I've been rocking Air Jordan shoes since the original 8s in 1993 and haven't looked back since. I've been after Chicago 1s for over 20 years and can't get my hands on a pair of these or bred 1s to save my life. Hopefully my luck will change this time around. I'd be happy with 1 pair but I'm going after 2 for years of pain and suffering. Wish me luck and pray for me folks!
I was 15 years old in 1986, got my first pair for my 16th birthday (lost ever since and not found 😊). It was SO EASY to buy the 2015 version in Footlocker for instance… (at least in Europe). Of course it was before StockX, the bots, and the reselling madness 😅
I was a few years younger in 86, but I remember how bad I wanted a pair. My parents wouldn’t drop the cash for Nike, but my grandma did haha. Wasn’t much left of them by the time I was done wearing them. Pretty sure my toes were sticking out the front before I gave them up. These will mean a lot for me…definitely doing what it takes to get a pair.
That’s cap. It was not easy to walk into Foot Locker in 2015 to cop these. I camped overnight to get these and they were sold out everywhere. Foot Locker was doing raffles as well at that time. The demand was a lot bigger than the supply in 2015.
Thank you so much! Finally a UA-camr that tells it like it is - these won’t be super easy to cop, but def a lot more accessible than other UA-camrs are making it out to be. I already got a pair through EA last week, and my girls SNKRS app just hit on the pass today so I’m doubled up and good! Might still try to enter tomorrow and give it to a buddy for retail but honestly this hasn’t been hard to get
Honestly I don’t think I truly appreciate these as much as others do probably because I haven’t been around that long in sneakers. I would love to have them since my two favorite pairs are my taxi 1’s and Georgetown 1 85 highs.
@@OCCollects Man don’t listen to those people, we all were fresh in the game at one point. If you’re a fan of 1s you’ll like those. Even if they’re not that crazy to you now, you might get them in hand and grow to love them.
@@gzdaboss443 I got mine used 8.5/10 in mistery box so it was more then welcome, also then I gve them to my cleaning guy who bring them back to 9.5/10, so they are spot on, comparing with my DS pair of 2015s that I got for birthday. Honestly those 2015 are muuch better then this overhyped L&F, which resell price won't get over 400$ at most, but I think even thst is a bit too much.
@@walkerstalker4494 how is shoe going less than 2015 pair overhyped? What kinda contradicting statement is that lmao. Just enjoy your 2015 pair then & sit out on this release then lol tf. No matter what you say it's not worth paying for 2015 pair now that we got L&F
Hello from Oregon, I'm looking forward to these. I held off on the Midnight Navy to try for these. A must have for any Nike collector. Thank you for the review.
I coped two pairs after 5 diff tries on FL and SNKRS . So happy. Ive never ever won. To win this is so, so good. It’s a Chicago but with a beautiful twist and an ingenious story
I got mine from flight club when my size dropped to $306. Then it went back up. I don’t see this shoe dropping to under $350. As a collector I couldn’t gamble on hitting for retail , enough though I’ll still try. This shoe along with the black cement 3 and the concord 11 are must haves for me personally
I feel you I pre ordered mine for $500 when prices were 1200 and before anyone knew the stock numbers. But I need to guarantee my pair. Chicago 1,true blue 3 and Concord 11 are my grails got them all but the Chicago but those will ship on release. My last two cops will be the 2s coming out and those navy 4s and I'm done.
Ahhh I gotta be patient 😅 ima get that W 🙋🏾♂️. I like the aged distressed look a lot better then the brand spanking new Chicago, in my opinion it gives more character.
I'm a og and I still have my original pair of 85/86 Chicago 1's and several pairs of the 2015 Chicago 1's so these are a easy pass for me. I'll make an attempt to get them on the sneakers app but no loss if I don't hit. I've had these in hand and they are cheesy and cheap looking. Good luck to everyone trying to get them. Another great video and review!😎👍
Something tells me we’re getting Chicagos in the next 2-3 years. I’ve never had any Chicagos. When I was in high school Nike was putting the jordan logo on the tongue of the highs so I never wore Jordan 1s. Always wore 3-14s. Didn’t get into 1s (to keep) until maybe this year. I’ve only ever owned the clay greens (sold) and the Taxis. Im doubling up on these.
I’m not young so I nor my family was in the financial situation to have these back when they first released, so knowing my first Jordan 1s today are the lost and found. It’s so fitting for me. They are projected to hit 2k on Xmas if there is no restock. Either way I feel vindicated owning these and will not sell.
I think people are realizing that it’s not a regular og pair. The cracked paint kinda ruins it. Still a solid pair but it’s not a regular og Chicago 1.
Nah hypebeast's don't like them bc the value went down. If these ever go back up to $900 plus everyone opinions will change. Yall was just calling these sneaker of year not too long ago lml
@@gzdaboss443 still a Chicago 1 so I don’t think prices really matter. Prices started to go down once more videos came out and people saw that they looked way different than what everyone thought they would be and the actual stock number was high.
@@stonkman3805 nah ppl not paying that kind of money to resellers anymore. They all panick selling rn bc of the stock numbers lol tf you talking about. All the vulture cultures leaving da game. If this drop during 2020 it would've been hyped up crazy
I’ve been blessed by sneakers god with a EA on SNKRS. Thinking I wasn’t gonna hit on them because of the statement that SNKRS put out. I’ve hit on Jordan 1 a few times so I don’t know!! I’m definitely cop a few more if I can
I just want a solid pair of highs I’ve only had the gortec and some la ones from like 2017. A lot of mids and lows. But these have to be my favorite pair been wanting some Chicago 1s since I started liking shoes lol
I’d say if you don’t hit on release date cop in that 1-2 week period after the show drops. Set a realistic number that is comfortable for you to pay at resale. You can also sell sneakers you already have.
there nice just would be nice if they just re-release the 2015 version being how ridiculous the resale price is not everyone was able to get the Chicago's and I'll decide how beat up they get for that vintage look.
i have no job ( looking) but my plan is hoping that these shoes go 250 - 350 for a year or so if not o well time to wait another 5-10 years for another chicago
Now since the mold issue Technically its not the hype anymore that shoes is very iconic that shoes will end up in the display case due to its fame and scarcity the price will spike up minimum 500$ its just the way it is.... supply and demand its gonna be hoarded specially Christmas is fast approaching and bonus 🤣 happy hunting guys

