my holy grail is the original jordan 5 grapes from 1990 with nike air on the heel....i know there's the fresh princes but they dont have lace holes which is ridiculous. hopefully we can get a proper release in the future.
Do you wear your shoes or do you just collect them to put in the Shoezeum? Also great video, all of your videos are super interesting and very informative!
Cool video, I've been collecting for only 3 years, and I'm making sure I put the 30+ pairs of retro Jordan's I have in rotation . Because I don't want to come to a point where any of these Js start to crumble. Which ever pair starts to crumble, I want to be able to say that I got to enjoy wearing them.
Great video! I love that you provide the history line of the retro's. I also believe in the 2001 retro of the Black Cement 3 there were 2 variations depending on which factory assembled the shoe. There is a China pair and Taiwan pair. The difference I believe is the Taiwan pair had an insole of "Nike" and the swoosh where as the China pair had a "Nike, *swoosh*, Air" on the insoles. But overall great video!!
+Chris Winkler Back in the days you could cop retro Jordans for way cheaper then they cost now! Have you ever watched "He Got Game"? Look and see how much Denzel copped the retro 13s for..... Its crazy
+Tiyana Harvey it's like they lost popularity when he retired. In 1990 when I paid 124.99 for my black 5s it was like 190 nowadays so nothing really has changed

I have a question I have french blue sevens and they r remastered but u said NIKE AIR was only on 3456 on heel so are my sevens considered from the 90s
The original 7s from 92 had Nike Air on the insole inside the shoes, kinda like how the Hares and Bordeaux colors came out this year. However the French Blue 7s are a retro color that didn't drop until about 2002 and by then they was only putting jumpmans on them. Hope that answers your question.
Would a pair of 2000 release air Jordan 6 bred be fake if the box and size tag says made in Taiwan I ask because I see others that say made in China for the same exact model
+Joe Leal No bc nike changed factories. there are so many black infrared retros that have the made in china. but a 2000 should have made in taiwan. or maybe you have an OG pair? lol
Lol at least you can narrow it down to the black pairs. I personally love 5s so I would have to go with them. Black metallics were the the very first pair I ever owned :)
Great video...I personally have the bc4's 1999 retro in ds condition. No cracking or anything. Plus the 2013 retro 3. Still haven't worn those yet. Keep up the dope videos!
Brace yourselves. The hypebeasts are coming All jokes aside though, incredible lineup and history behind these shoes. Great work. It's sort of a shame that they don't even provide retro cards anymore.
Michael didn't decide to leave. He was suspended for gambling. Michael was the face of the NBA around the world . He brought so much money in they aloud him to fake a retirement to not tarnish his image.
Jordan Geller I've heard that vacuum sealing can cause rapid deterioration and crumbling of the polyurethane soles if they're not aired out every once in awhile
seth meyers Because in fact that speeds up the aging and deterioration of the rubber, left without air they crumble. The material needs to breathe like pretty much everything else organic. The only way you can prolong the life of the kicks is wear them every once in a while, even at home, to help that material to stay flexible and the glue to bond with it.
The black/metallic silver V is the single only re-release of Jordans until this day, that rightfully earned to be called truest to original. Having owned (and daily worn) both the original and the 2000 release since day one, I might even call the 2000 model the one of higher quality in terms of durability and keeping shape. Both of these releases are the finest quality shoes Nike ever release (stylewise I actually favor the black and firered VI over every other sneaker out there, in my book the most perfect sneaker of all time). Both releases survived hardest to core, everyday outdoor usage more than 12 years. Sadly, upper materials on both dissolved rapidly afterwards. But no other sneaker will ever reach that level of durability again. The latest issue of this sporting the Nike Air logo is an unwearable piece of junk. Everything went wrong there. And even the slightest changes destroy the magical appearance. For instance, if they would only have changed the length of the tongue by an half an inch and left everything ekse unchanged, the outcome would be just the same. Nike lost it. The upcoming IV is the new hope. In pictures, this could be a true reproduction.
Love Jordan's but if the jump man on the heal I can't fuck with them.. Jordan 1's if the jump man on the tongue and not the nike air they garbage.. keep it original
Damn! The shape of those White Fire Red 5's are absolute works of art! Holy shit!
Waiting for the 5s with Nike air on the heels coming out soon!!!
Yes my fav air jordan is the 5s
This year's Maroon 6's will feature Nike on the heal?! I hope they're not super limited.
Especially for a return from the OG, i really hope they make a few thousand more since theyre desireable
Black metallic 5s coming in July 2016
Yea OG color ways will get Nike Air on them
yep and the space jams are coming out
+Arnold Get ready for the Space Jam😂😂😂😂
Brian Garcia its going to be chaos
+Arnold OO true blue 3s coming in Black Friday 2016
My teacher rocking his black infrared 6s with nike air at the heel I don't know if its 1991 but it looks so old
So cool man, I bought my first pair of Jordans and they happen to be the 2016 Metallic 5s. Great video!
Copping those 2016 white and cement retro 4s
my holy grail is the original jordan 5 grapes from 1990 with nike air on the heel....i know there's the fresh princes but they dont have lace holes which is ridiculous. hopefully we can get a proper release in the future.
Can't wait for the Nike Air pairs for Black Cement 3s and the Bred 4s
Also they are releasing the retro for the OG black metallic 5s in 2016. either black friday or in the summer
DAMN, those og boxes look so fine and beautiful, nike should bring them back !!
You should contact Retro Snickers he restores vintage sneakers he could help restore them
They're releasing new retro 6s?!? Damn I find it hard to keep up with releases and usually miss out and have to pay over retail. :(
If i use leather conditioner would it help from them drying out and cracking?
Jose Rico Taco Nacho Quesadilla Mandela Jones nothing will stop the inevitable deterioration.
Do you wear your shoes or do you just collect them to put in the Shoezeum? Also great video, all of your videos are super interesting and very informative!
Michael Wasserman I wear and I collect.
the military blues rd and true blue 3s have Nike air on the back
The "Nike AIR" #3 is UNSTOPPABLE!!!!
Are midnight 6s retros since they only dropped in 01 and never had an og year?
Am i the only one that gets really excited when Jordy puts out a video 😂
Martin Bernal I get excited too.

