A lot of people come up to me and they ask me they say bro. What do these numbers mean inside the size tag?
Like I know what the size is but like what's all this other stuff mean today?
I'm gonna break it down for you guys to show you exactly what it means why they put it there why you should understand it
as well
Welcome back to the channel. What's up with y'all how y'all doing?
How y'all been if you don't know, my name is DJ and this is the DNA show today
We're gonna be talking about the simple topic of the size tag
A lot of people actually don't understand this and that's why they're clicking on this video now
I'm here to help you guys understand exactly what's going on today. I'm gonna use three different shoes from three different eras
We got an old 2000 2010 and then closer to 2020 era right here
So this shows you the difference between the tags and all those things
So let's start with the old shoe first because these ones a lot of people get confused about the newer ones a lot more simple
But basically here on the tag, you have a bunch of different stuff numbers and all these things and you're like what's going on?
Right on the top of the tag. Let's break it down from the top to the bottom
We have made in China and then underneath that you have these numbers and you're like, what is this number? Oh one oh four
Oh six mean the production year the production month the production day
And then why three right here is going to be where the shoes were produced
I was in China at the y3 Factory and then going on to
Us size 13 UK size 12 European size forty seven point five and then 31 centimeters
So that's pretty much the one that everybody knows next part
You have one three six zero six four space zero zero one space zero zero
So these numbers right here are actually going to tell you the style code and the color of the shoe
So the first numbers are going to be the style code
So it's gonna be Air Jordan 3 and then the oo one is going to be black cement
Which is the colorway so you got Air Jordan three blacks to me
Next you have the barcode of the shoe and underneath that barcode. You have another production date
Usually they run the production dates from the beginning to the end of the production. So on here you have oh four
1101 and then underneath that you have your patent number which they have the patent issue and have the rights to all these things
So a 2001 black cement 3 if you want to get all the information for it
You can look these numbers up on Google and will bring up this exact shoe
so sometimes if it's a sneaker that you don't know like
Where or what and all that stuff just look up the style code on Google and you'll literally find the shoe like that
Okay. I want to give you guys a quick brief of the
2010 Doernbecher 3 which any three doesn't really matter but this is just one I have in hand this tag is a little bit different
Than the older tag. They updated it. They threw a jump man on there
They got a little bit more fancy with the printing they made it look a little bit nicer
You have the wide 3 factory the sizing and then now you can see the exact production dates in
2010 from start to finish and then also your style code number made in China and then you have your barcode you have another barcode
Number underneath that which I don't know what that means and then you have your UPC code right here
Which also matches on the box right here next to the barcode?
So that's the barcode number that we were talking about earlier that you will find
That's the same number that's going to match with the shoes
So if you ever looking for shoes to match with your box and then from there
You have your US patents and all those numbers from there. So that's kind of breaking down this shoe
So as you can see
They updated it a little bit and it got a little bit more improved over that 10 year period from 2000 to 2010
So now let's take it to the final 2019 release. This one is way different
It's got the sizing on the side in multiple sizes
now more than just a couple and then you still have your warehouse and your production code and your production date your
UPC code that matches the box as well
And then you have your color code here at the top CK four three
Four four zero zero two that's gonna be the same code that you find right here on the box as well
So as you see it's very easy
to match the shoes with the boxes with these codes and then underneath that made in China and it has it in multiple languages as
Well, and then now here in 2019, you can see you can search the patent now through a website
Which is a lot different than before you have to look up numbers and it didn't really make sense
But it's very very smart. Now QR codes is a big thing
so on here
You can scan the QR code and that will usually direct you back to the Nike website so you can purchase some more product
That's just another way of promo for them
So that's gonna wrap it up from reading the three different areas of the tags as you can see
They're all pretty much the same
They just look a little bit different and have advanced over the years what you can't be mad at because you know that yeah
There's more stuff on the tag, but it's helpful for the people
It's helpful for the companies helpful for the brands
And if you are ever struggling on finding something it's a lot easier to just look up these numbers compared to being like
All the numbers is right here. It'll tell you just type them in on Google and it'll literally pop the shoe up for you
So I hope that helps if you guys have any other questions comments or concerns
Any other brands any other sneakers how to read those tags how to read the Box tags anything like that?
