Major lag, but I've been really busy and meant to have these up awhile back.

Solid pick up. The material is pretty soft, the shoe is not too much different from the '12 but the made all the right changes. Most will be happy, some will be disappointed.

leather quality?

 

[GrizzlyAnimal]

I truly feel like i have to get more then one pair of these 

 

[geraldg2309]

Everyone happy they are gonna be a GR but most people going for at least 2 pairs. Gonna end up feeling like its limited.

UNC 1. Soft but synthetic. Def better than most 4s in recent memory.

Seems like it. Most people I know are doubling up.

I should be good with one. I would double on the Blk/Cements. If you wanna join forces hmm. Although judging by number these will be a regular GR. You'll be able to cop on Monday probably.

Make sure y'all wear your pairs! Even if it's every now and then; DS results in them being unwearable and cracking after a short while

I see it's pros & cons in both the '99 and '16 pairs. I'm just copping one pair right now, I'd be goin' extra hard if I double. I don't have a good job, and video game style income like some of you...

YES!

I like the '16 speckles on the Nike Air on the heel more than the '99.

 

[kiddsupreme]

Don't listen to em, their predictions have been wrong since the Aquas. Mass produced, high price tag and overall lack of interest in Jordan's. The numbers don't lie. These'll sit like Steven Hawking.

OMFG, you had me rollin with that Hawking reference...

 

[kiddsupreme]

Question for those of you who have been in the game longer than I -- how do you think these compare quality-wise to the 2015 Oreo 4's? Not asking which shoe you prefer, just the materials and build quality specifically.

 

[g money 87]

It'll take em about 3 more tries to get these right...so expect 2025...first it'll be the actual color, then next one will be na hang tag, then next will be the shape. so expect to get the og shoe for about $450 in another 10 yrs

hmm its £153, usually kickz list shoes as £20 cheaper than NDC, (alt 2's today were £111 on kickz, £130 on NDC).

Guessing the NDC pricing will follow and be about £175 :/

UNC 1. Soft but synthetic. Def better than most 4s in recent memory.

Is the leather comparable to the recent oreo 4 retro, bro?

Synthetic material is just not cool when retail is $220. It's fine when it was $100 in 99, but not this day and age especially when they want to charge premium price for them. it is not like they couldn't make the leather soft without using synthetics, just look at the 1s and frag Trainers.With that said, I will probably still try to get a pair. If anything there will be ppl willing to take them.
