@ 5:30 This why I rock with this channel. The knowledge and attention to detail! I noticed the shape, mold, cut difference when I compared them to my fire red 4’s. 2021 giving us that 1999 cut vibe. The taller bulkier mid foot + slim toe box. I LOVE IT. Makes my fire red 4’s look horrible when I noticed how small/short they are.
I remember how easy thunder 4s were in 2012 I walked right in the store to pick them up. The bred 11 came out the very next day so a lot of people passed on them. Ever since then I been wait for the Lightning’s to come out 🔥
@@maurimeza1685 been in the sneaker game since I was a teenager in the late 90’s. The shape of the 2021 retro looks way better than the ‘06 pair… to each his own.
I think the main reason for the 2021 version getting more votes is because your audience is most likely new sneakerheads. We weren't around in 2006 so we have no attachment to the 2006 version.
That’s true but the shape of the new looks better compared to 06 bent shape. Plus the new ones are more wearable cause they are slightly muted compared to the 06 pair.
@@CrookedIdiDanca Personally I liked the old one better which is why I got rid of the new one. It’s very underwhelming in hand. I’m just stating why everyone voted the way they did
@@MiLLz830 when u see shoe come out again and it has worse quality and presentation it automatically is inferior even with the improved shape which I agree is better fam.
Retro cards would be a great addition to the newer year retros....such a nostalgia thing for AJ lovers...and I know inflation is real..but for the retail price on the new retros...gotta be a retro card added..IMO. New subscriber here, keep it up DJ, your channel is 🔥
Ignoring the price difference and any historic significance, the new version just looks better. Hopefully the materials feel reasonable but I've heard nothing special about the previous iteration. 2006s were all about the yellow and I honestly think the new ones are a better colour. Not to hype because I want my pair; just saying.
@@jeremymuir4332 I agree. What do you think the resell on these will be. I gotta feeling it might be high. Majority of the newer 4’s are going for the high rn.
The 06 have the older style tongue tag with the wonky lookin jumpman, with his skinny arm and ankle etc. I’m so glad they fixed that on newer shoes. Just one of those small details that important to me I guess
Bro happy asf bro. I finally finished my 1 threw 6 jordan all in new condition. My retro 2 came in today i was like you. Ahhh you got the shoe. I grabbed the jordan 2 decon all black with the suede
For me, the most important thing is that 2021 is brand new and will last longer. OG hype is not worth the price for a shoe that has been sitting in a box for 15 years.
@@jameskilla7138 same with retro of LeBron South Beach. I'm just happy to get the shoe without paying an arm and leg. Forget the hype of "OG Pair". I just wanna wear the shoe haha.
Retro cards I do have, air jordan 2 mike in the white jump suit, air jordan 4 moke at the park, air jordan 6 mike as a comic book hero, aor jordan 8 mike in space, air jordan 9 mike in Carolina uniform, air jordan 11 mike dunking, air jordan 12 mike in the master pic, air jordan 13 mike and a black panther, air jordan 14 last shot, this is all off the top of my brain, those are the cards I own
2021 pair is way better at all aspects than the 2006. The older pair on the side view looks like banana shape. Good thing Jordan Brand have decided to correct the aesthetics this time around by sticking to the OG Shape
2021 Not saggin on the side, all the tweaks from color are better. Couple shades lighter in some areas make a difference. Other than that, not much. I love the style, hate the color personally. It'd been nice if they'd offered a few different colors. I'd been down with that.
I'm from that 2000's era and I definitely remember the '06 pair. But I really like the OG shape on the '21 pair. The shape is way better than the 2006 pair
I don't like how the recent Jordan nubuck shoes look wrinkled like grandpa skin before even worn. OGs does get creases also but not wrinkles like the new shoes also the 2021 cool grey 11 have the same wrinkled effect
I think Nike is going to do this more times. Repeat models after 10 years or more so that resales do not skyrocket. It is outrageous that some shoes today count 250 and in 3 years 1500 for example
Back in 2006 I wanted this shoe so damn bad. The sneaker game has come so far and turned so wack I wouldn’t even look twice at this shoe. Everything watered down and hyped tf up. I rather wear regular shoes than rare Jordan’s anymore 💯 FYI the cut on the 2006 is better.
@@DNASHOW deff had listen to you bro. Price went $300 down.. i also got a question bro how do they fit ?? Bc on my ragging bulls i copp a sz 7M and it fit true. Im a sz 7.5 in every other shoe. But i was checking this 4s and they have 7.5Y and 7M and 7.5M which size should i get them?

Fr, the OG look long as he’ll and short as hell 💀

Yes, I DO think JB should bring back the retro cards. Been collecting since '92 and miss that 'ol black magic'!!
First of all nice comparison & they should definitely have the Retro cards personally I'll choose the OG's

Better quality and better shape on the new pair. End of story

I agree the new ones look better overall. And come in better packaging.

Forreal I miss the retro card
Thats why the 06 is the real one and the 2021 is fake
They definitely need to bring that card back
U never miss on your og vs retro reviews 🔥🔥
I need the those Jordan 4s 🔥🔥🔥
Really enjoyed this video comparison. 💪🔥
In terms of the retro card. They should bring these back. The difference between extraordinary and ordinary is that little "extra"
Would be nice but they will take advantage and add another $10 for that.
Bro happy asf bro. I finally finished my 1 threw 6 jordan all in new condition. My retro 2 came in today i was like you. Ahhh you got the shoe. I grabbed the jordan 2 decon all black with the suede
love the 2021 but man i cant unsee the mesh sizing, gotta give the og that but everything else 2021 lets go
man ima finally order these sunday. So excited to own a pair of these!

