    Did you see the gore-tex Jordan 1's ? I actually kind of like them. It takes something functional to impress me when it takes away from the original purpose of the shoe. While gore-tex is nothing new, I think it is new for this shoe. At this point, Jordan isn't playing and it has completely gone the way of lifestyle. Luckily a tougher material gives some alternate uses to the shoes and maybe some versatility.

    My body has been ready for a while. These are dope AF. They keep pushing them back. On SNKRS they have been pushed to Dec 4th. The only downside is that, unlike some of their other winter pushes, they did nothing to the outsole so it's pretty much useless if there's even a light dusting of snow even with that famous AJ1 traction.

    I also like the black/grey/green better than the "light bone" colorway that has no release date:

    Yeah I like shoes that don't look like shoes, and that's most yeezys. None of them look like shoes in the traditional sense, no tongue, laces don't really do anything, ect.

    Considering getting the insltd bt on the resale market.

    These 20-year-old stepped-on Reeboks earned me a nod and a sarcasm-free "Nice kicks" from my hypebeast coworker the other day.

    @M3NTAL copped a W on the Bordeauxs AND the AMM1s. On-feet pics coming the second they arrive.

    Love the burgundy. I didn't make the cut on that.

    @zerodeefex They're definitely beautiful in person. My prediction they'll be sold out by Friday so best to jump in and decide if you want to return them later.

    They were sitting at the footsites for $20 off for a long time and it offends my sensibilities that I'm paying retail for em now :). I might wait given I have (just AJ1s) 4 mids, 4 highs, 2 ZOOM CMFTs and 3 lows right now.

    Isn’t it random if you participate in the drop?

    They dropped on the AMM site a few days ago and I copped a W. It was pretty successful at defeating bots.

    Bordeauxs are definitely a solid pickup this year. I love how they look.

    The ACGs also came in:

    Bordeauxs surely legit! especially the untied silver laces.
    I'm also sad you stopped shaving your legs. and toes.
