Official Jordan 1.5

Let's pose a scenario. If the toebox wasn't as boxy and built to a slant while the overall shape of the shoe was reminiscent of the Air Jordan 1 Retro "Chicago" while still keeping the Air Jordan 2 sole, would ya'll cop then or nah?

Trying to poll to see if people are more bothered by the shape of the shoe rather than the 2 midsole.

Nope, that's me tho. ONLY way I would cop is if I wasn't worried about money, and I could buy whatever, whenever. I would get them JUST BECAUSE it's 2 classic models molded into one and for collection sake. I'd have them on display in my mancave between a pair of Chicago 1s & 2s. But since that's not the case LoL.......

exactly, that was my gripe with them, if they looked like 1s but with a 2 sole i would buy but the toe bows out and is mad rounded like a clown shoe, even the slant upwards doesnt bother me

That's exactly what I noticed homie. Repped for pointing that out. Good attention to detail.

Yea, I don't like the yellowish color and how you can see the stuffing through the tongue centering loop. I still want to cop, but not for retail. They seem to be sitting on shelves, so hopefully these will be sent to clearance outlets.

More than likely they will. Also, they're a lot lighter than I thought they would be. Thought the sole would be heavy from the pics but in-person it's foamy-like so the shoe is real lightweight.
 
saw this on facebook. poster said myrtle beach, i called them and the rep told me they dont have them.

Is the tongue yellowish because of the stuffing in it or is that the actual color of the tongue material?

It's the stuffing. The nylon on the face of the tongue is thin enough to let the yellow foam show thru. I don't mind it a bit, tho - gives it a more 'retro' look. I absolutely love these. I have about 250 pairs of kicks and try not to repeat wears as much as possible, but these I've decided to wear at least once a week (worn 5x already, and ZERO creasing). They look so nice on foot and are so insanely comfortable. I'll probably double up if I can get the 2nd pair on disco, and I'll be 1st in line at my local HoH if they release the royals & breds. They're easily one of my favorite retro Js already.

Got my Chicago pair today and these aren't that bad. Even though the toe box is just a tad big I like the overall look of the shoe
 
Just saw these in person for the first time today. I was surprised Tbh these actually aren't that bad esp if you're a lil footer.

So will we ever see JB drop the retro 4+ blue speckle that was supposed to be after 25 years of waiting?
