So, related to this conversation...I've pretty much been a fan of the ROY's all along...but the selli ng point was the red laces that made them pop through pics. But...of course, I struck out on release. I've been watching prices all week but still hadn't pulled the trigger. Until today....Ky homie won on SNKRS and received his today....the leather on these is NICE! Of other recent AJI cops, I got the court purples....And while those are nice...The ROY is WAY better! Not only is the white leather plush....the suede is pretty fantastic. And the black leather on the ankle collar....Wow!!I'm going to say that you really have to have ROY's in hand because honestly that may not be a false statement. Having both.. its kind of hard to say which is best and I would say it would end up depending on the viewer's preference on leather in 2018. BT '16 have great leather which no one cared for during the release. ROY's leather is impeccable... owning both.................... man. IDK. Could easily go either way.
So, needless to say, I went straight to StockX and my size 12 was sitting at $181.....Copped!! Pics do NOT do these justice. Get them while they're closer to retail if you can...definitely worth owning though!
