Story hit me in the feels bro. I played by myself on this crappy outside court in the 9th grade. Everyday rain, sun, snow whatever. Everyday without fail. This old brother would stop by sometimes and shoot around with me and tell me to keep hustling. After like 6 months in the summer I was out there in the morning getting up shots. He drove up and handed me a box with the AJ 10's brand new, NEVER WORN, inside. Said "keep your head up" as I was in Pro Wings with holes in them and just walked away. Never cried so hard man. Dropped 38 in my first game in these and sat in the locker room and cried. Keep up the good work y'all.
My dad bought me these joints and they're my favorite Jordan's and my first pair when I was like 8 or 9 years old. And they'll always be special to me 😏 love you pops......R.I.P.
I've never owned a pair of these, I was the dirty little kid who use to watch the ballers and hustlers hoop in them, while we watch through the fences at the playground, and to finally have a crack at them, mannnnnnnnnnn I'm hyped over these joints 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👍👍, great video and thanks for the upload!!
Never was into balling or Jordans as a kid because I didn't know it was a thing but your story is that pretty much of most kids in the 90's. Like Nightwing, I wore Payless shoes myself as a kid. So I can see where you're coming from. Now as an adult I have too many shoes and not enough time to wear them. Good to know you can afford them now. Everything is temporary.
Man, i remember back in the day in school if you didn't show up on the first day with a brand new pair of shoes or the latest Jordans or Nikes you would be clowned on for weeks. My mom would buy me what she could afford and it wasn't much so I'd be clowned on sometimes.. fortunately as i grew older i was one of the first kids in high school with a part time job. Best part is i started to work at a little mom n pop shoe store on the weekends and from there my shoe game elevated. Cool story Chris kinda reminded me of myself 💯
Thanksgiving is over, time to start the BIG countdown. Air Jordan 11 'Bred' countdown that is. What do you think? Let us know your thoughts down below. Thanks for watching!!!
A shoe is just a shoe without a story behind it. Im 52 now and I still find myself buying a pair as a gift for me , just to reward myself. And the stories are never ending.
Story Time is always the best time!!! I’m soooo excited for this release....I’ve been waiting since ‘96 to own a pair. I smelled a pair....and it smelled like 1996!!! 72-10 and the ring!!! 💯✊🏽🔥👐🏽❤️🤓
I remember Michael Jordan walking into the game in the all red uniform and red/black leg sleeve, and on his feet.....you guessed it the red and black 11 and mannnn that patent leather shining, oh my goodness I was like damn they muthafuckers clean 😂😂😂
Recently became a sneaker junkie and your channel is a necessity. Love it and the stories cuz they hit home for me when I couldn’t get sneakers like this living with with my folks. Keep it coming.
I learn more about Jordan’s with you than I learn over the years of having them. I appreciate everything u do in video both u and ur wife thank you so much and keep up the work thank you again 👍🏾😀
Ha ha !! Yeah, I remember me and my brother used to have the Super Mario and Ninja turtle slide ons like the Vans today. Which is probably where they got the idea from. Mario and Ninja turtles were the " it " thing back in those days. Ha haa !!!
Keep up with the storytelling, Chris! Great of your (half)bro to do that for you, and ignite the genuine sneakerhead within. 👌🏼👌🏼 I tell my wife I watch you because we share a lot of the same sentiments and nostalgia...her response? “Nerds!” 🙌🏼🙌🏼
I love the black/red colourway! My goal is to collect the Bred colourway for the 11, 12, 13, and 14. Lucky to have gotten the Bred 11s this weekend and now all I am missing is the Flu game 12s. Still kicking myself for missing out on the 2016 release of those 12s.. but oh well! such is life!
Mid 30-40s men witnessed the greatness. It was our dream to have Jordan’s. We got it from parents. Buy ourselves when we have a job. Then now we buy Jordan’s to our kids. That’s how Jordan brand thrived even as today.
Tell the stories , I guess those that appreciate them aren’t as loud as the few that don’t like them. Sorry about that , telling them it part of the reason we come to your channel for great content , the in-depth reviews, and the great interaction between you and the Mrs.
Beautiful story dude. The stories are everything. Without them, a shoe is just a shoe. With a story they come alive and relate to our own stories. Cheers from France.
