  • It's been announced the #jordan1 Low 85 Neutral Gray will release next month in October at $170. This is a jump from the $140 the non 85 cut released at for the Black Toe this summer. Is this too steep of a price for you for a #jordan 1 Low #sneaker or are you very much willing to pay it for the true 85 cute?

    Yeah, I thought that price was crazy seeing as though I just paid $140 for the black toe. But, to each its own. I'll go for them since I missed out on the original release 2 years ago and this will be cheaper than paying resell for the 2021 release.

    TJ unrelated but I know you like the Vans Knu Skool shoe but I think you might find the New Balance 480 better. The Reynolds colorway dropped and is sitting some places but best part is the shoe is $100. Materials are great and if your looking for a brown shoe with similar SB dunk looks for under the price of a dunk or Jordan these are amazing.

    I had this thought recently and that is "how long before a regular Gr Jordan is 300?" I feel like we never see price decreases in product and brands only increase the prices. I believe if prices for shoes keeps going up this may leave room for unknown brands to come come in and create product at a lower price point for about the same value in tech and materials.

    I've been waiting for these but I admit, that retail price is really high. I think I'd like to see some early looks on them first before deciding especially from WearTesters. I know Chris from WearTesters has said that Nike has been tweaking the 85 (high) cut to closely resemble the 85 shape as much as possible with each release. At $170, that leather better be noticeably better than other Jordan 1 Lows and OG Lows, and that shape better be as close to the original as possible.

    • @TalksWithTJ
      @TalksWithTJ  ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Yeah I agree, and if Chris is able to get his hands on a pair early, that would be one of the most unbiased sources to look for feedback! His videos always deliver!!!

    I recently received an email that I had member access to create a Nike ID dunk and it is now $160! I created one a few months ago for $130! I have the feeling that Nike is passing the “Memphis heists “ on to the consumer. I know that this typically happens in department stores, but “inflation” is also a driver, and the costs on certain merchandise increase. That’s what I think but could be wrong.

    • @TalksWithTJ
      @TalksWithTJ  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think they always intended to charge more and why not? Resale market has proven to Nike they can squeeze more out of retail since people think paying $30 over retail is a steal if they take an L.

      I think nike realized bumping these up 20 means the real buyers get em because they paid resale anyways and also cut out all these resellers sitting on 200 pairs to make $20 over retail on all of them.
      I'd pay 175 resale on these do I'm gonna get from nike for thst and not have to cross my fingers to hit a raffle for sure.

      Gotta remember everyone doesn't pay resale. I know many people who never pay resale, it's retail or nothing. Most consumers don't pay resale. If they did resale would be a larger market than retail and it's not. Therefore if the base price is going up, the majority of consumers will be affected more than resale buyers.

    Great-looking AJ1s, might have the potential to outshine the Black Toes, but that’s just my opinion. Still love those red and black and white jays. I think we’re finally feeling the adverse effect of the resale market that’s why Nike keeps raising their SRPs. Either way, consumers lose, and resellers and big corporations win.

    I really wish the brand would make the low OG shape from 2015 only and charge us $130/140. They have three (actually four) different lows. 1. The cheapest and worst shape (my opinion) for $100
    2. The 2015 shape reserved ONLY for special projects like Travis Scott lows
    3. The new OG shape started in 2021 (neutral greys, recent black toes)
    4. The new old new OG 85 lows that will debut soon.

Ppl slept on 85 high black white because the retail was high in January 2023 and same for Spider-Man high 2.0 well nike is now charging that same price for all aj1 highs.

    1. New/modern sneakerheads don’t seem to understand WHY 85 retros are $20-$30 more expensive.
    The reason why they are more expensive is due to the construction and materials. You’re getting thicker leather, a board lasted shoe, and thick polyurethane insole. Compare that to the thin, soft leathers of retro 1s that have a floppy, cheap insole and it’s a world of difference.
    Plus, it’s $30. How does an extra $30 for a shoe that only releases once a year that bad? Don’t get fast food twice a month and there’s your extra $30.
    2. Those big swoosh 1 lows aren’t OG. They’re just older versions that have the correct swoosh and 8 eyelets. Those are the closest 1 OG Low Nike has given us before completely screwing it up.
    85s over all of these lifestyle Jordan 1s. Zero point in getting the 2021 Neutral Grey lows when the 2015 and the new 85 cuts are far superior in shape alone.