Its odd the retro 5's were cheaper then the 124.99 they retailed for in 1990
Yea, I caught that too. I remember paying $140 in my freshman year in high school.

what about the jordan spike forty
Damn, how do your keep those 94 jordan 3s in such nice condition???
I think I can see the famous Jordan choking hand gestures while he's talking off camera
bring back the military blue 3's already! Hottest jordan of all time.
Great video man, what is your favorite out of the 9 would love to know
KickzForRich That is a very tough decision. I'm going with the Black 3s. I mean the 4s. I mean the 5s.
Lol at least you can narrow it down to the black pairs. I personally love 5s so I would have to go with them. Black metallics were the the very first pair I ever owned :)
Thank you for this outstanding review and all the others.
Oh the prices... The good ol'e days

Paul Macias thank you very much.

***** thank you very much. I love the early retros.
Wait the maroons are releasing this year ?

Very informative. Excellent video!
Michael didn't decide to leave. He was suspended for gambling. Michael was the face of the NBA around the world . He brought so much money in they aloud him to fake a retirement to not tarnish his image.
Excellent vid man. - SALUTE
LastBEARSFAN54 thank you very much.
Why don't you try vacuum sealing your shoes to help them deteriorate slower?
Jordan Geller I've heard that vacuum sealing can cause rapid deterioration and crumbling of the polyurethane soles if they're not aired out every once in awhile
Jordan Geller I think that putting kicks into separate atmosphere filled with argon would really, really slow down the deterioration of the shoe.
seth meyers Because in fact that speeds up the aging and deterioration of the rubber, left without air they crumble. The material needs to breathe like pretty much everything else organic. The only way you can prolong the life of the kicks is wear them every once in a while, even at home, to help that material to stay flexible and the glue to bond with it.

+dRock23 H its your shoe bro im letting my white cements 4 sit until i feel like wearing them, your choice
+Jeffrey Huang I feel ya. I prefer to wear my shoes, but it just seems like a waste if you never truly appreciate and get to wear them.

Which ones man ?
Any jordan (retro)
+Michael moreno nope

What Happen To The Fire Red 3 OG Bro
