no amount of limited-ness will change how ugly they are
This!
They fall in line with the Highlight reels, Clovers, Laneys, and Knicks. A retro+ with NA as their only selling point.

completely agree. That colorblocking and clear sole is so off. it's not even close to being good. They only sold because JB strategically released them alongside the 6s and with nike air. no one would have cared if it released randomly and with no nike air. just like theseWith that said those Carmine 1s are terrible. Wouldn't even waste someone else's money on them for 140. They strongly resemble some of the mids and phat-esque AJ1s.
I'm searching, asked a guy to sell his worn pair and he told me $450. Didn't even reply. dont know what they go for but if dude thought his worn pair was worth that much then that's not a good signHow much are the Metallic Purple 2009(?) retro going for now a days?

^ thats what they said when royals came out. They had people who loved it and there were people who thought it was ugly... Just one thing that pisses me off is that they never got the chicago a Nike Air treatment... That wouldve been on the most balanced color for me..
nah that thread was str8 ruthless
is there an official royals 1 thread?
Thank you for your answer!I had the same thing happen to me with a pair of Oreo 6s I bought, felt like they had a weird lump on one foot that I was constantly stepping on, but I couldn't really feel it when I felt inside the shoe for it.
My solution was to take a old pair of thin insoles, and cut a chunk out of them in the spot where I felt the lump. I then put this cut up insole underneath the OG insole. This effectively built up the bottom of the shoe everywhere except where the lump was, evening everything out, and I couldn't feel the lump anymore.
Might be worth a try if you really want to rock them.
You deserve to be banned for puttin carmine and royals in the same sentence or even comparing the two
Smh
Same with me I'm expecting the black leather to be a but better than the white leather. JB and white leather don't mix well at allthose are def fake so i wouldnt really go by those pics.
hopefully the real ones have decent leather but im expecting black toe leather maybe worse

hopefully when i make that tongue swap I can sway some opinions on those carmines
Agreed. Looks mad cheap.Leather looks really really plasticky though on a mid/Chicago 2013 level... Hopefully not the case with retail pairs.
It's a sad day when fakes (if these are, probably are) get the midsole stitching color the right way though.those are def fakeso i wouldnt really go by those pics.
