the og's had a red insole with the "Nike , a swoosh and and air at the bottom. This version has nike and then a swoosh. I dont care to be honest but its funny how some remasters get done almost 100% to the original and some dont

Id imagine they'll have it right for production. If the 8s awere done right then I don't see them screwing these up.

But why is the tongue netting black? It just looks odd without the contrast of the black laces in front of the translucent tongue.
Not sure if even real, if it is. I hope JB fixes that.

no I'm talking about the release pair. Even if the insole isn't remastered if still be down.
Still not as much noise being made about these as u thought. I thought these were most people's grails.

Yes, and the jumpman had to be blurred out due to advertising issues.

OH GOD YES!!!
These are just....
PHENOMENAL!!!!
These are the best, most accurate Jordan Retro in years IMO!!!
Like @Super Producer J said, ABSOLUTE SNEAKER PERFECTION!!!!
This is one of the BEST Jordan's of ALL-TIME (In my top 5), and a proper retro has been LONG over due!!!
I must have no less than 2 pairs h***, maybe three pairs!!!
I wish they'd put this much effort, into makin' the 4s look this good.
Hopefully, we don't have to wait until Black Friday 2016. But, I'm not trippin' if I have to, I just wanna make sure I have my $460-$700 ready!!!
So far, this is the MOST anticipated Nike/JB release of 2016 IMO....
These are one of my Jordan grails (Top 5 All-Time) and they just passed the WC 4's by a ****** landslide!!!
I pray to the "Sneaker Gods" that they're NOT limited, and all of NTers eat easliy....
But, since they're gettin' rid of certified release dates, they're might be bloodshed over these.
Repped to the unadulterated fullest @louytromps & @kennmo08 for the new pics!!!!
It's funny, I was just about to look and see If I could find some new pics of these, and low and behold....
Y'all already posted em.
Once I get two pairs of these in my possession, my 2011's will become beaters...
They're already not aging well.

additional pic of tongue

Repped again @jaylaw15, the 3m tongue is super on point. It's also d*** nice to see Nike back on the lace lock finally. My only major concern is the black netting on the tongue.
My thirst is so hard that I didn't even notice, and still wouldn't have unless @AirThompson didn't point it out. Good eye G, repped also.

They may not change it, they purposely kept the Olive on the back of the bordeauxs and the tongue despite fixing the green on the outsole. While the color on the insole isnt a big deal the black netting on the tongue is quite disrespectful.

Yeah I know these are probably fakes (or samples) but they really need to change that netting under the tongue. Also do you guys think they will do a true clear sole like the OGs had (and the maroon 6's this year) instead of that new blue crap that was on the infrared 6'sRepped again @jaylaw15, the 3m tongue is super on point.

I doubt they'd keep the smoked outsole. I hope they just bring back the good ole' clear outsoles. Didn't people's maroons and 72-10s come yellowed? I'm not a fan of the blue sole too much but I'd take that over the cream sole.
