Damn just pulled the trigger at 148.25 out the door for a size 9.
I def. did not want to cop another pair of shoes after dropping 222 on the 8's.
Couldn't help myself with all the glowing reviews though. NOOOOOO.

Prices going up it seems.... Glad I doubled up, didn't want to get to greedy. 141 shipped on stockx is like 111 bid getting accepted after fees

 

[zerodeefex]

Just perfect on foot.

 

[jaynev]

Really are a perfect pair

Makes me forget about highs, low key

Highs still in rotation

85 highs?
Haven’t pulled out black red royal bt’s anything in forever

 

[headdetective]

High/low 85s only bro

 

[engineer]

These fit slightly more snug than the normal og lows. Maybe 1/4 size smaller.

High/low 85s only bro

only way to go with 1s now - if it aint an 85, easy pass

 

[trappedintime]

Only been a couple 85’s so can’t agree with that. Make them available and in more colorways and I might start getting there

 

[headdetective]

I like that it’s only been a few as opposed to the millions pairs of OG highs

 

[ModernMade]

Anyone else feel their toe box has a lot of space on their 85 lows? Length feels great to me....but after really putting them on, I feel like the box area is just extra bulky....

85 highs are super easy pass for me. 85 lows I will cop tho.

Yeah there isn't a low that could ever make me forget about the high counterpart

Reason?

Reason?

I despise the ugly jacked up toebox.

That was the first thing I pointed out on the comparison in this thread a couple weeks ago. It looks like it’s taller, wider, bulkier.

Interested to compare on foot myself but it appears bigger in the forefoot and much more snug at the back of the foot.

But…that’s how they looked in 85!

 

[jordanhead718212]

Depends on the factory the shoe was manufactured in. Some were sleek, some were more bulbous. IYKYK.

 

[trappedintime]

That’s the look right there

My ‘85s didn’t look like this

I would’ve skipped getting them if so.

However, the ‘85 High Retro isn’t even as good as this.

You didn't care about toe box shape in 1985, please stop it

And if you don't think the '85 retro toe box doesn't looks similar to that or better then idk what to tell you honeestly.

Nah, I wont. This is my original 1985 tag I kept from since then. If you don’t think I was obsessed with this shoe then you’re crazy. I knew the details and what I had…but carry on.
