That banana mold

Haven’t been impressed with any 85 so far. Leather and shape seems awful on all the colorways.

 

[vinotwofour]

I hope they fix that toebox. The reverse bred and the white/red 85's toebox also didn't appeal to me too much

 

[po2345]

f*ck you FTL

F you indeed. FTL just taking points. They giving 1 pair away? I'm good.

PO

That Shape Is Still Way Off Just Like The Other “85” Releases ESPECIALLY That Toebox!

Come On JB!

Didn't wanna be the first person to say something about that toe box when I saw the pics earlier. Glad you went there haha. It looks awful.

Pass on the nubuck/suede/whatever UNC’s

I'm still skeptical if those leaks are real though, as in I still don't believe NGs release next year. Most likely fakes and they look like a poor remake of the current remaster mold or something weird.

wasn't the whole purpose of the 85 mold to get the shape right?

Same thing I thought that toe box is awfully clownish

I was thinking NGs were a must at any means necessary but those are looking like a retail or bust situation

No Cap, I’d Take Current AJ 1 Retro Shape Over This Lame Attempt At The “85” Remaster.

****s A Damn Shame

 

[Lucky13s]

Not awful but also not worth a dime over retail.

Those are not worth a dime, period. Maybe we should chill on lecturing others on taste? Thanks.

Might be a little long.....

Met the guy around college cause he was dating a girl I've known since elementary school. He wasn't entirely taking his life seriously I guess...but he told me he looked up to me and wanted get his life together like me (which she wanted too...he's only a month younger than me).

They broke up but we still remained friends and I'd oop him pairs...which didn't really bother me cause for the most part it was easy for me to get them and I was already getting myself a pair anyway (he was a 10.5 and I'm an 11...he'd usually end up taking an extra 11 I got). Gave him those random 40 pairs over years but the ones I miss the most are all 1s....Jeter OGs, Black Toes, Game Royals, Shadows...all at cost. Never needed or got an oop back; he couldn't get them on his own (not to mention it'd take months for him to pay me for some of these, but he always did).

My brother and I own our townhome together; one weekend he told his ex-gf (who he was still friendly with) that she and her friends could stay at our place while they were in town for the weekend. I was in the midst of recovering from my 5th back surgery (a multi-level spinal fusion), and that weekend was actually the first one since the surgery that I could remove my brace. I was exhausted even supporting my own weight for the first time in 3 months trying to walk around rebuilding core strength during rehab. My brother (who took care of me for most of it) and I stayed at our parents that first night cause I didn't wanna go out and wanted to spend time with my dog. Apparently this friend was talking to the ex-gf but didn't know at the time she was my brother's ex (she didn't know we were friends either). He found out exactly when they all went back to my place for post-game....a place he's been to several times. He knew at that point...but still went inside and made moves on her....on my couch without me there. Nah......bros before ****. At the very least he could have talked to my brother about what was going on before anything happened...but to even try something in my house like that after all my generosity?? I didn't need or ask for anything in return for helping him, but I still expected loyalty, and that will always extend to anything related to my brother. I gave him enough chances before I finally just said it was enabling him versus actually providing him guidance while he tried to get his life and career together (which I think he is better now but we don't talk).

It's funny cause the weekend the Homages released, I was either in Paris or Austin for fun (was traveling a lot at the time)....I won two pairs on the foot apps and changed the name on my account to him and told him to go get them; one of the pairs was his to keep. He tells me the next day he got drunk the night before and missed the pickup deadline. I got a pair on a FTL restock (and a pre-order) so I still had two anyway. He apologized profusely but asked me what I was gonna do with the second pair.....he didn't outright ask but it seemed obvious he was still angling for it. It's my brother's pair now. I don't think it was that he was drunk versus that he simply didn't have the money for them, but man....the one time I tell you to do something and you mess up. I'd have left you some cash like a kid needing lunch money if you needed it

Good riddance. Sounds like he just used your friendship and never gave anything back. All relationships should be mutually beneficial (respect/help/etc).

I like to UNDS shoes when I travel, or for a birthday, special event, etc. That way, whenever I wear the shoes in the future I recall those great memories.

Long story short-ish: Had a friend of 20 years, I was his best man at his wedding, UNDS my Cap ‘N Gown 11s for the reception. I had held on to them for almost a year just so I could UNDS them for that moment. Flash forward, he’s been radicalized online with some extreme far-right conspiracy crap. I warned him several times that I wasn’t interested and that if he kept spamming me with that then we wouldn’t be friends. He didn’t stop. Final straw was when he said some racial crap to diminish my accomplishments I worked extremely hard for and am very proud of. Nahhh. Peace out.

This was about three months ago. Haven’t heard from him since. Yes, it’s sad, but honestly my life has been so much less stressful without that garbage polluting my brain and soul.

Edit: Forgot to mention, I don’t even want my Cap ‘N Gowns anymore, he ruined them for me.

All in on those University blue joints. Nice clean colorway and I like that they switched up the material a lil.
