Official Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG Thread

[engineer]

Part of me thinks they changed the mold since it was too similar to the TS lows. It honestly makes no sense to me how these modern OG lows are somehow worse than the 2016 run. That small swoosh is nasty work.

I think they changed it due to the 85s. Those would be a hard sell against the 2015 mold with decent quality materials and good colorways.

Pretty scummy move by JB to purposefully make a product worse tbh

As soon as I saw that satin lining, I thought "Oh ****, these are WMNS, aren't they?". Yep. Hope they're extended sizes, but also kinda hope that they aren't and such releases continue to sit hard so that there is a chance Nike/JB learn from it. No reason to exclude bigger sizes on these releases.

Wish the oxidized greens didn't have the off white sole. I still like my sneakers to look new.
