Maybe the one to hold the tongue? Must be his first pair of 1s. Or sneakers, a lot of them have tbat.
Care to take some pics?This is my 3rd pair of highs.
Shadow 2.0s and Hyper Royals don’t have tongue slits.

Made me check. SMH
Lol no need to be embarrassed that’s what we’re here for to help each other. Don’t stress they’ll break in just try What’s been mentioned and give it some time.Checked my 2.0s and Hyper Royals again and they do have slits. But they’re farther down on the tongue, therefore harder to spot I think.
Never noticed them before.
Noticed immediately with the Shadow 2018s.
...I’m embarrassed.
Pretty sure that's normal, I put my laces through those all the time.

Were these DS too? Doesn't really matter either way as they look to be in excellent condition, just the laces are choked on them.
Yes they were dead stock.
I stuffed the toe area with paper towels and tied them up tight.
…trying to stretch the leather out as much as possible.
You just order the wrong size or what?
I can’t be mad at these. I won’t buy them, but I’m not mad at them.Billie Elish Kos lol
You could iron them with a damp rag while stretching them. That would get the leather to loosen up.wide-footers: as much as I love AJ1s (and this goes for nikes in general), they always cause a problem with my right pinky toe. just last week I bought myself this device, and I've already used it to stretch my shadows, although I haven't worn them yet. After just after trying them on though, and at a close inspection from above, it's obvious I've gotten some extra room.
Premium Professional Boot Stretcher with Shoe Stretch Spray | FootFitter
If you're sick of using cheap, unreliable boot stretchers, the FootFitter Premium Professional Boot Stretcher is the finest and highest quality boot stretcher you'll ever see. Arguably the best boot stretcher on the market, this boot expander will stretch the toe area and transform your boots...footfitter.com
I don't know if the spray does anything–I believe it's literally just 1:1 rubbing alcohol:water–but you have to get the boot stretcher (as opposed to the shoe stretcher) for use with high tops.
I also size-swapped my 10.5 Mochas for an 11 today. Maybe it's just because of the stiffer leather, but as far as sizing is concerned, not all AJ1s are created equal.
How we feel about 2001s? This pic is of the pair I had 2 years ago before selling., was thinking about them yesterday. The color was great but honestly I didn't love these. Deflated midsole aside they weren't great on foot. Ankle was OD padded, leather wasn't as good as any other '01 jordans or nikes I've had, awkward kinda 3/4ths height. Then the nubuck swoosh of course didn't age well. Just wishing I had some '17s or even '13s now
have you actually checked the tags on the inside of the shoe to make sure they're both tagged 11.5s?
