Air Jordan 1 HIGH ‘85 "Neutral Grey" - Early 2021

[JPS]

Mochas are clean but the materials are cheap. It feels flimsy in hand. At first, I was like whatever, they’ll break in with wear, and soften a bit. However, after holding next to the ‘85, they had to go. The ‘85 has redefined what I will accept from a sneaker, especially from 1s. If the materials and construction aren’t on point, at least on the majority of the shoe, I won’t cop.

guess youre only purchasing NB from now on. You eliminated 99.9% of Nike World

99.9% is a confirmed stretch

Obviously, I am referring to sneaker quality in relation to Nike/Jordan Brand. Lol

You have never felt an 85 in hand. Come back to me when you get a pair... which you eventually will.

I will do, sir. They need to drop a really great OG colorway first.

this was my very first impression of them. I realized I've had them out of the box maybe 10 mins since copping. meanwhile I haven't been able to put NGs away yet

but Mochas still too nice of a CW to part with. it's a shame they didn't do them any better

I don’t got time for Only “nice colorways.” They have to be nice AND of high quality (in relation to other Nike/JB sneakers).

^not mad at that

I’m so happy right now. A local sneaker store just open and I got these for retail! These are why the 6s are my favorite Jordan.
