Thanks for all the love, glad to see lots of people enjoying this shoe as much as I do!
IMO the og's have the best patent leather cut, in terms of quality, thickness and actual placement on the shoe. Even at 18 years old they hold up (I wouldn't try to wear them but I'd bet they wouldn't fall apart on me). However, the 2001s are a solid second in overall quality, and I have another pair of 2001's I still wear that are still going strong. With that said, the 2012's aren't too bad themselves just the patent leather seems cheaper/thinner, then last the 2008's because of the stiffness of the leather and sole.
I plan to do a few more of these "og vs. retro(s)" comparison shots soon, so keep an eye out!
Those pics if you're planning to do alot of shots you probably should open a thread.
Need to break my pair out soon, been on ice for almost 4 months :\
