That’s all supposed sneaker heads care about today is resale value! They care more about that, than the actual shoes themselves. Let’s face it, the Sneaker Community is a sad state of affairs today. This is a really nice pair of sneakers and I’m glad to have them in my collection! I could care less about resell value or hype. I buy what I like!
I dig em. Actually love that hype on these has died off bc I was able to cop a pair easily with no headaches. A bad time to be a reseller, I suppose, but a great time for those of us just looking to buy what we like for retail.
These just released a couple of hours ago here in Australia, and instead of selling out in 30 seconds like usual, they were thankfully slow to go. Can hardly wait to get them now, even more so after watching this!
Can't pass the OG color blocking of the Royal 1s, yes it wasn't the leather build but it's good enough for me. Since times change, a lot of those who were casually attracted to sneakers have left, resellers now have much less people to sell kicks to, less people now are interested in buying overpriced, overhyped sneakers. I honestly don't care whether 1s are hyped or not, what's it's "market value", All I care about is to wear them. I'm so happy to be able to buy these with zero hassle, difficulty for retail. Since it's sitting, I may pick up another pair if it goes to discount down the line.
It was first come first serve in EU, I overslept and ordered 10 minutes later, copped. Gotta love it when people do not get overhyped and we can get shoes we like without stressing
Love that I could cop. Honestly I think the reason the are sitting is because of the material. Suede in general doesn’t age well when it gets dirty and is a pain to clean.
If they plan on keeping a crisp pair of these then i really think it would be a bummer to take care of em. I plan on beating up my pair, will give it more character when the suede creases and fades 😁
@@annawalker5115 Wait when did I say they were fully suede lol? I have suede and leather J’s and the suede color fades quick eventually every time I clean them. I don’t mind suede as a material, but I know most people don’t prefer them because they don’t age as well as regular nike leather J’s.
When prices are low this when you buy. We been through so many times before. Then in the next 5-10 years prices are gone sky rocket. I got the chicagos one for 110 back in 2013 with a 30 percent discount sitting like ducks.
I feel like the reason its a "sleeper" is because the community is getting smaller. I started buying jordans in 2020, I only ever had like 2 pairs growing up as a kid. So when I came back during covid and actually started collecting shoes I copped ALOT but then slowed down heavy 2 years in when I realized I didn't really need or enjoy the hobby like that. I just like shoes. So now I don't "gotta have" a rare drop anymore imo. I just get whatever colorway is available if I really want a certain jordan sillhoutte, OR i wait till the specific shoe in question restocks/redrops/retro's again.. Even if that might take years 😂 Atleast that'll give me something to buy in 15 years if i'm still interested in Jordans!
Jordan 1 of the yr if u ask me...Def copped.. 🔥....got the 17 pair but I like how these pop more....much respect bro....I rock wit u and ya pop chkn out kicks...much love
They heat im 30 these are heat these younger kids are why it isn’t going for much if it’s not a collab or a Jordan four they don’t care anymore it’s sad they don’t even form their own opinions anymore it’s all about hype and what’s “cool” they’ll realize eventually I’d imagine.
I don’t think og sneakerheads going crazy for these. Nike needs to slow down on royal and bred releases. I still have my og royals. Plus I copped those flyknit royals just don’t need these.
I'm 28 and have been into shoes for a long time and I love this shoe I think it's nice to get something different every now and then is it better than the og? Hell no but it's still nice to see something different in my opinion
@@Brandon-ft3cs they could have done more than just switch the material .it’s not enough to justify buying another pair of royals especially if you own the og and the other spinoff’s before this one.
I am just getting into sneakers now. Bought some trav fragment lows yesterday and got to footlocker 9am sharp for opening thinking there would be a line. No one lol first person in New Zealand (probably) to cop them
Dj I just want to appreciate you bro and also give thanks for talking to us to your fans , your supporters and giving us all the true facts and information and all the details that we need to now and giving us the preview of the Jordan 1s reimagined royal.
Thank god these are sitting and under retail cuz i really fuck with these. Yes i would have liked a normal leather version like the lostnfounds but i fw the all suade. I like the blue even tho its a bit brighter than the og
I think it’s a combination of J1 fatigue + economy + lot of people wanting them to be like the Chicago reimagined and being turned off at the fact that they’re suede. Oh well, like everyone’s said - easy cop for me 😂
