See, this suede topic always seems to pop up so I figured ill start picking some of you Vet's brains for a little insight.
What do you guys deem to be buttery suede? I have never owned SOMP'S, Quartersnacks, YOTH, Pink Box, or Black box SB's so please don't use those as a comparison. I personally thought the suede on the DLS low was pretty good. I use the finger swipe method, if it fades and feels good its good with me Would you say the suede on a pair of j packs highs is pretty decent? Or the suede on the Uprise highs was better quality? Or is this good suede convo more of a biased opinion then actual stated facts, if that makes sense...?

The pack highs was just ok. The suede was the best part but in no way high quality.
The uprise was better, but if you're thinking of buttery, you should go feel up the swoosh on the heinekens or the nubuck on those or slam city's. There's just no comparison to the new stuff.
However, the uprise, quarters and DLS IS ABOUT as good as it gets these days.
SOMP is nubuck so I won't add that, but it is smooth.

my suede opinion is biased because I had the privilege of owning and rockin the 'older box years' dunks and I agree that we're not gonna get that old suede stuff anymore...either because it's unavailable or it just costs Nike too much to use...who knows....maybe one day....a man can dream!
the nappy suede on the bao's was pretty decent.
@Slushman2007 the finger test is a good start for the suede quality...but for me, it usually takes a few wears to determine the quality of suede, especially if the majority of the shoe is suede...I need that comfort factor!
i'll agree with @theLtrain on his take with 'as good as it gets these days'

Ahh okay that clears the smoke a bit. So does this better suede not crease as easy after wears? Or is it more of a longevity factor. Thanks for the help fellas!

Good suede looks better over time and it a lot more malleable so its comfy over time

As far as 1's go I only own the Craig Stecyk's and LM's and I do everything I can to avoid all jordans but those Chi's will get my bread without hesitation.

Only 20 so can't really talk too much on that
But even what? 6/7 years ago things were so much tamer
