The shape of the OG VII is a thing of beauty. While these VII are better than the 2002, I don't understand why they continue to make the retros so bulky. Maybe it's because ppl used to complain about Nike being too narrow for them, but 100% of retros now are like the chunky uncoordinated friend of the OG.

Hoping you can help me out.. I recently grabbed a pair of the 1992 Hare 7s and I'm seeing a few inconsistencies on my pair. I have been doing research on them for a couple days now and I am a sneaker reseller so I do have some knowledge over mainly Jordans overall and older pairs but I'm not super knowledgeable on the OG pairs before 2000. So for one my size tag says made in Korea but I read an article from Sole Collector saying some pairs also said they were made in Korea but most of them were made in Taiwan and my pair also has 3 holes at the collar. They are beat so there's some things I can't fully check just because I know some things on the shoes can look different now from the wear over the year and things like that. But I'm really just not sure if maybe I have a b grade pair or if they are fake because to my understanding for the older Jordan's they didn't make fakes as much and they were easier to tell apart. So I'm thinking for the OG Jordans there probably weren't if at all many fakes that looked anything close to how the originals look but I know I could be wrong. I've been in touch with the person I got my Hare 7s from and I am able to get my money back, but I just don't want to pass on them without being sure. My Instagram is @theshoeslanger I'll also be messaging you on there and sending you pics, I appreciate whatever knowledge you're able to drop to help with this matter but I understand if you don't.

I might be wrong but I don't think the heel tab is made to look like a "7" because Nike didn't number the j's til the 13's (OG's) .. The 12's were the last shoes to have any Nike branding including the box.. If I remember correctly, the bred 13's were the first to have a Roman numeral assigned to the box, the 1998 cherry 13's just said "air Jordan" not sure about the HGG. Back in the 90's we just called jordans by the year and color. Nike never called them 7's til retros came out. so I think it was just a coincidence the heel tab resembles a "7"
@mjo23dan9 жыл бұрын
+Rustishack206 Nah the 12's have roman numerals on their black and red Nike boxes. Everything else you state is correct. Definitely a coincidence with the 7 on the back but that's on Tinker to make that call since he was the lead designer.

Great vid. Thought I'd let you know just in case you didn't know. I heard that all of the factories that produced the OGs are closed down.

Still the hares probably have to be the best release this year IMO.

My bead dead stock OG hare 7s swede has slightly yellowed due to age. They still do look nice. I would wear them but they've crumbled. The outside of the midsole is solid but the inside crumbled. A great way to find out whether if your pair had crumbled is by applying pressure to the center of the outsole. Then you will know whether if they're wearable.

I was wondering if you knew anything about the crumbling on OG 7s and how to fix it. I have an OG pair of the Olympics and the uppers separated, and the inside area where the cushioning like the air units are stored and all that crumbled, but the outside "shell" is fine. Since the air units crumbled I can't see what type I need to replace it. Do you know what the tech was on the cushion setup on OG 7s, and is there any way to replace it? I'm guessing it would need a type of sole swap, but how would you swap the air units and what holds them, and how would the fitment be? Thanks!
@mjo23dan8 жыл бұрын
+Cyrus Irani Honestly wouldn't bother salvaging the OG midsole and with a new air unit. Those are polyurethane midsoles that will eventually need to be swapped. If you're going to swap do it with a newer midsole. However, you will find that newer midsoles will need slight modification in order to have a proper fit. There are a couple vids on youtube that can guide you through a successful midsole swap on a Jordan 7.
@kingcyrvs8 жыл бұрын
+MJO23DAN I really like the look on the original midsole like the outer shell and I wanna keep that and thats why I wanna do the swap with just the units and all. I'll look up midsole swaps for Jordan 7s, and do you know any other shoes that have the same tech as original Jordan 7s that I could use as donors?? And I've been looking I can't find any vids on Jordan 7 soleswaps with a step by step process like that
@mjo23dan8 жыл бұрын
+Cyrus Irani I believe the original issues encapsulated air. Many of the retros today are top loaded air soles so you're going to run into problems looking for a similar type of setup. It's honestly not worth using the same midsole unless you plan to use as a strict display piece because OG midsoles will not hold up if you're planning to wear them. All that restoration will be thrown out the window. If you do want to use as a display piece, you can find air units from other Jordan 7s (since top loaded) and pull from them and fill the OG midsole as best you can.
@kingcyrvs8 жыл бұрын
+MJO23DAN Ok are you saying that using donors from newer models that have the same type of air-unit setup as the OG 7s that those wouldn't hold up either?? And I'm planning on using these as a display/collection piece since these are my favorite shoes and they are old so I wouldn't wanna ruin them. The crumbling is just a mess lol that I wanna fix.
@mjo23dan8 жыл бұрын
+Cyrus Irani No. Newer models should be top loaded air and older is encapsulated. I'm not sure if you know the difference. I guess if you clean out the OG midsole you should have a cavity that allows you to set an air unit in it. I'm not sure what the purpose of it would serve though if you're only using it as a display piece. You might as well just stuff the cavity of the old midsole with foam insoles or just do a full midsole swap.

MJO23DAN have no issue with the video length in and of itself or the look at the small details, only the lack of an overview of the overall shape to go along with it. I feel like its a basic thing and the most pronounced visual/structural differnece between them. Does this retro 7 still feature more "bulk" through the body like past retro 7's when compared to the OGs? Do the size and shape of the grey panels still differ? I mean I can kinda see that these differences are still present from what I can glean here and there, but it would be nice if the comparison devoted some time to it complete with a side by side view of each shoe's profile. Incidentally, Complex/Sole Collector does have a video on youtube showing most of these differences between the 2015 and 1992.
