It’s actually not surprisingly. I measured both from the E to the tip on the WC vs the BC and it’s the same - both measure 13/16”!!

How did you come up with all that just by me inquiring on how one is better than the other. Relax buddy.Spend the extra $2 and get both!
Can’t believe some of y’all are tripping over the J23 app fee
Y’all shouldn’t be copping shoes if you can’t afford a $2 app
They both send push notifications... sole links did alert us first on this drop though

yeah but how much smaller is the word Nike

i dont know, that still doesnt make sense either. How is that thing so off center.
The tail has to be longer

Nike is the same size actually. The difference is the relationship between AIR and the Nike & Swoosh. It seems to be off by 1/8”. I’m a graphic designer with 20 years experience so I find it fascinating why the logo looks off and what / why it was changed on this release.

me too, but not as much experience. We're in the same boat on this. Maybe thats why people dont understand why i have such a big problem with it

Isn’t the air “off” on the white cements are well?
The splatter just helps (and that not so long swoosh tail)

look at where the top indent on the N is in relation to the pulltab. Its way more left on the bc4 compared to the wc4.If you were to draw a line down continuing the right slant of the pull tab you'd perfectly dissect the K and E on the wc4. It would hit the middle of the E on the bc4
How wide is the actual entire heel tab on each? Maybe theres less real estate on the bc4

I’m not sure. I’ve worn these about a good ten times. They seem to be holding up.
Yeah I get it. It’s intriguing to me. I did notice the I in Air is right below the opening in the K on the WC but on the BC it’s under the down stroke of the K. It’s literally off by an 1/8”.

I think it’s a little better on the WC
But I still think if you grey out the heel tab, these would appear a lot more “off”

Here are comparison pictures no one else seems to want to take.
Thanks for the comparison shots. Sold my WC4's few years ago & never looked back but I do hope they get another release soon with the new mold
I wonder who gonna be the first to bump that toe with a iron on their pairs once they start arriving

Joints are cool and all but IDK what's worse.. the ****** NA or the toe box. When these come out perfect in 2045, we're going to laugh at these lol.

Right. The logo is definitely farther left on the tab on the BC than the WC. What’s interesting is the spacing all around the logo from leather to logo is all equidistant. It’s like they centered Nike & Swoosh on the tab independently from AIR. Notice how the swoosh is the same distance from the upper on both pairs.

So interesting. I find this detail fascinating even if trivial to most. So if the length from the E to the end of the swoosh is the same, then something else is going on here. Tab width doesn't look much diff, but hard to tell without being in hand. Hope I can get a pair and compare just to satisfy my curiosity if nothing else.

wait, is it glued on or raised?

the graphic guys are on it, this is going to get figured out

I think it’s literally due to the raising of the back tab. There is more space to work with and Nike decided to center Nike & Swoosh on the tab independent from centering AIR on the tab.
It’s like they scaled Nike & Swoosh an 1/8th more to the left.

I could live with the NA if the toebox was right. Probably because you look at that more than the back of the shoe when you wear em but thats just me.

The AIR is the only thing that remains unscathed

Yeah I would say the more important detail is the toe box.
