Imagine if adidas had signed Jordan...I feel like Nike would have the same status as New balance today. adidas would be #1 and Reebok or Converse would be #2. Another great video you guys!
keney hector Adidas was such a powerhouse back in the 80s so who knows? I feel like Phoebe Philo and Kanye really brought the brand back if anything. My dad and i were talking about how obnoxious the three stripes logo is on every adidas shoe back in the early 2000s and looks like the subtle minimalism adidas has implemented after the cosigns of thise two, proliferated the brand. Looks like Puma has followed suit too.

Ngl, ive always loved Jordans 3-14, but I always overlooked the 1 bc they looked like overpriced dunks with his sig wing logo but this was back when SBs were poppin in the early 00s. Thanks to the hype all i want are 1s smhh
@@NachoAverageFinds theres a story of another player in the 70s that signed with nike and he had a choice of 100k or 5% stake in the company. His manager told him to take the 100k and he has regreted that to this day. Cant remember the guys name. Just imagina if jordan didnt get on that plane.

Well if anyone watched The Last Dance, Converse wasn't going to give him his own shoe that's why he didn't go with Converse. And he wanted a deal with Adidas but they couldn't afford to give him a shoe, I guess.
I get so damn happy when I see in my notifications you guys uploaded. Wish you uploaded more great videos but it’s understandable, Passion results in quality & Quality takes time. Great video bros.
J Ali Yoooo thanks so much for understanding haha sometimes we feel hella guilty for taking so long to upload a video but we both have dat jobs. Will go full time soon and the upload frequency will increase. Appreciate the support!! 🙏🙏
the NBA didn’t banned shoes, just the colors, NBA knew Nike was going to release the AJ1 so they warned them. The big question is which pair did Jordan use before the dunk contest, the Chicago, the Black Toe 🤔
Stellar That makes me super happy. I have some TH-camrs who I like to watch after a long day too. Makes me excited to know that we can be that for you! Have a great day 😏😎🙏
*You guys always on point!*.... *I hate when peps say Banned 1's because anybody with sneaker knowledge already knew that the Airship is the Grail of Nike and without it that shoe, plus it getting banned, there could possibly never been a Jordan shoe!*
Such a great, warm vibe, just by watching your videos guys! I can acutally feel the love you are putting into this. It´s so interesting to understand the context. Thanks a lot.

Wasn't the shoe prohibited because the rules stated that court shoes needed to have a white or black bottom? So the red rubber outsole is what violated the rules, it wasn't the black and red/devil colorway they want to keep insisting is the reason why they didnt want Jordan to wear his shoes. It was because it had a different colored outsole.
Gilberto Flores The NBA didn’t want a bunch of different colors on the court cause they thought it would be a bad look aesthetically. Up until that point all shoes were white based.
What most people don’t understand is that the NBA didn’t banned shoes, just the colors! NBA knew Nike was going to release the AJ1 so they warned them. The big question is which pair did Jordan use before the dunk contest, the Chicago, the Black Toe 🤔
finally someone mentioned the airships! too bad it was probably more limited than Kanye's new bball shoe. dont even know if the new beginnings pack was released
May not was banned. But he definitely refrained from wearing the original silhouette in exchange for the white/red version that he wore predominantly for the rest of that season. Including that 63 point performance against Larry Bird and the Celtics in the playoffs to follow in 1986.
I woulda loved to hear the commentary on that footage. He was probably taping them alot because they were something no one seen before and definitely a stand out from the rest of the shoes on the court. And because they broke the rules...
Those are Chicago 1s. Incredibly expensive and sought after. The shoes in the blurry background are the Nike x Supreme Foamposites which are equally as expensive...
Wow ! I am 50 years old, and I had no idea about any of this information. Yet I can understand MJ’s mindset at the time, because of RUN D.M.C. & My Adidas Song as Adidas was the ( izzzz nick ) back then ✌🏾
Is there any thoughts on a Karhu video? They sold the rights to the three stripes design to adidas for some kegs of beer and a cash purse and were apparently the first brand to put air in the sole of the shoe.
shortalay Hmmm that’s actually a great suggestion. I’ve never even heard of Karhu actually. I just looked it up and it seems super interesting! Would love to do make a video on them. Thanks!
I'am so glad that i have for some reason 5 (not a joke) 5 pairs of the Nike Air Jordan 1 banned with the "x" on the back, maybe or maybe not because it was banned?
