85 lows have a trash swoosh as well.
2015-2016 OG lows had the best swoosh.

You’re good with that trash swoosh on the 85s?
This is what they should look like, not the trash they are putting out under the guise of “85 lows”

I wouldn’t say trash.
Trash is the current OG low swoosh.
85s swoosh is borderline.
I do agree that 2015-16 swoosh is supreme though.

The build quality and such on the 85 is far better than any other low, even the 2015-2016. Having a closer midsole/outsole plus better materials proves that.
Problem is the price @ $160. Also yes the swoosh isn’t perfect but I’ll take the 85 low all day over the OG low and garbage puffy tongue low. Those serve no purpose to me at all.

The 85 lows have a terrible swoosh, it’s worse than the garbage quality 2015-2016 OG lows.
How does that even happen?

Compared to the 2015-2016 swoosh it is absolutely trash.
I swear how is it possible that people making those replica 85s get this right but Nike/JB with their billions of dollars somehow make it worse than they did in 2015-2016?

Are we looking at the same pic bro?
Swoosh is 100x’s better than the OG low swoosh.
If the 85 swoosh is trash, what do you classify the Og low swoosh?

What BS? You claimed nubuck and it’s a leather swoosh.
you can overlay an 85 and 85 low retro and they’re almost identical. That guy always has absurd takes

Stop using alternative facts. Just because you’re dumb enough to believe this doesn’t mean it is the truth. Look at how much skinnier and pointed the OG swoosh is on the ones released in 1985.

I don't know why you go out of your way to post the most ridiculous and easily refuted things. You realize it takes about 30 seconds to overlay two images in Photoshop right? You couldn't possibly be that ignorant.Stop using alternative facts. Just because you’re dumb enough to believe this doesn’t mean it is the truth.

The only thing making that OG swoosh thinner is the metallic leather material that has fallen off. Can't make this stuff up. I'm done addressing you though, you're always wrong.

It’s not the best no, but the overall shoe period is better than every other Low. The shape, midsole and such on the 2015-2016 was no bueno, the swoosh was better.
How does that happen? People that were there in 2015 and such are now gone. There isn’t a ton of passion in all their products. Details are being missed, we get a proper midsole and better materials…but still a smaller swoosh.
There’s no convincing me the OG low is better than the 85 Low still. Superior build, comfort and quality. Like I said…the price just sucks.

OG low build/swoosh is a joke. That whole model should be trashed. It’s the worst (other than the fat tongue low…those are abysmal…)

85 lows can be had at much lower than 160

Here is further evidence on the neutral grey lows regarding the swoosh-these were released in 1985:I don't know why you go out of your way to post the most ridiculous and easily refuted things.

You want to post actual evidence to refute this? We’ll wait.

It’s so minor…overlay the OG low on that and I’ll be crying laughing. I refused to buy the OG lows because of that and the crap comfort and midsole.I don't know why you go out of your way to post the most ridiculous and easily refuted things.

There was never anything OG about the Hi tops or lows. They’re just so bad. 85 build for me or bust. The one exception is the lost and found. That’s it.

I think I misread what you meant about the OG, as I was referencing the actual OG.

True. I have multiples of each well under retail. Love em. Wearing them as we speak.
