Why give us the shape we want when we’ll buy whatever they give us anyway

A highly successful, multi-billion dollar company doesn't have much to be embarrassed about.
Many don’t care about the shape; others, including me, don’t care for the ‘88 shape.
I heard ole buddy is charging 300 to do the job. I’ll pay that for some wc3 in og form and just act like it never happened. That’s obviously upwards of like 5-600+ including the shoe and whatever materials are needed but there’s literally no other way to get a brand new og the way you want it.

So you run a Jordan “fan page” but your not really a fan of the originals? Lol doing it all for the clout I see

I agree it would be in their best interestYou should work for Nike with that line of elementary thinking. I'm not going to bother trying to explain again why it might be in Nike's interest to in fact "give us the shape we want." Rest assured there are legitimate long-term business reasons why it might be a good idea.
What reasons are there? Most of the consumers don’t care, that’s why they sell out. There are flaws that is NT folks see, that others would swear we were insane for caring too much.You should work for Nike with that line of elementary thinking.

I have owned plenty of originals, and had the pleasure of watching the greatest player and team play. Do I wish they released exact replicas of the originals, yes. Do I care that much if they don't get the correct elephant/cement print right to not buy them, no. What I do care about is that they use correct color blocking and use 'Nike Air' when warranted. Some of the complaints when comparing the original to a retro is just ridiculous. If you don't like a retro because the elephant print is too high or because a stitch is slightly slanted then don't buy it.The individuals who don’t care have always been posers to me. Mindlessly following a trend because it’s cool. I’ve got two words for lames like that, “**** ‘em”! For the individuals who owned the originals or those who saw the originals, but couldn’t afford them, it’s more than just a sneaker. It’s a moment in time and recreating a retro to the exact specifications isn’t rocket science. Yes JB is only concerned with making money and time and time again the drones buy the lame interpretations of an original only to defend it. What trips me out is how people have turned it around on the enthusiast. If you never owned the originals or at least saw them in real time, your opinion doesn’t mean jack **** to me. Especially for the individuals who prefer a retro over and original, no matter the model number.
Yo guys how yall clean 3s???
Factory laced? Like you don't even loosen them up?I keep them either factory laced where it already comes tucked in or I lace then tighter while keeping them tucked behind the tongue. Imo it looks cleaner then tied up front.

It’s fair to have that opinion, but it’s a near sighted generalization. People care about what they care about. That’s as simple as that.The individuals who don’t care have always been posers to me.

If you have followed me for ANY amount of time, you would know that I prefer certain OGs to others. I’m typically gushing over the 6s or some 4s, 7s, and the Aqua 8s. I don’t talk about every model, or go into the history of every model. I talk about what I like, and what I want to come out, but go off bro

I like an extra clean look so I don't tie any knots at all. Instead, I lock the laces on each side...dumb question but how y'all tie the laces on 3's and not have em showing?

From my observation, as long as the key aesthetic is captured, the product is fine to most. What’s the key aesthetic? Low/mid cut, black tumbled leather, elephant print, hits of red or grey, a black and white midsole, etc.. It doesn’t matter if the EP is black or dark grey or if the tongue is fire Red or true red, as long as it fits the generally understood aesthetic, people will be okay with it. Why? Because some people just want the Black Cement 3. Also, NIKE AIR.
ALSO, some may like certain OG models over others.