I ❤ the nubuck and suede look 🔥🔥 People keep complaining about the materials, but these are made out of the same material as tims. Theres not a lot of suede in the shoe for the reactions I'm seeing. Keep 😴 these are 🔥
I’m so glad I got them for under retail. I would’ve bought them for retail but I mean who would say no to saving money, plus it’s a color way I always wanted
I feel like the materials are the main reason they're sitting. Not because there's anything wrong with suede, but because it's the wrong time of year to wear a shoe like this in lots of areas, mine included. In my area during the fall/winter it's always overcast...wet and rainy...maybe a sunny day every few weeks at best. There's no way I'm buying a suede shoe if I have to wait until the summer to wear it no matter how much I like it. I'd love to have these, but not badly enough that I'm gonna cough up the dough now. I'm gonna wait until the spring or later before I try to pick up a pair, and I imagine a lot of people will do the same. Love the content...keep it up!
@@peaceonearth7142 True, but it's still an extra step, and I've found especially for sneakers that scotchgard or crep protect or collonil or whatever only works to a point, not to mention that you have to re-apply every year at least. Most people, especially when it comes to their shoes, aren't going to take the time.
4 months later Just copped for the lowskeee 119.99 .. shoepalace they 🔥 just not for 180.. no fees no final boss .. if the OG didn’t exist this would be a 10 y’all crazy
Dj to be honest bro in my opinion what I think about the air Jordan 1s reimagined royal I think they look 🔥 and great on feet to be honest I would definitely cop’em and also add them to my collection I just loved it the black and that royal suede color-way 🔥 I truly can’t wait to add them to my collection cuz Jordan 1s are one of my favorite Jordan’s.
I broke down today and ordered a pair. I think they look killer! Ive been on the fence, should i wait on bred 4s or j1 royal suede? Ill cop both lol. Ill swap these out with my red suede 5s and my racer blue 9s. Just me but i think these look better than the 2017 royals.
Now the OG sneaker heads can get back to enjoying our shoes. All the hype beasts on the next trend....I know the craft j4 olive is probably going to be tough to get, but atleast I can cop these. Haven't released in South Africa, yet.
Well I must like the shoe because I keep watching videos about it (this one is easily the best of the bunch so far btw) but, I dont think Im gonna pick them up (its difficult to let em get away tho 😅 maybe on sale?!)
Happy to have hit on them. They look wider than the previous releases in this video. Have to go a size up on leather Jordan 1’s for room in the toe but my CMFT 2 Jordan 1 is TTS. Hoping that holds true here as well as I ordered TTS.
I didn’t cop but I appreciate Jordan/Nike giving the community a fire shoe like bruh these go hard I just really don’t like the way 1s fit on me or how they look on me I like the shoe and outfit I’ve seen I have the university blue 1s but I sold them tbh I really ain’t like the feel but I’m glad a lot of ppl got to grab them
A dope shoe for sure! It is interesting to see them sit right now. There are a lot of good releases coming next year but maybe this is the true turning point of the game that can allow all the real heads to enjoy sneakers fro a 2-3 year window.
Ppl think it’s trash. And i love it, coz i got it below retail 😂 i like these coz I’ll beat them up, and beating them up will crease the suede, will fade the (blue) suede, will give the (black) suede the ashy look, and it’ll give the shoe more character. Makes it more of a personalized look based on how your foot operates and creases the shoe. Plus, i’ve never had the og royals. So i think it’s a must grab for me.
So nobody should be going after the reimagined bred 4s I assum with all the hate for these! I like em I copped em. Dope iteration of the OG. Maybe a deeper blue is my only gripe
i really liked these and i bought em but i had to return my pair cuz both shoes had spots on the suede on toe boxes and it looked like it was rubbed off i was pissed
I have all the reimagined shoes… tht all tht matter.. I love the Jordan 1 so it’s a when who cares about.. hype don’t make fresh it just means u willing to spend over price for a shoe… Retail or under is always the best Cop…
Returned mine yesterday. Don’t have Royal 1s in leather- but 180 for a consolation prize is tough. That’s what these are - consolation prizes. They don’t have anything engaging about them like the lost and found. It’s an official bootleg
I got EA on these and I can tell you pictures don’t do they justice. I still got a DS 2017 pair and I copped the because I didn’t want to waist the EA. Glad I copped because the show is 🔥🔥🔥 in hand.
Well, the Bottom line is if Nike would’ve limited the production of these to only 350k pairs then resellers would’ve made some odd $150million by reselling them for double (at least) and then the same sneakers would’ve been the hottest and the greatest of 2023. Leaving the OG PG AG comparison aside, I love the j1 style, shade of blue and premium material for exactly $114.75 that I paid to Nike

