Bro should've sold them. Thats what I did with my 2019 Bred 4's when they announced the reimagined pair.
Granted they turned out to be leather but still.

i rather wait and see how they execute each reimagined pair before deciding. Imagine selling Royal 1s for the suede version just because it was newer. I also got aqua 8s and wc4s DS, that i have more confidence in selling now since the new releases for those aren't Reimagined.

My only regret is that I paid retail for them. Could've waited and got them for the low.
I like them for what they are.

The ankle padding is definitely thinner. The toe box is definitely changed. Now it’s not a 1990 toe box, but it definitely looks better than the 2016’s. Let’s be real. For a leaked picture I’m actually not mad at these

Especially if you look at the left shoe in that picture. You can see the toe box is slimmer than the past. It will probably be some inconsistencies fasho

Could obviously be better but that 2016 toebox was bulbous.

So happy to see the extra black laces. HATE the look of white on these; I on't care what MJ wore...they looked awful then and now ;-).

I never get the lace thing. I have boxes of extra black and white laces and then I come here and it reads like dudes think there’s a lace shortage on the market

Laces that come with the shoe >>> any laces on the aftermarket
This, I can’t get with alternate laces, only the pair(s) that came with the shoe. Always been that way, not sure why, I don’t knock anyone who does though. I will say I’ve tried it a few times and always end up quickly switching back. Hell, even the shoes that bring multiple lace options, I usually stick with whatever is already on the shoe

lol the plain laces they ship with are available any number of places and you couldn’t tell the difference with them in front of you. Not to mention all the pairs that do come with multiple white and black plain laces.
Def agree some of those aftermarket designed laces are trash but that’s not what we’re talking about with basic white laces

Those joints are obvious fakes. Nike doesn’t provide laces in plastic bags anymore. They all come in cardboard boxes now. With that being said, if the authentic joints look like those, then the new shape looks promising.

I don’t mind lace swaps, until peeps try to get “creative”.
Keep it simple, unless it’s something that comes with the shoe.
Anyway, with current pics, I’m in. It’s in their hands to screw it up.

Agreed, not a big deal. I would buy black if I need to. Just an extra step/effort that I'd be happy not to bother with. Knowing Nike they won't include black...oh well.

Pics look to have a bag attached with what looks to be black laces. If so, hopefully plain black, and not with reflective speckles or some dumb ****.
