What? Of course NIKE/JB aren't gonna confirm in materialJB has never confirmed why they change certain retros up. Also there have been many that may ahevhad logo changes but materials stay very consistent (white/black 1s, OG Bred 14s, Buggs Buny 8s, etc.) But these are not durubuk, JB doesn't use that anymore. The Bordeaux's aren't even Durabuck even though they were close.
what do yu mean what are the Bred XIV? Are you trolling the use of nickname that i gave these? U know exactly what I'm referring to, or perhaps you'd know what shoe I'm talking about if I said the last shots.What? Of course NIKE/JB aren't gonna confirm in material
change or we all wouldn't buy. What's OG bred XIV's? That's A new one.
I agree with you that these are not Durabuck. If they are then its A lower level
grade of Durabuck. Even the '99-'01 NA Retros didn't even have the same OF
Durabuck as used in the 90's.
haha thanks bro. I'm actually 34.Lol bro you stay posting gems I swear... You got atleast be late 20's like myself
haha thanks bro. I'm actually 34.

Had og 17s, og 18s, og 19s, og 20s, and a ton of retros over the years. AHHHH The memories!!!!!!!!!! Currently my collection sits at about 75 pairs, had a lot more but decided to sell a bunch that didnt have good leather. Plus a bunch more I couldnt justify owning anymore because I literally wouldnt have time to wear them all. I still got **** deadstock from 2006.
Here's 4 pairs I wanted to break out over the summer, but still never found the time or the right moment lmao.

And my point was, the whole idea of JB changing things on retros for collectors is only speculation and was prob was spread by some a**whole collector 10 years ago
I stand corrected. I still believe that JB is moving away from that design framework now a days.Not speculation. Gentry stated in an old interview that he felt retros should differ from OG's in order to pay homage to those that were smart enough to collect from jump.
Bro I swear we've live the same lives in sneakers lol... I got those pacific 7's with that bad as Matching bomber jacket... Leather was pretty good on those too... I need to take that jacket and have it tailored God knows Jordan brand ran extra big back then.., and I got those citrus 7's... They still DS too haha .... I had a rockawear jacket to go with them that I never wore

Damn I'm guilty as charged lol... I got old pics of me in it on niketalk somewhere... Lol had the brown one too... God damn niketalk never forgets
Which is asinine because OGs and early retros aren't gonna last forever even if collected. Gentry said that just to justify the changes as caring for the collector, but in reality was penny pinching during his horrendous tenure.
Think of it this way too. With changes you can double dip by fooling consumers i.e.White Cement 4s, Chicago 1s, etc. Also with changes collectors will buy each model with the slightest differences just to have each rendition.
Lol I had a shirt from rocawear that matched my citrus.
Back in 2006-2007 rocawear use to make matching apparel for Jordan's. I have grape color jacket somewhere around my house
Is this the sweater you talking about fam?Lol I had a shirt from rocawear that matched my citrus.