I got my first pair of J's (2019 Laney 5s) this year. They was sitting at the outlet and I wanted something in blue, so I bought 'em. All the while, I was freaking out b/c it was definitely the most expensive pair of shoes that I have ever owned, My parents were mad (and still aren't totally on board with it, but it's far too late now). Honestly, they're heavy and they can feel a little stiff sometimes, but the quality on my pair is pretty great (even if it has a small deformity on the midsole). And there's just something different about lacing up your Jordans and walking into your classes. Getting that pair led me to your channel and finding an appreciation for sneaker culture as a whole.
That’s dope, it was my friend in middle school for me dude was mad spoiled got all the Js and the ones he didn’t like or want he would give to me and tell his moms to get him something else. Appreciate the shared stories bro, really enjoy your work of you and the Misses.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 review as always!!! And story time was dope!!! Keep em coming!!! But happened to the post review chat?!? We can’t get both?!? 🤞🏾hope I can get my pair on the 14th
Finally! The Jordan 11 Bred review . I'm waiting for you to cop this since the shock drop. I hope I cop this on December 14. Much love from the Philippines.
When you tell a story it really creates a personal connection you might have with the viewer. because it might be similar to our own situations and stories. I'm glad you kept in your stories. Always been one of my reasons for watching.
Stories feed the content and makes it authentic. Plus you do you!! Good to hear fun facts and stories all the time! Thanks for that ! Dope content as always!! 😎👍
And man, what a 180 to get back at them too! Too bad Horace ducked out few games later due to injuries, would've been sweeter! I still find it funny Horace still had the balls to play with MJ during the Space Jam Jordan Dome training sessions after he lost to Orlando the previous year!
@IAmInfinitus208 All those Bulls from the 1st 3 peat were close friends tho. Even Horace. It's mostly the guys from thr 2nd 3 peat that seem bitter. So Horace went down there to work out and play with friends. He didn't, nor did ANYONE of them expect Jordan to come back and dominate like he did. People really expected the Magic to own the East. When the Bulls started out 41-3 I'm sure they all realized Jordan is back and beating Chicago is gonna be HARD!!! But for real, the expectations for Chicago before the season was a question mark. So Horace really thought he was on the best team in the NBA. Houston lost a lot of players so their run was over. I get why Horace did it. What's really shocking is ALL those NBA stars who were friends with Mike. Van Gundy was right, Jordan used EVERY opportunity to learn their tendencies. He knew Malone held the ball out, but never stripped him til he needed it to win the 98 Finals. He was ruthless. They should have said no to ever playing outside a NBA game with him lol
I loved the stories because we're the same in age and similar in 90s culture/sneaker/basketball knowledge. I'm basically your twin brother you never knew of. I grew up calling them the "Playoffs 11s". These are my holy grails from my childhood. Must need. I have the Concords but I need these!
Finally got it! The shoe I loved! My first ever Jordan 11s that I got! Growing up in New Zealand and Australia it used to be hard to get cause they’re way more limited and they’re just more expensive that an avg sneaker. Finally got it today lined up and so happy for retail! So proud 😂😂 I tried to get space jam 11s when I finished high school in 2016 and couldn’t pretty happy this was it! Been going through my own hardship so this victory for me was big 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 VICTORY LAP TONIGHT THO! 🏁🏁🏁
Great video man! And of course keep going with the stories, because that’s what make shoes so special. That’s why I love Jordan 6 black infrared, because was my first Jordans ever back in 91. I saved all my money to buy them and my dad couldn’t believe I paid a little bit more than $100 for them.
One of the best reviews on UA-cam.. I lived in Chicago all my life now living in Florida, your story, well this story about my Bulls is to the T!!!!! 73-9 is not bad but that ring makes the difference in being THE GREATEST TEAM AND SEASON OF ALL TIMES.. My first pair was the Fire Red 3’s in 1987, got them when they first came out.. I hated the 1’s and the 2, at the time, now I love them.. Keep doing your thing bro.. God Bless the channel.
That Payless shoes story ! Ha ha !! Very relatable. Me and my brother had the Super Mario Bros and Ninja turtle slides because those two were the " it " thing in the 90's. That being said, I'm a black and red, color individual so these are good but there is no better 11 model to me then the 72-10's. The all leather upper and sparkling patent leather with the red accents and the white silky outsole is what makes them second to none. These and all the other original colors are good for the old timers, the simple color combination and the sentimental value. Good video. Respect from Los Angeles - ERRMAQ !
I have a similar story. During my high school days was the time that people we're high on the air Force 1 (the footlocker City compared them too the hottest concert ticket) and at that point I had only had cheap Nike shoes. So, that year when my Dad made me put flyers at 100 houses for 10 cent each I knew what I was buying. So, when I walked in with a pair of all black mids that year I had a kid tell me "you're so cool".
