Playoff 13s have no chance of being as good as these. They don't do 13s nearly as well and it's as simple as that.

Copped the playoffs for my birthday which was a week or so after the release and they still had my size at footlocker. Truly good times

Really!!! This was my favorite commercial of MJs. The way he air walked with them 5s on was way too cool to see. As a kid, in my mind it looked as if he was walking up invisible stairs. Thanks for posting this video... Really took me back....

Off topic, and not tryin' to change the subject but...

I NEED these to retro already, like YESTERDAY. We probably won't get them until 2023, at the earliest. I need a bright, VIBRANT red shade like on the 2006's, too.

Is the first pic OGs? Shape looks OC, but that midsole looks like varsity red and NOT fire red....hmm...

Didn’t they retro those not to long ago?

Back in 2013.

Yeah, they're an OG pair. I'm pretty sure they've been sole swapped, and the restorer used a darker red, to give em that aged, vintage look.

They last retroed, back in 2013. So we're LONG overdue for retro. That's TRUE to the OG's.​

I like black tongues even more than the silver tongues. Double up if done right .

​

Yea these have never been retrod as far as I’m concerned. It’s way past time.

I have a love hate relationship with these. I have the 06 joints. I bought them a week early. I rocked them joints to Ice at Opryland Hotel. I ended up getting into a fist fight with a drunk dude later that night. I scuffed up the leather and put them on ice forever. The dude smacked my cousin with the N word and pushed my pregnant girlfriend. I wasn’t concerned about the sneakers, I was trying to snatch his soul and send him to the upper room.

Need a new pair of Fire Reds soon, mine (2013s) crumbled real bad

Just claim it’s an Off White sample and sell for a small fortune.

 

[rbk93]

Unless it was DS, not sure how it can crumble in such a short amount of time.

I played in them most of the time. Then when I had a proper pair of CP3s I kinda forgot about them for a bit

 

[dhtowng]

I don’t think my 2013s are even fully yellowed yet let alone crumbling.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

These run big or what? Probably could have gone down a size.

Anyway, finally Un DS’d and they are clean!!IDK what I was waiting for. I remember looking at these in footlocker and wanting them so bad as a kid. Out of my $ range then but these and 4s were THEE kicks to have even in a surfer town where I grew up. Went and shot around in them tonight getting my kid ready for the playoffs tomorrow. Will be rocking these consistently! Wish I could have run a game in them!

I noticed that too, they do run a lil a big. I'm glad these dropped during the start of the pandemic. These were probably easiest classics I've got since high school. If they dropped they would another mess of a release.

​

These are why ive yet to jump on a pair of silver tongues. Something about the black hits and red that really looks so nice.

 

[kintan]

Wait, do these run a bit bigger than the 2013's? If so I may have to size down

Could also be improper storage

Yeah, I've never seen a nine-year-old shoe fall apart like that. My 2007 black metallics basically still look wearable.

 

[HellRazor1978]

I pulled mine out yesterday and wore them for the first time in a while. Such a nice retro. I caused me to break down and cop a second pair
