Shoezeum On Owning $1 Million Worth of Kicks
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 тра 2015
- www.sneakerwatc... - When it comes to sneakers as a business, Jordy of Shoezeum is no stranger. Growing up in the era of Michael Jordan, Jordy discussed with us the development of his own shoe selling business along with the creation of his Shoezeum. Making the swap meet his friend, Jorday managed to strike gold through his love for kicks as being a culture and a business. Ultimately reaching around 15k pairs of shoes at his peak, Jordy estimated that at one point he sat on roughly $1M worth of shoes.
As a result of making large amounts of money through the reselling of Nike's products, Jordy was officially banned by the brand in 2009. Shutting down the business in 2010, Jordy decided to go another route by building his very own shoe museum to capture the history of Nike.
Sending letters to Nike about his project, Jordy was able to actually meet some of the Nike brand execs such as Mark Parker and Tinker Hatfield, just to name a couple.
Check out the exchange in our video above and let us know if you think it was right for Nike to ban Jordy in our comments section below.
He seems a nice guy & this is pretty interesting.
Jay Smith naw bro he's a reseller
Jordan Lin so resellers can't be nice guys?
Jordan Lin He resold for under retail lol
***** damn middle guys taxing
carlos mendez it's called business. What business is it not like that?
I am so proud of this interview. Thank you *****!!
Jordan Geller jordy!! Nice work man!!
Teach me Jordan Geller!
SneakerHead Cris u nothing but a hater
Dana white collects shoes too ?
OMG he does look like dana white
tacomexican lover no
he looks like jim norton
+Keanu “keeyzii” Guzman Shoezeum "Dana White" and The Mayor "Drake" - it's all good.
+Swank Sinatra he looks like he has more money than you to
so basically nike was upset cause someone was eating besides them.....
What I respect about Jordy, highlights that people who love sneakers can also sell them. There's a big difference in the mentality of someone with no connection/love for the shoes they're reselling versus someone using reselling to fulfill a more ambitious sneaker goal. Knows the history, knows the culture, and loves shoes. That's awesome.
julianreed7 no such thing as sneaker culture
@@jason41482 there definitely is
follow the rules !!?? what rules ? why did they ban him in the first place ?
This is one smart dude
NINTIMBO DS Lmao u srs?
NINTIMBO DS j
+NINTIMBO DS but how does that change his intelligence.
Guy hustles.
He looks like an over enthusiastic egg
1029384756 😭💯
1029384756 He looks like someone who has more money in sneakers than you do in your bank account
💀
An over enthusiastic egg that's AMAZING!
Jordy is that dude!!! #respect
franalations uuu iiiiuuuuu.
This dude might be Kane from WWE
LMFAOOO
Im confused what store stocks 20 thousand shoes
honestly you are such an inspiration. you followed your dreams, and you did what you had to to make money and make a living. when we do things we are passionate about for a living, that is where greatness emerges. you did exactly that. I applaud you for sticking with it, and never giving up hope. keep doing what you are.
Noticed from Facebook this morning and I just liked the page.
And guess what I saw your Shoezeum on youtube now.
After I knew the story behind of Shoezeum and your passion on these treasury shoes.
I was like WOW!
Really really respect you :)
He is the reason why i don't like shoes anymore. He embodies everything that is wrong with sneaker culture today.
Your nuts.that's a stupid reason
I agree
Your a fucking an idiot this guy is in love with shoes, and knows the hole history about them check out his youtube page. Hes both a collector, seller, and a person who wears shoes. People gotta make money somehow, and if he just took advantage of nikes mistake. Its because of him its real hard to make alot of money reselling. Dumb ass
No such thing as sneaker culture
Nathaniel Hernandez the "hole" industry. you have the iq of a basketball
How is it Nike's business what he does with his sneakers wtf
Exactly!!!! Don’t you love how we live in a “capitalistic” society when it suits the wealthy. When one of us try’s to climb the ladder you get smacked in the face with socialism.
@@renaissancemen1 shut the fuck up stalin
I don't know if anyone has done it this big. You were truly ahead of your time my friend.
Why he built like a lobster😂😂
oh look it's Mr. Krabs
So is he trynna be skinny or fat? I'm confused...
Bruh 😂😂😂
+Scarlett Brooke Martinez Gonzales omfg!!!
lmbo
This is the reason resellers exist. He low balled a sneaker for $2,000 and wants to sell it for $100,000
IISourAyyII You're blaming just him? There is gonna be resellers in any collector community.
IISourAyyII You think this guy is like the standard reseller who has 10 pairs of 88 Cement 3s? You kidding..
IISourAyyII what the fuck do you think a economy is based on
This is how businesses run if ppl actually thought things thru or noticed how even the smallest stores run they all the same they dont get rich by buying expensive shit n sellin cheap
IISourAyyII Not wants to sell them. HE DOES SELL THEM.
YOUR BEST INTERVIEW YET!!!!
Was always curious to know the whole story behind the Shoezeum and Jordie's history with Nike. So interesting. Thanks for sharing, SneakerWatch and Jordie!
Great story Jordy. Great job Sneakerwatch!
