Off-White x Air Jordan Thread - Rest In Peace Virgil Abloh

You know your guy is just here to joke around a lot and poke around for thots/not really fan of posting my opinions because unlike other folks, i dont have an a-hole...



But whomever is at the helm of the Off-White division at Nike needs to jump off a cliff or situate their bed on some train tracks and wait for something cool to happen.



Since the man passed, there's not been one singular release worth acquiring... even a second look.



It's like the team has gone full Radio on their designs.



Wouldn't be surprised if it were a hoard of lezbeans and neo-feminazis at the drawing board and signing off on these recent shoe designs like they're hype. I understand Nike wants to pander and showcase how inclusive they are... but everything has been uber tacky and efforts contrived as hell, even if you can call it "effort" (radical is fine, but there's nothing remotely cool about them; it's too whacky for lack of a gooder term). What they've done was commission a bunch of choads and choadettes who have NO IDEA/how to continue Virgil's legacy appropriately and to do it with finesse/suaveness (but you can't replicate the man and i get it - he was a one off, but why they couldn't piggy back off his influence is beyond me. It wasn't broken but yet they tried to fix/force it and regressed).




Virgil must not only be rolling in his grave, but he's also doing cartwheels and windmills out of sheer frustration.



Cuz if he were around, bet that the black cement 4's would have come to release fruition and we'd get some really swaggy designs/releases. Off White has so much at their disposal and can create some timeless gems/collabos that would be at the pinnacle of Nike street/athleisure wear
and yet they throw it away on some banshee *** releases.

Uhhh I hesitate to respond to you (unless this is parody and I’m not getting it??) but the Nike off-white shoes that have released this year all had Virgil involved before he died, dude. Blazer lows, AF1 highs, AF1 lows, he had design input on all of them. Even the upcoming shoe was a completely original design by Virgil. It takes like 18 months for a shoe to hit retail, so anything that the caretakers of the brand are working on hasn’t even seen the light of day yet.

This post is goddamn awfu for the reasons stated by others. :lol:
 
Yea those bred 4s easily top 3 if released

Virgil did those perfectly

Wonder how he would have did a 3, 6, 10, 11 and 14

6 is his fav model if im not mistaken so i know he has drafts of off white 6’s somewhere on this planet
 
They’ve been let it be know we’re not getting Off White Bred 4s or any of the F&F Travis Scott 4s. Idk why everyone on Social Media was trying to hype them yesterday when his wife wore them for that article, she always wears them.
 
Whole reason why I passed on the sails for 1k when I had the chance. Now my size going for 1.5k. It’s a no brainer for me if they ever release those bred 4’s. I’d cop resell once I strike out
And, it was rumored to rerelease in “men’s” sizing, if I’m not mistaken? That’s why i never tried to cop in the secondary market.
