Toe box comparison

Looks like .5 up from normal ‘85 sizing is the play…Slim toe build…

doesn't feel as tight as prior pairs. I'd say NGs were most uncomfortable Day 1 (but broken in fine). I`m legit gonna rock these for 2 months straight and beat em down.

If NGs felt tighter, then no way is half size up the way to go on the Breds.

all my pairs arr sz 14. Tighter may not be the word but them joints were stiff as hell. These don't feel as Stiff, but are def thicker than non 85 Jordan 1 Highs. If you owned the NGs and the Metallic Burgundy then you may get what I mean (MBs didn't feel uncomfortable like the NGs, and I don't think it was a case of me being desensitized to 85 Retros by that time).

Got them in hand. Not gonna lie, don’t feel overly impressed. Yeah the toe cap is better, Swoosh/midsole is more accurate. I just hate the change of the heel resembling the BY Korean factory ‘85

Already excited to read the nonsense that is going to get posted in here after folks miss out at retail. Had to make that move at a steal for $850. My boy looked out for me at $975. This kind of insipid clownery that Nike/JB reads about just allows them to raise prices and folks don't get that. They see it has if they are giving to third parties, why not us?

 

[GrizzlyAnimal]

Salute to your boy on the steal price

True homey right there

 

[kennyg]

Those who were able to get the VRL and DB customs before they got shutdown are the true winners in all of this

My boy looked out for me at $975.

He looked out for you bro?

My NGs highs were definitely tighter out the box, but never felt unwearable or super uncomfortable.

 

[djpaul23sabong]

The Breds same size as the others? Because the height is a bit lower which makes them look like mids.

He's saying that's gonna be one of the excuses people use when they justify paying resell after the drop lol

everything is size 14.

I think I just had to get used to them not feeling "soft" but I wore em a month straight and they broke in and have zero stiffness. So plan is to beat the breads up All Feb and March and see how they end up.

 

[iTookanL]

They're giving Ugg vibes

 

[Boo_Radley_]

Any truth to ‘ol Jay the sneaker guys claim that all 23 stores that are receiving them will receive minimum 400 pairs stock?

 

[Chopsticks]

Ima pick up a pair of 2016 instead. No way im paying $1k
