I've said it before, and I'll say it again.

This is the BEST 3-6, Air Jordan OG Retro, so far this decade.

Screw all thoughts & opinions.

I will admit. I passed on these. Now I wish didn't. The 5 didn't have that feel to me like maybe the 6, 7, so on. The 6 in 91 got me into Jordans. I will have these eventually.
 
Someone should post a 99/2000 retro for comparison sakes.

Definitely want a pair one day.

Tongue way thinner on 99/2000. Toebox less rounded more streamlined angled. Feels thinner than any later retros. Durabuck is very similar to the remastered pairs. The tongues flash is unlike any other 5 after it on the 99/2000s like it shines so bright these newer retros are nowhere near it. 99/2000s fit tts. Overall these came super close to to the first retro but certain differences just can't be messed with tbh.
 
Back when I first got my 2000 retros before I soleswapped them, I snapped this pic of me and my ex at the time and when I say that reflection is far more superior than any other retro...I mean it. Like check it out! They reflect so much it left an after image. This was taken at night. No filter no nothing this was back in 2013 lol I don't own them anymore because they weren't DS so the durabuck was pretty badly damaged but I would definitely repurchase a pair in better condition. That 3m is unmatched

The remaster comes close but still are nowhere near as bright

Like I gotta be a few feet away to get the same brightness effect but the 2000s genuinely reflect into an after image of the tongue it's wild.

Btw these and the 2016 wc4 these are way better quality wise.

Wanted to cop the 2013 3M tongue Fire Reds and the quality btw both pairs is totally night and day
