That boot looking toebox from prior retros is so evident next to these similar to pre-recraft am90s

everything up to this point just throw em in the trash

 

[amarano]

anyone know if the extra pair of white laces i have with a pair of black toe jordan 1s will fit the 2s?

are they the same length?

“It’s all in the imagination”

 

[amarano]

arite so these are the white laces that came with jordan 1s…grabbed them from my parents quick didn’t have time to check all pairs

they’re a little longer that the laces that come with jordan 2s.

i can’t believe i’m doing this because this was blasphemy to do to jordan’s when i was growing up

but i like i said in my earlier post and all white look goes better with how i dress now

let me know what you guys think.

i personally think these are the best lace swap i’ve ever seen on an OG jordan it just flows perfectly.

I love the white laces , I loved the way they looked on MJ when he had white laces in

Couldn’t agree more. The black laces have always made the shoes look clunky or something to me. Last night I did the same thing as you, but I used the slightly off-white laces that came with my Lost and Founds. I like the look even better than pure white laces, it just mutes it from all being bright white across the entire upper but also isn’t really obvious that it’s a different color.

 

[nonstopdahitman]

Always fw white laces on these

 

[vegetaray123]

Meh…I’ll flow with the white laces when the White / Red pair drops…

 

[bcummings2]

Pair from SNKRS just arrived. App still says preparing shipment. PayPal payment still pending too ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

[rbk93]

Putting white laces just confirms to me why the Homes is the better CW.

 

[walkingBred]

Same. Underwhelming in hand

I’ll probably keep them but coulda been way better with even average materials

Absolutely. Still a fire retro tho. I'm still just glad they released these at all. They always leave room for something better down the line tho. Hopefully quality will pick up next release. And hopefully we won't have to wait as long for it to come around again.

What socks are you guys wearing with 2s? I wore the union 2s and it just mashed up the back of my heel on both feet and I was wearing long socks

 

[theillegalalien]

Pair made it to my door step yesterday evening. Straight to feet today. Went TTS SZ11. They fit perfectly. Won't lie ...I'm not a huge 2 fan, but theses are fire.

 

[KanyIZZY]

Got the good grain.

I wanted a pair like this so bad.. joints are

 

[hydeous]

They look cleaner with white laces. But black is the more iconic look for the 2s.

Thesell do well for weightlifting session like squats and deadlifts like the 1s.

 

[wombat]

Overall these Chicago 2’s are better than the Lost and Found 1’s

 

[AllGrails]

My OW2s are on ice. They are out of the box and I see the em every day on my dresser but ds. Almost broke them out this week. Now I got these.

Idk. Are these comfortable? The OW 2s are TANKS!

I didnt get the lnf1s sincw i rwfused to pay for resell om those, but judging from the material and design, id say the 1s are executed better. These are just for nostalgic and historic purposes

But i agree, it gave a great shopping experience than the 1s, since i manage to pick these up online easily. Plus they still available in store as well.

Yeah I definitely prefer these. I already had Chicago 1s. I didn’t have these anymore and they did these pretty well finally. Already been there done that with the 1s. Needed these more.

My pair arrived just minutes ago. They are flawless. Cardinal leather is a little nicer. But, I've wanted these for a long time so I'm happy with the pair I received. Can't believe the 14s have been on ice for 9 years lol. These will be in my summertime rotation

Yikes, those toes on the old pair.

 

[KanyIZZY]

White laces are clean but it's gotta be black. for me lol.

 

[danewera]

First pair arrived from Feature…such a beautiful retro. My only complaint is the material on the tongue but I’m just happy to finally wear a fresh pair of Chicago 2s again.

Glad you said it. I HATE this trend of pre-aged shoes. If people want shoes that look worn, wear them…
