Weartesters review got me thinking about the Mocha lows, but the micro swoosh kills it IMO… :smh:

What is the history of the micro swoosh and where did it come from?

I know they used in on the Jumpman-branded lows but it’s so weird that design detail moved from there to the OG lows from 2015-2016 which historically never used it.

Peeps on here have said it came from the mold for the Koston SB lows. That explanation makes sense to me.

Even so, those released in like 2019, right? So bizarre they changed the 2016 design so drastically to make them LESS OG for some reason.

Hopefully on sale (deep discount) by Halloween. I'm getting so spoiled 30% off might not move the needle for me.

I need that 100 dolla holla.

Surprised FNL/JD isn't doing exclusive access for the mocha lows. I guess that's a sign these should be pretty plentiful come release day.

Anyone know the sizing on the Mochas? I usually understand half size down is normal, but for the shadow 1s lows i had to go up half a size. I had to get 7.5 in black toes and an 8 in shadows 1s

I'm normally a size 8 in highs, but for the latest OG lows i went half a size down. I did just that for the Trophy Rooms and I'll do that for the Mochas too.

Best bet is to go half a size down
