Official Air Jordan 1 Retro High Thread Vol: Best Model/Thread

[kintan]

Horrible in person compared to the 1.0. Toe box and side panels are colored like mud not truly sail. Orange parts are hard and stiff. If anyone on the fence... pass on them believe me.

How stiff? Like, 2013 Chicago 1 stiff?

 

[Cllctr_bh]

Not that stiff. But pretty close to that

Is it the same leather(orange part) that's on the black part of the bred 2016?

ups attempted to deliver my '13 royals yesterday from SS, but i missed them... :x

but they are redelivering today and i'm not going anywhere til they get here...

 

[itsmorphintime]

At the office...

Absolutely not. The black parts on the Breds are buttery compared to these

instead of cutting up a fugazi pair, couldnt we donate it to the Salvation Army or a homeless person on the street?

He said in the post he had to destroy them

Still scooping

So far no stores in my city are getting the sbb aways. Launch locators are up for footlocker , champs and foot action

oh word, eBay cares that much? Thats unfortunate. But makes sense.

so, it feels good to finally be able to say i'm the proud owner of a ds (not for long), authentic pair of royals. my 1st thoughts are that the neoprene tongue is really weird and i don't like it compared to the og nylon tongue on all my other pairs (i don't have knicks). also, the leather is nowhere near as stiff as i've heard ppl complain about. both the toebox and black leather on my pair is actually quite soft, in fact noticeably softer than my '13 breds.

these are def. a thing of beauty and all things considered i feel like they were pretty much worth the price i paid (not literally, but u know what i'm saying). i'm very satisfied with them and they pretty much confirm that i'm not a fan of the tumbled leather on 1s except for the OG SBBs. i don't like the tumbled leather on my '16 breds and i won't like it my '17 royals. that said, imo, other than the overall better leather quality...

'13 >> '16

good thing they aren't ruining the BTs with tumbled leather (at least according to pics...)

Man.

That tumbled leather over time will look good.

As much as I'm not a massive fan of the tumbled leather - I still prefer it over the 13.

If they got rid of the tumbled leather on the check - I'd be happier than a dog licking peanut butter off a knife

 

[ogmcmxcii]

Please put tumbled leather on Royals JB

Tumbled leather on the Royals isn't confirmed..

yeah, i know, but i'm assuming they'll be made exactly like '16 breds. it only makes sense, imo. afterall, it's the same exact shoe with a different accent color. just my opinion/assumption, but we'll see soon enough.

 

[sonicjai]

Rocking my '16 breds today in rainy NYC weather.  Man the shoe is so comfortable after each wear, really can rock these all day long.  The slight creasing in the toebox with the tumbled leather... woooooo.  

So glad I copped a pair of these.  

 

[sonicjai]

Cant keep up with all the messages since I haven't been here in a bit but whats the update on SBB?  They re-releasing them or we talking about the new version dropping?  

 

[126006]

Hi guys, @babyJs23 is unable to be here for this drop, but he should be back soon.
Anyway, he asked me to post links, so here you go.
I'm afraid I'm bad at this, I'm just pasting what was sent.

Thanks and good luck!

Get well soon aj1fam

 

[casper90403]

damn Shattered Backboard prices seemed to have sky rocketed the past couple of months.

Want them at around $350 but that seems like a pipe dream unless i get lucky and stumble into one

 

[bigbobbybugatti]

@babyJs23  Speedy recovery Broski!

how is the red leather holding up after being wet?

Def can be had for $400, if you're willing to be patient and do a little haggling I'm sure you can get them for under 4
