Second, I just downloaded these and I'm thankful that you also spent time on the shoes. I'm a huge sneaker head, I have 187 pairs and that is not including all of my golf cleats (i have at least 8 pairs of Jordan cleats and many more Nike golf shoes. Off topic Nike is releasing the Nike Air TN golf shoes with 7 different colourways). I just wish that 2K would scan more shoes from the 90's. In my opinion that was peak Jordan and Nike basketball. Also, I spend more time making the different colourway of the different shoes worn by players than I do actually playing the game. This roster will help me play more.

Third and most importantly, THANK YOU for the time and effort put into this roster. I would honestly love to see what you could do if 2K allowed you to edit shoes and stuff of that nature that PC users can. Again, thank you. This 51 year old sneaker head truly appreciates it.
Thank you for the kind words Mike.

I'm a fellow sneaker head myself. Speaking of golf, my MyPlayer in PGA Tour 2K23 only wears Jordans--Eastside 4's, White 1's, Wolf Grey 1's and Chicago 1's.

It's tough putting out the kind of complete roster you would like to because users don't have access to your created shoes. For instance, in my personal Jordan Era roster, MJ wears created Hare VII's (below) and not the Carmine VI that I was kind of forced to have him wear. Of course some brands do not match what the player wore in real life (Patrick Ewing for example), but I tried to keep that to a minimum while focusing on the shoes that most closely resembled what a player wore.

I have 24 created Jordan's in the game--22 for MJ and 2 for Kobe (below) in his Era since he wore the Jordan VIII more than any other shoe that season.

It was a pleasure doing this because I like attention to detail but I love shoes even more.
