Congrats on the pick-up!My pair just arrived.
First impressions:
-not as bulky as anticipated but still bulky (think Jordan 12 only a tiny bit wider)
-went .5 size down (thought they would be huge) and they fit me perfectly
-more comfortable than the Kamikaze 2s IMO
-Ashy w/ gluestains (get ur brushes and razorblades ready)
These. Are. Fire.
Congrats on the pick-up!
To me, they're bulky in today's market. In my opinion, the Jordan XII isn't bulky at all. I'd probably go with the XIII if you wanted to make a comparison (Even then, these are a bit bulkier than those.). I wouldn't suggest going 0.5 size down nor do I think they're more comfortable than the Kamikaze IIs. No ashiness or glue stains on either of my pairs so basically, I completely disagree with everything you've said...
Really? You're going to compare a virtually new pair of shoes to a broken-in pair of XIIs that's either been worn by someone with 'cankles' and/or laced in a way to provide enough room for someone with wide ankles? Regardless, I can work with this. If you put in the same amount of wear into the Shaqnosis', they will also widen(i.e. They will become even more bulkier & wider than your XIIs). My definition of bulk is not based on weight, but more so girth(pause). The Question is a bulky shoe. To me, the XII is not. (Heavy? Yes. Bulky? Not really)...Congrats on the pick-up!

Shaqnosis (size 11.5) Vs. Jordan 12 (size 11.5 - only shoe I go a half size down in, usually a 12 in everything else)
If you find the Shaqnosis bulky and not the 12s, then I don't know what ur definition of bulky is. Personally I find that the Shaqnosis is lighter than the 12s. Just my 2 cents. As for the comparison with the Kamikaze, the Shaqnosis has the obvious upper hand in terms of cushioning which makes it at least more comfortable on my end. My All-Stars still get plenty of wears, and having only worn the Shaqnosis for a little bit I can tell you that these are more "casual wear" friendly, even having half sized down. The added cushioning in the heel is not restricting at all.
I don't think there will be a reverse color, since it never was in 95-96, unless Reebok decides to make one just couse they can.
I know they are broken in but ur 12s look crazy wide. U sure your feet might not have some extra Ibs? They got treadmills these days. HAHAHA!..I come in peace and mean no harm .Shaqnosis (size 11.5) Vs. Jordan 12 (size 11.5 - only shoe I go a half size down in, usually a 12 in everything else)

I start to comment on that earlier but didn't. But you pretty much stated what I wanted to post.and there were never orlando and heat colorways back in 96. your argument is invalid
Yes, unfortunately they do.In most cases when OG styles are retro'd not only do they come in OG colorways but in retro+ colorways as well. Hell, in pretty much every case these days.
i am officially bowing out on these and getting the fire red iv's. they are just to damn sick.
