I know im gettin old but i just dont see why these young guys who havent done crap get exclusive jordan Retros like 1s. There are alot of guys who deserve and have deserved shoes like that and not just kobe or lebron. Melo gets the sweet knicks colored og and all Dominique gets is a laughing stock. Thats a joke.

Thats a stinkin shame. I would have liked a Jordan 1 shadow with a "big fundamental" slapped on the insole.

Melos are dope. It's a consolation prize that why the hype is there. Besides what go harder with jeans regardless of the fit. Boot cut all way to skinny jeans. [emoji]128293[/emoji][emoji]128293[/emoji][emoji]128293[/emoji][emoji]128077[/emoji][emoji]9996[/emoji]

quality of materials used on the melo 1s is very nice. I think a lot of peoples minds would change if they saw the shoe in person. The gold is a very nice tone

That's 1s in general. No hype or nothing added. Heart felt response. The 1st model might be the most sophisticated shoe besides the concord 11. Words can't describe how the 1 brings a outfit together. I can remember this weekend trying to decide between a pair of wheat timbs and some bred 1s. My outfit was a military green jacket and some dark rinsed slim fit jeans with a lumberjack flannel shirt to tie it all in. Breds killed that fit! I guess the lack of the new technology and the basic setup has alot of ppl second guessing. Not to say alot of ppl are in tune what the 1s bring to table. To have a personal pair regardless of cw clarifies things way beyond general comprehensive [emoji]9996[/emoji]

No they're not... that material is nothing special. KO has NA and still sitting.

I LOVE the Melo's, but this might be a reach. Lol.
I feel the same way about the Clovers, but almost all of em go for less than $200. For the life of me I can't seem to find a pair for $85-$100 shipped in a sz 9. I missed out when the outlets had them for like $70.
They're underrated on NT, but I'm learning that while NT is a popular sneaker community-the popular opinion isnt always the NT opinion. PLENTY of people NOT on NT love the Melos. This is a shoe that got a blotched release date, and basically little to no hype and still sells out within 48 hours most places. People like them.
I wish more releases were like this tbh. It eliminated lines, shady raffles, etc. Employees were shady with the info in the beginning but once places started getting restocks employees were helpful in locating pairs. I even used bday coupons on a few pair. I had to get an extra one for the future....and I NEVER EVER EVER double up on a shoe....EVER.
The material is definitely nice on the Melos. Melos are one of the few shoes that just look better in person.

Honestly, it's cheap material on Melo. Cheap plastic with gold color. Suede nubuck as main form. And around ankle it's plastic mesh. It clearly got hype because store release randomly with no schedule.
If you want to go into material in specific, Nouveau 1 beats it by long shot.

Nouveau's are one of the best mids IMO. Quality is superb and colorblocking is simple.
