Carmine VI’s. I know the leather ones creased easily but the nubuck makes them look too worn. These will be definitely be sold

Feb 3, 2008 at 12:39 pm
smooth
Feb 3, 2008 at 12:09 pm
Da 17s are fresh
Feb 3, 2008 at 11:57 am
these r nice, but regardless the Carmine VI’s already sold me this package. I wonder what pack gonna come out in APRIL since march is the 14/9 and now may is the 17/6?
Feb 3, 2008 at 11:46 am
hope the come with a suitcase…..smh bout these nike air lovers…
Feb 3, 2008 at 11:45 am
Yo The Carmines and the 17’s are the livest package! Ima cop these for sure
Feb 3, 2008 at 11:33 am
I understand about the smooth leather creasing on the originals but that nubuck looks horrible to me
Feb 3, 2008 at 11:12 am
need better pics. from wat i see not too hyped up. wish we could get the blue/white joints. i think those r the best.
Feb 3, 2008 at 11:11 am
man i’m coppin’ this package, ya dig.
Feb 3, 2008 at 10:46 am
We’re moving servers right now and making some changes. Hang tight!
Feb 3, 2008 at 10:28 am
… idk.
Feb 3, 2008 at 10:07 am
Damn……..Is there a way I can edit my comment? Now I look like the dumba–. When are the forums gonna be ready?
Feb 3, 2008 at 10:04 am
I love most of the Black/Metallic colorways. Red just isnt my color. How is the box going to look like? They should make a box similar to the box the 17s came in.
Feb 3, 2008 at 9:11 am
^ Give me a shout when you want to sell these for $50 - I’ll take any size
Feb 3, 2008 at 8:58 am
Not a fan of ANY Jordans past the 14’s,so these shoes I will sell for like $50.Oh yeah,not a Jordan Brand fan either,strickly NIKE fan.Oh when will I see the 3’s,4’s,5’s,6′ with NIKE in the back being released again!???? Nike, do us OG collectors a favor and kick JB to the CURB!!!Those Team J’s are TRASH.
Feb 3, 2008 at 8:54 am
So far this is my favorite package out of the 3 that I have seen both colors for. I was looking forward to this package as well as the Jordan 16/7 package as well. I would have preferred to see White/Red since there are a lot of black based shoes coming this year, but I guess I’ll have to wait another year or two
Feb 3, 2008 at 8:52 am
The originals looked soooo much better. The leather is what brung out the sneaker, regardless if it got creases when you walked. If you kno how to take care of shoes it shouldnt have been a problem
Feb 3, 2008 at 8:48 am
this pretty much sells this package for me. im really happy with the 6s and the 17s are nice too.
Feb 3, 2008 at 8:32 am
im feelin that package especially the 2’s. I had the low cuts of that shoe a few yerars back.
Feb 3, 2008 at 8:22 am
i had these wen i was little they look the same to me
Feb 3, 2008 at 8:20 am
1st comment
they look fresh….but da nubuck looks worn out but stilll defintely coppin 2 pair
Feb 3, 2008 at 8:19 am
Yeah!!!….FIRST…..These are a must!!!!….to bad we don’t get to see the white/red or white/blue….Anywayz definitely gettin these…
