I'm not even sure what you've circled there, but it would bother me that the A and R in AIR on the left shoe are actually touching the white leather.

Ive seen that on a lot of pairs. Some YouTubers have the same flaw. I wish it matched but like I said its a common flaw.

you should not buy them if you are not satisfied with the flaws at the heel tabs, especially when you are paying resale you want a pair that is up to your standards
Imo that's one of those things that no one would notice unless you specifically pointed it out to em. But you are paying above retail so I'd assume you'd want them to be pristine.

Why you resurrecting this thread? Makes me regret letting my pair go, lol...

Truthfully, this will most likely be the least of your problems with these. The fit is what you really should be concerned about as the sizing on them is terrible

I think it depends on how much you're paying. Doesn't seem very noticeable in the pics. Every shoe has a flaw or flaws. Can you find a better pair for the same or better price? BTW, these fit perfectly TTS for me.

Wouldn’t bother me in the slightest if it meant I was getting a great price.

IIRC FR 4s were known for being a flawed release... The leather was really bad quality. Shape was off and some pairs were lopsided. To be honest I don't stare at anyone's shoes that long to detect flaws... Wouldn't bother me a bit...

Would like to see that back tab you're talking about. Other than the sub-par leather quality I like my pair.

Ok, check this dudes OG laces, similar laces as the most recent celeb OG pics on the AJ3 FR thread. That style of OG lace that appear more cotton-ish to my
than the current style of laces that are shiny and feel like they got spandex or sumthin in em. My question is: you cats ever went in the hunt to find OG style white laces and tried em out in some AJ3s or 4s or any for that matter? Can you even buy laces like that anymore?
I feel like they look kinda dope

I definitely think synthetic laces have been around for awhile, I'd say the last 20 years on retro Nikes. I don't like them as much.Ok, check this dudes OG laces, similar laces as the most recent celeb OG pics on the AJ3 FR thread. That style of OG lace that appear more cotton-ish to my

Only good thing is they don't stain as easy. Years back I soaked a pair in bleach to see if they would change colors and nothing, pretty durable.
