A big part of what keeps me into sneakers has always been the history of the shoes and their respective designs and what inspired them, etc etc but I'll admit the "Christmas morning" feel of getting sneakers has worn off a wee bit, but there are still some pairs that I get excited for when they...

I mean I'm like half the age of a lot of users here and I still feel old sometimes. I probably just spend too much time lost in my own head but I'm aware 30 isn't "old". For proper comedic effect I probably should have said I'd be 70 or something by the time those shoes return.

I always assumed the praise for the SBs came from the improved shape and tooling of the shoe, not the leather.

Feels like I'll be 30 by the time we get Charcoal 7s or Steel 10s again

I'm already prepared to pay resell honestly. All the High '85 releases have been limited and these will be no different. The 40th anniversary isn't going to change that. When has an anniversary ever made JB mass release a pair of OG 1s? I'm not trying to fear monger and would love to be wrong...

Hearing the FedEx horror stories makes me glad my pair was handled by UPS. On release day I hope I can use the FTL app head start thing or even get lucky and pick up an unclaimed pair like I did with one of my pairs of Playoff 8s last year. With a second pair of Military's I'd be done with...

If I ever have kids I'll name them LN and 3. This LN3 stuff is for life.

Still need Sacramento 10s but I hear you.

Be careful. You might get people in here who are willing to dig thru a hundred or so pairs to do a study of the production factories and how they correlate with the shape of the shoe.

TTS imo. Last 4s I had before the shape was changed to what it is now, was the 2020 Fire Reds and those were pinky toe murderers. This new shape and tooling is leaps and bounds better. I can wear them without having to sacrifice my toes to Nike while I break them in. As far as comfort goes, the...

@SteveSteve72 this post right here, officer.

You once said sneakers are an investment. People in here tried to laugh at you but they'll see. One day those dj khaled 5s are gonna be worth a new Mercedes.

I think it's a sentimental thing more often than not. Some people definitely buy doubles, triples and even quadruples and wear their first pair (or first few pairs) into the ground until they reach lawn mowing monarchs status, and then there're others who simply love the shoe so much that they...

Any details on what the Metallic 5s are gonna look like next year? If you can't say it publicly, you can DM me. I won't leak nothing. Scout's honor. :nerd: Also are we ever gonna get Black Tongue 5s?

You're telling me you wanted these to be a regular OG High cut?

I get you. I can't wait for you to get em in hand, I hope you enjoy em. Hopefully you're part of LN3 GANG. 8) The other unlaced pair(s) in here were not from me though. There was a user that unlaced their pair and had them posted next to their unworn and unlaced Black Cements, Fire Reds, etc.

I unlaced them myself. Sometimes Nike laces certain shoes too tightly and it can cause creases and other issues with the materials. My 2022 Cardinal 7s have an indent on the neoprene tongue because of how tightly the lace knot was pressed against the tongue on one of my shoes. Also it allows me...

They better make so many pairs of these that we see them everywhere and on everyone. I want to see Black/Red 1s on mom's, dads, children, pets. Hell I even better see wild animals rocking these. Jordan Brand better not produce these in limited numbers. I will pay resell if I have to, though.

Shock drop pair will be on ice for some time since I'm not sure what kinda pair I'll get on release day. If they're not as nice as these, the release day pair will be worn first. But, I did try them on as gently as I could and without a doubt, these fit perfect. Soooooo much better than the last...

My pair arrived before I got back from work. These are beautiful in hand, imo. Fortunately my pair is pretty much flawless besides the widows peaks on the toes. Definitely looking to get a second pair next month.
