If you have some sort of anti toe box creasing product in your shoes this will happen. The shoe has to give somewhere. The only way to prevent any creasing is by not wearing your shoes. Period. As far as reversing the effect, the wet towel and iron method works wonders on 1s. But test on small...
The leather looks great on the black toes but it is on the thin side when compared to the 1994s and the 2001s
1994 on the left
2001 on the right.
It's still a great nice hi cut retro. I'm very happy with them.
My pair finally came in from Eastbay. All in all the quality of the leather is way better than I thought they would be from what I read in here. I don't know if some guys are just getting bad pairs. But I own plenty of 1s and the leather on the black toes is pretty good. Here are some quick pics...
My girlfriend started a stencil for me on an old record. Just needs Nike air added and the wings logo. Its a three part stencil. I'm going to use it to make the rest of the original color 1s. Apologies for the crappy Iphone pic.

Oh you can find them. The problem is the stupid prices that people are asking for them. I sold mine to find a pair of 2001s. A much better retro of the Black Red 1s.
I'm dead serious man. I was able to get two pairs from the citadel outlets in southern California on the very first day they released. A Tuesday.
As soon as I had them in my hands I didn't want them. My brother kept one pair I sold the other. The quality control on them was all over the place...
I really lucked out on Eastbay with this release. I had three laptops running with my girl and my brother. My girl is the only one that got through. I love 1s. Its one of the
few Jordan models that you can wear for years and years later. Can't wait to add them to these.
2001, 2001, AJKO...
I got through with no bot. I used the ole me, my girlfriend, brother, three laptops with three different sites trick. My girl got through on eastbay. Waiting for the confirm email.
