Air Jordan 1 Chicago premium sample by Developer Boring VS 2x OG’s

** Jag kommer absolut att köpa ett par, men gärna i en annan CW, Breds antagligen.

** Bra att de skickar ut skor såhär till experter så de kan fortsätta förbättra skorna.

** Ja det känns rätt så idiotiskt att betala dubbelt så mycket för ett par kopior, plus dyr frakt, men de är bättre än dem från Nike själva så..
Jag ser det som ”RestoMod” skor.
En RestoMod bil är dyrare än en original bil, men bättre.

** Inga priser är ute ännu, men de kommer nog att kosta minst 400 usd, och sen har de rätt dyr frakt, 60 usd plus försäkring på 10 usd.
Så 500 usd, tull och moms..
Så det blir 3 gånger dyrare än ett par dåligt gjorda skor från Nike, men jag ska ha ett par.

Och om Nike själva hade släppt så bra skor så hade vi gladeligen betalat 10 000 kr retail och folk hade betalat 5000 usd resell.

** Såhär skriver dem själva om den senaste versionen av deras skor

”85s Full Grain Leather Second Sample 🔥

We are glad that we were able to produce the second sample quickly, but there are still some things that need to be clarified.

Regarding the swoosh size🤔:

We strictly adhered to the OG retail release during production, and we were very happy with the swoosh after completing the prototype. However, after the release, everyone agreed that the swoosh needed to be larger. Although the swoosh size remains the same as the OG retail release, we’ve decided to send the shoes to a retail partner with multiple pairs for comparison before making any adjustments.

Due to this adjustment, pre-orders for the premium 85s, originally scheduled to begin next week, may be delayed by approximately 10 days.

We will await feedback from partners as they release videos and make a final decision on whether to enlarge the swoosh 🤝

Two major differences between the 85s Premium and the regular 85s 2.0 👀:

1. The 85s Premium uses full-grain leather, which increases the leather cost by 2.5–3 times (including material wastage).

2. The 85s Premium will be made using a more traditional method — a fully hand-crafted board-lasting process. Very few craftsmen still possess this skill today, and we need to pay them additional wages for their expertise.

About 85s Premium Version Pre-Order Price 💰:

We’ve had intense internal discussions about the pricing. I wanted to set an affordable price, but it’s extremely challenging.

Considering the time and money invested upfront, my initial projection was that the 85s Premium Edition would end up retailing for over $400.

Currently, in the market, products made from the same materials are rarely priced below $1,000, so our price appears reasonable.

However, I still feel this deviates from DB’s original intention. We decided to keep the price below $400. I already have a base price in mind, which I will announce when the pre-order begins 🙏

Those who join the first batch of orders will also enjoy a very special discounted price. The pre-order is expected to start at the end of this month, and I will announce the exact price at that time.
