If you say you don’t have glitter on your 1s then use your phone’s flashlight and shine it on them in the dark. You’ll see it.
 
As an older head now I can admit we lost the nickname battle a long time ago. Honestly I hated Bred as a nick name for a long time but I’ve had to just accept that it is what it is and change with the times.

It’s definitely easier than typing black and red all the time.
 
When were the nicknames given though?

They usually come about organically but JB most def tries to float 'nicknames' like top 3s, banned, flu game....1s nicknames usually revolve around colorways like shadows (the retro was no longer a soft grey like the OGs but a shadow grey) or color blocking.

Was on the fence about these and passed at retail, but at half price I did an instant double up. I actually really like them in hand and on feet. Pretty underrated in my opinion. Def not a replacement for the classics, but a cool update to break out once in a while.

Half price source bro?
 
its 2018 bruh you still tryna match your shoes to your shirt? This time last year no one talked or cared about Chis only reason theyre relevant now is that theyre a good consolation to the OW1s crazy resale. Dont play yourselves Bred> any other 1
what? Who are you?

I can't like Chicago's more than breds because chicagos have a higher resell value, so if i do, its because of the value? Shut up man. Your generalization is ridiculous. Chicago's will always be my 2nd favorite, behind shadows. I don't give a damn about no poll or resell.
 
Bred is the shoe that hooked me from day 1--but chis are the bomb.
this is true. We're old enough to remember wanting these back in the mid 80's. When i was 11 in '85, i wanted the breds because they were like nothing else.

But as years went by, chicago's climbed up for me.
