Yeah, there were a bunch that had that. I don't think there were any major blemishes though. Did you notice any on your pair?

Honestly, I thought my pair was flawless except for one very very very minute and inconsequential detail.
With regards to the toebox, some of the holes were white underneath instead of uniformly black like the holes at toebox should be.

I waited it out in Aurora and got my size 11 and I'm pretty satisfied. What I really want to know is why are there people bulk buying these on eBay? I've seen a few different people who have bought a good 10+ pairs for over $300. What are they doing with them since they are already paying re-seller prices?

 

[crumps brother]

^puttin' them on ice

possibly people overseas

Could use some better lighting but here's my final verdict. Honestly it's a great shoe! I wouldn't even bother comparing them to anything previously. They're a great pair of shoe! Sizing fits the same as the previous pairs. Leather is really soft and buttery which is a plus for a change! I almost want to say there's no need for a break-in period. Very comfortable to wear and good cushioning. Honestly you probably won't find a future release with the Nike Air on the tongue ever, but I could be wrong. They fit great, looks great, and feels great so no complains. I'm just gonna keep it simple and give them 2 thumbs up

Here's a pic

Woah, I was responding to a post that pulled a disappearing act.

So, who's tried to take the X off of the back?

Someone post pics of this.

I don't think anyone is taking the risk at the moment since the X means something.
But I wouldn't mind seen pictures without the X.

 

[killajay209]

marvelous pics Optimus/ can't wait to evaluate my pair as well

 

[never wear them]

Who's actually attempted to take out the insole?

Don't know why they decided to glue these... Unless my pair is the only one that's glued. I been wanting to pull em out to insert some thick insoles but it's a no go. Oh well. They're still comfortable regardless.

Yeah, it probably wouldn't be enough to call a "B" grade though....Atleast by NT standards. I have a pair that came in a regular black/grey Jordan box with no "B" grade stamp and there were smudges of dirt on BOTH shoes. So, I'm assuming the "B stamps" were just random.

red or black laces?

Mine were glued, but like all my J's I pull the insoles up and put in my own that are WAY more comfortable (and save the og insoles for better resale). They came up without any issue at all. I don't see what you're risking. They didn't come close to tearing or really even resisting.

Definitely the red laces.

 

[dj proto j]

black laces, all day...

got my 2 pairs in the mail today. both are flawless. tongue tags are placed and sewn in right, everything.

one shoe of each pair has the circled "B" stamp on the tag, but i just smudged one of them off with my thumb.

and i wouldn't personally try to take the red X off the back. this release's concept is pretty cool and the shoe is kinda special.

not even sure when i'll get around to unDSing these tho, as i still have a mega clean pair of 2001's i wear.

My 8.5 pair have "if...?" On left and right pair. I thought its real cool major flaw for a b-grade.

 

[heatmeizer1]

Black laces is the only way to go.

 

[leclutchjames]

Black laces on Jordan 1s is the only way to go. red laces just look silly.

I think if both of my shoes had "If" I would be so ticked off.
Thankfully, I had "Imagine" on the left and "If" on the right.
