Official Air Jordan 1 Retro High Thread Vol: Best Model/Thread

[dreday79]

Im thinking about going after some KO's that are creeping up the Calendar...

MY ONLY QUESTION IS TO THOSE THAT HAVE HAD A PAIR...

I'M NOT A FAN OF SHOES THAT GET DIRTY QUICK OR STAIN EASY..

 seeing the KO's are mesh like…. how is the up keep on them???


anyone, anyone, Bueller, Bueller… anyone? 

I love the Chicago AJKO's and the Carolina's but that white canvas is a "b" too keep clean . For that reason I'm waiting until the Chicago's drop in leather og form. If it wasn't for them coming in a pack I'd be passing on those beautiful Unc's too.

KO's are canvas and not mesh... I beat the hell out of my black and reds, no issues with having to clean them, no stains... You won't regret buying them, IMO they're really comfy

Black and Reds are tough, certain things may stain them. I have a little discoloration on the red that's on the toe box from a drop of toothpaste. Overall, the can take damage.

It was raining in LA last weekend so I sprayed that water resistant stuff on them because I don't like when canvas gets wet.

The lighter color canvas gets dirty quicker tho. Lighter colors are tough to clean. White canvas ends up looking like a smudged grey color or yellow after cleaning.

yup. There are shoes that I've had for years with no heel drag

I like my sneakers really beat, especially my 1's, and 3's.. I guess it's still the old inner hipster in me.. I could care less about heel drag

Two sneakers that look great when worn down

My banneds have gotten heel drag the fastest I think but its still not noticeable unless you're looking for it.

OG because they had Nike Air branding instead of Jumpman/Jordan Brand branding.

Hype is just because they only released at a handful of HoH locations.

 

[luigyvintage03]

The leather pair of the colorway dropped in 85' correct me if I'm wrong.. And yes they were hyped, can't comment about materials since I've never seen them in person. Over all clean shoes for me if there were to be a future gr release I'll cop a pair.. No doubles though.

 

[xphishx713]

I like the black leather ones, not the patent leather ones

gotcha thx. so basically the og was 2003? not og as in 85?

 

[xphishx713]

Pretty sure they came out in 85 as a sample or color way , never game worn

 

[mantis toboggan]

found this.

so they did come out in 85? i had no clue. i never ever saw them around.  yea i fig they werent game worn lol

While the story on these varies a bit depending on who you ask, this OG black and gold Air Jordan 1  was produced in extremely limited quantities back in 1985 and given to MJ and close friends and family.

Said to be crafted in Europe out of Italian leather
