I got my Whit Yang Yang for $65 at Nike clearance. Saw them as low as $39 at Nike outlet in Charlottesville, VA. Wanted to cop a 2nd pair in size 12 to get customized but they only had 9-10.5’s.
Right! Everyone complains and is wants to know if a 1 has “shattered backboard leather”. Hyper royals and bloodlines come out with amazing soft leather and they both sit 🤦🏻♂️😂
@@yo_soy_tony6174 Yep, you're right. The Midnight Navy Japan 1's are not a real hyped up shoe, but man is the leather quality very nice on those. The suede is pretty good on them too. They we're not hyped up like Mocha 1's we're, but the leather quality is much better on the Midnight Navy's.
i found sum jordan access from the outlet im not a sneaker head but i like having sum good style tbh so i bought em for $60 and there great i’ve actually gotten ppl thinkin there 1s but there pretty good being ion like pricy shi being im 13 and js want good style lol
Air Jordans "only" going $70 above retail is considered a failure lol. Meanwhile, LeFlop James sneakers, Zoom Freaks, PGs, Kyries LIVE at every outlet before the season even starts.
Do ANY new GR performance basketball shoes have resale nowadays? Even Kobes used to sit there as well until he died and Nike/Vanessa essentially killed the line.
It’s crazy to think how trends get recycled. I no longer question people who I see stocking up on shit I have no clue about. Every body just trying to catch the next wave before it hits shores.
Lets be honest, people always talking about leather quality but in reality they don’t really care, all they see is the colorway, those hyper royals comes next after sbb when it comes to how soft the leather is
@@DjVader112 I use to laught at people Tripping over leather quality but after I got some I see why they want good leather. It’s comfortable on feet. That leather they put on mids ãn lows hurt my feet but the hood leather they put on the highs feel good.
Lol not true. The hype has been bad since 2012 at least. I’m 36 and have been doing this since the late 80’s. Wasn’t until 2010-2011 when things started getting stupid.
@@Lixxo lol it was happening way before tiktok came along, bud. I’m 36 and been into shoes since the late 80’s and I started noticing it getting REALLY bad in 2011ish. eBay helped as well because before them, you didn’t have anywhere to resell the shoes other than your own community.
@@GraV21 im not disagreeing saying there wasnt any hype, im just saying tiktok kids have been overhyping shoes in the present time in the past 2-3 years.
The Metallic Red 1s were sitting for months at my local Footlocker when they came out, so long that they marked them down to $110. Doubled up for the price of a resale brick, now the hypebeasts and the trendy Tik Tok bozos fkd the whole game up.
That’s why I know for a fact that just about every AJ1 High that released this year, would’ve went on sale or hit the outlets if hypebeast and tik-tok heads didn’t overhype everything. I could see the Electric Orange and McDonald’s colorway sitting right now if it was 2016.
@@littlevideos6076 pollens are one of the best quality of J1s that I have and I have University Blues and Mocha which are the best selling J1s this past two years
Common thread for all of these is that they are all very monotone. Not much creativity and color blocking doesn't add visual interest. They don't look like fashionable shoes, but remind me of mids.
I used to see the phantom gym reds at almost every footlocker when I was about 10 years old and I begged my dad to buy them for me but he never did, I’m now about 14 and a half and there are still my favorite shoe, hopefully I can have them one day
I remember those days. If only I knew then, what I know now... Live and learn. The only one I have is the jordan 1 he got game hyper royal blue. I copped it at 70 dollars.
I copped the City Of Flights for $79 at Foot Locker when they hit the sale rack. The ice sole sucks. The laces are terrible. They seem to tighten more each time I wear the shoes. They've been living in my closet for a few years. I might bleach the soles and throw some new laces on them. The leather is high quality. They have that going for them.
I brought royal flyknit 1s for $60 at footlocker in 2018, crazy how after the Travis Scott 1s drop every Jordan 1 that wasn’t a og colorways is now sought after in 2021. too bad in this time any Jordan 1 sells faster than a bottle of water in a desert.
