Aqua 8s Black Friday 2015

[kicks2024]

****, I don't go anywhere. Just to work and back to the house.

Same here but luckily we have no “business dress code” in the office so I get to rock the sneakers daily

Still end up wearing the same ole ones most of the time

I hear you on that!

Me going “out” is basically going to grocery stores and doing quick errands like those ….

Back when the wife and I used to go to nightclubs here in Sin City, sneakers (rubber shoes) weren’t allowed…. I don’t know how it is now… haven’t been to a nightclub ever since my little man was born buts it’s all good coz we got that out of our system before he arrived

[HellRazor1978]

Better wear em before they crack.

Still waiting on a rerelease with good materials and OG shape

 

[sharpshooter718]

I thought people on here reported the last retro was very close to OG specs; no?

 

[dhtowng]

They were. Not sure what poster is talking about.

They were. Not sure what poster is talking about.

Shape was decent but not like the OG. Colors were accurate though.
My main gripe was the leather. Didn’t like it. Dry and thin. Same thing with the playoffs.
They are my fav JB shoes, but still waiting on a release that has better quality.

Didnt know any parts of the shoe were supposed to be leather...

 

[pwguy]

Aqua 8s were Durabuck.

Maybe they're mistaking the 90s durabuck for leather I dunno. Regardless though if they're a fan of 8s and they passed on the 2015 Aquas, they're a fool. Of all the """remastered""" releases that came out at that time, the Aquas were without a doubt the closest to their original counterpart. I still need to get a second pair but resell has gotten steep so I might settle for a VNDS pair at this point.

Same thing I told my brother who's yet to wear them. Might get one or two wears out of them because they've been in the box so long.

2015s are awesome. My only gripe would be the side paintbrush panels are not as high as the 1993s. That is really the only thing the 2007 got right.

I think they’re pretty one to one with the original 93 pair.

Aqua 8's my second favorite Jordan behind the Bred 11's. I also agree with Forest the 2015 Aqua 8's are the closest retro to the original JB has put out to date. I wish they would do that to others. I copped 2 pairs at release one has only been tried on here and there so far no cracking on either.

 

[fdub]

I think the OG insole is a nice touch too.

 

[HellRazor1978]

The only thing I don’t like about the 2015 are the back pull tabs. They are stitched too low on the back of the sockliner which makes the loops smaller than they should be. Other than that pretty much perfect.

 

[riverdale road]

One of my fav shoes. Should've copped multiple pairs when they were super cheap.

 

[checks mcgee]

Having these DS the opposite of a flex rock em

 

[hydeous]

Im waiting for the re release of the bugs bunny ver retro again. Always love that color, but never got them back in the 90s cause theres this annoying kid in my school who got em, and i didnt want to wear the same shoes as him back then lol

Sold my pair last year for $300 on ebay. Talk about a come up
