Laughable how everyone hated on these when early leaks started but once people see the exclusivity and resale they say “it’s growing on me.” Lmao. No, the price/hype is slapping you in the face.
I actually like when Buckets gives these different perspective ratings. Just like art, you look at sneakers through different lenses. Totally agree with the “vacuum” perspective, btw. Cant wait for the review on the lows 🤞🤞
The reason these are so pricey isn’t because of fragment lol. That definitely adds to the hype but the reason is because they created this bullshit artificial exclusivity in the market by not really releasing them to the public, the people that want to wear them. The large majority of people that got them were friends & family, celebrities, higher ups in companies, and resellers that botted the fuck out of the releases. Only a very small percentage of people that purchased were people that got extremely lucky and hit on a raffle. If they released on snkrs and weren’t so backdoored and botted, they would be sitting around 800-1200.
@@jaykeyz2730 it is not supply and demand, if each pair went to a corresponding customer respectively they would certainly not be that high resale wise. People insert themselves between as much of the supply as possible, inflate the price and drive up the demand of the same product that was scalped to begin with. No different than buying concert tickets and reselling out side the venue. Supply and demand is not an all encompassing term to defend scalping practices.
@@jamilleedwards733 This is exactly right. We as the consumers see it, it's the corporations that do absolutely nothing to put an end to this problem. These price gouging scalpers are despicable, and use raffle bots, and instant checkout bots to eat up all the inventory. 2 guys were able to check out more than 2 hundred pairs. Has Nike done anything about it? No, pre-orders could easily put an end to this garbage, but I guess it just makes too much sense... Oh and how can we forget about the backdoor plugs? A bunch of shysters and vultures that fucked up the shoe game.↓
The color blocking is heavily inspired by a sample pair from 85. There are some pics if you Google around for a bit. That makes this even less off an effort. Especially considering that its Travis, Fragment and Jordan combined.
I love Jordan brand but the resell for them just does not make "cents" to me. Not paying 3K for a $200 shoe. Much like the Yeezy slides I'm not paying $200 or $300 for a $60 dollar slide. Just my opinion. I mean if I want a shoe bad enough I will pay resell but I do have limits and 3k is passed my limit lol. I understand this is where the shoe community is when it comes to retail and resell .... So hey I guess it really comes down to if you want the shoe pay the 3k no judgement . -Metrogem P
Everyone is bitching that the J 1 Electro Orange looks like an unfinished shoe with too much white in the back of the shoe. Yet you love these, which are the same way in reverse with way too white on the side panels and the front. 🤷♂️ If these weren’t a TS collab shoe, no one would want it.
Negative, I like the electro Orange just as much as I like the original shattered backboard. Also passed down the original Travis Scott's (don't like the hype around the shoe) but I did get the Mocha Black because I like its color way. And I'm probably going to pass on this TS sneaker too but if they come out a regular Nike Blue, White, and Black similar to the Mocha Black, I'll cop that too.
@@Mack_Worlds_Media go across that water u can get anything u want and its all the same thing bro fuck Nike they know these shit wear all botted by SCALPERS/RESELLERS they dont care about us we don't owe them no loyalty and 99% of people will never know if that's wat ya worry about I got both lows and high and I WEAR WITH CONFIDENCE
Respectfully the shoe isn't anything special IMO the color blocking isn't that good the lows are better IMO. Who wears fragment clothing except Avatars in Pokemon Go. Salutes homer and buckets.
The lows feel and look better because the color blocking isn’t so extended and drawn out as the highs. The full white panel messes up the shoe on the highs imo.
So the story behind these is that hiroshi saw a sample pair that never released from the 80's, and he wanted to make it his own. HOWEVER, when talking to Travis about it, travis wanted the og fragment colorway but with the travis swoosh. Eventually they came to the agreement that one pair would be the sample and one would be the og frags, although trav didn't have a preference over which, hiroshi felt that if both frag high models looked the same with a different swoosh, there'd be no reason to get one over the other. So; hiroshi decided the sample pair would be the hightop with travis' swoosh, and the lowtop would be an aged pair of the og frags.
The color blocking has grown on me, and I like these more than Travis’ and Fragment’s original Jordan 1’s, especially after learning about the unreleased og sample that the colorway is based off of. 8.5/10, but screw the resale prices. I’ll be trying for the lows
Finally picked up a pair for $2500 & they are my new faves. As a car guy, simple aesthetics are always the best. Do not like Off-Whites because they have too much going on, they remind me of ricers with their fart canisters, ground scraping body kits, huge flying wing & rims angled to travel through time.
Couldn't agree with you more about the collaborative point. Fragment didn't do anything but a stamp on the heel. SMH. The brand is so overrated. Haven't seen any aesthetically impressive collab yet.
lets see if the energy was matched with red heritage version, color blocking is still the same leather might be better on these bad boys.... lets see if we caught us another hype trout!!!🐠
Hype aside. I think this is a very dope pair of sneaker. It gives a fresh color blocking for air jordan 1 high, instead of the same colorway we have been seeing again and again such as bred toe, black toe and the chicago colorway blocking.
I’ll take a shot for the lows’s on SNKRS but if I don’t get them no big deal great review and I would never pay over retail for anything that is Travis Scott
Just now watching this review with the knowledge of this colorway being an unreleased sample of the AJ1. I feel like that alone puts a lot of prestige on the shoe.
I don’t know why they tried to recreate the wheel with the white on this shoe. People love the og fragments and the resale value is ridiculous. If you had a chance to re release that without diluting it, they should’ve just did that.
They just took the Reverse Royal 1 samples and flipped the swoosh while adding Fragment and Travis Scott markings. Just capitalizing on hype. The lows are better and seems like they put more effort into them as well
I tried for these just because and took an L. Tried for the lows and didn’t really care for them either..another L. Time went on and I hit exclusive access on the lows and after having them in hand I really love the lows. Based on what I’ve seen with the highs I absolutely prefer the Lows and I don’t even like low top sneakers. The color blocking and attention to detail sold it for me. Definitely happy I have them now.
The J35 fragments did also have the royal and black colorway. I mean the 3s that came out with them didn't but it could def be said that fragment is partial to this colorway.
I'm 2/2 on Travis Scott's website and I didn't even get to try for these since I had a meeting start the same time they released. I was so pissed when I got out of that meeting lol.
This pair perfectly represents the sheep mentality in the sneaker community. People hate the change in color blocking simply because someone said so, yet they still would have wanted a pair.
Price is ridiculous , that’s resellers and greed . Not the shoes fault , I don’t judge it on that . Personally, I think they are a 9 , foamers score is real world. Buckets 🪣 is off his Rocker IMO . Yes, I have the First version and this one too . I think the suede Travis is better … but not by much .
Not really resellers, more nikes fault. Snkrs didnt even drop them besides for very small access in japan and there was little to no stock actually released to the public.
I may be biased because I hit on the Travis Scott Frag 1s on the Travis Scott website for retail. Since day one leaks I loved the color blocking and then I learned that the color blocking is based off an unreleased/sample color way of an 1985 Jordan 1 which is super cool. The pink stash pocket is a small detail but it’s so cool. Overall I like this shoe and would have gone for it even without the Travis Scott or Fragment name. I also like the highs more than the lows. I rate these as a 9 out of 10 excellent shoe.
These retail? If so those cross that water look on point and I hit retail on raffle and my order went from TN to NY to my state VT back to TN today not sure WTF happened but its not cool!
I kind of like how they start throwing different designs and Collabs just like with Travis Scott the Air Jordan one is one I see that you cannot ruin when you’re designing it and I think they did a good job on the shoe I love it thank you Mr. former Simpson I hope you do the Travis lows
I don’t really get why people are complaining about the lack of collaboration in these. 90% of all fragment Nike releases are simple. This is basically a super collaboration of 2 of the most hyped Jordan 1s in the last 10 years, the fragment 1s and the Travis 1s. I don’t know what else people expect. The price is so wild on them because they are so limited. The lows will be more plentiful, but in a couple years time people like buckets and yourself will appreciate them more.
Agree with Buckets 4 1/2 if not just a plain 4 on these🤷🏻♂️ given the previous color choices for other TS Nike’s Fragment could’ve gone with a similar color palette or just not the blue
yeah i do agree. like off-white does put something from their flavor that is obviously collaborative to another brand for example. It's like a child that has looks or facial features from both of her parent. Slapping a logo on a shoe doesn't mean that you have really collaborated or contributed from a design point of view. Not all hype shoe are well thought out. It's just creating hype without any substance or value in design. it's just a good shoe to make some profit if you got them for retail. I'll give it a 5.
I have the og highs but i never got the chance to buyin the lows .. so i’d rather pay resell on the og lows and the new lows and with that i call it a day
Got a pair for retail, not yet sure if I'm gonna rock em or flip em. I like the mocha TS 1 more than these, but I agree with your thoughts on the pair. Still gonna keep em tho for the meantime
Laughable how everyone hated on these when early leaks started but once people see the exclusivity and resale they say “it’s growing on me.” Lmao. No, the price/hype is slapping you in the face.
Don’t believe the hype. They’re not very good.
Well said hahaha
@@Kardiack8Arrest the swoosh is an off for me, but I would love to have the shoe even without the influence of hype.
@@incarnadinehue2674 I would too. I’ve seen and have worse shoes.

