Just got these Royal Reimagined. Man… I didn’t realize how fucking BLUE these are. I mean the picture doesn’t really show how bright they are in person. Not sure if I’m digging them or not. Only my second pair I have purchased.

    Think the suede will fade a bit over time with wear? Like become a dusty blue, almost turbo, blue? Or maybe darken up over time with wear?

    I like them and thinking that they were going to sell out I got three pairs from a few different places, including Nike, to compare the quality and with each one of them I found an issue with the blue suede. A tiny hole here, a white area there, a minor discoloration.

    I prefer not to worry about my sneakers being too easy to ruin so I returned them and paid a little more, $347, to get me a pair of Royals 2017 that I’m sure will live a long and happy life.

    This is my last purchase of 2023 (I know, famous last words) and now I am on hold until the 2024 AJ4 breds arrive.
