Snobs will always try to impress the other snobs, cause no one else cares really... I would love to see the AJ1 High collection of everyone who sais Mids are trash.
That’s crazy he played in mids , and everyone seems to hate mids lol . I was looking at old pictures of Jordan and I did recall when I was a young teen fan in the 80’s he didn’t like high tops . He always played in mids if some sorts. Very cool video. I wish I still had my original pair from 85 . Unfortunately skateboarding was its fate on the Brooklyn banks lol
They aren't real mids. They're low highs. The cut is still the high cut, not the mid cut. Even modern day highs are different heights when placed next to each other.
Dude thank god u started a TH-cam channel. I thought after closing the shoeseum ur collection wouldn’t see the light of day again. Please keep pumping these vids out man. The history needs to be preserved
This is legit amazing! Those two pairs of shoes are literally pieces of sneaker and sports history. It’s comparable to what people will think of the LeBron 1’s in 15-20 years, or Ronaldinho’s Tiempo boots, this is truly amazing
I sold these exact shoes back then. I remember when we received them and immediately there was some sort of aura around them! I think we sold them at 150$ CDN, which was around 120 US at the time. Made 6$ an hour or so. Should have borrowed money and bought 5 pairs! But nobody can predict the future!
Impossible back in this era players would wear the shoes as long as possible. Especially Jordan in his early years.. he probably wore these for at least 14 games before he gave them up.
I have a pair of chicago ones og with serial number 850204 TY1 in size 12, in good condition , i believe they are the first edition were made, sorry for my english! Thank you very much for the video!

Great comparison. I just realized that pre-remastered AJ1s looks like the game worn AJ1s, such as the Barons. And the post-remastered modern AJ1s such as the Bred Toes look like the 85 retails.
So this is how people treat a 10k pair of deadstock? I was expecting each shoe to be wrapped with the box in a protector box. Weird watching different people and how they handle their shoes.
This guy has touched ample amounts of valuable shoes we will never even come close to seeing. This is normal for him. Lol. But I get what you saying, I'm cautious with my $200 retail retros, I'd be super afraid to disturb some true OG or even game worn PE pairs..
I own a pair of the OG 85' breds and the leather is also pretty butter after worn a bit. They are worn but in great condition considering that are 30+ years old. I think the fact that the DS pair feel stiffer or not as plush is because of this.
I dont know about in 1985 but those stitching lines vary. I have a pair where all 4 are different on each side. I bet they varied in 85 too. Thats something they just dont get consistent these days for sure
I already have a running list my man. It’s not complete but maybe you can help me. We should be able to photo match the shoes like many do on auction sites.
Yes Jordan wore the mids ...they started selling the lows & highs to the public first . 🖕🏾 the mid haters they just followers that can’t lead their own path🤷🏾♂️
those mids of 1985 the p.e that mj wore had a nike swoosh and quality looked og meanwhile today's mids has the weird looking jumpman and are trash 🗑 but you know like what you like .
They aren't real mids. They're low highs. The cut is still the high cut, not the mid cut. Even modern day highs are different heights when placed next to each other.
This videos shows all OG Jordan's are all trash compared to PEs. Crazy !!!! Certain gatekeeper sneakerhead on TH-cam not you talk about the quality after this video all lies. Excellent video once again . You are the man !! I love that you are wearing gloves. I haven't seen anyone wear gloves showing sneakers for about 10 years
Here is the video of the guy wearing gloves showing sneakers. I know I've watched alot of sneakers videos. Enjoy th-cam.com/video/djZX-GcoyOg/w-d-xo.html
Two thoughts on what could cause the apparent difference in height between the pairs. First, the used pair are very creased just above the swoosh. The unworn pair are not. Second, are they even the same size?
How come everytime i see an OG one the toebox looks to have never been stuffed and the laces are left so tight so as to distort the shoe over years of sitting? Why don't people wanna prevent the shoe from losing shape?
They aren't real mids. They're low highs. The cut is still the high cut, not the mid cut. Even modern day highs are different heights when placed next to each other.
My question is since these have tons of wear on them, when did Mike start to wear a brand new pair every game ? I see a lot of MJ game worn PEs and they all look beat up as if he wore them multiple games.
another amazing review. i think the numbering didn't start until the air jordan 12. sneaker heads just go with hype and don't actually have their own opinions. MJ always preferred mids over highs but the sneaker world either doesn't remember or are too young to know. even after MJ not really being into the 1s and 2s one of the things that soId MJ on staying with nike was that the 4s were a mid. sneaker heads complain about the same stuff constantly like nike air, highs, want a rare color of shoe but when they release them to the public they sit cause sneaker heads didn't know that was a PE at one point. i love sneakers but wiII never be a sneaker head, i got my own opinion and buy what i like. hope aII is good with you Jordan and you are doing weII during these times.
I defend mids a lot of times from bashers but now im defending the highs. Y'all bashing the highs for not being the actual p.e's but if you check the difference between p.e. and mids there is a huge difference. The swoosh is alot lower and the heel tab is extremely short, which in my opinion what makes the mids undesirable to most eyes. The pe is a cropped top highs rather than an actually different shoe like the mids. If you put this next to the retail mids you'll know that this is still higher than mids.
@@danielsuriel2813 so why hasn’t Jordan Brand done a re release of the Legendary 1 Mid, why do they just throw them in stores with no historical background like how they do EVERY RE RELEASE.
Small details that make the total difference, I won't even talk about the detail of the barrel being rounded, very strange and the logo being smaller, does not have the characteristics of the original label of 1985 ...
They aren't real mids. They're low highs. The cut is still the high cut, not the mid cut. Even modern day highs are different heights when placed next to each other.
I like the retro versions, but they are not worth the price for supply and demand, close to the original 1985 and 1994, the only extremely similar ones, not the 2013 and 2015 versions, are beautiful but
All these hard-core sneaker snobs out there hating on AJ1 mids, and it turns out Jordan was actually playing in mids. That's rich.
annnnnnd mids are still trash
@@hiphopisart6165 thank you for saying this my friend
If only the mids had the colorways the highs had. I like mid and high
Snobs will always try to impress the other snobs, cause no one else cares really... I would love to see the AJ1 High collection of everyone who sais Mids are trash.

