Never thought that the creasing of a shoe would become an issue. Wear your Js. Walk with a comfortable stride. Wear them with pride. Unless you plan on stocking them on your closet for the rest of your life.

Here's my pair from NOsneaker that FINALLY came in,. And yes I learned my lesson. And yes I will never do it again. Just to add about the quality, to each there own apparently, but of all the 1's I own (New love/Old Love, DMP, David White, Chicagos, Knicks and Clovers) these are by far the best quality. I think they're sick!!!
Unfortunately they came pre-creased with an odd vertical section on the toe box....whatever, THEY WILL BE WORN!!!

My first pair also has that similar pre-creased section on the left pair. Only worse.
Good thing I got a second pair w/c is almost flawless on the left pair. Matched the pre-creased pairs and gonna just sell 'em.

If I were you, I would wear the creased pair (since it's inevitable anyways) and keep nice the pair DS.My first pair also has that similar pre-creased section on the left pair. Only worse.

MIne finally came in and overall I am pleased with them. Just a few minor glue stains and one little knick but other than that these are clean af. Honestly, my biggest gripe, and I'm not sure if others have this issue on their pairs, is that the Nike Air on the tongue sort of hangs over a little too far and you can basically see some of the "Nike and the swoosh" wording when looking head on at the shoe. Regardless though, these will be beat to the ground.

Don't trip off a few flaws people. Despite what has been said these ARE hand made (assembled anyways) and will NOT be perfect in most cases. Enjoy them!

If you noticed, the leather cuts on all 1s w/ the OG treatment have visible frays. The leather panels of the Chicagos and DMP 1s have rounded edges with no visible sign of a leather cut out. Black toes definitely has better leather to Chicagos, they just look identical.

Best way to deal with the creases is to not look down when they are on your feet.
If that doesn't work for you then a wet towel and an iron will give you temporary relief but once they go back on feet they'll crease again that's why the more long term solution is not worrying about it.

How's the leather on the dmp 1s blk red?? How is the leather on the 2001 breds?? Can someone who knows what they talking about maybe give me a co parison as far as where these 2 sit as far as quality goes n softest leather. Just on the fence rt now on which 1 to cop n if the leather is abt the same I'm gonna save the bread n go with the dmp 1s. I have the recent royal release and these blk toes for comparisons sake. Thanks ahead of time.

Like I've read multiple times in this thread and it actually helps, despite the flaws, just be thankful that you got a very iconic shoe. Many people I'm sure, are pretty salty they couldn't get it so be thankful. I have complained that there was pre creases on my pair but I got over it cause on foot, who gives a fck! It's gonna crease no matter what. Don't trip over it and enjoy the shoe. Yes JB has gone downhill on the output quality of the shoes to the public but it's still iconic right?

The DMP 1's use synthetic leathers. They're better then the synthetic leathers used as of late, but not as good as the '01s. JB used a lot of ankle cushion in '01 1's, and little cushioning in the DMPs. The '01 also has small differences such as a nubuck swoosh, smaller wings logo, and a higher up toe box with a rolled cap. I'd highly suggest you get a pair of '01s or wait later this year.

Dudes....when you wear these people will not say "Oh my gawd....the inner Nike check on his left Jordan 1 black toe is creased". They will say "damn those are some fly kicks".
I wear my 2001 Royals, which are creased up everywhere, and all I get are broken necks. I thought this outlook might help some of you dudes with shoe OCD.

Smh That's exactly how my pair looked when I picked them up on the rd. sold them to a person outside the store I showed him but he still bought them.My first pair also has that similar pre-creased section on the left pair. Only worse.

I know right. People should be happy they got their hands on a pair and the people that are still hunting or paying 250 for these would gladly take their creased pair off their hands.

It's a good thing JB sticks with this stiffer leather because if they used some soft leather everyone would complain about how fast the leather creases and the creasing

Smash the bird and you'll have a connect for life.Yeah they sold out, I called a few mins ago. Chick was kinda hesitant to tell me if they still had enough pairs left, but once I said I was coming from NJ she said "Nah boo, it ain't even worth the trip." .. she sounded cute too, which probably meant she was FAT
You supposed to be my homie and now you're insisting I go "Whale Watching"
Hey what's goin on in here? We bangin out fatties for employee discounts?? I'm in

The discount is the cherry on top, I'm good if she can just hold me down for retail
I'm gonna have to steal AirThompson's fit with the black pants and chambray/denim button up. Looks clean
Go for it dog. I like nice clean simple looks, I'm not into loud street wear matching shirts and all that jazz. Do what works for you.
That custom job is sick. Don't make that trade fam. KOs are around, keep hunting.
I've been hunting ever since RD last year. The B/red KOs are hard to find let alone in sz.9. I only came across five pairs all $275+, and it will only get worse as time goes.
My homie wants the blk toes bad so I just copped a pair for the trade.[/quote]Damn. I thought I overpaid at $170. The one recent release from JB I paid over retail for. Gotta do what you've gotta do. I would keep the double, but I see why you're opting not to.
