For what they are (a 25th anniversary of My Adidas) they are perfect. I love the gold rope lace jewel, it's a nice touch and represents arguably the first "bling" in hip hop all those years ago. The problem is, after the 35th anniversary edition, there isn't really that much difference between these and those. But yes, I agree they are boring and bland, but so were the originals RUN DMC wore and it's a homage to them/My Adidas.
The shoe itself doesn't represent the price tag, agreed, but it's the fact there's only 1986 of them out there that justifies the price tag.
Unfortunately for me, I don't have the 35th or these so maybe I'm a bit biased towards them and RUN DMC. Been a 39 year old RUN DMC are gods and legends to me so hopefully one day I will have a pair of one or the other.
