J1s are my favorite silhouette. I understand they’re not everyone’s cup of tea, but as you can see, I absolutely adore them.
I’m still on the hunt for several pairs I missed out on, such as the OW Chicago, 2015 Chicago, L&Fs, Breds, OG Royal, Mocha, LA to Chicago, UNC, Unions Black & Blue toe, and Travis Mocha & Fragment.
The Off-Whites are laced with replacement laces, but I also have the originals. I’m aware that the lettering and placement are off.
Oh, I’m definitely adding the OG. I believe I mentioned it in my caption.
The new material is fine as they don’t normally crease like leather pairs do. However, creases overall don’t bother me as I find the beauty of them as part of the aging process.
The only worry I have with the nubuck/suede material is staining from oil-based products. Otherwise I love that pair.
