the supremes, yes. These, no. But from what i can obviously see in retail pairs from folks like ds dan, they are not the same.
These aren't the 2011, pair. These are b grade 2007 pairs with nike air and no 23

If I had the money, I'd buy them and midsole swap it. When the sekrit 1995 sample came, I was about to buy them just to make people mad.

Looks like his pair had way more speckles than what's dropping

These are worth the $220 simply due to the stitched 23 being removed. Always hated that on the post OG releases.
Nice touch with Tevin
Yeah Definitely. I know his PE had the 23, but I did not like it on the side, especially that the font was smaller.
So the 2000 is similar in the toe box area in that it is slanted inward and not boxy like all shoes should be. However, the cut of the front part of the toe box on the 2000's is not as big as the ogs.
The 2016 is similar to the ogs in that they got the cut of the front portion of the toe box right, but it is too boxy/bulky and doesnt slant the way it should. Think flight 89 toe boxes vs recent AJ IV Toe Boxes.

Nobody likes slanted toe boxes except OG stans tho. The
2000 and Flight 89 style is how it should be.

This comment makes no sense. The Flight 89 is an example of modern shoe that has the OG-like slant....

Flights are, and 99-00s were slanted.

There's a difference between clown shoe slant that you see on the OG 3's and 5's and what you get on 99-2000 3\4\5.

A slant is a slant. Now your back-tracking from your original statement.

There's a difference between looking like a Size 20 and a typical slant.

No one asked for the boot cut toe boxes either. The slanted toe boxes are what they're supposed to look like.
