Gotta love Jordan elitists who weren’t even around in the original run of the 1. :lol:

A nice sneaker is a nice sneaker. Period.

This is comedy, as are many of your posts.


That argument makes no sense. There's OGs on here that skipped on all recent iterations of the 3-6s cuz of the Jumpman at the back instead of the Nike Air. It's personal preference.

This 100%

I agree!
Top release thus far. (PGs,CPs,RTs are nowhere near.)
Someone had mentioned that the ROTYs were similar. And the suede on these are even better than the ROTY.
2 completely different suede's were used, Smoke grey suede is like jordan 13s and ROTY suede is more like the TS1
 
It’s stupid. I bet most OG’s copped OG colorways when Gentry refused to use Nike Air years back.

I didn’t purchase a single OG colorway (3,4,5,6) Jordan from 2003 until the BC 3 in 2018. That’s fifteen years of refusing to purchase a 3 through 6 because Gentry butchered classics with a Jumpman on the heel. All of my fellow older heads that are into sneakers that I know caved on some of the releases because they never owned the originals. At the end of the day it’s just preference and nobody should be ridiculed for what they like.
 
Wearing these around today. Loving the zoom strobel.

If you’re hardcore OG and never bought a Jordan with a Jumpman on the back then ok, but don’t be a hypocrite if you have shoes with a Jumpman on the back. There were those years that had Jumpman’s on 1s, 3s, 5s, 6s, etc. and people didn’t have a choice if they wanted the shoes. It’s just how it was, not to mention during those years they did make some nice 1’s with the Jumpman...the Gucci 1’s, Road to the Gold 1’s, and Shadow 1’s are Just some to name a few; and other numbered models they did well too. Yes, they did butcher their fair share, but that’s all people had at the time. You had to pick and choose. The bottom line, if you’re hardcore OG and stayed away, cool...but if have shoes with Jumpman’s in your closet or bought them back during that time then don’t be a hypocrite or an elitist NOW.
