- The Union LA x Bephies Beauty Supply Air Jordan 1 collaboration celebrates the Summer of 1996, the first time Union LA owner Chris Gibbs met his now wife Beth Gibbs who owns Bephies Beauty Supply.
When images of this shoe first released, the reactions were pretty polarizing with a very unique and differently constructed upper sole. Check out my in depth review including colorway, materials, quality, size and comfort. On feet and lace swap included!

I love these. Already secured my size 9.5. Gotta respect unions risk taking on their collabs and they usually don’t miss
Everyone wears 9.5. With that being said. I got my pair also
Got them and I’m already purchasing the turquoise lace on them 🔥🔥
Got mine and I’m super hyped for them. I love the story and how different they are. I think I’m rocking the yellow laces
Thanks! I love these and waiting on mine to arrive. WEAR WHAT YOU LIKE! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Can’t wait to see them in person and thank you for another great review🥰 last your tattoo sleeve is beautiful
Thank you!
Art imitates life and time and time again Union delivers that on every collaboration. Love the story, presentation, and overall uniqueness of this sneaker.
Can’t wait for mines to arrive! Solid review bro!
Thank you! Hope you get yours soon 🤞
I love how different these are and I am going for them the only caveat I have with them is they look a bit longer to me I’m not sure if I’m tripping. Thanks for your honest and dope review. 😊
Yep the toe box has like a slightly flatter aesthetic so it gives off that more slender look, likely cause of the materials they had to uses. And thank you!
Great review bro! 👏Luv the detailed review. 💯Hit on Union site today. Cant wait to see them in hand. I agree with alot of ur opinions. Got urself a new sub 👍
Thank you!
Got a pair today and I’m stoked!
Congrats!
Can't wrap my head around these.😵💫😵💫😵💫
got my pair secured on union today. so excited.
Same 🫡 what size
congrats!
These shoes are sick locked my pair up
I have the old union Jordan 1, with the laces it’s best that you double tie them and it will feel better
I hope I can get it
So happy i was able to grab these in the site today. Not a fan of the $25 shipping though, lol.
I love a unique sneaker and this is unique. Great through review as always.
I was about to purchase but that shipping fee had me tight lol
$25 shipping shouldn’t be allowed
I like these.
I think its hard to look different and clean at the same time especially with the AJ1 silhouette. I dig 'em but I think they'd look cleaner if the sole was that teal or light grey color though.
Secured a 9.5 as well. To be honest, I’m not 💯 sure about these yet. Until I have them in hand and feet, I’ll decide lol
I like these. It doesn’t come off corny. I think alotta ppl gonna hate but that’ll change once they see em on somebody or instore. I hit on Union website and am happy. 96 was a big year for me so I love the whole summer of 96 thing but that’s me. I totally see why ppl don’t like em. I remember everyone being on the fence with the first ones they did.
‘96 was big for me too, my parents immigrated and I had spoke no English so everything was scary 😆 congrats on hitting!
Tied tight my boi!!!😂
man I can’t pull off the looser lace fit 😆 😂
these run TTS?
still on the fence with these 😅
I love the Last of Us 2. I liked these unions from the beginning.
I really liked last of us 2 also 🙌 maybe there’s a correlation with liking these 😆
@@soleinclined Naw people just hate the last of Us 2. Hahahaha not me tho
I like these a lot. Been a big fan since first images. I love the risk union took! Like sure if they would've done the same as the previous two AJ1 collabs, it would've been a hit and over $700 resell. But that's a cop out to me. I respect the chance they're taking. So I hop to cop for retail! If not, I'll be passing because I don't feel the need to pay resell for these.
Best of luck on release day!
I LIKE EM, IM GOING AFTER EM
Comparing this pair to TLoU2 is an insult for the shoe 😂🙈
Haha best I could think of 😆
They look ok but it's an easy pass. Don't think they will age that well and the story telling is a little corny (don't care about their summer of love lol)
😂 That’s totally valid
don't you think they look exactly like the Vibrations Of Naija AJ1's that are still sitting? These will sell out because of the "resell value"@@soleinclined
@@blaxsmith if they loved us they wouldn’t release these for 200 freakin dollars
😂😂😂 ugly Frankentein shoes 😅 Centipedes around the shoes what so special in this shoes that i can see idont know you guys saying ohhh is the best shoes this year😅😅😅
