  • As a parent, I've been thinking about the meaning of heirlooms and what legacy is all about. That's why I am drawn to shoes like these. They represent time and timelessness. They don't look like much at first take but it's their longevity that will ultimately show their true worth.

      You can wear almost anything with this colorway. Its a neutral color and you could let the outfit speak for itself and tone the shoe down. Or you can play with the colorway of the shoe and let the shoe speak for the outfit. Neutral colorways literally can go with anything (like the waverunners 700)

  • @bonis3839

    I have 2 questions, does the denim part of the sneaker clean the same way the leather does? Also is the tan on the sneaker the same shade as tan as most others on sweatshirts, crewnecks, or flannels?

    • @minsoochoi
      @minsoochoi  Год назад

      I have not had the need to clean them yet but my educated guess is that they are slightly different but not enough for you to use two different processes (any standard cleaning kit will be fine with both)--I would say there is a higher chance of the denim bleeding if overtreated. I'm not sure what the most common color of tan is but think of a pancake or a very light golden color.

  • @musemellow
    @musemellow Год назад +4

    It's a massive misconception that this pair will develop patina, just because it's a PAINTED in Tan colour.
    The process of dying leather dress shoes is not the same as how Nike PAINT their Jordan sneakers.
    Jordan uses heavy layer of PAINT coating to cover its inferior leather cut, and thus will NOT develop distress/patina.
    Dress shoes on the other hand, are typically TANNED using thinly coated with oil based solutions (fats, oils , waxes), to accentuate the higher quality full grain leather. a good example is Chromexcel Horween leather.
    When you have this pair in hand, you'll see is not the same as Jordan 1 Pinnacles. this pair has a thick Tan paint.
    You can also easily recognise from the retail price point of this sneaker. Pinnacles were $400 retail.

    • @brendannelson525
      @brendannelson525 Год назад +1

      Yeah there seems to be a coati g on them ( have a pair put a small amount of conditioner to see what would happen) no color change, so there’s definitely a coating (I suppose with enough wear the color should change) though I suppose with the denim overlay and a thin cut of leather that’s probably how the price was kept so low compared to the pinnacles

    While I appreciate your honest opinion on these sneakers, it seems like you like sneakers that look “distressed” (as you’ve said multiple times). That reminds me of a skateboarder or hippie when they have sneakers/shoes that look beat up or like they need to be replaced. I’m the opposite when it comes to Jordan’s. I want my sneakers to be durable while looking as good condition as possible. Not “distressed”
