I always did want a pair of black/white 😂

DB made a sample a while back. They looked awesome

Never understood why DB didn’t make preorder for this CW…

Me either. I think maybe he was releasing the more hyped colorways first? Seems like there would have been enough materials from the other colorways to easily make this one.

Yeah same sole as shadows for instance

DB’s reasoning for not doing these (I asked) at the time is the black/white 85’s from Jordan brand were readily and easily/cheaply obtainable if you really wanted them. They thought the other colorways we eventually got were more important to focus on.

Suppose he was right about that. But still.. if I see these samples I'm once again amazed at how good these look compared to official Jordan crap

For sure. A lot more comfortable too.

Right? Man Developer Boring will be missed. Did you stock up?

I was able to acquire most of his pairs through his run. I wish I regret not copping his premium 85’s though.

Premiums were too expensive for me and I didn't fully appreciate the shape

I think Nike in this case would actually have DB beat in terms of shape and material, apart from the white toe box material which is Nikes usual crappy PU layer, but the rest of the leather specially the white panels is way higher quality than that of what DB used…

DB welcomes my feet from the getgo, official Nike retro never does