My older brother used to get all the new Jordan's growing up too. The first pair I ever had was a hame down pair of fire red fives and then the metallic fives.
Man i love sneaker origin stories. I was born Jan 1990. It started with Free Willy. Iwill never forget the firrst time they showed jesse his room and you see the blakc Nike Air sabre flights on the bed, That iconic Nike Air embroidered in white on the black Nubuck heel. OMG man i felt like if i got those shoes i could do what he did and then some. So i was already infatuated with sneakers and then Space Jam released. My whole easter following that was Space Jam themed. From that point on i was hooked. But i didnt get my first pair until the XIV's released. Saved all my christmas and birthday money. And in fifth grade i bought myself from Foot Locker the Jordan Last Shot XIV's. I was prolly 8-9. And my poor mom I was in fifth grade wearing 10.5 shoes. I used to hate shoe shopping and walking by kids foot locker and knowing i couldnt go there. Here we are and i got more shoes than i know what to do with. Little me would be proud.
I Just received these in the mail today. I bought them originally in 2000-2001. They were very comfortable. When the situation came to own them again. I didn't hesitate ! Probably one of the most comfortable Jordans ever made !
I never owed 11’s because I was always to broke but I finally copped my first 11 breds on StockX and I love the shoe sm I was so hyped to finally have 11’s in my collection
I had the original back in ‘96, waited in line on launch day with my brother at Footlocker. Right now I have the 2001 retro from when I worked at FootAction, and while they still “look” good, part of the out sole is peeling and the air units have popped, so now the bottom inside has collapsed. So tempted to StockX it GOAT these!
I was fortunate enough to cop 2 pairs of the 2018 Concord 11's and 2 pairs of the 2019 Bred 11's and I love both of them. They're my top 4 Jordan's that I wear along with my Chicago 1's and Black toe 1's. Great video and review guys and the stories are awesome!😎😁👍
Love the stories and I was waiting for your review on these! The shock drop was during class...I think my students would’ve freaked out if I stopped class to buy a pair of Jordans. I might’ve gone down in middle school legend stories...Keep doin’ you. Haters can keep hating.
What's crazy is his story about his first pair of Jordan 11s is just like mine. I'd has Jordans before that but I got my first pair of Jordan 11s in the 7th grade that was a pretty bad year for me lost a lot of family grades slipped wasn't very popular at school . It was terrible I didn't really know much about Jordans either hut they were still really popular at that time which was 2012. My dad had just gotten them after they dropped my older brother got them for him. When I saw them I didn't know what show they were or the story behind them but they were really really nice . I asked my dad if he could get me a pair and he asked if I liked them and I said yeah and he said my brother got them for him and actually said I could have them. Jordans weren't really his thing so he gave them to me. I wire them to school the next day first thing I noticed was how incredibly comfortable they were. These were literally the most comfortable shoes I'd ever worn ever. And so I went to school the next day and wooow I literally became the most popular kid I'm my school for the day I just you not. Ever guy was like wow where did u get those or those are some nice shoes or can we be your friend. I was star struck and the girls wanted to talk to me even the ones who didn't know about sneakers . Even kids who bullied me were jealous only thing I didn't like was they tried to call them fake cause I'd never worm Jordans before didn't really have any nice clothes so that really mad me made. But I didn't care but yeah I wrong those shoes all the time and beat them the fuck up lol they were literally falling apart. I'm trying to get the 2019 pair but it's looking like I'll have to pay resell cause I missed out on tryna get them retail. Even tho I tried my best . But yea super relatable story
LOVE story time, Bro!!! This is my "grail" sneaker! First and only shoe I have ever had a dream about! Had them in said dream and put them under my bed. Woke up, looked under my bunk bed and they were not there... Needless to say, I cried! That moment I decided to hit the streets to shovel any and every house in Detroit in order to buy a pair.
I like and appreciate your stories ...... it adds a sense of creativity anybody can slap on a pair of shoes and hit “Record” that’s what makes the channel u unique ..
Meh, I’ll take the 2012’s over these. I can’t stand looking at the newer silhouettes of 11’s because that extra layered patent leather is so thick the outlines are white just like the 2016 Space Jams
@@mrclapz1488 These 2019 versions are definitely better that the 2012 version which i had as well. If you're complaining about the higher cut patent leather than you might as well complain about the OG, because that's how they we're made. The shape of the 2019 is better than the 2012 and more true to the shape of the OG. As far as shape and patent leather cut goes the Space Jams, Concords and Breds are all superior to their previous retros.
