Official Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG Thread

Weather delays in the mid west. Its gonna be a wait for these...


Hm that's weird. My NDC is schedule for delivery today. Champs, however, is delayed till at least saturday.
Not really, 2 day shipping prolly beat the weather. If it wasn't 2 day shipping then yeah that would be weird even though its 2 different stores in 2 different locations.

Ahhh - when I checked out I didn't do the free 2 day shipping promo.  I figured I wasn't wearing them right away and didn't want to chance getting the screen locked up or time out.  Paranoid I guess, but those FA experiences carry over.
 
Walked into a random FTA during my lunch break and copped another pair with the Bday coupon.

That's what I like!

I want to double up, but I'd rather wait to see the other lows

Depending on the BLUE, I hope the BLUE are more like the 01s.  Hearing how the quality sucked on these no longer surprises me, but it's a disappointment.
they said quality like the 2013 releases of jordan 1..not great but not bad
 
Gonna get rid of my pair smh, the narrow fit is unbearable, and it's literally on ONE shoe, the left shoe...
 
Glad most were able to snag wit no problem. A few mom and pops near me still have em. I'm just really excited for the neutral grays. Fingers crossed for metallic reds and blues.

This is why I always go .5 size up for AJ1s. Regardless of the year or model. I feel like these run more TTS than the highs though. probably due to less ankle padding.
 
We gotta take into account everyone's foot is different. It just sucks that we rarely have the opportunity to try anything on in store anymore :lol
 
Tell me about it. I remember when the Infrared 11 lows dropped I was going to try a pair on at this consignment store that gets new releases. Don't ask me how because from what I hear Nike won't do business with consignment stores. Dude was like "Don't step off that rug...I can do $350 for those." I handed that lame the shoe and told him I'm not putting my foot any where near those for $350

I'm a true 8.5 and go with a 9 in the highs. The 8.5 in the lows was good because of the lack of padding. A 9 was doable as well, just slight looseness without tightening the laces too tight. So if your .5 sized up you should be good. Again, 8.5 is what my foot measures on the foot scale, these do not run big.

As far as quality, the red portion is pleather, no mistake about that. The black portion is a low grade leather. Definitely not on par with the Highs. JB definitely cheaped out on this release. But for 105 with the bday coupon, it was bearable for the colorway.

Length wise TTS, width...they aren't necessarily TIGHT, but you gotta pick the lesser of the 2 evils...a really long, nice width shoe, or a perfect length, tight shoe

I hear ya.I had to go up a whole size in the kd4,lebron 9 and Kobe 9 flyknit so I am used to shoes being .25 to big but I need that extra width.
 
I feel you on the fit break down. I wore mine with thin socks last night. Although I didn't have heel slippage I could tell I had to tie them tighter. I'm only rocking Elites with the lows.

I wish I could just stock up on Lebron 8-10 insoles. I had these in my sz 11.5 Shadows but they aren't long enough for my sz 12s. This was the best insole ever in a pair of AJ1s.
 
Tried these on. TTS or .5 down imo and I have Fred Flinstone type feet.

I gotta have a defect pair then cause the issue is only on the left shoe, not even a sizing issue tbh, it's literally on the inside of the ball of my foot, pain coming from the side where the 3 first lace holes are

That's what I'm thinking as well. I had the same issue with a pair of Shadow's.

Definitely in for more OG styled low's. :smokin
