A Ma Maniere AJ4

More, better, pics of these. Look better, but I’m still not super into the monotone-ness or the color. The color looks more purple here, which is better IMO, but not totally my jam still.

Most accurate so far. It's not the deep burgundy/purple like some have looked in inside lights. It's got some grey tones to it.
 
I think the thing I appreciate about the AMM approach to collabs Is that they favor wearability and modern aesthetic over staying true to the original design language of the original silhouettes.

Omitting elephant print from a 3 arguably makes it much less of a 3, but I prefer the solid border on the AMM 3. It just goes with more of todays outfits and is less costumey.

My favorite Jordan is the 4 because that the first pair that I really wanted as a kid (my mom thought I’d lost my mind asking for a shoe that was twice what she normally spent). Part of my love of the 4 is the high contrast color blocking of that era as well as the graphic look of the netting and wings.

But, to be fair, those elements are not part of the clothes I wear today. Playing them down with a monochrome color scheme makes these much more wearable as a shoe and not as a clear “retro” look if that makes sense.

At first I was underwhelmed by the color choices, but I’m starting to see it as being more in line with what he offers at the boutique.
 
wtf is that silver dot? like why is there a random piercing on the shoe?
 
All the other AMM Jordans have come with an extra set of laces so far so I expect the same for these.
Already know the box is going to be fire :nthat:
 
Im in for these. Love 4s and all the AMM collabs have been such good quality. If I can’t hit for retail, I’ve been sitting on a second pair of AMM3s waiting for the right trade.
 


Before anyone tries to give flak about this redundant post, I did check before I tried to post this and it was clear, but perhaps my computer or browser or this site or the person above me posted it in a magnified form caused a long delay. When this one was finally posted, I noticed the magnified form suddenly appeared.
