Think you took this to a whole new level on what I was saying .. but it’s niketalk so I get it
I see you losers in Cali with your Tesla cars.Old people just hate anything different and new.
I’m happy as a clam babyNever will be.

I’m in Florida and can just admit when I’m old, but the QC thing is and always will be laughable as we never cared as kids/teenagers and just enjoyed having themI see you losers in Cali with your Tesla cars.

Well I’m old and assumed we were all older than the avg Nike/JB consumer. If you knit pick QC and complain a good amount, you must be old(er). If not, you got an old soul lol these are beautiful the more I see picsdid you just call us... old?
I agree. Unless they are REALLY jacked up, then it’s just laughable.I’m in Florida and can just admit when I’m old, but the QC thing is and always will be laughable as we never cared as kids/teenagers and just enjoyed having them
You’re still that way, even in your size 14/15 babyWhen I was a kid I was just so damn thankful and appreciative to have a pair, was truly over the moon.
QC is better now more than likely, just like cars and most things.
If it’s possible, take a picture. If not, all good.Came pre-creased like someone put a weight on the left toebox.
Hey good sir was that by chance the one you and I spoke about? My Hibbett pair finally came in and they’re nearly flawless to my eye, I really need another pairSemi dud just came in from footlocker. Will be going back 2/2 footlocker returns
What's even worse is that the pamphlet is missing as well SMH.That’s some BS and sucks. But how do they look otherwise? If that happened to me I’d be epically p’od and I’d be on here saying so. But once that wave of anger subsides, if you’re going to wear them (like I am shortly with my first pair) and it’s a good pair otherwise, it objectively won’t even matter after just one outdoor wear. But believe me, I absolutely get it. And if you were not planning to wear them any time soon, I get it even more.
Materials may have been better but QC ? Nah, got my first pair of J’s in late ’91 and damn near every pair I’ve owned has had at least 1 issue or flaw. Perfect OG’s are myth.![]()
Boy I'd hate to tell you Nike themselves proved that is a lie this year. A LOT of their shoes this year have had TERRIBLE QC. And its been proven that they use cheaper grades of leather while stating the materials are "closer to OG i.e., Georgetown 1s when its the same leather as a cheap AF1"
I wasn't alive back then but i'm sure the people who had the OGs know the leather and QC was MUCH better than now, even if we only have pictures and some videos to compare. There's a reason OGs are high collectibles and not recent retros.
Old person checking in. BTW my snkrs pair came and is goin back. Came pre-creased like someone put a weight on the left toebox. My daughter also said the box was already open when it arrived. Thanks Fedex !