Your profile picture makes it even better
DJ Wakademiks funniest shit I’ve see all year
Wait seriously
He scored 63 points against the celtics on1986 he wore the chicago 1’s with red laces💯
The ones he wore against Boston when he scored 63 had Dunk soles though.
@@berlingray8058 they are PES
The 1.5s
those are two absolute grails!
I find it funny how everyone thinks that hi’s are OG when it is really mid tops that are the true OG shoes!
These aren't like the mids you get now days.
Facts
Henry DeGroff i was thinking that. if the new mids were like the OGs then they’d be better
The mids from today are made differently, the lace holes are way different
Henry DeGroff nah fam they’re still mids LOL
That’s crazy he played in mids , and everyone seems to hate mids lol . I was looking at old pictures of Jordan and I did recall when I was a young teen fan in the 80’s he didn’t like high tops . He always played in mids if some sorts. Very cool video. I wish I still had my original pair from 85 . Unfortunately skateboarding was its fate on the Brooklyn banks lol
Dope!!.yea i was gona say growing up highs were kinda weak.now a days its all about highs

Dame you selling them .....but mad respect for wearing the gloves
He wore mids, my favs! To all the sneaker snobs...oh snap!

please do that research and find the game he played in these! make a cool video out of it!!!!!!
No, lets research and clone a few jordans for the dream team. XD

