looks like wrestling shoes
 
this is what Sneaker News said: "Like the Nike Dunk High before it, it appears that the Air Jordan 1 is going Skinny on us. Shown here is the Air Jordan 1 Skinny GS, a shoe that’s name suggests it as an antithesis to the likes of the old “Phat” designation. The shoe features the OG “Chicago” looking colorway but it’s build is anything but OG-as there’s an extended, bootie like silhouette, a slimmed down sole, and some Torch looking paneling up towards the top. See the out-of-nowhere Air Jordan 1 Skinny GS after the jump and grab your pair now from Corporate."
 
Do the knicks just come with black tipped orange laces or did they come with 2 sets? I just picked up some ds Knicks from a mod at SC marketplace for $165shipped. what do y'all think looks best on knicks, orange, royal or white laces?

IMO Orange (black tips are dope) > Royal > white
 
My custom Chicagos with a "Nike" tage. I know it's not a "NIKE AIR" tag but it works for now. I will probably change it when i find a pai of tags. The tongue is not the taditional wide tongues found in AJ1s and dunks, they're from a pair of vintage blazers. So i can actually put my jeans behind the tongue without the tongue looking so big. The downside, there is no sockliner, but all i care was for a general look of an OG pair and comfort because the leather tongues wee not cutting it. A big shoutout to [COLOR=#red]AirThompson[/COLOR] for the tips and advice.

Excellent work my boy!
 
Some sizes in the Vegas were available for phone order at the Las Vegas South Outlet. Called to order a 10.5 earlier.
 
Nice job on the Chicagos! The more I look at that pic of the shadows the more I see the textured print on the gray Ala the 09 pair.....any chance that is the 09 pair in the pic?

I see what you're saying. The toe box looks as if it has a textured print but the '09 pair had an imprinted wings logo. The '13 pair that is supposedly in that pick has a black wings logo like the OG's.
 
Just got my Vegas in. Y'all weren't playing when your guys were talking about the quality. The leather is definitely close to the banneds and 09 shadows. It is actuall leather because its heavy and has that destinct leather smell. Definitely the last pai of 1s to drop with real leather. Very happy with my purchase.
