No.....the OGs are comfy like woah. Can't speak for earlier retros, but they're still retros so I don't doubt that they're less comfortable. These though....
I tried on the retros in person, and it was really disappointing. I wasn't expecting them to feel the same, but they were bad enough I completely did a 180 on buying one of my favorite shoes ever.

^ thats an awesome pic seth, they look real good there.
Sorry you didnt like em, I didnt think they were that bad tho, at least compared to what I thought a 'retro' of the griffs would turn out to be like anyhow. I still think they are more comfy than the retro 1's tho, the midsoles on those were real bricks imo, very inflexible. But since the og's are in the red zone now for wearability, well.. seeing as how ill prolly only get around to wearing the retros once a month or so I guess I can deal with it. Sadly tho, retro quality is so bad in general, anything they come out with will never be good enough for daily wear.
