Ofc it's a fake story line its something Jon has always done on his videos. He's a dope ass dude, I put could you imagine really finding them for 16 bucks.
I should post my video about how I found a mint Lamborghini Miura at the local car auction for $500.00. I only had 3 dollars in my bank account but the $532.00 overdraft fee was worth it. The rubber on the tires was from 1968 , was the hardest tire swap I ever done. 60s Italian rubber was god tier. Since I just happen to be a Lamborghini Miura restoration specialist I will post a video of the whole restoration. This was not a staged event at all.
His content is interesting enough without all the fake shit. I get it gets fast views but it isolates a large majority people who don’t fw the fake shit
Lol yeah, and those laces dont look a day over a few weeks let alone 30 years... I mean to be fair its entertaining content, but its all fake as all get out.

Man I loved this video so much. Really relaxing and loved the effort you went to to restore these to their former glory. I hope you wear them with pride!
Wayyyyy back in the day, a kid i went to school with, hus brother worked at Chicago stadium when Jordan first started playing. He was an original Jordan fanboy. Shoes, wrist bands, pants. Everything you could buy in the mid 80s. One day his brother broght him home a pair the Michael Jordan had signed for him. Last i actually SAW those shoes was circa 1987 maybe....i wonder where they are now.
I am speechless! Nice job! You totally brought an original pair of Jordan 1 back to life!! I was 15 years old when these were released and wished ( like others) that I had kept mine .
@@HeresJohnny-b4u my favorite is when content creators like this package their own shoes and say it’s a $3,000 mystery box and they mad like $2000 profit
Great job! This is the first I’ve seen a sneaker broken down and worked on like that. I think it’s a great enhancement, but, does replacing the original sole devalue the sneaker?
it does of course! but it's impossible to use as they're 30 year old shoes, sole will start to crumble and destroy itself. doing this process makes it wearable and usable, and probably a amazing decoration too. as you said, it devalues too, you choose!
I hit a super luck find a few years ago finding the dr.feelgood SB dunks at a thrift store. The suede is dirty right now just trying to get all the rights stuff to clean them! Awesome find
That is really cool, I have some old obscure running shoes from the 70's and this has inspired me to attempt a new hobbie seeing as my old shoes are like wearing ice skates as is.
As long as the shoes have a price tag they can sell them… some one “staged” them and made sure that he was on his was or near so that nobody can buy them… I call cap
I remember that day I lined up a crowd of 30 people that day at footlocker.. Purchased that same pair of Jordans in chicago Bulls color..Still have them, in great condition, crap I never thought they would go for that ridiculous price..
I feel like restoring shoes you find at thrift stores are a lot better than finding them in the ground unless you find cleaning the ones in the ground to be more satisfying
@@lil_Fanta I'm referring to some of his videos where he just finds shoes in mud or something like that. An example of this is the Nike Dunk SB Tiffany shoes that he got from digging in mud
Maybe not, but it is a believable find... literally a pair of shoes, if you told me a 1980s pair of nikes were worth up to 30k a week ago I would be hella surprised.
I wanted to add that this video is from a year ago- I am surprised wherever you found these that they didn’t ask much more but I’m guessing they had no idea exactly how old these were and what an original pair goes for on eBay or anywhere else. And good for you too!!!
I started a shoe collection recently. I have a few forces, panda dunks, and a pair of Jordan 1s so far. I was inspired by your channel because since I had a lot of time on my hands, I watched all your videos and that was about all I thought about. So thanks I had a pair of white force customs (I built them online) that I got tired of. So I dyed them pink with kool aid. You dying the soles with coffee reminded me of that. Thanks for the content
@@moneysigno9342 thank you someone gets it those are one of these worst dunks of all time not cause of the look but the way they crease and they’re super overrated
I was once shopping at a thrift store run by 2 old ladies and saw a large photo in a fancy frame with the glass over the photo cracked. The price was $25.00. I didn't take advantage of these ladies because the store benefitted a church. It was a beautiful original photo of Colonel George Armstrong Custer before he became a General. 😮
3:26 = you doin the mask for you dawggggg not for us! 😂 Bro this video is 🔥 I love anything AJ. I own quite a few pairs myself. No wonder MJ’s feet would be blood soaked at the end of games when they were super new and tight. I wear mine and I’d never wear those on the court and I played ball much of my younger life.
Hey John , live the video and just subbed . Got a question . I have a pair of the unite Jordan 3’s and need to paint the toes boxes. Do you know what angelus color or what paint to use ?
Man, there's something about a worn in pair of Jordan 1 Chicago's that really do it for me, I think 1's look great with some wear & tear, but any other Jordan I like to see in good shape it, like I couldn't wear a beat up pair of 3's 4's etc Mad really.
Cool vid! Two questions for you or anyone who might know, what were they worth before restoring them and what are they worth now? As a collector I would assume that it would have been best to leave them as is but I’m no expert,
Hey i find jordans at the thrift store too and my first pair were jordan 1 mid chigago wear away before i moved on and im greatful for what jordans i find😢
Now this is a REAL lost and found!