Love your reviews brother! Can’t wait for these as I missed out on shock drop, but still have my 2012 pair looking fresh! Where can I cop that 🔥 hoodie!? Really like it, a lot!
you're big brother is cool. love your stories. reminds me of my highschool years when i ignored all of jordans because my mom could never afford them :(
Story hit me in the feels bro. I played by myself on this crappy outside court in the 9th grade. Everyday rain, sun, snow whatever. Everyday without fail. This old brother would stop by sometimes and shoot around with me and tell me to keep hustling. After like 6 months in the summer I was out there in the morning getting up shots. He drove up and handed me a box with the AJ 10's brand new, NEVER WORN, inside. Said "keep your head up" as I was in Pro Wings with holes in them and just walked away. Never cried so hard man. Dropped 38 in my first game in these and sat in the locker room and cried. Keep up the good work y'all.

I especially love how his story is a classic one where he talks about the original Jordans.
When you remember a story that vivid, it's always worth sharing.

Do they fit like last years concords or do they fit bigger?
A shoe is just a shoe without a story behind it. Im 52 now and I still find myself buying a pair as a gift for me , just to reward myself. And the stories are never ending.
"Why is he wearing corduroy?"
"So you can hear them coming"
That shit got me laughing so hard! I don't know why! 🤣

Your brother story gave me flash backs to Step Brothers.
Your bro: Here, you can have em
You: Did we just become best friends?!?!?
“So they can hear him coming...oh you’re the one with the corduroy” yo homegirl a trip 🤣🤣

72 10 plus chip is better than 73-9😁😁😁
TAAAAWK!!!!
U know analysts will always say 73-9 is the best regular season record which technically is true. But 72 10 is the best record overall👍
87-13 on total with the ship.
MJ tried calling the 73-9 Warriors but there was no ring
@@jayceejackson3584 yup, makes it sweeter
So we can all agree that the 11 and this colorway is the best jordan ever!

The best way to sum up that 95-96 season was after sweeping the Magic when Mike ends off with, effectively. Love it.
And man, what a 180 to get back at them too! Too bad Horace ducked out few games later due to injuries, would've been sweeter!
I still find it funny Horace still had the balls to play with MJ during the Space Jam Jordan Dome training sessions after he lost to Orlando the previous year!

And in fifth grade i bought myself from Foot Locker the Jordan Last Shot XIV's. I was prolly 8-9. And my poor mom I was in fifth grade wearing 10.5 shoes. I used to hate shoe shopping and walking by kids foot locker and knowing i couldnt go there. Here we are and i got more shoes than i know what to do with. Little me would be proud.
I just ordered mine in 2021, these are gonna be my very first pair of Jordans. I am super excited to receive them next week.
I just found this channel and this was a dope video. Subscribed
Welcome aboard!
I Just received these in the mail today. I bought them originally in 2000-2001. They were very comfortable. When the situation came to own them again. I didn't hesitate ! Probably one of the most comfortable Jordans ever made !
Bought them in 2001? damn, took a long time to arrive! 😜
Are they comfortable for you? I think I might try half sizing up
One of the best jordan channels I watch for the story lines
I like your stories bro. This one was great, your half bro is dope!
I never owed 11’s because I was always to broke but I finally copped my first 11 breds on StockX and I love the shoe sm I was so hyped to finally have 11’s in my collection
What size did you get them ?

I had the original back in ‘96, waited in line on launch day with my brother at Footlocker. Right now I have the 2001 retro from when I worked at FootAction, and while they still “look” good, part of the out sole is peeling and the air units have popped, so now the bottom inside has collapsed. So tempted to StockX it GOAT these!
Hey man I love tour stories keep me coming man!!!!
love those genuine story times about sneaks 👟 word up ❤️
Keep your stories coming bro. Always enjoy them.
I was fortunate enough to cop 2 pairs of the 2018 Concord 11's and 2 pairs of the 2019 Bred 11's and I love both of them. They're my top 4 Jordan's that I wear along with my Chicago 1's and Black toe 1's. Great video and review guys and the stories are awesome!😎😁👍
My dad pulled me out of school early one day in fifth grade and took me to get these . My first pair. I was 10 years old ❤
Love the stories and I was waiting for your review on these! The shock drop was during class...I think my students would’ve freaked out if I stopped class to buy a pair of Jordans. I might’ve gone down in middle school legend stories...Keep doin’ you. Haters can keep hating.
the red translucent outsole on the 2019 version looks like a swedish fish candy while the others look like a jolly rancher type.
