I’m glad everyone passed because it made it easier for me to cop. Don’t have a lot of green shoes, but I have a few outfits in mind to go with these. Love the colorway personally and these are gonna be in my rotation this fall/winter🤘
Pushing 40 and I wear Js on the regular. It’s usually bland people who can’t put together a fit who’d say stuff like that. The rest of us who can appreciate style don’t care.
Jordan 1s came out in 85, so if anything, they’re our generation’s shoes to rock.
If you love them, get them! Your opinion is the only one that counts.
A few boutique stores have them in stock:

Otherwise, they’re selling at retail on StockX/GOAT/eBay.
Love these! Super easy to style, they’re gonna be my go-to beater. I have wide feet also, so I do appreciate the wider toebox.
I do like the more padded heel area (improves comfort), but I don’t love how it makes the shoe look bulkier around the back.
I put some light grey laces on mine to match the swoosh :)
Yea I don’t think you can tell if a sneaker is real or not by comfort alone. Reps nowadays are made in the same factory as authentics with the same materials and specs. The only way to know is by obsessing over the smallest details like the stitching, shape/color/box comparison, the smell test, or using blue light to potentially expose guidelines.
Another way is to find imperfections. If you see a lot of glue stains, chances are your pairs are authentic.
