I know we cant expect much quality wise from JB nowadays. My main concern was the ash would throw off the color of the metallics. As long as it looks dark and the ashing is manageable, Im content. I destroyed my 06s and I needed these man lolOriginally Posted by ninjahood

it is nubuck.
it's funny people keep calling it ashy cuz i always thought the durabuck is kinda ashy. it seems charcoal instead of black and fades more and more over time.
i don't know, it's whatever, i'm pretty happy with this material. it's nice and buttery, doesn't seem like it will crease. it's funny, JB comes with a new material they consider an upgrade, that doesn't crease, on a shoe like the 5's which is notorious for creasing, and people hate it.

This shoe has a very rich suede on it so it is an upgrade to the previous releases IMO.

Still wish it was nubuck. Still don't like the fact the 3m tongue is little to non-existent. If u thought the 3m was bad on the '07s, it's worse on these imo. I will pick these up Saturday on discount.
