Die cut marks were featured on the originals and 1999 retro. The tongue was also more padded on both versions. Not sure why some think the slim tongue on the 2019 retro is correct.
Yep. I thought we were getting the lighter shade. Surprised me when it was the darker shade because I thought those were fakes lol. I like the darker shade more anyway because it’s truer to the originals.
I don’t know. With Nikes bad QC, it doesn’t surprise me.
Not sure how I feel about this. Aged durabuck does have somewhat of a sheen to it. Hopefully that’s the look they are going for and not just straight tumbled leather.
I’ve used eBay for buying and selling since 2005. It’s pretty much my only go-to place for sneakers. Haven’t had any issues with their Authenticity Guarantee yet. Like others have mentioned, you get to see what you’re buying and can always request for more pics.
I went ahead and got a pair off eBay. Been waiting too damn long for these. Hopefully there will be a broader release in the near future. How about make these a GR so everyone that actually wants a pair can get them without hassle.
