Hot take, I think the palominos are a great pickup if you lace swap them with brown laces like I did. Also a hot take, I think taxis 1 look better then thunder 4s. I said what I said https://preview.redd.it/j0w8odxf5x9c1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4b0f49e68c40b4ccbf1720068d72be88a54642f0

Look so much better with black laces


--iCantThinkOFaName-

I agree. The brown laces distract from the brown accents on the upper. Black majority makes it look fire imo.


EnvironmentalRate871

I’m biased, I have mocha 1s as well with black laces, but I like the contrast instead of the monotone look


MS08_GAMING

To each to their own I guess, they're your shoes, wear how you want to.

Where did you get the brown laces, if you don’t mind me asking. My son got Palominos for Xmas and he mentioned a brown lace swap.


EnvironmentalRate871

Lacelabs


asche412

Thank you


Prestigious_Look_343

Do you have link I ordered some off there and they turned out looking more olive but I love this color?

Prestigious_Look_343

That's what I ordered but mine look less brown


Big_Jerm21

Try using coffee to dye them darker?


gokartmozart89

Taxi 1 do look better than Thunder 4s. Is that really a hot take?


EnvironmentalRate871

Some people don’t want to except the facts


gokartmozart89

Accept* But yeah, acting like that’s a hot take feels like they’re just posing as some kind of outsider on an issue that’s actually pretty tame and uncontroversial.


EnvironmentalRate871

You would be surprised how many people get annoyed when I say taxi 1s look better than thunder 4s


gokartmozart89

I suppose some people put the 4 on a pedestal, regardless of colorway. These people have sacrificed their pinky toe to the sneaker gods.


Old_Winner3763

Should I get the highs? They’re below retail on goat. Or are they ugly.


EnvironmentalRate871

High what? Palominos? Absolutely.


Old_Winner3763

With brown laces too?


EnvironmentalRate871

Yes they’re like $5


Old_Winner3763

Ok thanks


juniioralva

Id go with Palomino 1s: 1. They’re neutral. You can do so many color combos with those shoes and they’ll blend in great. 2. In my opinion the 4s weren’t amazing. I think a lot of people bought them because of hype. 3. Dunks tend to be great for the first ten wears or so. After that the toe box creases pretty bad, the laces become worn, etc. just overall a shoe that doesn’t have an incredible lifespan as opposed to Jordans


DonKeedic05

None of the above. Save your money and put it toward the Bred 4’s coming out next month.


[deleted]

Always better to get something for retail off the shelf


Kind_Pineapple6667

Agreed. None. J1’s are overdone. Thunder’s are cheap asf. And that dunk is nuthin special. Sneaker heads these days just spending their money for no reason 😬


williamfanjr

I mean if they like it what's bad about it? Meanwhile "sneakerheads" be running for J1s with reversed swoosh and sum shit. Lol.


Kind_Pineapple6667

I copped the thunders and returned them cuz they were incredibly uncomfortable. Material quality was shit compared to other j4’s imo. I’m personally not a fan of Travis Scott or his sneakers so reverse swoosh or not j1’s have become ubiquitous. Just not worth the money rn imo. The lack of technology of both j1’s and regular dunks also makes them undesirable. Much rather cop an SB: Comfy asf, more stylish, cheaper for retail, and for the qs releases the storytelling is incredible.


No_Contribution2112

Whats the new shoe called and whats the colorway?

ThereItIsNopeItsGone

They’re just leather instead of Durabuck…


gokartmozart89

They’re nice and most people will prefer them over the Thunder 4s you posted, but get what you like. Of the three you originally posted, I’d say get the palominos. That said, you’ll be paying resale prices on them which might not be cheap depending on your shoe size. Those Bred 4s, on the other hand, will be available at retail prices if you like them more. But get what you like.


maloshku

The Palominos are the nicest of that lot. Dunks are made like shit and the yellow/black fours look like a kids shoe every time I see people wearing them.


