What's everyone doing for the laces on these? White doesn't look good to me, there's plenty of white on the shoe already so I've been doing black or red, can't really decide on one over the other though.

I never lace swap OG colorways... It just doesn't seem right to do... Its a must to keep the OGs looking OG...

Don't try to be cute.

most probably weren’t born when these first released but swapping laces was not uncommon. I think someone posted in here a swap to black laces that looked decent.

The V is one of the Jordan silhouettes where I think the stock laces just look better and no swap is needed. Ultimately it's up to you, they're your shoes so do as you wish. I've seen some people wearing them with red or black laces.

This colorway was the very first pair of OG Jordan’s I had so this was a must for me.Just loved them instantly. The air bubble and clear bottoms did it for me. Struck out on release day. My friend was able to grab a second pair and sold them to me for retail. Finally got to set up a drop off and they’re home!!!!

I was looking for a pair of shorts for a trip in downtown Brooklyn, wander into the Flight 23 store, and end up with these, after 10 minutes.

Just pulled mine out for the first time since release day. Tried one shoe on when I first got them on release day, tie toeing around for about 30 seconds then put them back in the box. Pulled them out today and didn’t realize I had instacreased them on RD. Leather is super soft. Guess they’re officially mine now.

IMO these have that new AF1 shine, but 10-15 wears in and they look dull and dingy. I guess for me these are reserved for indoor events only.

How do these fit? Thanks.

MrOsato · Jun 29, 2020

TTS, by my standards.

Theyre open? I felt like I saw an email about certain FTL's doing curbside but I didn't know anyone was legit open including FTL's.

Oh they definitely are. The only reason I even went into the Flight store, was because the Foot Locker down the block had a line to get in.

Damn does not sound fun. Im sure they might've been doing curbside pick up though so probably not terrible. But I'm not trying to be on anyones line lol. I know they got to have back stock though. They prob only putting out the stuff with no resale value.

Keeping I's and anything hyped.
