actually quick question, while i never owned the OGs i did own the retros from 2003-2004. Is it just me or isn't the toe box supposed to be mesh and the entire heel a rugged/hard suede or whatever that material was. Because thats what I loved about my past pair of the "Duke" Air Raids from years back. The mesh toe box never creased so they stayed looking fresh even after balling in them and that rough/rugged heel wasn't easily cuffed, scraped or damaged. I was just about to coop this years Duke color way till I noticed to my surprise the toe box is durabuck/nubuck and the heel is fitted with that same cheap shiny *** leather featured on the 2011 Black Cement 3s that'll crease in the box. So I'm on the fence right now. Am I right about the material change though?
That's what I was about to say. Have never seen the OG Raids w/ Mesh Toe. Don't know about 03 Retro, but highly doubt that there was an one w/ Mesh Toe-Box. BTW, somehow thought I prefer the Durabuck type of heel when I checked Peace Raid (uses Durabuck type) & White/Black/Red (uses Tumbled leather) at the storefront the other day tho.No OG Raid had a mesh toe box. They all had nubuck/durabuck toes. All mesh on OG Raid 1's was on the sides. The only difference between the OG Royals and the 2014's is the switch from durabuck to tumbled leather on the heel. BTW, I somehow thought I like Durabuck type of heel over tumbled leather when I saw Peace Raid &

Ive been wondering the same about the Raid 2's, I mean they had to have crossed Nike's mind since they released the Peace colorway...
Thats right, I forgot about that... They retro a classic shoe after 20 years, and make 3 pairs total smh...They've more than crossed their minds. The Para Normans were a Raid 2. Not sure why they won't just do them properly.

I was wondering why they never went through with those...They've more than crossed their minds. The Para Normans were a Raid 2. Not sure why they won't just do them properly.
