Chuuuuurrrrccchhhhhh!!!!
 
Not gonna front, when I saw the sample pics of these a few months back (with the Killroys), I thought that were Buns McGhee...

Granted, that sample pic was a crappy picture. But after seeing this pic...thekid is down. I can understand if you don't like contrast stitching, why these would not be appealing to you. I don't have that problem. And for those that say they look fake...Ok, but so did the Cavs IV's and JB actually did a good job with those.

Truth of the matter is, come release date, there will be more than a few switch-siders.


And yall know DAMN WELL that it's only a matter of time before the snap-back wearing, skinny-jeans sagging cornball generation comes and calls them "SpaceJam IX's"


Peace.

I was wondering the same thing...I don't know what product would be best to color the contrast stitching without messing up the nubuck/leather?I may get these just to attempt MY first customs. I was gonna get another pair of olives to have someone else paint for me... But that blue jumpman/ logos and white bottom would look so much better

That'd be nice, I haven't been able to buy a pair of Jordans on clearance since the Cardinal XII's
 
I actually think these are not as bag as some are making them out to be. Still not a big fan of 9's but would cop if I seen a clearance tag on them...
 
These and the new "french blues" are AWFUL. but both will sellout smh ... praying the Olives don't look like the first pics posted a few weeks back.

I feel the same way.

I wish they killed that stitching and left the eyelets BLACK.  

Thats what I would of loved to see.

Still gonna cop come RD!
 
Im not really a big fan of 9s, the greys are alright, but I think by the time they release Ill be passing on these.

The colorway isn't as bad as I first thought, contrast stitching is just too much.
