Thanks again for the detailed review, every time we produce a project we learn from the experience and make improvements and keep moving forward. I believe that belonging to the "DB" 85s model will be more and more satisfying for many people 🤝
My pleasure, thank you for providing the community with the products they WANT and for an affordable price. Always striving for improvements every release is how it should be, keep it up!!🙌🏻🫶
Been waiting for the og version to come out. These are definitely a 🔥shoe. Looking at getting the Jordan 1 black toes with the aged look soon. Keep up the awesome work.
Definitely improved, if they will ever release a Royal one I would definitely cop a pair from them! Also I noticed that a thing they can improve is the heel counter, which is way rounded compared to the OG
I wear 11 1/2 in the 85 hi Jordan 1 what size do you recommend for the developer boring size because they don't have an 11 and 1/2 on their website website
Yea the GOAT "Og or Bust" just posted another video of DB's latest and greatest! This man is heavily respected in the game and his opinions are very powerful. Enjoy the video everybody...
I have my pair. Pre ordered the black toe and now ordering the restock Chicago 2.0. The price is insane. Makes it really tough to purchase retros unless they go on sale. I could just get 3 pairs of each DB and beat ‘em
Thx for your time . mine, bred and chicago 85s ship out 4/29 , waiting with anticipation. 2.0 versions dont have the production date stamp inside. now they have size custom DB . i guess a way to tell the ORG. DB from the 2.0 DB. also the 2.0 have developer boring stamped insole not this NIke Air . Not a big deal at all . just a change from the Org. DB .
I have both vrl ( 3 pairs) and DB (5 pairs) and I can tell you that these 2.0's are knocking on the door of vrl is almost every way. Vrls are perfect in the stitching game and colors however the DB 2.0s are breathing down vrls neck and whine it comes to price there is really ZERO comparison DB runs away with it.
So the more slanted toe box on the DB Chicago that you have , though it may not be exactly like the OG, I think it still looks way better than the more rounded toe box of the 2.0 you have in the DB Bred. But either way they are both way better than what Nike is putting out there. I have the DB Bred and Chicago. My DB Bred has the super slanted toe box and my Chicagos have the more rounded toe box. I LOVE them both.
If anything I feel like they should use the Jordan 1 High 85s as a template. They’re absolutely PERFECT replicas of the original few. To me I feel like they should improve the toe box and make it less round, make the collar higher and push the swoosh back a lil and make it smaller as well as in the middle of the side panel that matches better with the real 85 bred in the video. Once that’s all down, the V3’s would be PERFECT!!
I do love the retro 85s but they definitely have their issues. Most definitely with the toe box as well. VRL by far makes a better toe box and closer to the original than JB with the retro 85. HVND is also making an 85 cut which looks the closest to date from early photos I've seen. They even found the lasts from 1985 to construct the sneakers, can't get closer than that if executed properly. I should have a pair hopefully by late spring. Excited to see DB making more adjustments though , still work to do but they are improving every time so far..
Have you compared these to any of Nikes Retro 85 shaped shoes? I only own the Neutral greys and I felt the shape was not accurate to the 1985 at all and they’re authentic. I really like that Boring is giving us these great shoes with surprisingly great quality:price ratio.
I have a bit.. DB and Jordan Brand have made improvements along the way. It would be cool to do a comparison with the new retro 85, DB, HVND and vrl.. maybe down the line I'll do that.
Two questions for you 1) What’s the quality compared to the lost and found 1s and black and white 85 1s? 2) Do you think they’ll withstand the test of time in regards to durability?
I'm seeing in multiple videos that the perforations/holes in the toe panels are not centered. Such a small detail to be screwing up while getting so many other things right. Hope they start correcting that. I want to order some of these but am not sure because that detail would bother me.
question about the laces: are the laces as long as as the original 85s? the db black/ red is my first "85" and the laces seem to be abnormally long compared to my modern retros and og's
Love the content you bring us and the effort you put in. But, my guy, why do you always pronounce it "Swush"? Its Swoosh. You're too old-school and educated to be mispronouncing it like that!

They will be releasing all of the original colorways.

@@AbuUmar12809 these fit TTS. If half sizes aren't available, I'd go up half a size.
@@AbuUmar12809you could probably get away with going down 1/2 size because they run slightly long👍🏾
i like the way these look, like a mix of the actual 1985 1s and the 85 retros, not gonna explain fully. they look better than the vrl imo.
Overall really nice shoe and price is right. Leather is as good if not better than vrl
It’s nuts that Nike doesn’t want to commission accurate 85 Jordans
Yeah there’s 85s but it’s just not it the swoosh is still too small

Great review! Love those Jordan 1 black toes in the background. Looking at getting the black toes in the aged look from these guys.
Yes! That's exactly what I did with the DB black toe. I'll have a video posted later today.
Got mine to review next week. They look fantastic here and awesome in hand. My favourite J1 and it's just crazy to have these
Mine should be delivered to me this coming week and I cannot wait! They look so good
Very nicely done and they'll just get better
@@ogorbust1697 yup just got em today. They do not disappoint, especially for that price 👌🏻
Thx for your time . mine, bred and chicago 85s ship out 4/29 , waiting with anticipation. 2.0 versions dont have the production date stamp inside. now they have size custom DB . i guess a way to tell the ORG.

