Random things i noticed.
1. On my pair 1 logo is embossed deeper than the other. (is this consistent with other NTers?)
2. I feel like these have more padding inside than previous 1's that have released in 2013/2014.
3. Fragment's are a brighter Royal Blue than the Royals, but i'm sure that's obvious since it's Sport Royal and not Varsity Royal.
Here are my (worn many times) 2013 Royals vs (soon to be worn) Fragment's.

Thanks for posting those pics
That did the trick. I was really wanting a pair of these.
Now, I think I'll just stick with the Royals.
That cut though...

Here's my pair & thoughts;
View media item 1333500
+ Higher Cut
+ Improved Construction (Flawless Stitching & No Glue Stains)
+ Slightly Improved Leather. (Softer)
+ Improved Padding around ankle & on Nylon Tongue.
+ Blue is a different hue than Royals IMO.
But with all that I was still expecting more. I heavily collect sample/PE's as many of you know (Check IG if you haven't) & I was hoping JB would give the same attention they had done to PE Retros, but they did not.
If you are thinking about paying full resell for these, I wouldn't, as its its not better than Banned's or even LM's IMO.
The "+" I noted above aren't that noticeable, you have to really inspect the model.
Nonetheless, happy to own the pair. Enjoy the picture.

Ok, so I wasn't the only one who felt the padding was better.
The label for the Fragments says Sport Royal and on my Royals box it says Varsity Royal. So the Fragments are definitely a lot brighter.

lol he won but DB8s are in the middle for me. The only horrendous DBs are the 1s, 2s, and 10s. The others I either like or understand why others would like.

Thank you!
Appreciate it!
I know the feel. My family never had the funds for shoes that were even $30+. I begged my mom for the 17s in 7th grade. No go.
But makes me appreciate what I can afford nowadays a lot more.
Thank you!Luong1209 pickup

This the first time I ever seen a well stored, DS, '85 1 in a recent pic. Good lord that thing is gorgeous. All those run down DS 85s do not do that mould justice.
