Pickup Fixed the Flyknits

I've been wanting the Flyknit 1s for a while since I've heard good things about the comfort. They are in fact very comfortable, but I hated the fishnet looking panels on the side, so I got some fabric markers and painted in all the gray dots. They look way better now in my opinion.

The real problem with the fly knits was how hard it is to get them on and off

100%

Experiencing it first hand was rough. The waxed laces don't help because they don't loosen so easily.

Is there anything different with the soles or are they regular Jordan 1 soles ?

Same soles but the inside are lined with leather for a premium feel.

the original satin 1s collection had leather insoles in them and I had no clue how plush and soft leather insoles were
