I'm bulking around on-campus and hoping for the Kobe sighting (he's in-town), and needed to replace my badge. I go into the MJ Building to look at the stuff on-display. Sorry about the iPhone pix, but looking at these OG's you can tell the superior materials that were used. The tumbled leather on those X's look bulletproof and the leather on those I's looks really thick and durable. Comparing it today's retro's, you can see where quality has gone down. I'm never one to complain but all of my OG's are long gone and haven't had any recent purchases to compare w/ an OG. But just visually, the materials used in the past kills what we have now.
