Love this reimagined release, can’t believe so many people didn’t like it, I get nothing but compliments in person, I think this is a solid 9/10x materials feel great, foot feels comfortable to walk in and color way as always is impeccable, this will age gracefully in my opinion.

[@jmoore5014]

Buckets made a valid point. It's like once a shoe is considered a grail how do you top it??? You can't so the only other option is to compliment it or pay homage to it. 2023 has been a great year to cop some cool stuff for or under retail. I love it!!

[@HeyWhatsupKev]

exactly. And as someone who has the royals, i just cant get myself to grab the A- version of them. I love the OG royals so much that i feel like i would wear these LESS if that makes any sense. Still a beautiful shoe regardless. If you missed on the OG royals, these are a MUST HAVE.

[@bollocks2usernames]

Managed to double up at discount - and what’s more, because they were sitting I got a look at several pairs and picked the best two pairs. They are very nice and I suspect that those peeps that slept may regret it down the road - especially when J1s are hyped again (although the icons never go out of style).

[@Andrew77MUFC]

Obviously i like the colorway (an iconic OG AJ1 colorway) but this version i just don't need, already passed when given EA. My '17 leather pair def worn but not in horrible condition and still clean up well & in the rotation. Plus suede can be a pain to clean / keep clean and maintain , can even warp over time & wear. Not super durable either. Thats a headache which i tend to avoid when i can. Even though i like some more than others , overall i just prefer clean close to OG over these reimagined versions. And personally i like to keep it simple with AJ1s with the regular leather often used rather than patent or suede etc.

[@Ronny-Swanton]

Valid point, but this is great for people that are new to the shoe game and don’t have the ‘17 Royal

[@Andrew77MUFC]

@@Ronny-Swanton absolutely , i do like them & those who want these should very much go after them. Though if they are "new to the shoe game" i hope they keep in mind the fragility , durability concerns and upkeep aspects with suede. Def a high maintenance material. Personally even though i don't really buy resale im considering grabbing another '17 pair if the AJ1 prices continue to dip as they seem to be across the board (a few exceptions aside). Especially as DS AJ1s are wearable for quite a long time compared to other Jordan retros. But those who want these Reimagined Royals should go after them and should be not a tough cop. When i got EA they were sitting in pretty much all sizes. Even got a reminder a few hours later to buy and they were still available in basically every size.

[@Timo-iq6ry]

Like Buckets said “no shoe exists in a vacuum “. Dropping them in between the cherry 12s and the Gratitude 11s is a factor as well.

[@MisterYewToob]

I personally love these. I like that they kept the same color blocking and really only changed the material and I must say I prefer suede/nubuck over the Jordan 1 releases that go the patent leather route.

I'm a purist for sure but I'm liking the reimagined line just to mix things up a little and not just give us they same ol retries over and over again. It could of been a disaster but their doing it with great success. I'm curious what they'll do with the Bred 1s cuz that's def my favorite OG 1 colorway.

These things are badass! i got a pair pre-release and decided I was keeping them when I opened the box. I was amazed at the quality and the color pop and could not resist.

[@durtysouth85]

[@Joose]

People are going to wish they got these for/under retail in the future. They got the toe box shape so much more "correct" than the 2017s. Easily one of the most comfort AJ1 Highs in recent years.

[@JoshTolbert]

I don’t really wear blue especially shoes. I had to have these. I love the way the blue pops against the black. Being all suede style materials just makes it pop that much harder. People will regret sleeping on these for sure.

They’re just fresh. 99% of people don’t even know what the OG should be like anyway. Not that it matters what other people think but it’s an objective testament to the dopeness of the shoe.

[@ryanshoufer6805]

The reimagined thing is a very original idea. In my opinion, it didnt work on the Lost and Found’s or the 3’s the way every said it did. It was a different effect. This though “reimagined Royal 1” is an ACE in the hole. The completely suede upper makes this sneaker so original and interesting because the world of Suede 1’s high or low was always only tailored to Dunk SB’s. These are an instant A+. Easily
