stand corrected on that point. But in the case of all recent og 1 hi's which pair out of any of them weren't relatively limited for grs in relation to other retros? Im pretty sure they all were.

I so agree with especially since their making us cough up more cash from our wallets the least JB could do is improve quality

Your best bet is to treat this release as if they're limited. Regardless if they are or not. For the most part, OG cw's with the NA treatment have been "limited GR's".
No shade but if you think production numbers for these will be comparable to Tech Grey 4's, Columbia 4's, etc., then you're in for a rude awakening.

In my limited experience, any time that I've seen a GR it has been easy to snag online, though they still rarely show up in the city I live in. I've found that anything listed on the SC website as a "limited release" is very difficult/impossible for me to get online and never has a "limited" release made it here. But we are classified as a "rural" location so we get the major shaft on all releases.
This would be my first pair of OG 1s and I am probably well over-hyped on them, but I've been a fan for two decades and just now have the money to try and buy a pair.

I'll be visiting Seoul during the summer. I wonder what the sneaker scene is like out there.

Some from Shoulee, and some from Nike Korea.
You should go to Itaewon, and Hongdae.
Sneaker scene started to get big about 2~3 years ago.

I'f I somehow don't get these on release day, I wouldn't mind biting the bullet and pay the resellers.

Doubt it considering they wouldnt do a much better job of it than they did last time. The UNCs and Chis were a disgrace last time

Looks like i will have to find me some Black Toes for a reasonable price.

Between the new mold and potentially ('most likely', based on every other new I so far) softer leather, I'd say a Black Toe re-release would be a substantial enough improvement over the 2013 pair actually.
That's just me though, based on the fact that mold and leather quality are always my top priorities with retro releases.

99% of JB consumers do not give a **** about the mold

What does what 99% of JB customers care about have to do with my opinion or your initial statement of them not doing a much better job than last time?
My point was just that simply taking a pair of these new Is and repainting them is a notable improvement over the 2013 pairs. To me, at least.

Only reason I believe the Chicagos are releasing again so soon is because of the NA, not because of the lack of quality materials. black toes already have NA...

Oh yeah, using this release as an indication of another potential Black Toe release is just asking for disappointment 
Although I'm fairly sure that Jordan Brand doesn't give a **** about whether they've already released a pair with Nike Air yet or not.

Next time JB releases any OGs that recently dropped the remastered gimmick will be gone, and they'll have jumpmen.
The cycle just repeats.
