What laces did you use? I have mint in mine that's a pretty dead on match to the kinetic. I did a 1-1 tho....the other shoe is the Union orange lace

Eh… huh?I mean, I get that from the standpoint of a young collector that wasn't old enough to cop a pair of royals and bred when they last released. If you already have both I don't see the point in constantly dropping the same shoe exactly the same over and over. I'd rather a reimagined version once in awhile
Eh… huh?
A new collector who doesn’t have the real royals and breds would be the only reason to buy these reimagines lol. If that’s what you’re saying then yes I agree
Who’s holding a gun to your head forcing you to buy lol. If I have a previous GOOD version in top condition I’m passing on a retro if it’s a 1, since they don’t break down. Maybe a 3 I’d rebuy a fresh pairSo if you're a collector that has the royals already you'd rather they drop them exactly the same again so you can buy the shoe twice?
I have the leather versions of pretty much all of the OGs that released under the remastered shape.I mean, I get that from the standpoint of a young collector that wasn't old enough to cop a pair of royals and bred when they last released.

I’m not a purist either, I’m fine with the reimagined idea… chi’s and 3s were dope and I copped but these here are booboo imoI have the leather versions of pretty much all of the OGs that released under the remastered shape.
Im actually not a purist and I don't mind the reimagined efforts. I think they are cool twist that can help to create nostalgic memories with newer collectors.
With that said I do think the masses are just tired of all the releases. With the economy being in the tank most people aren't dying to spend 180 on a 20th pair of kicks.
A lot of people like the flip. I've heard lots of early Nike SB comparisons which seem appropriate.I’m not a purist either, I’m fine with the reimagined idea… chi’s and 3s were dope and I copped but these here are booboo imo

Yeah the parent breds are gross AFI have Royals + Breds and wanted the suede Royal's,
Passed on the patent and satin Bred's however. They just didn't hit the same.

As someone who has been actively collecting for going on 20 years next year I've seen cycles like this come and go. Honestly these periods are typically looked back on as golden eras for sneakers.Me personally I'm cool with it. I like the space shoes are at right now.
I can't speak to authenticity but it looks like every other cheap resellers site from last decade. Id assume the shoes to be authentic based on prices, but I could be wrong.My nephew sent me this site from his home boy in Atl I told him it's fufu

Damn good point. I didn't look as thoroughly as I should've.Where can you get a pair of Off White 4s for $900 in bigger sizes? Jordan 4 X SB is $220..... I would stay away from that site.
I told my nephew the same thing stay away and I don't care if you are cool with him just stay away he's more in to cars than sneakers.Where can you get a pair of Off White 4s for $900 in bigger sizes? Jordan 4 X SB is $220..... I would stay away from that site.

Hopefully this era stimulates Nike/JB to wake up, stop being lazy on colorways and cutting corners on details & quality.As someone who has been actively collecting for going on 20 years next year I've seen cycles like this come and go.

Stuff can not only be had with ease but can even be found under retail. The fad and hype are sure to return in the next couple of years so enjoy the era while it last.
