NIKE Air Jordan IV OG White Fire Red: Black Friday 2020: Nov. 28th

So I tried my pair on yesterday for the 1st time since i’ve owned them.. WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED!! The left shoe is smashing my pinky toe so much idk if I can wear them. The left shoe feels like it’s a size smaller in the toe. I’ve got a couple other pairs of 4s that all fit fine in my size (with some light pinky toe rubbing on the 2019 breds) 😡

I really don’t want to come off of these because they’re one of my favorites. I thought about wearing them unlaced and see if they’re okay after some break in. If I get an 11.5 I think they’ll be a little too long. 🤷‍♂️
4’s have always been snug to me. It’s the only model where I don’t go tts. I’m an 11 but always buy 4’s in 11.5.

It’s why I had to sell my pair. These damn things were crushing my foot.
 
I sent back the Bred 2019 because of the Pinkie toe, but the FR are perfect. I wore them yesterday. I have worn them ton of times.

For MJO23DAN some performance shoes are perfect TTS but some are totally wrong.
PG4, Kyrie5, 6, 7 were totally missed for sizing while PG 5 are perfect.
IE Bred sizing is also missed but this is another story.

TROOP gear was so tough back then.

I know someone peeped that wrinkly *** tongue on the FR 4s. Pretty sure it’s a gs pair

That’s what IV tongues were like, even on the men’s pairs to a good degree.

I honestly much preferred the old Footlocker store style and atmosphere. The hoop, the scoreboard, etc.
Sure, it was kinda corny but it did a good job of making a trip to FTL feel all about sports/athletics as well as the shoes. Now I walk into one, it feels like The Gap crossed with a nightclub, or something :lol:

Maaaan, I still got a navy/red suede and velvet Troop X LL Cool J track suit that I got at Value City back in the day. I've held onto that thing almost as long as anything in my collection. I used to bust it out for 80's theme parties. :rofl:

EDIT: Not mine, but found pics of the exact one I have...

So dope let me run that jacket for the weekend!
Throw on the Fire Reds and even pull the Gucci bucket out on em they not ready lol.
80s/90s fashion will likely never die for me, all these years still have a soft spot for it probably because i missed out on so much of it as as a youth.

I wore the jacket all the time through high school. The pants, not so much. I'm with you though. So much from that era holds a special place in my heart. Starter jerseys and jackets, especially.
