These are trash anyone else rocking these joints what do you think about them
 
Opened up Sneakrs and thought they were announcing a release! Was about to be hype, the only patent leather pair that I would ever want in my collection. May go back and get gold toes.

If he had the Jordan 1 in his university days I feel like this is exactly what his P.E. would look like for games. Instead of sail it'd be white though.

Not bad. I’ve personally never been a fan of colored laces on top of a black (obsidian in this case) tongue, so I’d rock the obsidian laces, but not bad.

I think it works with black toe styled 1s really well because the "pop" color is always in ¹-3 parts of the shoe on average and it's usually tongue tag, heel, and outsole(very unnoticeable areas aside from the heel). With the exception of the BHITG pack which included the swoosh. So having that extra pop of color w/ the laces can amplify the shoe in a good a*s way. Either style works really well though depending on wardrobe and fit.

I think one of the reasons a lot of people prefer b/red toes over black toes is because of that extra "pop" in the toe and the black tongue. Adding red laces to the black toes though, really gives them that extra oomf that goes missing because many will wear them with white or black laces.
 


Letterman's progress. Not done yet but thinking of going "creme" for all the white panels and doing a navy toe panel or just leaving it all sail which is roty inspired due to both being "significant" outfits for his rookie year. Thoughts?
