You don’t know me very well LOL
I don’t care if they’re an exact perfect copy of the OG or ‘99s, if they switch to regular leather.
If they were something like the mesh or whatever it was Starfish women’s pair from not too long ago, that might be a different story.

These aren't reimagined OG black and red 4s; they're just a retro+ colorway like the alternate motorsport but with red. Now if they come up with a Tinker sketch or OG sample that looked like these, then maybe the story can stick.

Isn’t that what these royal blue 1s are with the new materials? They are beginning to try shoe horning these models into things they aren’t. The Chicagos and cements made sense from a story telling standpoint but now they’re just making retro + products.
They might as well officially call the patent black and red 1s “reimagined” too.

I don’t ever remember seeing them pushed like the L&Fs and cement 3s but I had 0 interest in them so you could be right.

If these come with the SB 4 shape y’all coppin and so am i. I loved the Motorsports. If they aren’t going with the aged look I’ll be curious to see how they package them.

If Jordan can get leather to look like this….I’ll be hyped lol.

It makes sense if the white/grey lines are added as an aging effect for these reimagined IV.

The type of leather is going to make or break this sneaker imo.

Its year 20"23".
To honor the great man and his number, they should release every 1st colorway of every Air Jordan 1 through 23 this year.
P PremioBinSoleFlyUnion ya' feel me?

A super flat black leather like the OG pic above might work. They’re still going to look odd though. I had so much hope for these but it’s not looking good so far.

I thought about passing on reimagineds 3s but got them anyway
I’m holding tight and never letting go baby.

Four pairs. I’d beat a new one into ground as soon as the first falls off my feet

Agree with this too. Oreo rich tumbled leather would be nice but not on the bred. So is Nike going to drop a premium suede-like leather? Their history with black nubuck is so terrible that it’s really hard to imagine them not messing this up.

It will be just like the Black Cement 3 leather from 2018. That’s the Reimagined part

If anyone had an OG 4-7, they know the nubuck from that period was amazing, even when it wore down. Maybe there’s some mid-90’s Nike stuff that had the same nubuck but by the time the 99-00 retros came around it wasn’t the same material at all and has only become worse over time. Sure, the 19’s were marginally better but nothing to even talk about. There’s never been a black nubuck retro that would ever wear remotely similar to the OG’s IMO. If there is I definitely missed it. The last great nubuck Air Jordan is the Charcoal VII.

It was actually durabuck and that company went out of business in the 90s. It’s a plastic coated synthetic suede.
