Broke out the union shirt today

With all the crap they’ve been putting out these actually are starting to look decent

lol nothing I can do about it. It got perma dirty during renovations and we’re not getting rid of it until we replace the doors it’s attached to this summer. Y’all just gonna have to trust I wouldn’t come on here with ashy knees lol

That was painfully a lot of unnecessary information btw.
 
also, the union x bbs have been decent from the jump. ive got 5-6 wears on my pair and the toe box looks pristine. maybe the that baseball globe stich deflects stress away from the toe box or something but theyve been holing up great
 
I thought about buying the court purples for two years, but didn’t think I’d be able to match that much purple with a lot of outfits.

But once I saw them in person, I knew they were going to be one of my favorite pairs. The purple pops so good.

I’ll be wearing these a TON.

Also they covered in glitter, which honestly doesn’t bother me at all. I actually think I like it.

…call me Davey MaGlitter.

I miss the $100 days. It was aiight at $140. But now it’s the price of a regular sneaker today due to inflation and popularity.
 
I honestly think green glows gonna sit and can be had for 120ish once the dust settles. Can't wait for disco season to arrive.
This is the only non-Travis AJ 1 release I’m looking forward to this year but they aren't worth anything close to retail so I hope you’re right.

Really JB.!! This was the only release in a high for 2024 I was looking forward to. Hopefully they will still release these.
Damn I saw those got cancelled for this year along with the Black and Red 6's. I guess Nike dropping too many sneakers back to back.

Makes me think they see the writing on the wall with all the releases that are bricking and sitting on shelves awaiting deep discounts.
 
Was thinking the same as you!
Honestly, this might be a really good thing, ultimately.

They’ll put more time and thought into cw designs and/or improve quality (vs the sheer quantity of releases we get now). Maybe we’ll even get more OG cws with higher stock numbers.

Would love to see Breds/Royals/Shadows/Chis/Black Toes FINALLY release as 85s with massive stock to boot.

I would be happy to see a massive slow down of releases for another couple of years.

Honestly the masses need an 08 like reset.

This article from today touches on the bigger pic at Nike and how it’s depending too much on retros. Doesn’t specifically mention Jordans but it does note a reduction in AF1 volume to make way for new shoes.

Absolutely.

Honestly, I wish they would just vault the OG AJ 1 Highs for a few years and end the Zoom CMFT line completely. I also wish they would just release 85s in OG cws and Mids (for casual AJ 1 fans/people who can’t afford highs).
