Hey guys looking for some experts in OG 85 AJ1s that can take a look at these photos. Some concerns I have
1) Swoosh shape looks a little off, OG swooshes should curl back a bit but this swoosh kind of points straight up
2) Height difference between the right and left shoe visible from rear shot. Maybe since these were handmade there are more variances in construction?
3) Swoosh material looks a little too smooth/shiny like leather and the OG has a more plastic vinyl material that should look duller?
4) Tongue foam is missing. I know on some OG pairs the foam can disintegrate and people end up gutting the foam tongue... so its not a red flag on its own but I recall some bootleg 85s had really bad foam tongues and this pair just has the foam removed altogether
Let me know if I am just crazy and overanalyzing. Thanks in advance
