Attention to Detail
Details are key to the success of any Jordan 1 replica, and the KickWho Godkiller version of the "Obsidian" gets it right in almost every area.

Nike Air Branding: The Nike Air tongue tag on the Godkiller version is accurately placed, with the correct font size and coloring. The tag’s material and stitching also replicate the retail pair’s look, ensuring authenticity.
