The 85s are weird, it’s not like the OG and you can’t tell the right from left shoe just by looking sometimes lol.
The collar and heel is a disappointment, OG collar was higher and the heel was thicker. The 85 Bred heel looks like somebody shaved it down slightly. I ain’t even wore my 85 Breds...
This 85 BS is a gimmick, can’t tell me otherwise. Other than ppl on here I don’t even see 85s in the wild lol.
The ‘17 Royal is a decent retro all things considered, I still have my 2nd pair DS so I’ll grab the ‘26 at some point for below retail.
Def should be able to get on disco, I still have the 04 pair and I wish these would be easy to put on like those were. It’s my favorite color way of this shoe so I might not wait and just grab when they release.
I agree that 85’s aren’t as comfy, and I feel it’s a gimmick, it’s similar to 85 but it ain’t that. It’s close but not that close. The heel on the 85 Breds ain’t like that on the actual OG pairs.
Ppl just be reaching, Nike used that BS as a gimmick. If Nike would bring 85’s out that aren’t...
Crazy I still have that Tuscan pair, last I checked the midsole on my pair was good but it’s still a 12 year old shoe so I’ll probably just get rid of em.
