I'm born 1978 and remember every release back in the days. Sadly as a kid you don't collect, you wear them till they fall apart 😁 So I enjoy your videos even more, because they bring back sweet memories. Thanks for your videos, you do an awesome job 🙌🏻
Thanks for the love, I appreciate it. Very true, we did thrash and pitch our kicks haha.. wish I kept all my shoes but I do have my Original Jordan's. Got them for Christmas and saved up to buy when I got in middle/HS.. should've kept EVERYTHING.. oh well, fun hunting down gems these days. Kicks I had and so many models I wish I had! So much good stuff in Nike's catalog its impossible to have it all back in the day.
@@ogorbust1697 You are so right. I did so many mini jobs, safed birthday and Christmas money to afford the newest model. And then the joy when u finally walk in the store to buy them, man that was awesome. I don't wanna sound like an old bitter man, but today is so much different with all this reselling, bots etc. For us it was about the shoes, today it's all about the money. It was much more fun back then and I'm happy I was young in the 80s and 90s 😄
i dont mean to be off topic but does any of you know a way to get back into an Instagram account?? I was stupid lost my login password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me
@Zayne Maxwell thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and im in the hacking process atm. Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
That’s one of the cleanest pairs of black cement 4’s I’ve seen in a long time. Most of the time you see them with the nubuck chipping away. I remember seeing these on sale a few months after the 5’s originally released on sale for 49 bucks at this shoe store called Bootleggers. They had a whole rack of these and the fire reds. What I’d give to be able to go back and buy them all up.
Thanks man, I remember drawing it like yesterday. Tried to do so much I believe we had one hour in class and had to turn it in and wanted it to be huge lol.. hence the unfinished fans at the bottom. Remember wanting to do more sneaker detail but time restraints lol
I'm glad you mentioned the OGs being durabuck..people assume Nike was using real leather on all OGs. We are probably the same age, definitely bring back memories looking at your videos.
I had those, wore them back in the day until they fell apart. It’s good to know that I’ve satisfied that itch and don’t need to get them again with those asking prices.
So glad you made this one bro! These are one of the best looking pairs I have ever seen on here or anywhere. The punk rockers in the Audience was amazing haha.
I was born in 75. I was a teenager when these came out. I actually seen them up close, many times. And i can tell you this, the 1999 version was better then the 89 OGs.
I can tell these are the real deal. My wife bought me the white/red version of these the year before we got married. I can tell they're real because mine also started to deteriorate at the sidewall even though I didn't wear them very much. Just wondering if it would be wise to have the sidewall repaired? They are literally pulling away from the rest of the shoe.
Been wondering about the milk oil spray for awhile , I bought some angelus suede renew but it’s terrible for vintage shoes . Think im gonna use the milk oil spray on my Oompa Loompa dunks! Great video
So you’re telling me this same exact Durabuck material used on these Black Cement 4s was also used on the White Cement and Fire Reds? Is it just the nap textures that are different or is Durabuck just the main raw material processed differently?
This OG Black Cement IV Is In Rare Condition I Didn’t See The “Durabuck” Cracking Only The Midsoles And “Nike Air” Still Visible On The Insoles That’s Crazy How You Never Seen This Very Often Usually Shoe Already Been Cracked And Everything Like Why Nike Can’t Make IVs In OG Colorways Like The 89’ Just Wondering
Thanks man, definitely one of the favorites in my collection. This was the first pair I really wanted and cherish these. Midsoles are going to crack for sure. Ds so insole stamp will remain pristine. The durabuck is in great shape, I do condition it with the mink oil spray to preserve.
Ugh! Why cant they get the shape, cut, or toe box the same on the retros. Why does the toe box look like a steel toe boot rather than a sneaker. Why cant they get the nubuck/durabuck to have the same trim lines. If you made the OGs you should be able to make them again.How can you make one product in 80s but never duplicate again. EVER! I had these in 89 when I was 14, and I had the 3s in 88 and the 2s in 87 and the 1s in 85. Its ifuriating that they cannot make them the same.

It's really cool that you still have that old drawing from when you were a kid. That's just such a neat touch, especially with the shoes

The drawing included the sneakers, just raise the value with Nostalgia.

