hey what's going on guys this is Tyber
0:02
has a kick so my way back from work on
0:04
Friday I stopped by my local Foot Locker
0:06
and came across the Air Jordan 1 rare
0:09
air in a typical blue white and gray and
0:12
black colorway now this is pretty much
0:14
an embodiment of the early samples of
0:16
the Jordan 1 which Nike trying to put
0:18
together i like the concept behind it
0:20
because he has that almost off-white
0:22
look to it so as far as like the colors
0:24
are concerned you have from the toe to
0:26
the back blue on the foroot area you
0:28
have more blue on the I stay black on
0:31
the swoosh logo white on the midsection
0:34
panel gray on the quarter panel and some
0:36
white as well on the ankle straps and
0:39
then more blue on the ankle area so as
0:42
far as like the uh the the branding is
0:45
concerned you have the swoosh logo and
0:47
then the Air Jordan on the wings logo
0:50
has been replaced by the Nike Air text
0:52
now this is the back side you see you
0:54
have again suede and leather material on
0:57
the ankle and the straps more leather
1:00
across the panels and then again that
1:02
kind of soft leather that is typical of
1:04
most Jordan 1 swoosh logo on the
1:06
midsection and on the foroot again you
1:08
have that same soft leather on the toe
1:11
you have your perforations which is
1:13
traditional to most Jordan one for
1:15
ventilation purposes this toe looks
1:17
incredible now if you go across the
1:20
tongue and this extension you have black
1:23
nylon or mesh material and then blue
1:25
laces and then outside of the tongue you
1:27
have the Nike Nike logo which is typical
1:29
of most Jordan one again you have the
1:31
dual density ankle liner there which
1:34
again cushions your ankle now the shoe
1:36
cost about 180 but what I do like also I
1:39
like the midsole the midsole has always
1:42
almost looks aged which is something
1:44
that Jordan Brin has been doing a lot as
1:46
of late and then as you look again all
1:49
across this looks aged to again give you
1:52
that look of like authenticity and old
1:55
now you have your circular thread on the
1:56
outsole and then which is typical of
1:58
most Jordan one if you want to buy this
2:00
I will have a link for you in the
2:02
description again thanks for watching
2:04
and before we close I do want to talk
2:06
about some of the technical aspect of
2:08
the shoe first we're going to talk about
2:10
comfort and cushioning again this has
2:13
minimal heel unit and a thin foam footed
2:16
so it offers limited impact absorption
2:20
so if you're looking for a shoe to play
2:22
basketball with I would not recommend
2:23
this one jordan himself when he had the
2:25
Jordan one on his feet were bleeding at
2:27
some at some point now sizing and fit
2:30
now they usually tend to like run uh
2:33
through the size but they also tend to
2:35
be very narrow especially for guys that
2:37
have like wider feet and near the toe
2:39
box so I would say if you want a snug
2:41
fit consider going a half size up even
2:44
one size up now the last thing is
2:47
ventilation ventilation again is limited
2:49
on the Jordan 1 because they do have
2:51
perforation of the toe box and the nylon
2:53
tongue to aid air flow but the overall
2:56
like breathability is pretty modest on
2:58
the Jordan 1 support and lock down again
3:00
good ankle support that's just not even
3:02
a question good padded ankle collar
3:05
enhances lock down but I would not use a
3:08
Jordan one for basketball purposes this
3:10
is purely for looks and design and
3:12
aesthetic so this is if you're looking
3:14
for a shoe for a good aesthetic this is
3:16
it but if you're looking for a shoe for
3:17
performance do not use the Jordan one
3:19
again thanks for watching this is D from
