Jordan Retro 1 OG Royal returns April 1 2017

[kandidra]

Imagine non patent leather on a pair of XIs.

It ain't that deep.

None of the retros have been the same as previous models.

The comparison to no patent leather on 11's is a desperate reach.

this. smooth leather on 1s aint really a defining feature of the shoe. seems like an over reach in terms of comparing

People are delirious in Jordan I threads

. A Jordan model differing from it's original is absolutely not the same as changing an aesthetic detail that somewhat alters appearance. Cheap materials, a blue sole vs a clear sole, and colors that are almost identical to the OG are not the same as putting something on a retro that was never there before.. if it was.. no one would give a **** about putting NA on the back of III-VI.

Carry on though..

Looking forward to official pics down the line.

Just go cop some OG's bro.

That's the only way you're going to get as close as you need to be to the original.

You dudes just like finding stuff to whine about.

Exactly

I hate when y'all say that

No one said they weren't copping, we just aren't happy with the tumbled leather. I think it's ugly and wack

Just me tho!

 

[killaking]

Exactly

For real for real lmao

 

[headdetective]

Same cats goin to be in here cryin on release date cause they took that L.

NT don't change.

 

[woozie]

You know they could have gave us 2013 Chicago "leather" The tumbled doesn't look so bad now does it?

 

[squatchnt]

How you think something is wack and ugly but then buy it you gotta stand for something..

 

[CleanestNdaCity]

That's what we call "the change"

Will be staying in.  These are a must have.  Never had a clean new pair of royals.  These will be the first.

Imagine non patent leather on a pair of XIs.

I dont see that as the same. That analogy would be good to use if JB used a jumpman instead of a swoosh on the sides of the 1, not the type of leather. I am fine with the tumbled leather, its just something different.

 

[0takusamsay]

a better comparison is when JB used nubuck on the Flu Game 12s a few years back.

This, even though I wouldn't mind owning a pair minus the 97X32 logos.

 

[headdetective]

That's a better comparison.

That retro was trash.

I passed easy.

Wasn't in threads crying about the change either, only to eventually cop

Pretty much this. I don't see what's so hard to understand but oh well. Glad I got 2013s. Will copp these too but nothing wrong with identifying where they went wrong.
