at least one of yall could have enlightened as to why the banned 1s have tumbled leather when others 1s haven't had it, since its not because the OG banneds had it. When correcting people you should provide the correct answer.
It's Been Shown Numerous Times Before That Ol' Boy Literally Has No Clue What He's Talking About
Generalized Assumptions At Best
Take It For What It Is
Amen
Just regurgitating what others say and because he has red font it makes his post stick out and look important when really, he has no idea.
Sorry, no hate towards the kid it just needs to be said with the way he posts

I can give an explanation bro since these:
got so much critical acclaim for their quality they decided to use the same type of quality on these:
they made these to try to satisfy the people who wanted the 2011 version (or quality like the 2011 version; even though the 2016 version obviously doesn't have that type of quality) and 2013 version but could not get them. In order to appease both parties they removed the X off the heel (to appease the people who wanted the 2013 version) and stamped it inside of the shoe with the correct date this time along with high quality leather (to appease the people who wanted the 2011 version). So then pawned them off with the same nickname as the 2011 version. Basically this is a retro of the 2011 version that was released in outlets. In conclusion, the other original colorway 1s will not have this tumbled leather quality because of the reason listed above.

Thanks but I was referring to the other people. I don't know if you're right, but if corrected you I would explain why you were wrong.

Do you have any sort of sources or are these simply your opinions?

It's actually common sense, you can tell where Jordan Brand got the inspiration from to use that type of quality, everyone knows the date on the original 2011 version was wrong, and it's all in the marketing and nickname they used for the shoe.

Ok, so it's your opinion. Just wanted to be clear.
Passing opinions off as fact just because of "common sense" really doesn't help anyone.

"Common sense" 
There's no common sense when it comes to JB, they do whatever the hell they want

JB got a killer deal on lamb skin, that's why the 2016s are tumbled [emoji]128514[/emoji]

So, if the 2016 B/Red is specifically a retro of the 2011 B/Red... what is the 2011 a retro of? lol Smh

Commerate the whole banned campaign they did for MJ's first sig shoe but they messed up the dates which is why it went to outlets in 2011. That's pretty much it. The 2016 retro is for the 30th anni of the Is too as well as the 31 having a black/red come. Don't know if this answers your question or not lolSo, if the 2016 B/Red is specifically a retro of the 2011 B/Red... what is the 2011 a retro of? lol Smh

It's pretty obvious the '16 banneds are a retro of '11 banneds. The fact that nike marketed them as such is proof enough but the date, tumbled leather, etc.. so anyone worried about tumbled leather on royals or other og 1s shouldn't. I like the look tho so it probably wouldn't be a deal breaker if they did

I Think It's Common Sense That Jb A) Need something to distinguish the'16 pair from the '13, 94, and '01 pair, and they wanted to do so with a guaranteed sell out so they B) Bit off banned2011 hype by marketing then as such and C) bit off of SBB tumbled craze.
