I'm a true size 12. Purchase a 11.5. I only tried on the right shoe but I had room in the toe box... These newer OG style releases dont have the unnecessary padding. So it doesn't take up as much room.

Just came back from doing the return but picture a dent. Exactly like that. Maybe the iron trick wouldve worked but my standards are too high coz of this postIf it’s possible, take a picture. If not, all good.

Got me 2x! When I called the first time, the lady repped just laughed and sent a replacement. Luckily, it was a pair of vapormax and they could replaced them and wasn't out of stock. The second time it happened within a month time frame was for another pair of vapormax during their clearance sale. Same thing happened. Box was opened from the bottom with that new style shipping box. When I called customer service the 2nd time, the gentleman said that they are having issues with the "bottom opening" during shipping. They didn't have the initial color available, but instead of a refund, the guy gave me a different pair of vapormax with double the value.

The pic of MJ wearing a bad QC pair in 88 is enough for all to know how bad QC always has been. Try and tell me Jordan would have rocked a bad QC pair today. Just like their commercials the pair would be perfect or better than what we would get. “Make QC good again” is just as stupid as MAGA, both have been crap since day 1.

So it seem that my SNKRS pair FINALLY arrived and to my surprise, lasership didn't steal my shoes nor did they treat my package like a soccer ball in the back of their truck. I also seem to continue my lucky streak of buying from SNKRS and getting pairs with minimal flaws because these things look GREAT! My only gripes are the Nike Air tab being slightly off on the left shoe and the EP lines aren't as thin as I've seen on other pairs. Besides that, super happy to have them and really glad I pulled the trigger on a second pair from Ebay last night. DOUBLE UP SZN BAAABYYYY!

I cracked up at this as I pictured it in my head. But damn, you would think if it's a known problem they would do something about it. I guess it hasn't happened enough to hurt business.

I definitely like my EU pair much better than my SNKRS PAIR. Leather is wayyy softer and more tumbled on my EU pair than my SNKRS.
Elephant print on SNKRS pair is over exaggerated
My SNKRS pair feels “cheaper” in quality. Also, the cushioning around the sock-liner is softer than the EU pair.
EU Wins this round

Boy I'd hate to tell you Nike themselves proved that is a lie this year. A LOT of their shoes this year have had TERRIBLE QC. And its been proven that they use cheaper grades of leather while stating the materials are "closer to OG i.e., Georgetown 1s when its the same leather as a cheap AF1"
I wasn't alive back then but i'm sure the people who had the OGs know the leather and QC was MUCH better than now, even if we only have pictures and some videos to compare. There's a reason OGs are high collectibles and not recent retros.
You wasn’t alive back then…that should tell you right there you can’t comment on the quality of sneakers from the 80s and 90s. But newsflash, the quality of Jordans have been consistently the same throughout the years. Only difference is either Durabuck or synthetic leather, and sometimes they used full grain. Toes boxes came creased, elephant print was different sizes, shoes were different heights. OG Jordan 13s had the toe tag upside down back then just like some retros. Nike had production facilities in different countries for the same model so of course they would all be different. I remember OG Playoff 11s depending on what factory, they had different toe boxes all together, some like a duck bill and some slanted down.
You guys only see OGs from pictures but the grand scheme of things is that we wore our kicks to the ground so the QC issues didn’t matter to us. Now people take pictures and stare at retros, so in a sense it went from a wearable shoe to a collectors item. But Nike didn’t change anything besides the price. People are just expecting more
