yup yup
most people paying these extreme prices deserve it to be quite honest
no reason for peeps to not have a pair of shadows for a decent price
Separates the real shadow fans from the BEASTS
but what if you want a 2nd pair, like myself? Shadows are my favorite 1's, by far. If I've worn them 100's, in comparison, I've worn royals 15 times, breds 5 times, and black toes 10 times (not exact figure, of course).
I need that 2nd pair for a decent price.

Who counts how many times they wore a shoe? It's like the guy at the bar that's like I've had 3 whiskeys, two Guinness and two shots of jäger lol

Rook mistake man
If shadows were your favorite kicks when they released you would have def copped multiples (atleast doubled) knowing you were Forsure going to wear them as much as you do now
Atleast should of pulled the trigger when they were still readily available at $200 or under.
Perhaps you and I are different but I always cop multiples of the kicks I know ill b beating to the ground. Doesn't make any sense not to
LOL

Dudes got a chart on they wall before they leave the crib... And they notch it off every time they wear joints..
That's clownish. And every time I see a "shadows was my favorite joints bro" a part of me dies... Like keep it to that Royal and bred talk as your favorites at least that's more believable. "Shadows my favorite jays" so why wouldn't you double on your favorite jays?/ ones? Or triple?
I dunno if your bread ain't right then I understand but I know I'm not gonna be able to beat my shadows to a point of no return and I still doubled... But hey man dunno some of yall pockets.

That's what in saying bro
Dudes claiming shadows are their favorite kicks but pass on the original release or don't double up...
Makes absolutely no sense at all
Shadows are my favorite out of the trio which is why I'm sitting on multiples
Like I said before, peeps paying this ridiculous price deserve it

Quick PS of Black/White W/Black TongueI would def cop or at least attempt but wouldn't know how to do the NA tag. Thoughts?
*Used my black toe pic that I posted couple pages back.
These look tough! I thought about doing this to my b/w after swapping tongues on Blk toes but this has convinced me.
Repped

Its true. Dudes deserve to get hit 400-600 for some shadows, cause them joints were more than available... No excuses as to why dudes don't have shadows that really wanted em, they just lying hype caught up with them now they scrambling for shadows.

Maybe they just started to like them because the cool people who truly, originally liked them wore them. And they thought those guys were super cool and wanted to be like them.

I checked the Lasers out today. They are without a doubt the best quality leather I've seen on any AJ1s as far as recent releases. I even got that new shoe smell from the 90's when I tried them on. Might pick up a pair later this evening with a birthday coupon.

note that if you want this look, you would also have to paint the back heel area and air jordan logo?

In most cases I agree with you, however some people like myself were on a hiatus from the shoe game and completely missed it. Yeah it was my fault, but damn those Shadows were nice and I had to pay up to get them. So be it, I love em = P

i just wanted to point out that there is a bit more white on the actual pair. personally, i would do the switch to a black tongue but keep the nike air sign the same.

Shadows were such as easy cop. All the Beasts were after the toro 4s. I just went to a local mum and pop store and I think I was the only person in the line to buy just the shadows on the release day
OG Jordan 1 Shadows > Retro + Jordan 4 toro