Those are gorgeous.
They looking great I'm waiting for my pair to come in so i can compare to my favorite current 1s the Viberemakelab Breds 👍
Cool man! All nice customs
Please let me know how that goes as I have vibes and have been thinking about getting db for a bit
I got Chicago version 1s and bred version 2s and do like more the shape from v1
Someone was selling their 1.0 on Reddit but I’m banned on the app and can’t even DM people :(
The 1.0 shape looks similar to the 1984 aj1 prototype. Amazing, I got two pairs.
Thicker cut on the outsole on the OG the grip on the outsole on the 85 that's all they needa fix pretty much
I have both vrl ( 3 pairs) and DB (5 pairs) and I can tell you that these 2.0's are knocking on the door of vrl is almost every way. Vrls are perfect in the stitching game and colors however the DB 2.0s are breathing down vrls neck and whine it comes to price there is really ZERO comparison DB runs away with it.
Price point and leather is also nice or DB IMO
I have 2 VRLs and I need the bred 1s. We need someone to compare those
So the more slanted toe box on the DB Chicago that you have , though it may not be exactly like the OG, I think it still looks way better than the more rounded toe box of the 2.0 you have in the DB Bred. But either way they are both way better than what Nike is putting out there. I have the DB Bred and Chicago. My DB Bred has the super slanted toe box and my Chicagos have the more rounded toe box.

@@MarkEnriquez1971 they've gotten it kinda between the 1 and 2 versions now consistently and I think it looks really good

@@ogorbust1697 wait where’s the photos for the 85 HVND cut!?
@@passionateerrors they've been working on them, I've seen some photos. Should have a pair relatively soon..
Great video!
Thanks for watching!
These are really nice
Got DB breds two's week ago

I friggin love this channel!
Is it just me, or is the length of the toebox a little shorter than the OG's??
Could be size difference og 12 and DB 11, very close though and scale looks correct
@@ogorbust1697 Thank you for replying
Thank you ❤
been looking forward to this video comparison.
i wanted to buy the Chicago 2.0 but 10.5 was sold out. you think i should go 10 or 11?
I'd go with a 10, they fit a bit roomier than the retro 85 for me
I agree these are a bit roomier than the retro 85s, I second that notion!
@@ogorbust1697 appreciate your input! that size 10 was sitting for so long until i decided to finally buy it, sold out! bummer, guess I'll wait
Where i Order

Two questions for you
1) What’s the quality compared to the lost and found 1s and black and white 85 1s?
2) Do you think they’ll withstand the test of time in regards to durability?
Shape is by far better than lost found. Both have nice leather. Rocked these 12 hours straight zero issues and comfortable
You feeling those reimagined bred 4s? I’d love to hear your perspective on them if you copped. 🙏
I'll have them in hand tomorrow and will post on IG, youtube comparison with the og will be down the pipeline!
Would it be worth reshaping the toe to be more like the 3.0?
For sure, maybe the steam method
I'm seeing in multiple videos that the perforations/holes in the toe panels are not centered. Such a small detail to be screwing up while getting so many other things right. Hope they start correcting that. I want to order some of these but am not sure because that detail would bother me.
Black toe and unc coming soon.. they have been making progress each release, my pairs perforations are pretty good no major issues
Do they run true to legit j1? Absolutely stunning shoe
Very nicely done for sure, they are only getting better too.
question about the laces: are the laces as long as as the original 85s? the db black/ red is my first "85" and the laces seem to be abnormally long compared to my modern retros and og's
I think 56 inches? They are long enough to lace up all the way. I think they look best that way, like the og
wish they'd ship to the Philippines
Would you say size is consistent with whatever you normal are in 1s?
The retro 85 runs a bit smaller than these
Can you play basketball in these? I ask this because I want to know how to durable these are.
Do the DBs have air units?
Yep!
I’m very interested in this shoe. Do you prefer these or the VRL ones?
Price point and leather I prefer these, I do like vrl too but DB will only get better as well.
do these come with the red laces?
Yep! Swapped immediately lol
Do these fit true to size? some context for comparison, my pairs from VRL are size 12
Similar fitment to vrl
hi those are rep or real nikes?
FIT FIT?
How do this run compare to OG 1s
Retro 85 a bit smaller fit
Does anyone know how long shipping takes?
3 weeks or so
How's the sizing man?
They fit a little larger than retro 85 aj 1
nOoooooooooooo
😂😂😂😂

That's how I've always said it, I guess it's a Midwest thing..🤣
@@ogorbust1697 lmao perhaps but im from Northwest Indiana also and I dont often hear it that way
@@neilwolski630 oh well.. how I've always said it so..🤷♂️
So air jordan 1s had a fat sole
BY factory had thicker sole, some more narrow like ty1 stp etc
Nice fakes
Retros are fakes too if you look at it that way
Great video as always!
