I can't with these people taking the toggle out of the clear casing and sticking them on the bottom laces. I just can't.

I take them both off...On my black/metallics from '16 all of them end up flipping over when I tie them. I have them on my drawer.I can't with these people taking the toggle out of the clear casing and sticking them on the bottom laces. I just can't.

Terrible.

Really? I've never once had that problem with any AJ5 I've ever owned. The clear part usually contours to the tongue and keeps it in place.

It just got to be a pain in the *** tying them correctly and everything. It was like that with the first retro 20 years ago of them. They just annoyed me. Always did this stupid flip over.

Toe on these looks much better than previous retros.. wait til we’ve got these in hand and post some comparison pics with 2016s, the toe is very noticeably different/better.

Also it’s hard to compare the toe to the OGs because the toe varied A LOT on the OG pairs between the different colorways.. some were very very slim at the end, some weren’t..

I don’t care, I just want a pair. I can’t wait for Jordan Brand to get them right anymore. At least the leather is good according to Nightwing.

Haha nope, I haven’t been anywhere in three weeks except to buy food. I’m with you on these. Just gonna take a pair and they’ll be what they are. Some pictures and vids like Nightwing’s make them look reasonably ok. Then others make them look totally meh to me. If anything, I’m definitely intrigued to see how I feel about these once they finally release. Whenever the hell that will actually be.I don’t care, I just want a pair.

As soon as DMP’s are out of the way, these things will soon follow. Nightwing’s video got me really jazzed for these. I want to wear them right away like you did your navy snakeskin’s. lol

I’m definitely excited to just have a pair on my feet again after 30 years, but I kind of have a feeling I’m going to be underwhelmed. Hope we’re pleasantly surprised. Either way, those 34 lows will have me happy no matter what LOL
