LOL WOW you definetely screwed up right there...2001s are legendary....the cut on them is amazing, these losers just fooled the hell out of you dude..trust me I have 2001 bred 1s and 2001 royals and I bought 2013 royals but sold them so quick because they are just absolutely terrible...first off the blue is so dull its more purplish, the leather is trash and creases within 1 or 2 wears, and the toe box is cut so high they look like dunks, all those dudes who said 2013 have never had a pair of 2001s in their hands and are most likely new to 1s or to the game...return them as soon as you can because you just failed big time listening to nike talkers
i agree with the fact that the 01s quality far exceeds the 2013 quality. i had 01s and purchased the 2013s. and jerusareem is right about the color and leather comparison. the 2013 coloring seems almost matte/flat compared to the 01. idk about the whole returning the shoes thing, but we can have our opinion. 

i did the same thing with my 2013's, used them in a trade of sorts to acquire banned 1s

So I'm a loser for the simple fact that we have differing opinions? That's some really sound reasoning on your part. For what it's worth I own 12 pairs of ones including 01 and 13 Royals so I'm not new to anything, and 13's are definitely more comfortable imo. At the end of the day they're sneakers they are meant to be worn creasing is inevitable.

The '01 padding definitely looks more fluffed, which only adds to its appearance factor because the '13 are surprisingly comfortable for its lesser padding appearance. You're right, I've never owned the '01, but I wasn't fooling anybody. When quality and comrfortability is on par, it comes down to preference. The '13 are more true to the OG. The dude needed help, obviously he didn't own any pair so you're clownin the dude more than helping him. He made the right choice either way. Any pair of Royal 1s is a win because they're scarce.

I was talking about the INSOLE, which feels thinner on the 01's. The 01 heel padding looks more fluffed but the heel padding on the 13 is more than adequate and still well padded. For future reference make sure you highlight the IMO next time you try to clown someone. At the end of the day, I have my OPINION which is what he asked for and I stand by it.

I would like these if they were a high

And without the nubuck or just have it on the front. The colorblocking is nice IMO. Instead JB releases another bad I that had potential.

I agree. Colorblocking on these is tight. Hopefully we do get NA black/reds to make up for it lol

The ankle padding in the 01s doesnt make them any more comfortable since the padding they used is kinda stiff.  The '13 model is definitely a more comfy shoe to wear and looks better without all that extra pointless padding.
 
I had a few pairs of '01s they're uncomfortable on the bottom heel and forefoot.

I'd buy the '13 for the simple fact aged leather wrinkles terrible when DS for over a decade
 
have the 01's and 13's

the blue seems to pop out more on the 01 royals....

theres gonna be subtle differences in comfort for the fact they were not made the exact same way and the differences in each individuals foot...

i like 2013  i like 2001's all bout personal preference

Yea that's why I prefer the 01s because the blue pops a lot, I know the 13s are truer to the OG color but the 2001 blue is by far the best
 
Thanks for helping out everyone, really want them but no size 10. Ill find a pair under retail soon.

For anyone still looking for this years 3M upper, Retro 1 BHM's -

Livestock has them left in a size 11.5, 12, and 14.  They are regularly $155 on there, but from today until May 24th you can use code LS1YR on any purchase to save 25% off your entire order.  This brings them back down to $116.25 (which is less than US retail plus tax) plus $12 shipping anywhere in the US.  You can get them for near retail on eBay, but I like to buy from a legit retailer when at all possible.  There were a lot of posts about them earlier, so just thought I would share in case anyone was still interested.
