You can also argue that the color-ways jordan brand was releasing in the Jordan 1’s were MUCH better in 2020 than 2022-23. Other than the Lost and Founds, most 1’s this year and last haven’t been on the same level to me.
The unc toes, yellow toes, green and washed pink are all in the same sort of level. We had some shit colorways that went crazy in 2020 too like royal toes and that navy Japan one
@@jialian93 they are not on the same level as 2020. The university blues, mochas, hyper royals, court purples, nowhere close. Which is why resell is still stupid high on all of those colorways.
@@jialian93 now, the palamino 1’s coming out later this year will have hype AND will have resale value because of the colorway and it’s wearability. People like how those look and will want to pay high $ for them.
@@samrainwater284 ehhhhh the palomino is mid. I'd say yellow toes, unc toes blows that out of the water. The color blocking doesn't look good with the brown and the yellow tag looks weird. It's def no mocha aj1. It's like a d tier to the mochas. Also some of the ones you listed were In diff years.
Let people keep the same energy. Jordan 1s are my favorite silhouette and I’m copping every pair that I like including these. They going straight to the toes 😀
I appreciate your perspective. I am a collector not a re-seller. I purchase with an investment mentality and want to hold on to my sneakers for a few years before i consider selling. Now seems like a great time to acquire assets like jordan 1 or 4 or any other kicks you rock with💪
I like that people are sleeping, makes it easier and cheaper for me, u know the majority of so called sneakerheads can't think for themselves and gotta go with the hype. Jordan 1s will never die
Been around the game during the same time you spoke about 2016 to present. Seen the high and low in the Jordan 1 and the switch from the smaller sizes to the bigger sizes. Gotta ride that wave. I love the time we are in now with the Jordan 1.
I completely agree with you. I’ve been a sneaker head since 1999-2000 when retros were great and easy to get. Our economy is tough too in today’s times with inflation. People don’t have the disposable income to blow on sneakers like before. Stuff will definitely sit.
Nike needs to stop making so many size 8 and 9. All the retros you see in store sitting us 10.5+ plus need, is usually sizes 8 and 9 left 95% of the time.
I thought I was the only one noticing that. It is wack sizes 8 and 9 are over produced sizes. I passed on the Playoff 13s, regretted, went to a couple stores that still have them now in stores. Every store I went to looking for size 11, all employees said the only sizes left are 8, 8.5, and 9. Same with UNC 5s. Nike should cut those size quantities and increase them for us 10.5+
The best video and explanation Ive seen on UA-cam so far!!! Everyone has the same blah content about aj1 being dead and you broke it down and said the same thing a lot of us collecters saying. Great great vid even from your perspective as a resller!
I LOVE this time for copping Jordan 1s. I could cop anything back in the day when they were hype. I can now basically get whatever shoe I want when I want. People will regret not copping these Jordan 1s in a few years like you said. the Taxi especially.
Obsidians actually came out in 2019 and not 2018, I had that shoe and remember taking it to Sneakercon DC in September 2019, retail was $160.00 then and I sold it for $200.00 at the event, like you said it was an easy cop, by Summer of 2020 it became a $400.00 sneaker, I'm glad 1s aren't as hyped anymore, have made for easy cops lately
The demand for the same is the same as always, resell is down, so resellers are just not buying the extra 50% of the shoes and trickling them out over time. What were seeing is the true size of the shoe market:
Glad things have settled down on Jordan’s in general. Only 1’s I gotta go back and get are the silver toes, taxis and Laney. All things I passed on because I felt retail wasn’t worth it
1st wave of jordan 1 hype was around 2012 when kanye was spotted wearing them. the 2nd and biggest jordan 1 wave when travis scott started wearing them, and sbs, as well. then wen travis released his aj1 everything went buttfuckin crazy with suburban kids who worship travis desperately copping any jordan 1 to expand their 'collection'. so i think you missed out on that aspect then jordan went crazy and released a fuck ton of jordans to combat yeezy. once everybody got a good amount of aj1s in their collection everybody was satisfied. people def got tired of em, especially since they're not even that comfortable lol. i was never really a jordan 1 fan besides the bred/royal/shadow. theyre not comfortable, too narrow, and dont really look good with most outfits lol.
Sure tho the UNC toe Jordan 1 may have resell value, but due to the fact that we have so many Jordan 1s every year excessively. It comes to the point that Jordan 1 is not one of the most saturated silhouettes compared to the 4s. It will be the a biggest thing in a couple years. In fact UNC it really depends tho, sure we have the UNC 5s sellout and almost every UNC silhouettes. But UNC and the Jordan 1 is two of the most subjective things you need to keep in mind, whether is a flop or not. Take how the game and fashion has changed nowadays.
It’s sorta like in the movie Air… you have to pick what you want to invest in wisely by depicting what the sales will be years down the line!! Imagine knowing the Black Cat 4’s would be what they are today. Spending $2000 on 10 pairs of Black Cats would have brought you nearly $10000 in return!! 😭😭😭😭 $2000 on Cool Grey 4’s would have been $5000 in return. All them 4’s that sat… the return would have been crazy!!! 😭😭😭😭 What do y’all think will be the next shoe after the 4’s?!! I’m about to put all my money on the 3’s 💀💀💀
I'm happy things are sitting again. Now if larger sizes would stay around long enough to reap some of those 25-50% sales, I'd be even happier. Feels like the Court Purple 2.0 release was the first time I saw Hibbett crash. It was downhill after that.
@@Xander71267 ok ? & what’s your point? & not I’m not I’m saying it’s also better on most of the silhouette not just color I’m also talking about silhouettes .
The Asian market is what made the Jordan 1 hype. That’s it… the only way that Jordan 1 will be relevant again is if China changes regime and get rid of the CCP Taiwan stop fearing being invaded by China and Japan stop beefing with North Korea. That’s extremely too many variables that need to happen for Jordan 1 to have hype again so it’s safe to say that ship has sunk. If people had a true understanding about geopolitics, the fall of Jordan 1 would make perfect sense. People tend to don’t care about what’s on their feet when they’re fearing death every day
HONESTLY I DONT CARE AT ALL. I COP WHAT I LIKE NO MATTER THE "RESELL" OR NOT. HOW ARE J1S "DEAD" AND FOLKS STILL GOING CRAZY OVER THE L&FS SMH. JUST BUY BUY WHAT YOU LIKE, AND TO HELL WIT THE HYPE PERIOD!
Nike should not release anymore Jordan 1 for a full year. By doing this it will bring back the hype on these cuz everyone is going to be excited that they came back again.
People start buying dunks instead, because the 1's was to hard to cop and the resale was too high,thats why dunks is so popular right now