Way too much white in the front for me. Would’ve looked better if they added some black to it or something for me. Similar to the lows they made.
I've seen an electro orange myself, the colourway is not a problem for me. But it stinks like plastic, it shows that the quality is poor
Buckets giving real scores. Foamer still lovin everything lol
the lows are better than the highs never gonna change my mind
Way better... But I can't afford neither so my opinion don't count 😂

Always thought the backwards swoosh should be on the inside and keep the OG look for the outside. The open space makes it look tacky.

That’s what you gotta do… take your L and keep on truckn!

Just now watching this review with the knowledge of this colorway being an unreleased sample of the AJ1. I feel like that alone puts a lot of prestige on the shoe.
I love my 1st travis Scott 1 pair way more than these
The resell price is absolutely ridiculous. Never would pay $3500-4000 for these.
Shouts to Buckets for his honesty. It’s important to forget the attached name and maintain perspective. 4.5 for me too on this one.
@MeDiAAiDeM this has nothing to do with sneaker reviews. Please don’t do this again
Great vid! Love the camera work and music for a comprehensive look at these joints

Buckets being real. Two thumbs up for Buckets.
Been patiently waiting for this 👀⚡🌵🥶

Thank you buckets and foams. Buckets, I agree.

Same here but I got 1 pair of the highs.
