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

[geraldg2309]

1's.... And then I like a variety for the rest of the models. Best that comes to mind though for my non 1 top 3 is white cement 4s ( airthompson teasing me the other day ), black cement 3s, Space jam XIs

My BWs have tumbled leather on my swoosh too but it's not all tumbled

Wish I didn't sleep on BW 1s man. Now I can't find them anymore for a decent price. Hate how dudes feel the need to tax on 1s

They will only be going up. Same tax that hit the shadows and black toes. It's supply and demand fam.

Definitely. Will have to pick up barons and gums before they rise. I guess thats what happens when JB finally retros a jordan right. 

Thinking about picking up a pair of the celtics to customize into my own black and gold.

was talking about this in the Jordan I Black & White thread figured id put it up in here too… Got my double of the black/white 1s the other day, and the outside swooshs check is or looks like its tumbled leather… thought it was weird but someone else said theres were like it too, anyone else have this issue? Heres some pics

Pretty normal. 1 pair has it on the inside and my other pair has it on the outside.

When identifying real vs fake what's this "widows peak" I keep reading about.

 

[peekthasneaks]

My small 1st collection. Didn't include the 2015 BHM and those horrendous 2013 Chi 1s.

I assume many of you have the 1s as your favorite Jordans, but what are your other two favorite jordans if we had to narrow it down to your top 3?

I would go with the Jordan 3 as my second favorite shoe. Mostly because of shape, but also because it's easy to get it on and off, and I don't have to worry about things like lace locks or wings.

3rd place goes to the Jordan 4 in my book, again because of the slick shape, and the wings of course. Gives it a distinct shape/look IMO.


How about you guys? What are your top favorite 3 Js, and why? Would be interesting to hear it from other 1s fans.

1s, 3s, 4s 

 3s being my fav probably. That OPM life tho  , i see you.

So sad i slepts on BWs too smh. retail or bust so im waiting for the chicagos

Mines are 3, 4, 1, 8, 13

But if were talking colorways Blk Red 1s, Blk Cement 3, and Wht Cement 4s.

 

[bigsykedaddy]

 Mine would be 1's, 3's, 4's, 11's

1's, 3's, 5's. 

1's are my faves because it was the first Jordan that I ever bought. 3's on the second because they really look great. 5's on the third because of the color combinations that Nike made in '90.

 

[the 718 truth]

I'd have to say 1,3, and 4 or 5 (4's might get the slight edge). 1's and 3's are the most versatile J's imo. My top 3 colorways would have to be black toe 1, fire red 3, and royal 1. I don't really "need" anything past those 3

 

[Liquid Swords]

1's
10's
12's

 

[sneakaprince]

1, 3, 4, all because of their diversity.

I also love the 6 but only in certain color ways.

Cosign. If I had to choose 1 more for top 4 it would def be the 13s. Will never forget gettin black/red 13s in Elementary and couldn't wait to wear them to school and play basketball in them. Beat that pair to the ground lol.

Them damn widow peaks 

 I remember when I got played from eBay seller Zadeh Kicks right after they released. Dude was pretty credible at the time yet he sent me that garbage.

Same here. I would replace your 8's for 7's. I can't wait to get back my Chrome and Aqua 8's though

 

[seandon23]

My top 5 would be 13, 5, 7, 1, 4/11

Can't decide between the last 2

1's, 3's, and 4's.

 

[af1 1982]

BC3 is the GOAT

 

[iriesupreme]

1,3,11

I sold everything else.

Minor exceptions are taxis and infrared 6. I also only do original color ways in 3s.
