i remember the suede on the OGs being “hairy” and rough. They weren’t smooth or soft at all.
this retro is definitely a pick up but depending on feel i might have buyer’s remorse/return. We’ll see come May

Making sure I get a pair. Worst comes to worst, if the suede is too light then Angelus red suede dye is an option. I've seen it used to help restore the color on beat pairs of the OG raging bulls. We'll see though

what more do you want man? Lol. Those recent IG pics are from a stockroom somewhere so I’d say it’s extremely likely that is a real or authentic pair. Also, the boxes on the floor is how Nike ships to retail partners. 1+1 =2 my friend

I just wish all the "looks awful" translated into shoe availability. But these days forget it.

I can't think of any release which was cheaper pre-release than right after the online orders land.

All I'll say is the reverse bred 12s looked kinda like this in photos and once I got them in hand, they are a much richer red.

See guys, those pics ^^ DO NOT look like the in-hand pics. The in hands are considerably lighter, like a reddish orangy that we talked about. Nonetheless still a cop for me but disappointed for sure

I'm doubling off rip (hopefully), but I REALLY wish these had the OG "23" font.

Check out a few YouTube reviews and to me they look good. Way better then that ashey stockroom pic that first surfaced. Can never tell with pics cause of lighting and such but from the videos they look on point and I'm hearing good quality in the reviews so we'll see. I just need them to be 3x the unc 1 stock cause I'm taking too many Ls