Air jordan 7 mike with bugs
Amazing video! Loved it so much
That 06’ banana shape was thee worst shit smh
Dope video og
Them 06s have my ❤️ and i remember how easy it was to cop the limited stuff but the new jawns 🔥 automatic cop
Appreciate this comparison
I NEEED THESE BAAAADDDDD!!!!!! I MISSED ON THESE YEARS AGO AND NEED REDEMPTION
I just like the 2006 shape more but they did good on the new one
Your 2006 pair is in crazy condition
wish the 2021 pair had actual suede and not nubuck.. the 06' color was much better but imma cop the '21 of course
2021 pair is way better at all aspects than the 2006. The older pair on the side view looks like banana shape. Good thing Jordan Brand have decided to correct the aesthetics this time around by sticking to the OG Shape
Yea but the 2021 pair already fading the yellow already gone on the shoe the 06 pair as yet to fade like that
Luv the 06 but the 21 shape is much better.
Bro how do you get this early acces? Congrats on your channel, excelent info! Thank you very much.
A MUST.
Definitely need the retro cards bk. ASAP rocky
I was born in the early 2000s I remember the remember the retro Cards my 2006 Cardinal 7s had a retro Card
Definitely bring back the retro card
Dope video, the 2021 pair is way better n Shape and the 06 pair the Jordan on the back looks like Santa just bad
💯bring back the retro card
Retro card needs to make a comeback
I had to get these. My first pair if 4’s. I got them at 360.
I like both of them
They gotta bring the retro cards back
06 All day 2021s I could careless
Im new in U.S and dont have jordans yet but maybe soon. Love watching your videos man even I dont have Jordans 😂
You missed a detail... on the older ones the blue at the bottom of the shoe is angled and on the new version they go straight across.
Salute brother them kicks are 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yeaa I Miss The Retro Cards😩
The only video I've found that gets to the details and comparisons. All other videos spam promos and too much b roll.
Good review bro ! Like your opinions and excitement for the shoe game ! Subscribing now !!
Thank you! Welcome to the #DNAFAM 🙌🏽
Good video
Retro's are beautiful
Definitely, revive the retro cards...!
Yellow sneakers I don’t know but they are nice
Thing is do they feel different in terms of quality & comfort?

I'm from that 2000's era and I definitely remember the '06 pair. But I really like the OG shape on the '21 pair. The shape is way better than the 2006 pair
I'm born in the 2000s
where can i cop these for retail 😭🔥
Both shoes are fire, the question is... can I get a W on these J4 lightning?
From 8 to 13 size all under 300 get it now before the price go up
I rock with the 06 pair cause I’m old, I have them in my collection and I took Ls on the 2021 version 😂. Great attention to detail btw!
Def 2021!! Easy choice! I never seen the 06 in person! Yes! Retro card please!! I have the Thunders, are they the same shape the Lightning’s were??
I think the reason they don’t do retro cards anymore is cause there is just too many Jordan’s it’s gonna be hard fitting 35 Jordan’s on the card 😭
1-23
A kid In my school got these
What size are these boss man
I thought the release date was 28th August are they all ready out yet and how come ?
im tryna buy the 2021s next week or the week after, theyre at 360 now pffff but so hard....
I bought these and genuinely couldn't appreciate the bulkiness of it, if I'd seen the 2006 version first, I'd have grabbed them lol
I need those
Size 13 $296 plus stockx fees/shipping
Is the 2021 leather or no
Fire 🔥
06 way tougher imo
DJ don’t 4get about the WAFFLE PATTERN @ the bottom half on the shoe has the EXTRA PIECE on the 2021 Compared to 2006.
That 2006 shape is terrible lmao
Hey DJ…unstitched the Union 4 can ruin the value of the shoe?
they'll no longer be considered as deadstock and could cause the value to slightly go down.
They are bad ass .
I don't like how the recent Jordan nubuck shoes look wrinkled like grandpa skin before even worn. OGs does get creases also but not wrinkles like the new shoes also the 2021 cool grey 11 have the same wrinkled effect
I hit on 2 pair of uni 4s size 9 going to trade a pair for lightning size 9 and I get $80 good trade?
Bring retro card back 🗣️
Hey dj the Bottom of the 2021 pair looks to be more flat than the 06 as well
correct
Banger
I think Nike is going to do this more times. Repeat models after 10 years or more so that resales do not skyrocket. It is outrageous that some shoes today count 250 and in 3 years 1500 for example
Yeah like a red thunder rerelease or a 3rd cool grey 11
Goat
I was hoping the 2021 ones was gonna have the nike air on the back😢
the 2006 pair never had nike air on the back neither did the 2021 pair
I prefer the shape of the 2021 than the 06 banana shape.
2006, maybe cuz those were my grails and one of my favorite I owned
I remember they came out I was 6 years old in 2006
The 2006's is more better, the colorway isn't the same

Nope leave the retro cards for the og pairs!!
I’m not gonna lie,2021 look better than 06
AYYEEEE ❗️
Fight club has em for $695 is it a good price ? Or will it go lower after the release date ?
Wait
@@DNASHOW deff will thanks
@@DNASHOW deff had listen to you bro. Price went $300 down.. i also got a question bro how do they fit ?? Bc on my ragging bulls i copp a sz 7M and it fit true. Im a sz 7.5 in every other shoe. But i was checking this 4s and they have 7.5Y and 7M and 7.5M which size should i get them?
Must cop 300 or less on the resale side I already no what's bout to happen.
OG's are def richer in color.
2021
Nobody is gonna comment on the jumpman logo on the 2006 version?
