Official Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG Thread

[ap24]

Big trash. JB will release every possible take-down of this shoe before a proper 85 version, and even then it’ll be a limited release.

Has there been sales of Game Royal Lows yet?

In the real world people don't complain about that stuff.

Five years from now people aren't going to say that's a nice colorway, but your swoosh isn't big enough.

Y'all need to learn to be free thinking instead on some follow the leader net nerd ****.

It’s not that serious fam-the 2015-2016 OG low models simply look far better than the small swoosh lows as do the 2024 85 lows.

If you disagree, you are entitled to your opinion.

 

[staffsgtdignam]

I agree with you on the bolded parts whole heartedly.

If we keeping it a buck most of those really sought after big swoosh pairs rotted on shelves when they released in 2015.

As the AJ1 low love has grown over the years people look back and realize we missed out on some good stuff but that's life.

Problem is they made the OG low design WORSE than the 2015-2016 run, which is baffling.

I can’t think of a time in Jordan Brands history where they made retro model design worse instead of improving upon it. They are usually good at improving the molds over the years so I think this is a strange exception. Even with OG Highs, the current mold has a better swoosh than 2022 and previous OG Highs and they have even made improvements to the 85s over the past few years.

No idea why they made the current OG low mold worse than the 2015-2016 OG lows, it’s bizarre.

Er, say what? JB literally made every retro worse compared to the first wave of retros in the late 90s and early 2000s. If it hadn’t, there wouldn’t ever have been a need for all these supposed attempts at remastering/improving them now.

Yeah that’s a good point but wasn’t that material quality and craftsmanship related? Like did they change the actual molds? I never owned any of the mid or late 90s retros so I don’t have any basis for comparison.

Lol bro are we talking about the same Jordan brand that intentionally stepped on all their products from like 2004/5- 2015 or so when the remastered series started?

Even if we just talking AJ1s there has been far more variants than OGs or OG Highs. The mid was literally the only high offered for like 4-5 years in the mid 2000s.

Honestly JB improving upon the molds is a relatively new thing. The V2 AJ1 high is still a relatively new update same with the updates with 85s.

Clearly, a change is coming to the OG low next year but it doesn't diminish the smaller swoosh lows i already own or will buy before the update comes.

Yeah, JB has jacked up molds and shapes repeatedly for years. The only thing that’s new is the relatively recent effort to improve some of the models.