Paco Sancho How much money would you sell em for?
@@julianmoya4147 they are like 13k i think
i dont know if you did hit this,but the swooshes on the PEs are alot larger then the retails
Probably for advertising
The Bigger swoosh looks a lot better imo
@@jestevez4294 i really gotta agree with you, i wish they made the retail version like them.
That's one thing I never hear anyone noticing or talking about is how on all the OG 1's the swoosh is bigger than all of the retro's swoosh.
do you think it could be that the same size swoosh was used on both shoes? the swoosh would look bigger on a mid vs. a hi.
Who's here after he sold them for 560K
I can’t believe I stumbled onto his channel watching random shoe videos.
Wow, that deadstock pair of OG AJ1s are perfect! 🤤🤤😳
The mids are gorgeous! Hopefully they release a mid top in these colours, too. Thanks for sharing your video to us.
They aren't real mids. They're low highs. The cut is still the high cut, not the mid cut. Even modern day highs are different heights when placed next to each other.
Amazing Nike history there Jordan . Thanks for sharing your knowledge and love for Nike with us all.
This is really dope. Thanks for sharing.
Here after reading an article that you sold them for $560,000
Jeeeeeez
I must say I am glad you started back up making videos. You truly take a unique look at these shoes we have come to love.
Great comparison. I just realized that pre-remastered AJ1s looks like the game worn AJ1s, such as the Barons. And the post-remastered modern AJ1s such as the Bred Toes look like the 85 retails.
Hypebeasts that hate on mids for no reason will say it’s fake
I need more videos from you Geller, ASAP!!!! love everything about you!!!
So this is how people treat a 10k pair of deadstock? I was expecting each shoe to be wrapped with the box in a protector box. Weird watching different people and how they handle their shoes.
thedeafgenius probably some show seller who has all types of shoes stored on top of each other in boxes 🤷🏻♂️ most likely an old head reseller

I‘m shure you find some DNA of Isiah Thomas in the cracks of the worn shoe 😂
Very cool concept! Need more of these for sure bro I'd watch em all. Keep up the good work
I wonder where that Air Jordan 1 w Nike Dunk midsole sample is at? He wore those in 86 Playoffs vs Boston I believe. Amazing
Jordan 1.5?
They were airships
Jordan Geller
Do you know how this retail release pair was kept so fresh? So many years later, I've rarely seen any look this phenomenal.
you love what you do and you love sneakers, I appreciate you
It looked like Michael had 2 left feet PE’s at the beginning 😂
I already have a running list my man. It’s not complete but maybe you can help me. We should be able to photo match the shoes like many do on auction sites.
He wore two different pairs with red laces a couple of times one was against the Celtics, But they had a different sole / midsole.
MJO23DAN I would absolutely love that!
colab video? ***praying hands emoji***
Such a dope video brother, keep it up
i dont know why but this video was relaxing

Thank you for buying countless Nike shoes/merch instead of 5 pairs of designer shoes
I got a fresh pair of breds I bought in 86 that I recently started wearing
Does anyone remember the kid sizes said Sky Jordan?
I seen baby AJ1’s at ShoePalace recently and they say Sky Jordans
"White black and red Jordan 1 high" 😂😂😂😂
Folks will never look at Mids the same way again! I’m amazed that dead stock mint pair was only £10k, I thought they’d go for more.
exellent thank you
So essentially the 2001 bred, and the blue royals are close to mj's PE since they are cut like a mid top, but have 9 holes for laces like a hi top.
I hope one day they bring back the 85 cut jordans
First love the shoes bro
I'm curious, did you ever tie your game worn pair to any actual games?
How come everytime i see an OG one the toebox looks to have never been stuffed and the laces are left so tight so as to distort the shoe over years of sitting? Why don't people wanna prevent the shoe from losing shape?
What about the new shoe smell, does it have the new shoe smell? Thats the question...
Wouldn’t be surprised if it does hell the shoe is probably better made then the ones Nike releases now
Mids lows and highs bby .. 💯
Mids have 8 shoelace holes and highs have 9. The mids in this video have 9, so wouldn’t they be considered a high?
No

Hi jordan. Could i ask. Were all mj game worn pe 1’s from the 1985 season all mid tops?
None of them are Mid top they all are Jordan 1 Hi PE

the real lost and found
I bet the collar wouldn't Crack if they had been worn once every few years and vacuum sealed.
then it wouldnt be deadstock anymore
Vice no shit...
so were jordan 1 mids never realesed to the public?
The game wore pair has a shrunk look to the them almost like AJ 1 mid...keep the videos coming...plz do ah penny 1 and 2 og vid #Geller thegoat
brillant video
This would go well over 20 these days right?
Did Jordan have 2 left feet?
What foot was Jordan wearing a 13 1/2? And he wore a 13 on the other?
Did anyone ever think of doing a grading company for sneakers like psa does for cards?? 🧐
Does a on foot for both

Who thought the name athletes foot was a good name...