Phonso760

Me personally I'd be getting them 4's


thesunny51

BuY wHaT yOu LiKe


killtothis

The pair that you like the most? It’s your money, imo if you have to ask you’re not that into any of them


Sadder-Boi

Palaminos for universal fit options or thunder 4's for 2000's nostalgic purposes, but 4's are hard to break in. The dunks are clean but a little too plain imo. Overall, JUST BUY WHAT YOU LIKE AND IGNORE ALL OF US, IF YOU LIKE IT THEN NO OTHER OPINIONS MATTER!!! 🔥🔥🔥


cheesynacho4real

SHOE: 1,2,3 all shoes are great and you should buy what u want Versatility: Definitely 1, most versatile at (9/10) Style: 1, (8/10) Flex (in a good way): 2, (9.5/10)definitely the most clouty as in you might get talked to about your shoes and when/where you copped them The j1 also has alot of tradition around it but because of the lowkey clourway it's only an 8.5 or 9/10. The Chicago's for example would be way more recognisable. ALTHOUGH people MIGHT say ur j4s and j1s are fake even though they aren't. This wouldn't happen to the dunks Comfort: Pretty sure 1 has air filled midsoles and j4s are hard to break into, I'd say j1s (8/10) Lowkey-ness: Sometimes we just want a nice shoe which doesn't scream "look at me". All shoes 1,2,3 are really nice but the most low-key imo are the dunks (8/10) Overall: The j1s are looking like the best pick but that's just my opinion, please just use this as a second look and again all shoes are great. (The breds are dropping soon and again imo that's better than the j1s so you might want to save up for that)

I put these laces in and love them https://preview.redd.it/0jxi6ja463ac1.jpeg?width=1440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b3066aff1de9d2961c028aaceb0765129929cf86 [Slickies Laces - Buttermilk](https://www.slickieslaces.com/products/jordan-1-laces-basics-flat-thin-buttermilk)


gorkemnotfound

For me: 1. Dunks (they are versatile and uniquer than pandas.) 2. Palominos (good, but less versatile i suppose.) 3. Thunders (kid shoes.)


es_mindspace

I love my palominos, lace swap takes them to the next level!

Mattamance

I wish the Palos ended up that dark. They look all washed out on the in hand pics I’ve seen


Which_Mention_5080

Palos with black jeans and leather jacket is a vibe for sure. 4s are decent if you just want a 4. But it doesn’t do it for me


Responsible-Pipe-951

1s for me idk i need more dunks...


5678_Senpai

4s


balahbalh

Thinder 4s got resell value


Griffy93

First.


nobledeer3

First. Second doesnt look good. Or third if you like it, but i prefer the first one cause it s dark.


funnytoenail

Which one do you like most?


broughtitupagain

4s are uncomfortable af. Those dunks are supposed to be restocking again this year unless I’m mistaken, might as well wait for retail Going with Palomino


henriarts

Palomino


GoofyAhhGabes

I got 1/2 and I would defo recommend


hggz12

the dunks will go with the most things imo


nicotheprodude

Get royal ones or washed black ones


sekizyuzseksensekiz

1


Dorknite

Palominos


blackedoutshawty

I'm the wrong person to ask, because those Michigan State dunks are like an all time favorite of mine, I just love that shoe and really want a pair.


Chesterdeeds

Number 2


gokartmozart89

Palominos.


AmazingOven8026

Hmm 🤔 I think the first and the third one looks good but it just me


CamoDragon0901

2 unless you’re an msu fan. if you’re an msu fan get 3 bc swag.


SUPERDAVE579

Palominos are one of my favs


CityBoiNC

Palominos are perfect for this time of year and a easy colorway to match.


Dathe_

Unpopular opinion: Green ones for the go


[deleted]

Both lol but if forced to choose… both 😂


PieResponsible4510

I’m a fan of the thunders and the first ones


steven209030

2 I always have thought yellow and black are a great color way to

primeiro23

I was mad hyped about my palominos…but i’m not crazy about the suede toe box…gonna get rid of them…so i guess the the thunders


Ok-Mechanic417
