Why no air max 93 og retro?

Just got the 2014 edition in the mail. There are definitely differences between this pair and the OG. I will upload a video on youtube here pretty soon to compare the two. Here is a quick snapshot. Fair warning: my OGs are DS, but are in horrible shape (had to shrink wrap them just to keep the rubber sole in tact with the rest of the shoe).

Honestly I think Nike did a very good job IMO. The only immediate differences I see are the toe box and smaller air max unit (neither of which surprise me at all) and the material of the inner "sock" looks slightly different. Can't wait to see your video review later. 
 
I just got these in the mail, I wear 12s in all air maxs but these were way to big. So be careful when ordering.
 
Probably means Seinfeld but he also used to rock Jordan VIs, VIIs, SC trainers, Agassi's, Mowabbs, etc...

These look OK to me but the mesh on the side is such a crazy far cry from the OG amd the overall shape is just not right to me. I was all about these a month ago but seeing them in person I underwhelmed. They're such a comfortable shoe that it's hard to make them uncomfortable so that's why I think they're getting a pass, but there's just too much other heat dropping right now across all brands for me to grab these.
 
My pair of menthols just arrived today and I went with my original size 8.5. I've read that they fit big but when I tried em on I thought to myself "these aren't bad going with your original size". I guess it all depends on how you want to wear the shoe. So if anyone else was wondering how these fit, they can fit true to size but going half a size down wouldn't hurt either.