I’m just glad that those of us who want them will have an opportunity to get them. 😁

ABSOLUTELY!!! I was just so happy that i didnt need to “compete” just to get a pair that i like. Mine hasnt arrived, but im already happy

They aren't fully suede. Why do people keep calling em that? I bought a suede and nubuck brush and cleaner on Amazon under $20

Big facts!
I’m glad the royals aren’t patent leather it was a must cop
Man these were slept on! But i loved just walking in the store and scoopin them for retail, materials on point with this one.
Yo DJ I appreciate you being active in your community! Shows love n dedication.
Much love!
I feel like the reason its a "sleeper" is because the community is getting smaller. I started buying jordans in 2020, I only ever had like 2 pairs growing up as a kid. So when I came back during covid and actually started collecting shoes I copped ALOT but then slowed down heavy 2 years in when I realized I didn't really need or enjoy the hobby like that. I just like shoes.

Even if that might take years 😂 Atleast that'll give me something to buy in 15 years if i'm still interested in Jordans!
I've also gotten interested in other sneakers as well like Dunks and Air Force 1 highs or lows "by you" or in other words, the custom colorways!
You just defined a sneakerhead my boy! Exactly what it’s all about
I only buy AJ1 and dunks.❤ Those are the only silhouette I like
Jordan 1 of the yr if u ask me...Def copped.. 🔥....got the 17 pair but I like how these pop more....much respect bro....I rock wit u and ya pop chkn out kicks...much love
Just copped mine for $100! Easy steal & dude only tried on once! 😮💨👌🏾🔥
Just got these today for $145 including tax 🔥🔥🔥
Nike had a 25% off for members and I had to cop
I got mine 😁 the material and fit feels good on these royal, a new taste for me 😁 good thing some hate it so its an easy cop
💯💯💯
The only reimagined shoes that I like is the Chicago L&F, and reimagined 3. Switching materials ain't my thing
Be sure not to go for the bred 4s blud
@@GGPG you know he’s going for the 4, it’s the hottest Jordan right now so he gota have it 🤣🤣🤣
@@micpango but he said he dont like switching materials. Maybe he just dont like the royal because it has no resell 🤣

Agreed but more for us. I personally like 1-15,17low and I just found out a lot of people don’t like Jordan 7-10 anymore it’s crazy lol
I don’t think og sneakerheads going crazy for these. Nike needs to slow down on royal and bred releases. I still have my og royals. Plus I copped those flyknit royals just don’t need these.

Keep up the good work Also joined black friday so good Luck everyone
never owned the Royals .. so I copped 2 pairs this time.
🔥🔥🔥
I am just getting into sneakers now. Bought some trav fragment lows yesterday and got to footlocker 9am sharp for opening thinking there would be a line. No one lol first person in New Zealand (probably) to cop them
Look forward to watching your videos everyday. I love when you and your dad do the monthly sneaker review
I appreciate that! We’re filming that tonight 🙌🏽 should be up tomorrow
Awesome
Sneaker resale is dead... and I couldn't be happier. Buying sneakers at retail is the move.
About to go pick these up, I still miss the 2017 Royals 😭
Dj I just want to appreciate you bro and also give thanks for talking to us to your fans , your supporters and giving us all the true facts and information and all the details that we need to now and giving us the preview of the Jordan 1s reimagined royal.
I ordered mine this morning thinking they would sell out 11 hours later. Only size 3.5 7.5 15 and up are sold out. Common sizes are still available
Good morning DJ. I really like this pair honestly better than the leather pair. I might just be patient for a sale though now
Yea they might sit in some places
I copped a size 13 for me and a 12 for the homie on FLX. These are nice. Can’t wait to get them in hand.
I appreciate your review. GodBless.