Literally what I was saying in my head😂😂

Aren’t they worth more keeping them original I feel like restoring them brings the value down a lot
Thats what im saying
I don’t really think his intend is to sell them or something
💯
Most of his restorations are for customers, so the customer is most likely intending to wear them.
Cant be real. Imagine finding a 10k vintage shoe and remove all the value by restoring it XD
Maybe cause he's planning on wearing them.
It’s staged

you could probably pay someone to do it for u ngl
when i should find these pair..i would not change any thing...just put it behind glass and enjoy it everyday....man such a find is epic
For some reason I doubt a dude with 900k subscribers on youtube only has $4.99 in their account. But okay.

i love this guy he cares about his viewers he gave us a mask and eye protection
Curious. how does the restoration impact resale? would replacing the soles decrease value since it's not all original anymore?

Out here doin surgery on shoes. Love it the ammount of effort put into restoring these gems
Great job. I love how you kept the spirit of these alive and didn't f around too much
You would never do this to original 85 Jordans in a million years! 😂😂

Yeah if you believe in Santa Clause to😁
@Lime Life Yes. One time. It's rare
This is fake. Guys gf works at goodwill.
What girlfriend bro?
This is a sick clips! Awesome stuff bro
The main thing is to find them, even without reconstruction they cost not much less, and often more expensive)
its been like 6 years since i watched ur vids, love ur vids
The dog howling at the end was a great touch
This kid deserves way more than five bucks in his account. Lots of talent! Keep up the grind buddy!
Gonna have 10k after this!😂😂
15:30 the real MVP
Hope your hard work was rewarded. That would be so cool to get a find like that in a thrift store
These are literally my DREAM shoes. I have jordan 1 white cement OH highs, but the Chicagos, man those are awesome. Wish I had a pair
8:48 and when I see the foam I’m in my zone - Shoe Doc
Amazing restoration work ❤
Oh was the thrift shop called lids cause you capping 😂
Only had 5 bucks in your account. Hard to believe. Finding Chicago 1s in a thrift store? I feel like you guys are reaching real hard.
Not to consider he has 800k subscribers lol

I like how the Dog went HOOOOOOOOOOO 🐕 ! at the end
this man is goated😩🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
that dog howling to the song was great
How does someone donate these and not check what the price is online (about 20,000 dollars)
Has 4.99 in his bank account, yet still has an entire shoe refurb laboratory at home. Uh huh
Oo Holy smokes! Real L&Fs for reallllllll. Nice resto work broseph
i love the old vintage warn look. i would keep them exactly how i found them
They ripped! Every step ur toes would touch the floor
i would sell them, imagine finding a rare shoe like this and restoring it
How did you end up sewing the soles at the end? I wish I could see that part. They turned out really nice. How long does the whole process take
check at 14:45

Was a machine used for the stitching???
Just found this channel. I have a sneaking suspicion these amazing shoe finds aren’t real.
One could say, a "sneaker" suspicion.
Yessir when i see the foam im in the zone🔥💀
I found some nice rocky tan winterized 6 rings for $20 at platos and still wear them to this day no restore needed

Ruined the whole pair.
Should have just got some Reps….
I agree, I would have kept them as is , Their only Original once
80s jordan , the necklace
Have you tried the ironing the toe method with a towel and steam?

Exactly. It was staged. He bought those off eBay and he probably told somebody at the store to put a price tag or he put the price tag on it himself.

You should’ve got some fz150, when you see the foam, your in the zone, and for the yellow, they come out white like marshmellow
Do they loose value after swapping parts of the shoe out?
dosent changing part of the shoe ruin the whole point of being an authentic shoe ?
does changing the tires on the car make the car fake

What glue do you use?
