    My friend got these hightops back in 87, balled all year in them, then in 88 he was mowing the lawn in them. In the end these look like those lol.

    Heritage, history, and nostalgia define what Jordan brand means to so many of us and this sneaker captures that perfectly. The aged, crumbling sole, the dream of getting MJ's signature on the side, the classic packaging with its own Off-White spin...that's design work right there.
    And maybe the most amazing thing about it is the way that it brought interest back to the always under appreciated Jordan 2. Virgil's last gift to us was reviving one of the classics. He will truly be missed.

    Was able to hit on the black pair. Leather is amazing. Love all the touches and packaging. I wonder if they come in individual zip lock bags because collectors like to preserve them from crumbling over time? Wish I had the white pair. Virgil was big on museums and art objects as artifacts, so the aesthetic makes sense. What a great last gift to the world. "Virgil was here." 🙏🏾

    as for the off white zip tie, it started on the clothes, meant to mimic a store security tag and you were supposed to cut it off. so i’m guessing he just carried it over to the sneakers cause it became a signature of the brand

    What a great video, finally seeing someone genuinely excited for 2's for all the right reasons.
    I do wonder though, since the molds to the original 1986 AJ2 were lost/destroyed, and they had to rebuild them from scratch, is there a chance that they just based them off of an existing pair of AJ3s? I feel as if the "silhouette" for retro 2's and retro 3's are exactly the same, and that's how we ended up with a boxy toebox for the 2 as well as the missing eyelets before they started getting them right. Of course, this was prior to 3D printing and computer scanning, so that's my theory on how the retro 2 ended up looking so different than the original pair over time.

    Man 2s hold a special place in my heart 1 because when I was very young before getting into shoes and ball I saw my cousins uncle once and he was wearing the original white and red with black 2s and I just loved them and also because around early 2000 when the low top came out in the white and blue color way I saw my brother in law with them and at this point I was already in middle school and knew a little bit about shoes but also knew what Jordan was because that was the shoe to have anything Jordan lol and I asked my mom to take me to the mall and even thoo she said ok but we not buying anything and I agreed y’all know that shit was a lie and in my head I was getting them no matter what and of course at first she said no until I started crying and turned into a sad brat because I knew she would give in and she ended up getting them for me but man I just loved them so much. Before y’all kill me I am glad to say I am. O,longer a brat or ask my mom for things. Lol. I am 29 about to turn 30. Lol ✌️. Happy to hear this will be year of 2s and looking forward to it.

Normally tend to like og colorways better but as the black pair might have been what Virgil liked best colorwise(as he was probably free to put any color on these as he pleased) makes them extra special in my opinion.

On to the off white ones, I don't like the black and royal but I like the white and red. I really like the concept and the only think that I dislike is all the off white branding text.

    I like the concept of these but I don't like lows. The midsole is the most interesting part and I would have loved to see a pair of 7s with similar treatment, semi transparent ripstop materials like the 5s on the side panels, and the extra lacing system from the dunks- all tied up in an aged Cardinal colorway.
    Hope people who got these enjoy them. They're interesting, even if they're not fully my cup of tea.
