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

Happy MLK day NTers ... slumming and bundled up for bad boys 3 with the crew

Swoosh looks similar to me. Why were people in this thread saying the New Beginnings had a smaller Swoosh than the '85 OGs and how it took up less space than the '85 OGs?

But it is smaller, the shape of the OGs bows out more making it fatter. Even along the heel the material looks slightly thicker, very small details, but they add up. Closer than before, but still not 100% there.

These guys today.

Drop these thangs! I'd cop.

If rumors are true (and this rumor has been around for A MINUTE) that there might be a Travis Scott 1 High Chicago dropping (essentially a Chi with different materials (probably suede on the red overlay) and a reverse Swoosh) are indeed true...I’m passing. Have my 2015 Chis and Spideys, and only want an ‘85 rendition. Don’t care how much “hype” they’ll have.

I'd cop these in a heartbeat. I hope it's true.

Is the turn coming for the Pine Greens????

The leather wings patches on the pine green 1s were originally a deal breaker for me but now I’m reconsidering. The colorway is amazing, quality seems good, and considering the BS that JB is releasing nowadays, Pines are looking better and better by the day. I hate myself for coming to accept the trash Gentry keeps slapping me in the face with, but dayammm.

Pebbled leather and patch is a no go

The 2020 colorway looks so off. The red check looks no good. It's a shame.

Crap leather and the yellow foam in the tongue made them look pink. Super comfy midsoles though. You can get these cheap.

These are samples from 1985 with the dunk sole. MJ wore em in a couple games. They have never released and you can't get them anywhere.

You're thinking of the Jordan 1.5 or "the return" which has the Jordan 2 midsole. These are not the same shoe.

Ahhhh. Looks very similar, even the Nike on the wings logo.

jordan 1.5

Seen the 1.5s. Those aren't the same.

pretty sure they are .... besides the back slope which was incorporated after it became clear the flat back of the 85s put stress on a players Achilles.

 

[kilroythedon]

Those have a dunk sole..

 

[marikomorose]

The disrespect in typing such a thing.

 

[Magic33]

Those 1.5's are going for that much now? Wow

The sole is completely different.

Some people just have no clue

This is what happens when Chi hype reaches its peak... Have you seen what OG Chi lows are going for? It’s insane.

hoop3rfresh is a customizer. This is a 1.5 sole swapped with a dunk sole.
