Jordan 1 Chicago - Reimagined aka Lost and Found - November 19, 2022

Thanks for the reply.

Here are a few extra pics.

…is this what you wanted?

Yes, and the sticker placement looks good. From what I've seen so far, the fakes still can't get the sticker placement right. The $64.99 sticker should be parallel to the check mark and the end of the check mark should end somewhere in between the $ sign.

Now that you finally got the Lost and Founds, what's next?

How do they fit ? True to size or half size down ?

Thanks buddy!

Really appreciate it.

Legit app check just came back…AUTHENTIC.

To answer your previous question, it’s an amazing feeling…almost surreal.

Even if they’re “reimagined,” they still look like Chicagos on my feet. Knowing that I now own the Breds, Royals and Chicagos, three shoes I dreamed about having as a kid in 1985…it’s like a dream come true.

I kid around a lot, probably too much, but I’m actually a very sentimental person

…so these shoes really mean something to me.

TTS feels pretty good to me.

Maybe a tad tight in the toe box.

…but I’m sure they’ll break in nicely.

 

[Davey Magoo]

What’s next for me?

Hopefully an extended vacation from eBay.

I almost bought the 85 Neutral Greys yesterday for $425, but was able to pull back from the abyss.

The Union Storm Blues are essentially unobtainable and the Shattered Backboards aren’t worth the price imo.

I love the Bred Toes, maybe even more than the 2016 Breds, but it’s seems silly to drop another $500 on a black/red/white colorway…or summit white or whatever.

I could see myself doubling up on the Shadows at some point…the only shoe I would do that for.

You mean being a kid in 2005? BTW the remastered don’t count as a true “OG” Chicagos. Congrats on the second hand used Breds and Royals tho, too bad they didn’t fit

Well…here we go.

Verdict?

Looks exactly like my pair from eBay…unless we both got fakes , I think you’re good

 

[KanyIZZY]

I prefer “WREDS” over “Cherry” and “Candy Cane”

Yea these are my size. Look just like my pair from SNKRS. I don't doubt the fake market but it's rare you'll get a fake 11.5 anything. It's a gift size but still a curse to cop at retail.

Why wouldn't there be fake 11.5s?

I think cause reps don't come in half sizes once you get up to 11. Just a guess, I'm not plugged into the rep scene all that much.

Absolutely right. I just did a search. Past 11 is only full sizes.

Good thing I bought my Shadows in a size 12.

...I knew something was off.

They do come in half sizes. It’s just that what’s labeled a 11.5 might just be an 11 or 12 with a 11.5 label on it. I’ve seen it happen.

After seeing these in person, my only real concern is the black cracked leather on the ankle.

I didn't realize how flaky it was until I touched it.

I have a feeling that stuff is going to peel off rather easily over time.

 

[Davey Magoo]

And I still don't understand why they had to use red leather that bleeds when wet.

...if it's not that it's black leather that turns into an Elton John jacket.

Did you check the insole/sockliner text on the underside yet?

No...why?

Don't get those Banneds wet or you'll be in for another surprise. Not as big a deal on a black based shoe.

Seeing Air tonight

 

[WesleyPipes]

Black laces fire havent tried white laces yet!

 

[kg21]

No...why?

See below:

If my pair shows up and there’s a box around the insole text, I’m going to kill myself.

Don't be so modest Davey, show us what's under the hood.

Y'all just gone have to trust I saw the movie.
