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

[akrobystia]

These are so fire in hand...

Recommended to anyone waiting on the US drop.

“Underrated”. “Slept on”. Am I right?

Eh. Not bad but everything can't be "fire" lol. Not accusing you of this necessarily but that term is definitely overused.

 

[classxsick]

traded my extra pair of royal toes for smoke greys and im loving em

 

[D_eezus]

Today was mine and my girls anniversary.

She let me know they got delayed by stockX but she got us both The spider-man 1’s. Spider-man has always been my favorite superhero

Crazy thing is i was eying them a couple weeks ago too. These definitely gonna hold me over until the drop Chi’s

 

[thepromisedland]

Rocking these today, not the best colourway but not the worst either..

im still sick I missed out on these smh

 

[spoonmanofthehour]

not quite lol

Dude, color in the toe and it’s the same exact blocking.

 

[laxidasical]

Gym reds better than royal toes imo

I’d agree with that take.

 

[ozboi]

Now I wouldn’t go that far with it

 

[laxidasical]

Dude, color in the toe and it’s the same exact blocking.

It’s more the execution. The Royal Toes I had in hand were just super low quality. I decided to pass on them. I own 2 pairs of the Gym Reds, one of which I customed into black and whites (Wanted them in the rotation and the most recent retros are too expensive and the leather is kinda hard).

 

[charmcitykid]

So cats callin them the Onions?

we lazy. someone carelessly threw it out there. it's easy. eff it.

I consider all the shoes in my collection fire

Otherwise they don't make the cut for me lol

 

[Cllctr_bh]

im in love with these cant even lie. better than the TS for me too. really hope i can score in Nov.

 

[vinotwofour]

Dude, color in the toe and it’s the same exact blocking.

if we're being technical:

1. toebox color obviously
2. sole color
3. swoosh color
4. midsole color

so not quite the same exact blocking but yes there are a lot of similarities

How'd you miss those lol? They seemed pretty easily attainable and were sub-retail on SX for awhile.

I wanted to do that with one of my extra pairs and bought it specifically for that purpose, but now that the 85 line was announced, I'm just waiting for the real Black/White.

I had hoped the Royal Toe was just gonna be a blue version of the Gym Red. Basically a reverse Game Royal (like the Gym Red being a reverse Chicago).

better than Trav High?

Glad I doubled up on Spideys when they were $250ish soon after release... That release is a MUST for Spiderman and AJ 1 fans.

I was on a flight to atl that morning for a funeral. My size (8.5- never ever goes sub retail in ones NEVER. Couldn’t find one person to oop either.

Ah that makes sense. My size (11) was in the $140s for a while. If only Smoke Greys would do that too. Literally the first release missed in years.

 

[Ingenious Bastard]

better than Trav High?

Depends on who you ask.

To me....hell nah. Way more creativity on the Travis'.

(They're both sexy though.)

 

[headdetective]

In before someone says cats only like Travis’ because of the resell.

Trust me, it’s comin.

I forgot about the different swoosh colors and the sail midsole. Ok, a lot of similarities. lol

 

[charmcitykid]

obviously no hype behind these, but who cares about hype? 👁👁 these are fire *indestructible flame suit activated*

probably THE most slept on release. i like the stealth look. remember, i rock force fields in all my kickd so creasing doesn't exist in my world. i like these alot better thsn my gym reds. i guarantee yall ppl will see the vision later...

 

[headdetective]

I’m good bruh, enjoy

 

[nickname.esco]

love how everyone got their own taste.

now all the mid drops make sense.

 

[infraredsix]

Those mochas look weird with the blk toebox and sole to me. I liked them when they looked like the poor mans TS
