I home BW Chicagos and VRL Breds and Black Toes. The BW have serious QC issues in terms of pattern - panels not consistent in size, so you may have the top of the swoosh on one shoe 1/4 inch closer to the eye stay panel as an example. It will drive you nuts if you look at the left and right shoes side by side. The VRL's are damn near perfect. No QC issues. I like what BW is doing and the toe box shape is lovely but you get what you pay for.
Developer Boring CLEARS the 85 sneaker game. The price is perfect, the shape of the 2.0 is beautiful and the materials are stronger now. They are my go-to 85 guys
Hey great video. DB has a v2 of this shoe coming out where the issues you brought up are going to be addressed. The v2 will be breds and Chicago's as well dropping by end of this month.
Shout out to this man for calling me out on one issue: can't be no "Jordan 1 King" (his words not mine 😂) when you don't have an OG pair of Chicago 1's in your collection. Bruh...I went to the damn source to fix that problem, huh? 😏 Appreciate ya watching 👊🏾
Boring Watch used calf leather for the first rendition of his pairs, that’s why the leather is super thin. This month however, him and his team revised the shoe for the Bred 85’s release and Chicago restock with the 2.0 rendition which looks a lot closer to Nike’s Retro 85’s this time around. I always thought the VRL’s were well done, being a mix between the 85 and 94 models of Jordan’s but I couldn’t get myself to spend that money lol. Great review!
Thank you, I appreciate your input about this subject! I feel that with any batch that the factories across the water make, they are always going to improve on their original rendition, or version of the sneaker. This is why I wanted to show people what's available now, but let them know that more than likely in a couple of months, not even years, there's going to be a better version of the sneaker, so there's no reason to get upset or stressed, because it's going to get better on every batch that is created.
@@tykisa82 most definitely. Will you get your hands on the 2.0s from Boring if they come out? They look very nice based on photos he’s shared online. I don’t know if anybody got their pairs yet.
Nice and right mang - good news (with bad news): VRL's going to another profession, so he's not making sneakers anymore, BUT he's liquidated his remaining stock...with that being said, I got a pair of his Mocha 1s on the way (will be here for review soon) so I can show y'all a more recent pair to look at 👊🏾
Sounds right... crazy how things that people were cool with back then can cause people nowadays to look at a perfect pair of kicks with the side eye. 😏 Wait a minute...🤣 "The ironing is delicious."
Grabbed the “Banned” 85 a couple a months ago for $100 shipped and was blown away 👍🏾 Just got version 2 of the Chicagos this week and these are so dope👌🏾 Gonna grab the Black Toe PE and UNC colorways when they drop as well. I might even double up on the Banned, Chicago and Black Toe for $160 for 85s you can’t beat it✌🏾
Thank you, Ms. 🔥 - means a lot coming from you; yeah, I'm just glad that what I thought about these sneakers that I just got from Developing Boring Studio has now been confirmed, because I was wondering how he was going to make up for the difference in the quality of the materials or the thickness of it versus the mass production that he's having to do to satisfy the status quo that is the consumer. Something's gotta give. Less time to receive your order, quality suffers. Better quality, your order time before the pair is received is increased exponentially. It is what it is. 😐
Got a black toe and Chicago from VRL and I need a Bred but I have to pay extra for the sole in my size. I may give DB a try. My VRLs are perfect though.
I saw a video on Boring about 3 days ago, I immediately went to the site to purchase and they were already sold out. The video was just uploaded... crazy.. know anywhere else... VRL sold out too..
Anywhere else to get dem thangs? Not as of yet, but you can best believe they'll have more available soon. These kicks are too 🔥 to not work on fulfilling the wants of the sneakerheads out there (like yourself). 😌💯
They are high in price...real talk? VRL was a little tight with me at first cause he thought I was not repping his correct prices...NOT TRUE, SIR. 🤣 I, the messenger, will DEFINITELY let y'all, the potential consumers, know what it is ALWAYS. 😊💯 (Safe to say at this point it's $700 or $800 per pair BEFORE shipping 😐)
First pair that they created...they didn't use the thickest of materials, but their more recent releases have really improved; check out my BW 85' Royal AJ1 review to see the difference. 👍🏾

Yes - the 2.0 version definitely looks better; I'm glad more and more people are going with that version of 85s. It's an awesome time to be a sneakerhead. 😌
2.0 look better than the ones in the video? I'm thinking about buying it, but in the video they look like they're handicapped compared to VRL 😅 I would like to buy VRL but the price is definitely too high for me...

Exactly - I'm glad you mentioned that so everyone who's interested knows that Boring's constantly working hard to improve on his kicks
Feels good to be watching this

@@xlr8rify probably not, but those Bred 1s though? For sho 😁 💯
For the new release did they use cow or pig leather this time?
@MyéléMyers cowhide bro - thanks for watching
great vid! How's the fit on the VRL?

What im hearing about the leather also occurred on certain batches from different factories back in 85

Great video. It helped me to decide on DB. Going to give them my hard earned money. Nike caters to the resellers so gotta go in a new direction.

That part. 💯
Appreciate the view, bro.
VRL is definitely number one but I would be happy with Boring Watch version. Great comparison 👏🏽👏🏽

Most welcome bro 👊🏾
VRLs are fire but boring catching up with that unc colorway
Got a black toe and Chicago from VRL and I need a Bred but I have to pay extra for the sole in my size. I may give DB a try. My VRLs are perfect though.
I understand - VRL's version of the original Jordan 1 is a masterpiece that we get to wear whenever we want 😎
Always informative. Preciate ya big homie💯✊🏾
Thanks for watching 👊🏾

@@tykisa82 Well, I appreciate you getting back at me, I already subscribed to Boring and signed up for notifications when they have more.
Boring all day: Quality price pairs. VRL prices are crazy mad

I like your content my bro
Appreciate you bro - BW Royal 85 vid coming soon 👊🏾
I mean 600 to 150 lol for 600 quality better be better
🤣🤣🤣 Heard, bro. 👊🏾
Just can’t pull the trigger on them for 600, but I did get the boring_watch pair in last week, to me they are better then what we get from Jordan👏🏽👏🏽
Damn right they are 💯
Did these smell like glue on the inside?
The scent was faint within both pairs...there wasn't a strong glue smell at all 👍🏾
VRL takes it
Yerp. Boring watch got it done but...dah well. They got time to make better batches in the future. 😌
Boring’s is cheap garbage
First pair that they created...they didn't use the thickest of materials, but their more recent releases have really improved; check out my BW 85' Royal AJ1 review to see the difference. 👍🏾
@@tykisa82 VRL is now the same price as boring's. They went under and liquidated all their stock. Snagged a VRL Chicago for $149.
