Orange Peel 3s are definitely somewhat forgotten/un-appreciated...always one of my favorites.

Just dug these up the other day. Both pair DS and purchased on release days. Still got OG receipt for DTRT. The quality on the Flips is NUTS! Leather guts and all. Heel tab starting to yellow a bit..

CDP 15s would be my entry (not my pic).
I love the shoe, and would like to find another pair, but I'm so odd about boxes, that I usually can't find one because someone has used the box to sell w/ the 8s, and I don't want to buy a whole other CDP pack just for the 15s.

I wish they would start retro+ing like they were at this time again. There was A LOT of clean retro+ on multiple shoes. The retros still weren't as popular as they are today though so they kind of steered away from the nice, simple retro+

These.

Maybe the older generation/people who have been copping shoes long enough or people who know the history, knows these.
I'll never forget when I wore these a few months ago, someone asked if they were customized STEELS.
I remember going to Niketown Miami to get these the day of the release. These, and the black/Carolina 5s

Had em back when they first dropped when I was in high school. Ended up selling them in college smh. Finally found a decent pair in my size a few weeks ago. Defiantly not giving them up this time.I forgot how much I wanted the Women's Aquas a few years back

I wish they'd release womens colorways in mens sizes sometimes. Wmns Aquas are so dope to me.
I didn't know shadows were apart of a pack, but I def wanted those metallic 1s. It's crazy they sat for so long back in 09 too.
Yup. This is how they should be done more often in my opinion; with subtlety and in unique colors/degrees of translucency:
To people who don't pay much attention to I's or just hopped on the bandwagon with the last set of releases, I'd definitely call the DTRT pairs forgotten. To those who were hip, they were a decent retro of some original Metallic colorways.
Same with the "School Daze" pack releases (besides the fuzzy swoosh on the White/Purple/Gold pair.) 2008-2009 was actually a solid run for Jordan I's in terms of concepts and on certain pairs, quality.
DTRT:
School Daze:
Also (possibly coincidentally) original colorways, with the 1985 "Lakers" pair not releasing if I remember correctly.

I love these tbt. I wanted these and the quai54 fusion 5s at the time, which I don't care for now, but if I ever come across a pair of the 5s in my sz it's on.

Talk about a forgotten release, the Titanium XX3. I sold my pair for $1600 a couple days after release. Flight Club has a pair up now for $675. People who sat on their pairs took major Ls.

Those "Lakers" released in '09, but maybe intentionally or by coincidence share the same colorway with a pair that may or may not have released in available quantities in 1985:
The pair that released in '09 with the chenille swoosh was based on a frat in School Daze though if I remember correctly.
