Official Air Jordan 1 Retro High Thread Vol: Best Model/Thread

[jshortt]

No, my comment wasn't directed at you, my boy. Just saying. Don't get me wrong, I make slight adjustments, adoptions, changes, etc. But my style has essentially been the same for forever. It's about having a TIMELESS style. That way you don't have to follow trends. You make slight tweaks. Meanwhile the followers swapping out they whole wardrobes every few years. It's insane. It's a money grab bro. And trust me, I'm outside. All I see is dudes spending $2k wearing lame asz amiri denim bc they were told it was cool and they want to be accepted. WTF I look like at 40 with a bunch of stars all over my jeans. That sht gon be played out in t-minus 5 seconds.

Ding, ding, ding! I've trimmed up my jeans and sizing over the years, but for the most part my style has remained pretty similar to how it's always been. Change the cuts/fit, but Levi's aren't ever going out of style haha!

Which of the original 14 aren't timeless in your opinion?

Almost seems sacrilege to admit on NT, but I think I just wear most Jordans out of nostalgia. (I'm also partial to 16, 18, 19 and 28.) 1's are almost interchangeable with any retro sneaker, and I tend to wear 3's and 11's a lot. Sometimes I'll wear 1, 3 or 11 to the office. I've never loved 2's, but if I wear any another Jordan it's about nostalgia. I try to stick with OG colors at that. But I'm aware that if my jeans don't fit right or if I'm wearing a dad-shirt, I run the risk of looking dated.

There needs to be an "Old NTers" thread.

But they have obnoxious graffiti on them whereas at least 2.0s are subtle and clean.

The quality on the 2.0's irked me to death. I wanted to like them, but that chalky grey was an eye sore. Plus the leather was stiff.
The all over is a nice touch for me on the Rebellionaires and it actually came out well.. I didn't like them when I saw images of them online, but in person It sat well with me. The graffiti doesn't bother me as much, the same way the Laser printing on the White/red IV's didn't. I liked those too.
I'm also a big fan of the Jordan 23s haha.

Whats wrong in my statement, though haha? Didn't say I didn't naturally evolve, but there are some classics that are classics for a reason.

Love seeing all the Union pics! My Jordan 2s just came in so took a quick Union family pic.

there is no way you got all that for retail. So you might some Ua on that self…. or you paid a small Fortune for it facts

5 retail, 3 resale. Legit checked the resale pairs myself (compared them closely to the retail ones) AND on check check. Pretty sure I’m good. Thank you for your concern though, bud.

Nothing was wrong. I relate and I'm probably older than you. We should have our own safe space.

Don’t come in here with your heat, we’ve got fashion to debate and Jean shorts are the front runner!

I haven’t worn jorts in at least a decade, but might have to bring them back!

All good on my end

Idc about hype. I'm all about the aesthetic, if it looks good then it looks good. All iterations of the Union 4s are trash imo. Glad you got to complete the Union collection tho.

If you didn’t have all those mids you could have the same unions as he does

I have black toe unions and storm blue unions I am good plus all my mids I have 110 Jordan’s and that does not include my mids and you have how many. Maybe you should stop riding his Di@k and worry about what you have.

Cool cool. I actually did win 8 Unions retail, manually, so it’s definitely possible. Union blesses locals with their in-store raffles, and I hit on a couple through their site too. I traded two doubles to help me get the rest.

Amiri (skinny) denim which youre referring to isnt even in.

Too much worrying about what the next human male wears going on in here. Yikes.
