So they can sell you the 85 cut in a few years and you bought both to do a comparison . I’m in way defending Nike because I want every OG colorway to be released in OG form period but from a business standpoint, they couldn’t care less because they will sell. Besides the color, the low shadow is practically the same as the high, toe shape and everything. And the Highs were fine a few years ago. Matter fact look at my banned. The shape would be considered horrendous if they released today after we’ve gotten 85s, but before we loved them.So then why make the OG lows worse than the 2015s by taking away a lacehole and then making the toebox pointier?
They know casuals will buy it regardless.
That said, they have made improvements in the past by even releasing the 2015 OG low series in the first place since there were only Jumpman-branded retros beforehand.