I have the City of Flights and love them - the leather is pretty stiff, but I love the look. Got them a couple years ago before the hype went crazy, 9.5/10 used on ebay for like $80.
It’s hard to believe that these were so cheap but back in 2015/2018 everyone wanted to rock ardidas boost/sock shoes, this sort of “chunky” sneaker was considered really unfashionable, I remember people getting mocked for wearing dunks back then, crazy to think about but everyone was wearing tight skin skinny jeans, this type of shoe was pretty hard to pull off with the clothing trends of the time.
I owned two pairs of Jordan 1s in the 80s that I bought for $10 each. $20 later and skating them for a year, they were fully chewed up with holes. Blame the Bones Brigade! Looking back, I wish I had bought five more pairs! Haha!
Man I wish I didn’t wear my ying yangs. I could of made profit. They still in really good shape though. Anybody got any advice where to sell them ? Only worn 2x
I got the city of flights for 75 bucks at finish line when they were sitting and I checked stock X when I first got them and I felt cheated knowing I could have got them cheaper but I guess I won in the long run
middle of 2017 I found two pair of metallic navys at my local outlet (palm desert) in my size but only had enough $ for one of em and wasn't sure about policy, didn't wanna push it :P. Paid no more than like $95 which seems bonkers looking at the prices these days. They are surprisingly crispy and still worn regularly! edit: I remember seeing some Lettermans then too, and for months on store shelves closer to home. And I def still don't like em either lol
Now do one on the random SB Dunks that used to sit on clearance at the Nike Outlets lol. I remember seeing full size runs of the Dunk Low SB Decon in all black nubuck sitting at like $35 for a year straight. And now they’re magically worth $350+ on Goat? 💀💀💀
I swear. I got a super ugly color way for $50 to wear as beaters and now they are asking for $594. And the funniest thing is I doubt anyone would want to buy them even now because they are that irrelevant
@@tammyariel2982 literally. I remember even on Ebay back when Dunks were dead I used to be able to buy pairs hella early for like $20 over retail. Now every dunk is magically worth double retail immediately.
i actually copped the letterman's back in 2017 for 110 bucks (my size) from the Indian amazon .. I kept them at my grandma's and totally forgot abt the shoe only to find it almost a year later in a crisp but dusty still with the lace bag attached .. and to this date I beat them so hard that the half of the sole has gone white
I remember the turbo green 1’s sat and went to outlets in some cities. Now my size (10.5) is going for close to $600. Also the Jordan 1 metallic blue and metallic red went to outlets for $79. Now those are going for $400-$500. Insane.
City of Flight 1s were the last retro 1s that I remember getting from outlets. Translucent sole was a bad idea and I wasn't a fan of the tumbled leather.
I can constantly get Jordan 1s at my Nike outlet for dirt cheap! $70-$80-$100 I'm not tellin where cuz its just too easy!. Just keep looking... they are always showing up. I live 3 miles from a major outlet store and its awesome!
GUYS PLEASE, if you have Jordan 1s or see Jordan 1s that aren't going for anything please get them or keep em in good condition, I have so much Jordan 1s that I bought for either retail or under retail and beat them up because they were cheap now all of them are going for $300+ just wait and then sell em if you want, it may take a while for them to mark up but they will
Wish people didn’t buy to resell I love aj1 and dunks I have a pair of each and I wear them all day everyday absolutely love them. I have and will never buy a pair of shoes for 600$+ crazy stuff just gonna buy fakes
I stopped wearing fashion trainers I only wear handmade Crown Northampton trainers now where you actually get what you pay for and not just some shoe made for $10 and they charge $250. The crown Northampton trainers I wear are made of the best materials and are actually put together like top end handmade dress shoes. They aren’t cheap at £650 a pair but they’re worth every penny unlike Nike shoes which would be $25 if they didn’t have the whoosh.
Copped a pair of yin and yangs for my wife and myself for under 100$ she got the white ones i got the black ones both in like new condition!! Sheesh some shoe doc and i just save myself 150 bucks !! Lol
I wish Jordan’s would be sitting in outlets like back then 😭
i wish they sat and i bought them, and then they become raRE again
