I love these as well. I remember a trend where folks were drilling lace holes into the shoes and lacing them up. To each their own but that ruins the whole concept to me.

Right now: 2023 Jordan 1 retro low OG “Black Toe” All time: 2013 Lebron X “All Star Area 72”

Right now because I could easily double up and get another pair without paying too high over retail so I don’t mind beating them up and wearing them often.

All time because during the Nike basketball era, my parents couldn’t afford to buy me more than 1 pair of shoes a school year so I always admired these. Now I’m glad that I have them in collection as an adult. I even bought a size for a toddler (they’ll fit him in 5 years or so).

OP are those the Chris Paul’s or Neutral Greys at the top left? Very nice pickups btw.
