    III White Cement, they have been dubbed 88's now
    XI Space Jams
    XI Concord
    XIII Chutney
    VI Black Infrared
    XII Taxi
    I Black Toe
    XX3 Old Love
    I Banned OG

    Honorable mentions are:

    And something that might be blasphemous to some but I love the Bragging Rights series... Not my pic.

    A lot of classics on your list. Only one that seems to not fit is the Chutney 13s, what’s your story with those.

    So Jordan never wore the Chutneys but it IS an OG colorway.  I was sooooo happy when they retrod them recently.  I was always a big fan of them.

    Cool, I like them also. Was able to pick them up at an outlet not to long ago. They were just the "which one of these is not like the other" on your list. You looking forward to 2019 "the year of the 4"?

    Nope.  The IV actually doesn't do it for me.  I am looking forward to the Concord XI on Christmas though.

    Some of my other favs of J's that I have never been able to pick up for a decent price...  I give you the Jordan VII Obsidian and Filbert.

    Yeah I screwed up...  I should have pounced when they first came out.  I figured they would drop in price but for whatever reason they never did.  Too rare I guess?

    Did you pick up the Fresh Prince Grape Vs? I thought about it, but the no laces were kinda gimmicky for me. Although I have seen the customs being done for laces.. so I might pick these up at some point. They are done perfect (NA on the back, material).
