Jordan 11 or lebron 8Going back to end of the world stuff - if you had to bounce from the house, which shoes you wearing?

Patent leather gonna crease something fierce in the apocalypse.Jordan 11 or lebron 8
TMI in that last sentenceI’ll take the top (retail) pair anyday. Dont care how it compared to the og shape, top looks tons better. Yall want anything OG to the tee even if it doesnt look as good. Short *** tongue, im already short in alot of other places now yall want the tongue short too.
You're wrong. Game worn Jordan 3s from the slam dunk contest:
General production shoes were different from what MJ wore. Seems like you care about what you saw in a magazine rather than what MJ actually played in.
Says the guy who joined NT 14 years after me. lol. Look, I’m not ashamed to say that I didn’t buy my first pair of Jordans (Concord 11s) until 2000, after I graduated and started working. 5 kids in my family, so my parents couldn’t afford to buy us Jordans growing up. Absolutely nuts to insinuate that I’m some sort of bandwagon fan who only started collecting Jordans after the Last Dance came out. Nice try though.
Again, I’m rarely the type to ***** about the elephant print, height of the shoe, etc, because I wear all my joints, not stare at them in the box like some virgin.
If I know nothing about these at all, and look at this pic, Im saying the 2023 version is the closest to the 1988 by far. The mock up is nice as hell. But its far fetched to think they are going to get it right completely. This is one release that seriously filled the OG void that I have always had with this shoe. Never had the original, but have several versions starting with the 1994 that I purchased during its clearance days. I feel like the ankle cut is so much better on the 2023 than its ever been since its original. It started sloping in 1994 and just got worse with the other releases.Man’s picked the worst pic to compare to 88s
Give me a break
Thinking about dumping my pair. I still have my free throw lines.
Somebody talk me off the ledge lol

the 88 version also had terrible quality control and cuts of leather for the ankle and tongue are cut to different sizes. They aren’t consistent. It was still a cheap, mass produced shoe. It’s not wildly different today. Nike has been in the business of producing cheap crap since their inception.
My point was the shape was all over the place because of the quality. Quality control was worse back then if that’s even imaginable. People would lose their mind if the ankle collar was a 1/4” higher than their other pair.His point was the shape, not quality.

And it’s been argued on this site for 20 years too. Who cares at this point? You get what you get, take it or leave it. Nike doesn’t care about dudes’ mock-ups. Funniest part is it’s guys who have bought every bad retro that complain about it like ignorance is the problem over at JB. If we just diagram the corrections here enough times they’ll fix it. Nike doesn’t even want a 1:1 Jordan.You're reaching if that was really your point.
Even with the inconsistencies back in 1988, the overall shape was the same and VERY distinguishable from everything we've gotten after 1988.

I offed my FTL as soon as I knew these were coming out the icy sole and fat ep (pause )Not sure if this is a joke? The FTL are complete garbage, esp compared to what we got with the '23s.
The wanttf you waiting on lol
Mostly I dont really loved the aged look. The FTL have the normal color.
Probably still gonna keep both.
Not garbage, just not better. Some people just not hip on this whole aged thing.Not sure if this is a joke? The FTL are complete garbage, esp compared to what we got with the '23s.
