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

[amitt5504]

 
Just got a lead one some Vegas 1's on the local FB group.  Were there ever any GM's of those?

The actual pear I'm looking at look check out in all areas and appear to be in very nice condition.  

No, not that I know of, they released well before the Royal fiasco (which eventually led to the rise of GMs)

Ok...now maybe on these, discount of course, I think it was just that motorboat size that was shown that made them look weird

Not my pic BTW, seen it on Twitter

I think these going on discount is out of the question. The majority of those that missed out on the mids will beast for these. The other pairs are going to low enthusiasts and resellers. The only chance that they'll be marked down is B-grades. I don't recall the mids hitting outlets with B-grades though.

This man knows. And, these are just as limited as all other OG highs..

Little history... 

All retro 1 OGs have been VERY small (pairs), Retro 1 mids are huge....... Everything with a NIKE AIR is, well i cant give pairs, but youd be amazed how many pairs are in the market, and all colors have been the same distribution wise, whether you have laneys or breds, the same pairs hit the market ...some are just more hyped than others and command a higher resell value.

The lows will be copped.... if you missed out on any of your fav hyped OG high colors.... i would say theres a chance you could grab that color in the lows.... thats the most i can say.

^Those are definitely legit. I've owned those before and currently have the White/Rd pair. They'll last you. Not the most comfortable since they lack ankle padding but I was very impressed with the quality. I love '94 1s the best. They look worn but have plenty of life left after you clean them up. I say do it.

you should be good. Ice never seen GMs of them. Just one pair of fakes that were off

You have my attention with that last part. What're you alluding to exactly? Are more than just Blk/Rd and Wht/Gry OG 1s potentially dropping or are you just speculating?

I would do that jersey trade for royals. You can wear kicks all the time only a jersey once in a while, unless you're a serious collector. Then I would pay to get it signed and make a bar in the basement and hang it up lol

Hahaha gotta love the NT Cycle of Consumption. Why pay for a Marketing Department at Nike?

 

[shenggg]

Kudos to those who hated them first. I wasn't sure if was gonna cop now I think I'm in. But still need more pics.

 

[shenggg]

Remebe myfirst pair of 1s were phat low Breds. Lmao.

This. This is what annoys me going into NT. Opinions don't mean anything anymore when people hate a shoe, see more pics and finds it might be limited, then they NEED to have them, then they get them and realize they aren't as limited and all of a sudden don't know why they bought them and need to sell em.

Desire is consuming.

Maybe I'm just too fed up with the "sneaker culture" and should log off for a while or stay in the general forums.

this. i was against the black/red lows because I'm not a low top guy and don't car for hype but seeing those pics on feet changed my decision almost to want to cop. some people act like others can't have a personal opinion without trying to state it as facts. still passing on those lows. i can only cop retros i like right away because trying to secure a pair has become too much of a hassle

Those people copping on their impulses will usually regret it.

thats what usually happens then when I'm running low on space and cash i always gotta take that sad look in my closet 

 

[geraldg2309]

seandon23 I know that feel.

 

[sahchiog]

Feel like the bred lows are gonna be the same as the royal KOs situation wise... Probably won't cop tho, gotta see em on foot in person first

 

[mnyce]

Bored and snowed in. Finally had all my Favorite 1's together.

plus had some time to reorganize the closet.

 

[searchin4js]

Anyone remember if retail on Family Forevers was $140 or $120? Found a pair for $135 on Flight Club, might bite the bullet...

 

[lovehateself]