I’m very grateful and thankful for your channel 🏆🙏🏾😃
Always love the story time!!! My first Air jordan was the OG Bred 12 and I was in love from that moment ✊🏿
That start was lowkey fire lol. You in ya bag right now. Loving it all.
Stories are the best bro. We are the same age and it brings me back.
What's crazy is his story about his first pair of Jordan 11s is just like mine. I'd has Jordans before that but I got my first pair of Jordan 11s in the 7th grade that was a pretty bad year for me lost a lot of family grades slipped wasn't very popular at school . It was terrible I didn't really know much about Jordans either hut they were still really popular at that time which was 2012. My dad had just gotten them after they dropped my older brother got them for him. When I saw them I didn't know what show they were or the story behind them but they were really really nice . I asked my dad if he could get me a pair and he asked if I liked them and I said yeah and he said my brother got them for him and actually said I could have them. Jordans weren't really his thing so he gave them to me. I wire them to school the next day first thing I noticed was how incredibly comfortable they were. These were literally the most comfortable shoes I'd ever worn ever. And so I went to school the next day and wooow I literally became the most popular kid I'm my school for the day I just you not. Ever guy was like wow where did u get those or those are some nice shoes or can we be your friend. I was star struck and the girls wanted to talk to me even the ones who didn't know about sneakers . Even kids who bullied me were jealous only thing I didn't like was they tried to call them fake cause I'd never worm Jordans before didn't really have any nice clothes so that really mad me made. But I didn't care but yeah I wrong those shoes all the time and beat them the fuck up lol they were literally falling apart. I'm trying to get the 2019 pair but it's looking like I'll have to pay resell cause I missed out on tryna get them retail. Even tho I tried my best . But yea super relatable story
LOVE story time, Bro!!! This is my "grail" sneaker! First and only shoe I have ever had a dream about! Had them in said dream and put them under my bed. Woke up, looked under my bunk bed and they were not there... Needless to say, I cried! That moment I decided to hit the streets to shovel any and every house in Detroit in order to buy a pair.
As a old head also, I love your stories and the love for sneakers. Keep doing your thing man 👍🏾
I like and appreciate your stories ...... it adds a sense of creativity anybody can slap on a pair of shoes and hit “Record” that’s what makes the channel u unique ..
I love your stories that's what makes you you keep doing them can't wait to get my pair so that is real carbon fiber on this 2019 pair.
Same here. This was my 1st jordan back at 6th grade. Wore these to the ground and until they talk back.
Love your reviews man, especially your stories along with the sneakers.
2019 best version bred since 1996 ...💯
Meh, I’ll take the 2012’s over these. I can’t stand looking at the newer silhouettes of 11’s because that extra layered patent leather is so thick the outlines are white just like the 2016 Space Jams
@@mrclapz1488 and you still bought them lol bruh
@@mrclapz1488 These 2019 versions are definitely better that the 2012 version which i had as well. If you're complaining about the higher cut patent leather than you might as well complain about the OG, because that's how they we're made. The shape of the 2019 is better than the 2012 and more true to the shape of the OG. As far as shape and patent leather cut goes the Space Jams, Concords and Breds are all superior to their previous retros.
You're definitely right about that homie.
Not gonna lie that story made me shed a tear. Giving my little bro fire kicks is always a sacred moment
Love your reviews brother! Can’t wait for these as I missed out on shock drop, but still have my 2012 pair looking fresh! Where can I cop that 🔥 hoodie!? Really like it, a lot!
Great story, makes me reminisce about my own upbringing. I begged my mom for an upgrade, and it took a while to convince but it worked.
the best shoe reviewer period. thanks man
🙏🏼
you're big brother is cool. love your stories. reminds me of my highschool years when i ignored all of jordans because my mom could never afford them :(
It's 2024 and I'm rocking these today and still out here wondering why the phylon on these is SO DAMN HARD!?!?!?
Love the background story man! Thanks for the review! 72-10 bulls still the best team ever!
Story time is the best, with regards to those that feel differently, ‘the emptiest vessels make the loudest noise’
I'm old so I like stories, keep them coming! dope review of a legendary pair of kicks
I love your stories it makes me go more into your videos bro!
This was my first Jordan too..could have been a kids edition because I was on my 4th grade when I got em but I will not forget that moment..
Air Jordan 11 Bred is on fire!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥It’s a double up I need 2 pair incredible review bro I can’t wait!💯⭐️😃❤️❤️
I was born in 91.
