Official Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG Thread

Someone early said these are cut big. That's not true. They are cut a tad bit smaller than mystic navys and corals imo. I grabbed a 10.5 from undftd as the 11 sold out before I could checkout. The 10.5 was a bit snug. Luckily DTLR still has some sizes so I was able to grab my sz 11 this am. Go there soon if you still looking bc sizes are slowly selling out. I got the last 11 they had at wheaton mall. Security had a few left also.

I agree, I was one of those people. Must have been the socks I had on… now that I have 11.5 & 12, I do prefer my normal AJ1 size 12. In terms of look on-foot, the more snug doesn’t spread out as much around the ankle when wearing, though.

Straight to feet. These are dope. I like them, but bc of the materials and exposed foam here's my ranking...

1. Mystic navy
2. Coral
3. EX

Ended up with 3 pairs of mystic navy’s. That’s how good they are IMO. They need to remake the OG’s with the same leather.

The ex are my first pair of OG lows, and I have two pair of the standard 1 lows. Never realized how much I hate the fit of the tongue on the standard pair. Say what you will about the Jumpman vs the Nike Air, but the tongue makes them feel and look so much better imo. I’ve been sleeping hard. :smh:

Same, I have 3. They really are that good. Very subtle. On another note, these really are a great pair to beat up...

That exposed foam look on the toebox is just not for me. And the ventilation holes look weird. These aren’t needed. Mystic Navy’s simply crush these. Not even close.

It's all personal opinion... mystic navy didn't make me even flinch. The muted blue does nothing for me.

I only own Travis' and multiple of the EX but I have respect for everyone's choices.

Cheers...

Yes, yes, it’s all personal opinion. The Mystic’s, navy is my favorite color and the quality of the materials is really good. Plus, the color blocking is old school like the Black/Royal’s.

The Black/Smoke Grey is nice, but the exposed look on it, just not for me. I‘d bite for 60 bucks for beaters.