Thanks man, I appreciate you tuning in.. more durabuck pairs will be featured soon!
Yeah They Were Made In Taiwan It Was The Best Quality In Jordans And Korea Back In The 80’s & The 90’s
I had those, wore them back in the day until they fell apart. It’s good to know that I’ve satisfied that itch and don’t need to get them again with those asking prices.
To me the black/cement 4s and the black/metallic 5s are the 2 most iconic OG Jordan's. Love these!
Definitely both super tough colorways, timeless classics.
That’s True In 89’ & 90’ Plus I Was Born In 1990 I Got The Retro Of 2000 & Still On The Hunt For OG One
Amazing piece 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks buddy
Yea. Srry. I see prejudice here. Can't believe this guy. Man I don't look at color. I look at how we act. Nevermind. I hate to see this
Not you dj
OG or Bust.
So glad you made this one bro! These are one of the best looking pairs I have ever seen on here or anywhere. The punk rockers in the Audience was amazing haha.
Haha thanks man, I appreciate you tuning in!!
I was born in 75. I was a teenager when these came out. I actually seen them up close, many times. And i can tell you this, the 1999 version was better then the 89 OGs.
Shape, materials and MJ wore a pair that looked exactly like these is it for me. Nothing like the original 💯
Damn! I still have my old school OG Flight shirts.
I've telling everyone that the new releases hang tags are not the og hang tangs thanks for this video. Cool drawing Larry bird and Michael Jordan 🔥
I think that particular hang tag started with the Jordan 4
@@JDOE100 Nike used the hard plastic chain hang tag with bo Jackson's as well .
beautiful grail
@@aldrichbickham-w2m thank you, definitely grail status

Yeah, you could have them reglued
Another legendary pick up!! ❤️
Love the channel
🔥 OG CLASSIC ⛽🔥💨 GASUP TO THE MOON ON'EM
The best shoe of all time hands down
First love I begged my folks for lol
Been wondering about the milk oil spray for awhile , I bought some angelus suede renew but it’s terrible for vintage shoes . Think im gonna use the milk oil spray on my Oompa Loompa dunks! Great video
I've used it plenty of times on vintage kicks.. leather, durabuck its all safe with the mink oil spray
@@ogorbust1697 thanks for the reply definitely buying that asap !
That picture you draw in 89 was the blueprint to the Jordan 11 commercial #JumpmanDunkonLarrybird
😆👌🏻
Aww man, something about the OG's 🔥
So you’re telling me this same exact Durabuck material used on these Black Cement 4s was also used on the White Cement and Fire Reds? Is it just the nap textures that are different or is Durabuck just the main raw material processed differently?
Yep same durabuck just black or white. Og military 4 was the only colorway made with leather.
Damn. What a gem.
🙌🏻🙏🏻
Love the OG poster
Hanging on the wall right now 😉
Thats a terrible cousin lets be honest here lol.I can always appreciate the extras you include with the sneakers.
🤣 Man.. we had some good times. Thanks Zane!
Ya I’m gna try that white pencil trick love the lines
It really makes a world of a difference.
Love em
🙌🏻🙏🏻
So, it's not a good idea if one decides to mid sole swap the 89?
You could I just like to keep original until they aren't presentable anymore. When dust I'll swap
How much would you say these are worth? I know someone who has a pair with box and receipt
Depends if DS etc
Im looking at my 2024 cement 4s and they definitely not the exact design the spacing is off on sitching and the sizes on the features are smaller
Definitely not og cut, check out my video comparison OG VS 24, posted when they released
How’d you go about outlining the 2019s?
Look at my video library, one is dedicated to just that.
@@ogorbust1697 yea came across it after I commented lol great videos for younger people like myself though!

Don't know why Nike can't get the retro right
Strategy
I had these in 89. I was a baller. Cleaned them with windex. Believe or not. Lol
What a comment! 😡. Not even a ty. It's aight. God bless your soul!
They Find Everything To Screw The OG Colorways & Models But Good Thing That I’m Not Wasting Money On The Retros
nubuck is an actual leather, durabuck is fully synthetic, innaccurate to say its even close to the same thing
Durabuck synthetic yes, simulates the feel and look of nubuck.
Must’ve sucked to be a pistons fan back then.
⚫️🔴🔥
Detroit sucks but yet beat them two years in a row 😂Detroit made Jordan step his game up
Definitely a major hurdle, once we got past the pistons I knew we could win it all
Detroit Sucks HAHA! You Chitown thru and thru!
Yeah man lol Chicago bulls or bust. It's in my DNA, grew up in Chicagoland area, no apologies 😂
