Another one off the circle back list
These and playoff 8s probably my favorite purchase of 2023. still eyeing a few sites to drop their price so I can double up on these. The fact these are still full price on some sites a year and some change later is crazy!Probably my favorite purchase of 22. One of the few retros that Nike actually got right.
Olympic OG/Sample pair on Sotheby’s…..different than what we got with this retro. I am glad the factory lacing is no longer like this though.
Maybe you’re right, but 3 pairs I distinctly remember, definitely came out the box like that were just like the pic shown of the Flight Lites. My Air Force V lows, Air Bounds and Maestro 1s were all like this. One shoe had the bar lacing, the other was as you described. None were displays. At least from what I saw. A few one-offs maybe? Someone took the time to do it, don’t know why. If I’m wrong, I’m wrong, oh well. Maybe I just assumed everything I got was like that.Factory lacing was never like that. That's shoe store display "bar" lacing and it was a giant PITA. Shoes coming laced from the factory is a fairly recent thing, as they used to always come completely unlaced like AJ1's.
Still kinda confused as to why they didn't give us the silver leather on the retro. Didn't stop me from buying a couple of pairs though.

Tbh, I miss the days where they didn't factory lace the shoes. I unlace my joints whenever I get a new pair and let then sit for a while.
J kidd was proto kyrie. Those was the days
