No need to change a classic shoe that has never retroed. Just leave it OG with the canvas, that would be
If they dropped this as a AJKO premium with that bannned quality leather

I'll bite. Leather wears alot worse than the canvas ko's. Anyone with royals will tell u they can look like beaters after 10 wears, these Ko's uphold their shape and stay crispy even after repeated wears. I'd rather my Ko's on a day to day basis than my royals. But das just me.

Got the custom tags in - took about 7 business days to arrive.
They are on a canvas type material, it's a bit shiny - almost like waxed laces. They are the same size as the Nike Air tags on AJ1. The backside of the tag is an off-white color.
On the upper part of the tag, the part that goes behind the tongue, instead of the Nike swoosh trademark info there's a snippet about the company - doesn't bother me but might bother some of y'all.
I found that the red on the tags really matched the red on the KOs - I would assume that this would hold true for the sport blues. The logo and lettering is printed on, and is pretty close to the size of last years NA 1 retros. Again, cost was $17 via PP.
I'll be traveling to Montreal this week and next, but once I'm back I'll have the wifey sew them on.
Here's a few pics for now:

Nice, now all you have to do is take the white and red soles from the recent OG pair that release and have them resewn to that Blk/Rd pair. Good to go.

Way too much work for me.
I've tried taking the jumpman off of the heel on one of my AJ1 beaters (mids) before and now I have a jumpman on the right foot and teen wolf on the left foot. Lesson learned.

New to the KOs but I'm assuming the more you wear them the toe box will crease. How easy is it to upkeep/fix a pair with some wrinkles?

you cant try to just take the threads off, you have to pretty much make a hole in the heel to remove it all and then patch it from there, its not hard but its tedious to make it perfect

Just picked up a pair of white/red AJKO's with the weathering look to it. Had to smell them to make sure they were DS, they were already so pre-beat on the midsole and outsole. I hope they release these again in OG style. Any white canvas with colored (or gray/black) swoosh would get me. I actually prefer the beat up look and wouldn't care if they got dirty.
