Jordan 1 OG High Black/Gum - Dec. 6, 2014

[kintan]

 
my simple expectation

same material all black upper, white midsole, gum/gold NA,  black default laces (white extra laces)

my reality

THIS x 100.

I always knew JB had a way of ****ing up simple colorways. This is an example of 'em

I'll cop a pair. Can't wait to read all the "they grew on me posts" come close to RD.

I actually like that they did something a little out of the norm with the black midsole.

Not a fan of whatever is going on with the side panels and toe box from these pictures though, but I'll wait until I can make out whatever the hell that actually is before I judge it.

Co-sign on the gum color though, they damn near made it gold here.

once better pictures come out....


oh how opinions will change. I like the black midsole and I was hoping they actually did that.

 

[citycity]

oh no.. how difficult is it to release a black/gum 1 right??

nike air jordan 1 x sharpie collabo.. midsole rubs off to reveal hyperpunch..

I really don't wanna pass judgement before I see better pics, but these look like a pass right now. That white midsole render up there is EXACTLY how they should've released. Would've doubled up easily.

JB being JB by retroing a retro+ cw instead of an OG cw.
edit-I thought these were the Lasers lol

 

[ballyeaz]

that gum bottom looks like cardboard jesus. very disappointing. unfortunately people would still go crazy on these because they're OG's 

ps. if a pair of shoes need to "grow on you" to like them, don't buy them. only exception is if you have a lot of money or the shoes are on sale.

I actually use this philosophy as well.

Wish the whole midsole was gum bottom

These are only usefu to do a tongue swap and make the Blk/Gld OG 1s exactly like the OGs (minus the sole). Aside from that, pretty weak.
