Just had to share. After years of wearing retros and the latest Jordans, I broke out my OG XIIs to wear today. Dang, I forgot how soft shoe leather can be. These are some quality shoes.

Take care,

I'm saying though.

I expected there to be a cool high quality picture of dude's pair or something, but I guess that was too much to ask for.

The hell are we supposed to say to this?
 
Yeah, I love the leather on my VVVVNDS OG Black/Red XII's. Too bad I can't wear them because they're a size 8.5.  Maybe I could find a good home for them...

The leather may be good quality but I dont like the look of it on the shoe. Retros > OGs for appearance
 
Quality on the first retro black/red XII's are top notch imo. probably one of my favorite J's...

You sir are very funny.

  
 
He's not joking. Anybody who's owned an OG pair of 12s and '2003' pair of retro 12s will tell you that the '03' retros were more comfortable. I know because I owned them.
 
OG XII's weren't comfortable

And what is this soft leather? Quality leather, but not close to soft.
 
do you really think your 13 year old shoe leather is as it was when they released?

Here you go, and he's right you guys are wasting money on these current releases.

my boy was selling his collection about a month ago and i picked up a pair of og bred xii's without the box for $120 off him and these are probly a 9/10. imo you cant even compare the og's to retros. og's>>>>retros, especially the garbage from this past year, and i have the wht/reds

Correct, the Retro 12 was the only ever retro to be superior to its OG model

not true. OG 12's have better leather, ankle support because they are slightly higher cut theyre are even more durable
 
Yea, OG's are better then retros, This is not a surprise to anyone.
