They're literally icy......
 
Sup AJ1 fam, can anyone do me a solid and legit check these Royal Toe High’s?

 
Yeah, the more I see these the uglier they get. That icy/glitter treatment looks awful. JB is really gonna give us a historical narrative to sell a fk’d version of Chicago 1s that come pre-glittered. Also, the more milky looking translucent outsole looks bad too IMO. And they’re gonna be soooo hyped it’s not even going to be funny.

Let me chime in on the J. Balvins.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is the First Collab for a Latino artist to officially partner up with Jordan Brand.

He performed in these at the Superbowl Halftime show with J.Lo, Shakira, and Bad Bunny.

Yes the colors are loud, and they aren't for everyone, but they mean more than just shoes for some of us Latinos.


I've seen far worse sneakers from JB.

Spanish Music is now Global, J. Balvin has been killing the airwaves for the past 5+ years.

Even if you don't speak spanish, you may have heard "Mi Gente", even Beyonce did a remix with him.

Even though I wouldn't wear these, I'm glad I managed to get a pair just to keep as a collector's item.

If I were Latino I would be just as offended by these as I am offended by the BHM 2s.

I swear they treat the Chicago's just like the White Cement 3s and Bred 1s. They just keep selling weird alternatives, instead of bringing back the OG.

I'm not against new twists, but some (most) of these are just gimmicky cash grabs, that no one asked for.

Several versions of the same colorway becomes redundant.

I’d take a pair! But my chances are 0.00%
 
Explain bots to me. How do they work, especially on SNKRS? SNKRS changes it up on me every time, either by asking for password, size, or C.C. security code. I don’t get how bots get thru this. Thanks
 
Disguised as a human, a cyborg assassin known as a Terminator (bots) travels from 2029 to 1985 to buy all retro Jordan 1s (high OGs). Sent to protect SNKRS is Captcha (doesn't really work), who divulges the coming of Skynet, an artificial intelligence system that will spark a Nike holocaust. SNKRS is targeted because Skynet knows that her unsold Js will lead the fight against them. With the virtually unstoppable Terminator bots in hot pursuit, SNKRS and CAPTCHA attempt to escape.
 
Trophy Room's 100% basura. Hype can't fix that :lol:
True, hype can’t fix them. However, we all know that the hype is going have this thread looking crazy with people fiending for them, it’s going to have all the “important” people, “influencers,” and influential media outlets calling them all types of “grails” and sht like that, and the shoe is going to be IMPOSSIBLE to obtain. That’s all JB needs, and that’s exactly what JB wants.

Here’s what I don’t understand. Marcus Jordan just took to Twitter a few days ago & stated he hasn’t even paid for the Trophy Room 1s as of yet (there supposedly limited to 12,000 pairs). StockX was suppose to have deleted all pairs from their feed. He also stated there were some shenanigans going on at the Memphis warehouse but no worries, it would be addressed.

If all that is true, how are there still pairs being sold on the aftermarket? And better question, how is it this dude has about 5 to 6 of them...... already posing with them on IG? 😳🤔

They stole more pairs than they originally thought....that’s what I’ve heard

This guy, for whatever reasons (maybe directly seeded from someone, maybe he gets fakes directly from somewhere (it’s not like we are able to physically handle his kicks for legitimacy)), rocks pretty much all early pairs on IG. Some type of “fashion” guy, with kicks and his “coordinated” outfits.
