It is though. It's the same nylon material as the celtics and black/golds.It shouldn't since its not parachute like the CDP 1.

nah engineer it's different. GrapeApe pointed it out to me. The parachute material on the cdp and banned 1s is like the soft OG material used in '85 by Nike. The material on the 2013s is a stiffer nylon.It is though. It's the same nylon material as the celtics and black/golds.
You're right, it's not the exact same material but it's a lot closer than the sample version (which had the same material as the royals/knicks). I wouldn't assume that it won't yellow.nah engineer it's different. GrapeApe pointed it out to me. The parachute material on the cdp and banned 1s is like the soft OG material used in '85 by Nike.

I honestly didn't even think of yellowing until you just brought it up. Guess it was in the back of my mind since the other 2013 tongues weren't white. God I hope it won't ..

I have a DS pair of 94 Chicagos that still look pretty good. The tongue is slightly yellow but not enough to make a huge difference. So hopefully it won't be too bad. I honestly don't think the black/golds will ever really look that bad. The gold color is already there (although everyone calls it piss when it happens to icy soles). So it might just get darker but probably won't ever kill the look of the shoe like it would on a pair of 5s or concords etc.I honestly didn't even think of yellowing until you just brought it up.

Kind of like the black/gold 1s from April have a translucent glitter sole... I wonder what that'll look like in a few years
Would be nice if we got a real high top unc 1 nike air treatment this yearThe black and red 1's will be a great way to end the year. I wonder what we'll see between the shadows and the black/red 1's. Maybe the white and royal 1's but if we could just get 1 of the metallic series 1's with OG treatment I would probably explode of joy and anticipation
Me too. I'm hoping for at least one more OG surprise this year.The black and red 1's will be a great way to end the year. I wonder what we'll see between the shadows and the black/red 1's.

Where's "the store"? lol. You in the States or overseas?Just bought mine from the store and they even threw in a pair of nike socks. I really like this colorway!

Exactly, it doesn't make sense that you'd neglect this one particular OG colorway when the differences are the color of the leather on the toe cap. I know that's been mentioned before, but it was so glaring when looking at the back of the shoe and in those latest photos, because the back of the shoes are identical (minus the shiny, crappy leather and Jumpman on the Chicago's).I think he's saying it doesn't make sense that they could do these right and yet the chicagos were such a dissapointment. I can't understand that either.It actually makes perfect sense. NA editions of the 1's this year are at a premium price over their AJ branded counterparts such as the "Chiacgo's". It makes perfect sense that they use slightly different materials to "justify" the price difference as well as physical branding on the shoe as well..just my thoughts.
6 years ago as in a midtop.When was the last time these released? I seen some OG cat wearing them in Catalina Island 3 weeks ago. These are nice
So who thinks that next year or sometime this year they will release the chicagos again with the Nike Air treatment just to make a quick buck? and who (the people who scooped the Chicagos w/o the NA treatment) will cop them?