I wanna know how he makes his money now, since he cant sell any of the 1 million dollar collection and cant buy and resell shoes anymore
Watch it again man xD
Kaboom Rico he cant sell nike's like he used to
joey somers he can still sell any shoe that he has
kostik conbad i think nike wont allow that
Well he actually recently just got another letter from Nike that lets him purchase their products again. So he resells and his a lawyer
what kind of company stops you from buying their product?
im high af watching this whilst playing chill instrumentals in the background, this is amazing ha
Man bro, that is one of the BEST stories I ever heard in my life! Thank You for sharing your story cause it's absolutely AMAZING!!!
He's a sneakerhead with a business mind. No matter how much you hate this guy for reselling you gotta give this guy props for hustling from the bottom.
If you haven’t, check out the video he did w Skee. Jordy is a legend.
Great story and seems like a genuine guy! Very well said and well spoken! The Shoezeum lives on!
JORDAN GELLAR JUMPMAN BOSTIC THE MAYOR
Gun Rule THE PERFECT PAIR
Watched it again....inspiration! Nice work, Vlad.
Passionate is the word to describe this man. Did what he wanted to always do. Cool shit
story could be a movie
Too bad that eBay door ain't open like that now. It's a long grind to get somewhere on eBay now.
I wonder how many people have called nike after he said the number
Country boy 850 You can find the number everywhere. It's the customer service number.
One of the only times I've watched a video this long haha so interesting
Vlad really interviews everyone the same way
thats strange the guy was so amazed at the museum you had built and said to keep it where it is and how it is but they only gave you 3 months rent, why wouldnt they have just bought the warehouse right out A company worth tens of billions im suprised
His employee traveling the road was OBVIOUSLY getting shoes for himself and selling them as well. He’s just going to travel the road for you and not get his piece of the pie ?
He Is Basically A Wanted SneakerDealer
This just goes to show that we should pick our passions and turn them into a career
i work for you in a heartbeat keep doing it up
Man at first I didn't like dude by the end of the interview I got respect for him dude know grind and got hustle very smart man respect
Lmao he got screwed alot
xGettinxMoneyx thats what happens when you try to strive to be at the top~ getting screwed "alot" is an understatement
roksoulja84 Lmfao tru
White ppl are smart, my ppl buy shoes to wear they buy shoes to sell for a profit, smh, salute to him!
This guy is a lawyer and a entrepreneur the average consumer isn't a entrepreneur nor or they a lawyer. But there are tons of people selling shoes online
Anti Hypebeast shut yo uncle tom ass up
Anti Hypebeast Nigga you dumb as shit...
Anti Hypebeast no ones mad you just compared your average consumer to a entrepreneur which isnt logical at all.
Word my nigga
"I wanna be downnnnn" plays in my head.
What a great story. Thanks for sharing Jordan
Dude interviewing sounds like dj Vlad
if you want to interview me next, my schedules free next friday haha
That is one hell of a story O.o
This Guy Is A FuckingBoss! He's Bossy!!! Cant No One Touch This Guy's Collection. I thought i had a Huge Collection.
That is a great fucking story, this guy is amazing, a god damn legend
I'm going to the Nike Outlet tomorrow damn it!
He says that like people who grew up in the 90's didn't grow up in the Jordan era! That's when his popularity was at its peak!
I wish this story had a better ending. That company has enough money to buy him the damn warehouse and add exclusive shoes but all it did was pay $16k in rent.
Dope story. Love how he took being banned and turned it into a positive by starting the Shoezeum
them boxes the breds are on tho hmmmm.....lol
Banned 1s
Best video o have watched on UA-cam yet
This was amazing..
ayyye shout out to kissimmee florida
I'm just still wondering WHY Nike banned him in the first place? I'm not sure what happened as he was telling the story of being banned.
l kofie making profit off of them
guys a marketing and business genius. total respect
Good business man. Respect the hustle
Every Video This Guy Is In And The Ask Him A Question He Just Start To Blush 😄😄
Great interview
This is amazing. Great story!
Finesse Gawd
I wonder why he didn't charge for people to come and check out the nike museum and maybe nike if nike liked it so much they could have gave him a pair of every new pair of nikes that came out do you know how many people would love to go to see a tour of all the old and new sneakers and show and tell the history of the shoe and he could have his own private shoe store on line or at the Nike museum have a 5 dollar on line tour of exclusives lots of possibilities if you have a relationship with the top people and they like your idea and helped you out get a patent on your idea or whatever who knows
Perception is amazing. You would never believe this man shits on EVERY sneaker head who claims they cant be fucked with. The official SNEAKERHEAD KING
How he making a profit if he gotta pay shipping after he selling the shoes for so cheap?
what is he's ebay ?
how did he get all his og jordans and rare stuff? they dont sell that stuff out outlets
eBay
jamil pegues so i'm assuming he paid a lot over retail for those
That was awesome!
Did anybody call the number he said at 7:58
Simply incredible
This dude doesn't know if he wants to be skinny or fat
LOL
Gotta respect his hustle...
Damn! Banned! Great video!

Awesome watch
What an amazing story.

what are the rules he broke.? to get banned?
This the the brother from something about Mary?!
Amazing story.
This is why I would rather deal with a manufacturer instead of searching for retail bargains. I talk to Chinese factories on becoming a dealer buying at wholesaler prices
bout to start hitting up outlets nearby