Im new to the sneaker game this year, so everything is a win for me right now. Including these Lucky Greens. I love this colorway.
I like that people are sleeping, makes it easier and cheaper for me, u know the majority of so called sneakerheads can't think for themselves and gotta go with the hype. Jordan 1s will never die
Jordan 1 high always the Goat in my eyes I’ll take every nice colorway.
You make a good point. There's only one thing. Who is buying old Jordan 1 colorways after it hits $500 - $1000??? Not many people at all.
Resellers selling to resellers.
The Last Dance caused a lot of the Jordan 1 hype and prices skyrocketing too
Facts bro I don’t chase hype I just buy what i like and wear too old to be chasing hype lol
Got back into sneakers during the pandemic in 2020. I really appreciate you catching ppl like me up with the history my guy

I would just never reach back for Jordan 1s because so many of them are replicated.
There will be regret. Availability is a GREAT thing 😊
Might have to consider if reselling dies the prices die with it. The only reason these shoes rocket is because resellers buy and hold ‘em.
The heritage 1s single handedly ruined 1s 😂💀
Thanks for your advice. I just copped my pair by using coupon of finish line.
The demand for the same is the same as always, resell is down, so resellers are just not buying the extra 50% of the shoes and trickling them out over time. What were seeing is the true size of the shoe market:
Common factor Resalers killing the market, prime example car dealers 💯
The tru blues are actually good looking with the white laces in them
Dope vid Snipe💯
Love brother I appreciate you
Asian market hurt the aj1
Jumperman knows it!!
Glad things have settled down on Jordan’s in general. Only 1’s I gotta go back and get are the silver toes, taxis and Laney. All things I passed on because I felt retail wasn’t worth it

I remember I got the top 3s and LA to Chicagos for like 220 and thought that was tax 😂 good times
I remember the Spider-Man 1’s back in 2018 were sitting on the SNKRS app for a day or 2
🧢
False
Jordan 1’s will forever be top 3 sneakers to me
We live in a time now where if a shoe sits, it’s the end of the world
I remember getting the black satin(gym red) right before the pandemic for $95 on Nike
Thanks for the update Sniper!
While people sleep on the 1s, I will continue to cop
He forgot to mention The Last Dance. That documentary change things as well
"Wats good yall man"

@@MansaX smaller sizes might sit. Then again, if too many J's drop in a small window and this economy keeps doin what's it doin, may be easy shopping.
I copped the 🍀 1s in a 12.5. That was like the first size in big boy to go
They said they were releasing hundreds of 1s, y’all was happy. Literally they said it !
If UNC toe bricks I will believe 1s are dead. Till then I’m optimistic
The Lucky Greens are sitting because they’re not dope bro.
Don’t even remember what shoes was dropping doing covid, we was to worrying when the fuck covid was gonna end
😂 fr
We going see when the unc 1’s come out if it’s for real or not unc color way better then lucky green and taxi 1’s in my opinion 🤷🏽♂️
all ur saying is u like blue better then yellow and green lol

$300 is a big maybe
Bet those pink ones sell out next week
Yes there’s a chance! I feel like some small sizes might sit for a little
They Should at least made them to a Size 12 to 13 in Mens 😐
I think the lost and found restock is the reason to blame for these AJ1 sitting 😅
@@gl9792 🤣🤣🤣 your right bro
Maybe people are tired of looking like everyone else.
Snipe about to get cancelled coming at the Chinese people😂😂
But you just said don't invest in the Lucky Green 1s 🤔
For average person don’t do it
First 🎉
First yessir
Love the content keep it up
Shattereds and obsidians did not sit
Don’t wear enough green or willing to buy enough green to justify buying to shoe. If I were a reseller then sure, pass for me.
The green is too bright and the leather quality isn’t that great.
Must live in the boonies if sbb sat. 🧢
HONESTLY I DONT CARE AT ALL. I COP WHAT I LIKE NO MATTER THE "RESELL" OR NOT. HOW ARE J1S "DEAD" AND FOLKS STILL GOING CRAZY OVER THE L&FS SMH. JUST BUY BUY WHAT YOU LIKE, AND TO HELL WIT THE HYPE PERIOD!
the unc 1's later this year is the only 1 i want satins are a women's exclusive my foot too big
Jordans are played out everyone and their moms wears jordans
Nike should not release anymore Jordan 1 for a full year. By doing this it will bring back the hype on these cuz everyone is going to be excited that they came back again.
Ones dead rite now
Them Spiderman 1s will probably sellout next month
