Air Jordan 1 x UNION LA Thread

Just got mine from NDC today. The quality is pretty nice. Definitely better leather than the Lost and Found Chi 1's though not as good as the 2015 chi 1's (those were best leather quality in the past decade IMO). My favorite out of the 3 Jordan 1 x Union LA collab colorways.

After Union site L and no EA on SNKRs, I bit $410 for sz 12 locally. $173 over retail on a California taxed pair. I’m happy with that as it’s roughly equivalent to $350-360 if I got it from GOAT/StockX due to fees/taxes. Will get some pics up soon.

Pair I picked up locally today. Happy with it. No major flaws. Wanted to get in before the fakes start rolling in.

So Nike really did an invite only raffle and people actually didn’t win. Talk about ******ed. 🤦🏾‍♂️

Why not just do exclusive access with guaranteed a pair.
 
Well a “raffle” is never guaranteed lol

2. Even if they gave regular EA, it’s not 100% guarantee either, people still strikeout on EA.
 
EA pair came in this morning. overall Well put together and good materials. The leather isn’t as plush as the BBS neutral greys but they’ve got a nice tumble to them. The exact opposite of the the thicker/thinner lost and founds. Not 2 pair worth like the lost and founds but still good. Definitely a good stand in/substitute if you don’t have a pair.

I think that bleeding is only on the l&fs, and I almost think it was done intentionally, so they’d have that aged/faded look quicker.
 
Nike customer service used to be so much better… I guess we can blame it all on greedy peeps calling and getting % off over dumb minimal things.

I placed the order on snkrs for the hoodie. Seemed it took forever to ship, and show any progress. Whatever, I’m patient. Get an email yesterday

“Unfortunately, the carrier couldn’t deliver your order to the address on file, so it’s being returned to our warehouse. We know you were excited for your new gear, and we were excited to get it to you. Don’t worry, you’ll receive a full refund once it’s been processed so you can try again.”


according to UPS tracking, label was damaged. I contact Nike, and they basically tell me I’m screwed, and I can try to contact ups to see if they can update the label. Does she not realize that only the shipper can do those type of things?! Sucks because the hoodie is sold out, and unavailable. Apparel for this drop has been stupid frustrating.

Oh well. Have a blessed Sunday y’all.

What yall do to stop bleeding on L&F btw? I haven't used mine in wet weather yet.
