Shadows are over $500... I remember when you could grab them for retail or less after release date. What is this world coming to? (and why didn't I see this coming so I could stockpile them and cash out.....)

I can find ANY one of those pairs cheaper than what they sold for
Found a worn 3x pair of shadows for $120 with og everything a month or 2 back.
Patience wins 99% of the time
If not, there's always another release in 2 weeks.
I'm finally wrapping my head around that now

How much do Jordan 1s stretch out? I'm a TTS length of 9 but I just go with a 9.5 to have comfortable toe space. For the 1s the width is a killer to my pinky toe (ends up red after about an hour of wear) even with size 9.5 so I was thinking about size 10, but It's pretty long that way... would the 9.5 stretch up to the width of a 10?

Jordan's stretching to the point to get to .5 bigger? Nah.

corgishoe just put up size 9 2001 breds and royals, asking for email offers. What's an average price on these? Thinking about emailing him and finally pulling the trigger.

I dunno about you but even if I go half a size too big they look long and dumb on me. A whole size good luck with that.

Im a little salty JB finally got the tongue right on the remastered mold. Now everytime I see the paper thin tongues on these past NA retros, I have *insertjacksonvillefan expression.
I wouldn't complain if they didnt purposely do us foul

It wouldn't b. But the shoe could break in per say and stretch since it's a raw material anyway but idk.

Just enough for my pinky to not suffer on the edges of the shoe. I have kind of wide feet and it hurts like a *****

Don't forget the tongue loop instead of just the OG two slits. They cutting corners like Wendy's.

I actually do like the tongue loop
I know its not OG, but the alternative makes lacing up '94s and '01s an issue

It can be done fellas. I bought this to experiment on a pair of BmP black toes. Same situation as
mcho24
with the size issue.
Both are being stretched in the pic.
It works! and well worth the $9
