Mike playing in them would have helped a bit but even still it was a HUGE step down from the 14, even Tinker admitted this. That tongue sticking forward wasn’t it, and they felt like bricks on foot.
EDIT: can yall fix the site CONSTANTLY refreshing? Seems like it’s getting worse.
The more pics I see the more difficult it is to resist doubling up. These might just be the best Jordan retro ever besides 99’ 4’s and the 2015 Aquas/2018 Shadow 10.
I went tts on both these and the Re-BC’s. They both feel pretty different from one another but I would not size down on either one. The Reimagineds are definitely more comfortable though.
My opinion falls somewhere in the middle. Are these premium quality leather? No, not imo. But as far as I can tell, neither were the OGs. They aren’t terrible either though, like 2012 MB or the absolute atrocities that were the 2011 BC 3.
I honestly think later model Jordans during the 90’s...
Looking at the comparison on the previous page I didn’t see anything that stood out on the OG that made it look like they have a better quality leather. To be fair, I’ve never owned a pair of OG 4’s before, but the eye test tells me the quality on the og leather was pretty similar to what we got...
It should be that simple, but unfortunately it isn’t. These definitely feel different on foot than the 2020 Fire Reds or even Reimagined BC, just as an example.
In the newer 4’s, I go tts, but I wouldn’t be able to do that with the 2019 BC for instance, had to go up half a size or my pinky toe...
Idk, I think I hit the jackpot with this pair if you ask me lol. I’m usually not ever one to say I got the best pair of any shoe, but after going back through the last 50 or so pages lll say it now, I have one of the top 3 pairs posted so far. No question. Has nothing to do with the factory...
For the record, do NOT size down on these. I usually go UP half a size in 4’s but I went with my TTS 11 with these and they fit PERFECTLY even with shoe shields. This new mold is how 4’s SHOULD always be.
Man I absolutely LOVE these. We just need WC and Fire Reds done like this now.
On feet. Man these are so nice. I’m almost tempted to double up but not gonna. Much as I like them I won’t wear these enough to justify more than 1 pair. Definitely not as comfortable as the Reimagineds, but absolutely better than the 2019 Breds or 2020 Fire Reds.
I was hoping people would try...