Then sit out on this release. Alot yall culture vulture just getting into sneakers. That's why the culture ruin in the 1st place

Too clean. Bred toe 2018 is still better for me but still would buy this for my collection and addition to my red colorways.
So much praise given for the story, yet Nike killed off all the mom and pop stores after they helped establish the brand.

Straight and too the point, keep doing ya thang mike
I will never understand why anyone still looks at pre release prices as an indicator of hype, they obviously go down as soon as they release.
Imagine if they woulda made these 85’ cuts?!? Whoooh
Them Chicago 1’s he pulled out we’re not beat to the ground 😂😂
Beautiful shoe. The Chicago OG High colorway is a must cop. Everything else is just derivative.
didn’t wanna risk the L. Got my pair from goat today 😅
I had to have these so I ordered off GOAT and it's my first pair of Jordans so I'd say totally worth it

Lost and Found over > Chicago 2015 any day all day.
Crazy
Facts I like these better. Got some flare to it

Thank you bro!
I need these so I can fix that cracking black top. I’m not with it 🤦♂️
Gonna have to fix the white parts too because it’s the same cracked paint.
got my pair today, i stocked size 10.5 x3 for future investment just in case. my frind gave me few pairs because he had sneakers apparel shop
Got them today via Exclusive Access, couldnt belive it
Oo wow, Weeknd. You my fav artist!!!
How those NFTs doing bro?
Your 2015s are not beat. That OCD nature is not good for upcoming sneakerheads.

Unless I cop on drop, I ain’t sweating it. Like 300 for a sneaker? It’s a pass for me.
Where you get that hoodie bro? 🔥
