I’m grabbing the 2019 ether way. This has been one of my favorite sneakers for a while

Thanks, I can clearly see the heel having a different material, or process done to give the appearance of having a different material.
 
How is it false if they're from air.jordan.com. Also if they were restored then the person didn't do a good job (you can still see the cracks in the midsole).

You picked the one picture that doesn't represent the heel contrast out of the bunch that showed it well, lol. It's like talking to a little kid, I swear. You can clearly see the shoes were restored, but they left the aged look on purpose, cracks, faded/off color Durabuck...ect.
 
I only nitpick these so much because I love them. I was born in 2000 so I never got the honor of seeing these on MJ's feet in '91 as the bulls won their first championship, let alone see them on my own feet or other people's. I just wanted these to be close enough to the original release to make up for that, like with the '18 Concords. I'm in college and I don't have the money nor the time to hunt down a pair of '91s in pristine condition so I can have them sole swapped. These nike air retros are as close as I'll ever get to owning the originals in wearable condition without costing me a fortune. So when JB makes the concords near identical to the '95 release in terms of build and perhaps even quality, it bothers me that they didn't do the same with these. I'll still get a pair for sure because but I had hoped for a little more effort I guess.

I saw all I needed. In for 2 pair. Y’all can argue over the details me personally as long as they got that toe box and color of red fixed everything else is just a bonus. I was born in 96 never had an OG or 2000 in my possession.

What pictures are we referencing? I thought there hadn't been any official release pics yet. And what's so wrong with them that's got everyone complaining? I'm pretty fussy as well so might pass on these if they're wack. Had the og's and the 2000.
 
I'm gonna say they have never released these as a true retro.... Simple reason, the back half of the OG was leather... the Nike Air stitched over that black leather.... that's a real retro.
 
i dont care for the back... i would take the 2014 version with nike air, fix toe box and change red... the 2014 look more pink than the 2000 pair
 
In all honesty, me personally, I wish they could just make the pods on the sides layered like the OG.

That’s my BIGGEST gripe with the retros.

Instead, they give us that lazy stitching and call it a day :{
 
Damn, was really hoping for the White cut edges of the Leather on the upper like the OG, having that really makes the shoe imo.... SMH oh well?
 
VI’s run/ran big.

I had the black/red 2010’s and they were solid.

2 pair min god willing.
 
The problem is that I think we all prioritize OG features differently and see different pieces as things that “make this shoe”.

For me it’s the shape, the high tongue, and the right shade of Infrared. NA of course.

Don’t get me wrong I’d love a contrast heel but if I got everything else I’d be happy.
