I was thinking about punching the second row but there’s no need, for me at least. I kind of want ppl to know their Fresh Princes (although 80 percent of ppl won’t be able to tell). Had to snatch the laces and lace locks out the 2013s, the length on the laces are perfect( those are most likely out the door any day now).

In comparison to the 2013s the leather is far softer and higher quality , there’s more cushion, they wear better and are more comfortable. Finally we can’t forget that Nike air. The 2013s were tanks but incredibly uncomfortable so I barely wore em not to mention they ran kinda big. All in all a good remastered attempt

Good stuff, I knew it wasn't going to be difficult. You should of made a video, I know your inbox is jumping with questions lol.
 
Got my 2nd pair from OBD today. They shipped DHL Express from Italy but I paid about $10 more than retail+tax. Thanks to whoever posted their link in the middle of the night on release day. Both pairs are in great shape. I think Nike must have been listening to all the quality gripes of the past because lately Jordans I've bought have been excellent.
 
Yea. Was just on there carting my size 11 on svd...comes out to about 248ish after conversion....midas.:emoji_whale: whale go the stock x route...
 
Props to the designer this shoe was made for customizers they could have screwed us and not have made a full tongue or some weird heavily stitched glued or rubber banned faux tongue. They looked out, imagine the old 8 lows with the permanently attached strap

Neck breakers.
 
Got them in, leather feels better than 2013, but also creases easier, came with a bunch of pre creases, tried em on and they are comfy as hell, that tongue is not moving anywhere lol def. no slipping with these
 
So I go on sivas to play around and see how much another pair of these would run in euros. Instead of just using a converter, I add to cart and start the check out process. Im used to PayPal redirecting me back to the site to confirm the order, but instead the order goes through. I immediately cancel then wake up to a cancellation email with the funds redirected. I then get an email from DHL saying the shoes have shipped.....let’s see how this goes

Free shoes? lol. Anyway, yeah....there's a reason why pairs are sitting on Sivas. I don't think many are willing to pay 250+ or whatever it is when you can find these much cheaper.

I’m curious where you can find these much cheaper than $240. That’s how much they are at Sivas.

I'm speaking about local sellers/FB, etc. I've seen them lower than 250. Siva, you're basically paying market price ...I believe they're closer to 250 than 240 when you convert the currencies, I'm sure you can find them a bit cheaper someway somehow. Even on StockX certain sizes are going under...for example size 8 last sales were $215-$220.
 
These are killing my THICC feet, I could barely walk after a half hour. My foot was going numb.

Anyone have any luck returning product to Nike that they didn’t buy from Nike directly? The store I purchased from had a no-returns policy on used products.

......i was right
 
Others on here claim they’re very comfortable. I’m glad. Unfortunately they aren’t for me.

that sucks. i know u liked em too. but hey, if ya got the real grape 5s, just rock those wit no laces. i know da quality aint the same but hey lol

Are you heavier set or do you have wide feet? Luckily enough if you're brave it seems like you can unlatch them pretty easiliy. May relieve some of the tightness
