    Am I the only person on earth who appreciated the folded tongue? It gave it character and made it more recognizable. Also. I almost like this shoe as much as the union AJ1. To me, this is sneaker of the year.

      I feel the same way but only for the Guava color way. I have both and the Noir looks better with an unfolded tongue. Guess that makes two of us lol.

    • @jaseallenson316
      @jaseallenson316 3 роки тому +1

      I think the tongue is horrible. The rest of the shoe is so unique, there was no reason to take it further. The yellow stitching couldve been used around the jordan patch on a r3gular tongue or for where the wing is stitched on. Wouldve made the yellow stitching more visable and wouldve made it flames imo.
