I just want some opinions guys, if you had to choose - would you grab the frags or the banneds? Any feedback would be appreciated, I'm kind leaning towards the frags but Idk... I've never spent anywhere close to this on shoes...

I prefer frags... the color is different... banneds are gimmicky to me and breds will forever be retro'd. My guess is that if they make a remastered bred 1, people won't care so much for bannedsI just want some opinions guys, if you had to choose - would you grab the frags or the banneds?

I'd go for the banneds. I just like how they look. Gives off a old-school vibe (was gonna use vintage but that word's only used for wineI just want some opinions guys, if you had to choose - would you grab the frags or the banneds?

the color is different on the banned's as compared to other blk/red's. the leather has an almost original style uneven cut to all the different pieces of the shoe. how are Frags not gimmicky? I agree the colorway is unique but if they didn't have the Fragment logo would they still be as popular? I'm not arguing, just asking for debate purposes and to inform myself. I've never held a pair of Frags so I don't know the quality of them, but the banned's are pretty nice. plus all the extra details to me make them better than Frags. it's def a hard choice, one that I won't have the chance to make.

Minus the Moldi still want the bred ajkos to release...
Hell I'd probably take a gently molded pair right now.
Besides... my feet are strong.

Own Banneds and seen Fragments in person. I'd go with the Banneds....they're still the best quality 1 ever put out by far.

Picked these used chicagos
up locally for 225. Just want to make sure they are legit, can never be too certain these days. http://niketalk.com/t/638103/chicago-1-please-help
Thanks in advanced!
For the condition of the shoes, was 225 a fair deal ? Also could I get a few more opinions on the legitimacy of them por favor . Will rep!

I'm about quality denim.. And if I find the brand that fits me best.. I stick with them.. So far I've only own and rotate my 4 pair of jeans for the past 4.5 years... Not a single problem..
Quality denim will last you a life time... If your happy with h&m that's fine with me...
quality >quantity

I don't really want to go into the whole story about the Air Ship but those who know about the story should know why I think the banneds are gimmicky. I'm sure some people will think the frags are gimmicky too but some people will think that about collabs in general. The CW on the frags prob won't be something they will retro down the line but you never know. I do understand that the quality of the materials used are on a very high level and makes them arguably the highest quality modern day bred 1 out there. Let's just say you had to have shoes with both CW's. Would package would you take if you don't factor in money?
1) Frags + 2013 bred 1
2) Banneds + custom laser frag or equivalent seeing as how there isn't another AJ1 w/ the same CW

It's not even a contest, Banned's. No other 1 comes close to the leather quality on these. Plus, it's an OG colorway. That would be an easy decision for me.
Also, three different sets of laces and other little details that set them apart.

You know I know it. Hey money is meant to be spent. Nothing like a pair of jeans you can go to in the clutch. Idk I was spending like 120 and 140 for akademic jeans but I quickly got over that. If you got a dope shirt and a nice jacket some "decent" jeans will suffice. Just because people can't wrap their mind around how much spend doesn't make you a bad person or anything. Same cats counting your pockets be the same ones in the club blowing $200 on Saturday and Friday. Hey that's denim money right? Dope pics as of late. Thought you was black. Hahahaha. Pretty fly...
