shape is looking like a banana just like the white red pair that retro
 
Let's get some better pics going before we judge them.

The angle of the shoe and the way the laces are choked up, don't compliment the shoe at all.

I do, and I'm telling you the side profile shape is the same. I'm looking at my pairs side by side this very moment. Not to mention I just posted a link filled with comparison pics. The only real differences were the tongue and padding.

I don't even think the 2009's had padding did they?  They were flatter than Kesha's !!$.

But judging from those sample pics, the tongues are looking alright. 
 
Lol yea that padding was pathetic. Overall, I loved the 09 retro though. I just wish they would fix the tongue and stop sewing the back material over top of the leather on the tongue. They've basically done that with every Jordan retro since 2004. I think it's a much cleaner look when Jordan's don't have the padding sticking up higher. It is especially annoying when it's two different colors, like on the 2009 nubucks.

I realllllllllly hate it on 13s because it tends to look all jagged and what not.


side note: I picked up a pair of worn once 03 nubucks on ebay for $115 shipped about a month ago :-)

I ran mine to the ground, and been trying to look for a pair (2003) since.  
Still have the hat laying around somewhere, sold the sweater cuz it was too big.
