Passing by this thread and seen these pics. Would this not prove that MJ NBA game worn pairs are not with 3M on the tongue?

The yellowing on 5s and 6s drives me bleeping crazy.
We sent a man to the moon for god’s sake.
...but we can’t invent a Jordan 5 that’s yellow-proof?

Interestingly, my 2013 Oreos have no yellowing, but these do; both stored in the same conditions and location...must be diff materials.

When was the game designed like 2002 and released in 2003? But it's set in the early to mid 90s?

I'm posting revised photos of mine.
I'll always be thankful that a former cool a%$ associate of mine helped me get these when she was an assistant manager at the Fox Hills Mall Champs. This was the second hookup I got from her when the Foot Locker Inc. companies used to have the raffle system. She rigged it so that my entry was ensured to get a pair of these in my size. She previously helped me secure the Maroon VI in December 2015 at the same store.
I'm happy enough that I got favors from her with only the two releases I mentioned under the old system. I chose to get help sparingly because I didn't need every release since I'm picky, and it helped my standing with her that way.
I'm glad I made the second and last hookup with her count with this one in summer 2016.

I don't have a blog. It's from my head. Some scenarios I elaborate have similarities like that.

Yes they did although I’ve only wore them the past 5 or 6 years because I spaced out 3 pair over 21 years. Been expecting it, looked down and had the midsole powder around the air bubbles and that’s the begining of the end. We need a NT grave yard post to pay our last respects to the fallen. Lol