Strange the last month a lot of Jordan 1s are sitting on SNKRS UK. It was an easy cop in the afternoon with just big sizes gone
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
these are dope, especially since i cant get a pair of the 2017 edition.
I was never a hypebeast, nor a ney-sayer. AJ1s are unstoppable.
What a time to buy J1s. I copped them for 142 bucks with a 25% off code, 2 days after release LUL. Every J1 this year bricked out so hard
quali looks great...hope mine are 2 will get them next week💙
🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽

I was able to cop em when they dropped. Super dope.
Im 5.9 in a half i wear a 13 to a 14 so if i see these below retail ill buy them long skinny feet for the win
Aye I sat on these, but I got my pair and fr the material is quality. In hand these are hella clean def double up for me
I think they are 🔥 bro I really like them I have to added them to the collection I really think that people slept on this one
Just bought a pair of these today for $98 at my local Nike outlet. 👍👍
I canceled my pair... saw they were going under retail on stockX. Figure I'll hold off.
I feel it!
I picked up my pair on GOAT for $150. Definitely a great cop!

Yes, but the first image we saw was a mockup with an aged look like the Lost and Found.
Wait how does it already have a resale value? Its still in stores right?!
What kind of spray can i put on top of the suede to protect it?
Aye these royal reimagine or the satin breds???
Fiya 🔥🔥🔥
So nobody should be going after the reimagined bred 4s I assum with all the hate for these! I like em I copped em. Dope iteration of the OG. Maybe a deeper blue is my only gripe
Royal shows up differently on suede, obviously. Side by side there's not much difference
i really liked these and i bought em but i had to return my pair cuz both shoes had spots on the suede on toe boxes and it looked like it was rubbed off i was pissed
Hit on them this morning, size 13 gang!
Let's goooo!
these are a triple cop for me tbh. these gonna be highly slept on years for now.
Wonder if it has to do with people or a generation growing out
Just picked them up for $150 from shoe palace
I have all the reimagined shoes… tht all tht matter.. I love the Jordan 1 so it’s a when who cares about.. hype don’t make fresh it just means u willing to spend over price for a shoe… Retail or under is always the best Cop…
Cool video!
But yeah 2001 is probably a good year Royal Blue 1 tbh.
Returned mine yesterday. Don’t have Royal 1s in leather- but 180 for a consolation prize is tough. That’s what these are - consolation prizes. They don’t have anything engaging about them like the lost and found. It’s an official bootleg
😂😂😂
I'm late cuz I just copped on Sale for 120 Thanks Sheep I'm scooping up all the so called duds This year 🤷🏿♂️😊
Bro this aint that bad!! Hahaha im really glad they sleep in these, I got 3 of these. This joint are fire. 70 out of 100
Hey I’m hoping you or anyone else can help me, I’m wanting to know where I can try and get the tightbooth dunks releasing on the 14th in the UK?
I spoke a reseller down from 180 to 150 but after wearing them and hearing that they are sitting up I wish I would’ve gave him at least 180 lol😅
25% off Nike all sizes in stock
What about the jordan 1 mid gym reds?
I haven't seen anyone talking about this shoe and it's really cool and i think it's new?🤔
The Sneaker game is alive and well!
The bozos that were in the game just for reselling have left and only the real ones remain.
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
These are sittin hard.. Bricks! The suede was a serious wallet saver!
Literally SNKRS Taiwan full size run still available, Asia not feeling the AJ1 anymore
🔥🔥I couldn’t cop them😢
😩😩😩
I just got em for 160 cheapest pair I bought this year OMG
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I got the OGS royal jordan 1 IMO their better then the new reamagines
I got EA on these and I can tell you pictures don’t do they justice. I still got a DS 2017 pair and I copped the because I didn’t want to waist the EA. Glad I copped because the show is 🔥🔥🔥 in hand.
Cost of living crisis in the UK right now for most people.
I really like them
Same 🙌🏽
Got mine for $155 at Finish line
Well, the Bottom line is if Nike would’ve limited the production of these to only 350k pairs then resellers would’ve made some odd $150million by reselling them for double (at least) and then the same sneakers would’ve been the hottest and the greatest of 2023.
Leaving the OG PG AG comparison aside, I love the j1 style, shade of blue and premium material for exactly $114.75 that I paid to Nike
2013's is the 🔥🔥🔥
💯💯💯
jordan hype going down in 2024, price also going down, it's my time to shine
A large number of people like/love this shoe however it's more about the price that's decreasing the hype..... 😏
Ppl had to pay rent 😂😂😂 I got mines doe 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I'm picking up 2 pairs 🤷
