quality wise which is better 2001 black/red or banned 1's ?
banneds all day.
i own both, and i even own 85 black toes, and the banned quality is on another level.
it's the main reason this retro later this year won't hurt the value of banneds too much. hardcore jordan connoisseurs will still seek them and pay a premium price for premium materials (not to mention the story and theme of them, the weird release only in outlets, the first time putting nike air on a jordan shoe in over 10 years, their first real acknowledgement of how this shoe changed the game, both the shoe game, and the money game, making the NBA change their rules, leading to huge money endorsement deals for players, etc.)...
