today we're going to be taking a look at this year's air jordan 1 unc
i'll be comparing it with other unc models from the past as well and then obviously giving you
guys a full in-depth look and review at this sneaker so let's go ahead and get into it
welcome back to the channel what's up with you guys how you doing how you being if you did not

know when it comes to gr air jordan 1 releases in 2021 this pair right here just might be at the
top of the list when the year is over there has been a lot of hype and build up for this sneaker
the shoe got pushed back a couple times and now we finally have it taking a look at the box you
have your classic air jordan one og style black and red box looking at the size tag it reads air
jordan retro high og white black university blue retail 170 bucks cracking open the lid of the box
you have your classic white paper like you always get and then you got the shoe oh you got the shoe
okay first impressions of this sneaker these are actually really really solid before we get too in
depth with the styles cuts and materials of the sneaker you know we gotta talk about the history
first michael jordan played college basketball at the university of north carolina hence the unc
air jordan 1. when jordan got to the nba in 1985 he originally released the air jordan 1 model we
saw multiple original colorways from 1985 and in those we saw the unc air jordan 1 as well
after that shoe had came out many years had passed and then we got the 2015 retro
of that og version i know it's not cut the exact same but this is considered the og air jordan
high and this is the version that we received about five or six years ago as you can tell
from this shoe in the og shoe it looks very very similar when it comes to style and color block and
looking at the 2021 retro as you can see it has a couple different color blocking styles similar to
the chicago air jordan 1 color blocking style with the black around the collar and the black on the
swoosh and honestly i'm not mad at it so let's go ahead and start diving deeper into the styles cuts
and materials of this sneaker so you guys can see a little bit more in depth and then we'll compare
more later into the video give you guys results of what people think if the shoe is fire or trash and
then we'll talk numbers about the shoe as well based on the value resell everything like that
you have a classic air jordan 1 unc outsole right here working our way up to the midsole you have
all white with the white stitch and going to the upper this is something that i have heard a lot
of people talking about and that is the materials on this shoe typically we see a leather when it
comes to the air jordan 1 unc this time we have a suede and it looks like the leather on the mid
panel and on the toe box as well they look pretty solid so when i touch the suede right here on the
toe or on the back of the foot you can definitely see there is a stroke to it and it looks really
really nice the feel of the leather here on the toe cap or the back end of the collar feels pretty
standard to what we have seen for the quality of the air jordan 1 recently in the past couple
years i do appreciate jordan brand for stepping up the quality on a sneaker like this and this
is for sure gonna play an impact on the value of this shoe over time you have all white mesh tongue
with a black and carolina blue nike air branding right here recently on the air jordan ones we've
seen the leather hit right here on the tongue compared to the mesh like it usually is so it's
good to see them going back to that vibe on the shoe right here these come equipped with a pair
of black laces and some unc laces as well i could definitely see a lot of people putting a pair of
white laces in these as well drop a comment down below and let me know what you would rock with
the black the blue or throw a pair of white laces in there so before i get to comparing these shoes
just a little bit more we have to talk about the rookie of the year right i think when it comes to
the styles and materials and everything with the rookie of the year air jordan 1 besides the flaps
hanging off everything is very very similar and as we've seen the value of that sneaker those rows
really really high it was actually kind of funny because that shoe wasn't going for much at first
and then they became a very valuable sneaker and this one is almost going in the opposite direction
a 700 sneaker working its way down to 400 maybe dip down into 350 or something like that and then
work its way back up but at the end of the day i think both the rookie of the year and this
shoe will definitely settle around the same price when it's said and done so when it comes to unc
colorways i think these two sneakers right here are very very prominent but this one is definitely
going to make a big stance in that category i know we have other sneakers that have predominantly unc
colored schemes to them but i think these three sneakers right here are definitely
gonna be the staples when it comes to unc air jordan ones drop a comment and let me know what
you guys think about these shoes which one is your favorite do you like all of them do you
like one for certain reasons me personally i like this one the most because it's similar to the og
it's all leather it's easy to rock these get dirty really fast and they're pretty easy to mess up
and similar to this one as well it's got all suede on it right so if you got suede on the
toe cap or something like that you're probably gonna mess it up then you're gonna be all mad
and everything like that these are easy to wipe down clean up beat up rock again do it again so
for me i'm always gonna rock with the og because i mean it's the og so i posted a poll on my
instagram and i asked the people what did they think about this shoe if it was fire or trash
if you haven't already make sure you follow me on instagram so you can participate in the polls as
well and the results will always be posted here on the video so this is what the people said
97 percent of the people chose fire and three percent of the people chose trash at this point i
feel like the three percent might just be trolling because i have heard so much hype around this shoe
not just because it's hyped but it's actually a pretty dope shoe and i mean i don't know maybe
people just don't like baby blue or they don't want to mess up the suede or some reason like that
or maybe they said trash because they didn't get the shoe i don't know let me know what you think
down below in the comment section is this shoe fire or is this shoe trash so when it comes to
pricing like i said earlier this sneaker is going to be a high value shoe i think it's a little bit
overvalued right now it might drop down just a little bit but in time it's gonna go back up or
be worth even more than it is today we're looking at low to mid 400s on the price of this sneaker
right now i think if you didn't get the shoe and you're trying to buy it try to hold out and try
to see if you can find one locally for somewhere in the threes maybe low or mid 300s and if you're
not trying to spend that maybe just pass on the shoe or try to work a trade down the line so that
way you can still get the shoe in your collection i definitely think this is going to be one of the
top air jordan ones of the year the colorway is super dope the only thing that i can say that i
really don't like as much about the shoe is the outsole color it's just a little bit too vibrant
too kind of neon-ish compared to the dull baby blue color that we have on the upper maybe if
they could have toned it down just a little bit but besides that i really don't see nothing wrong
with this shoe so i'm excited to see what you guys have to say down below in the comment section
how was your luck with getting the shoe did you try raffles did you go online did you get
them locally did you first come serve did you get the shoe did you not get the shoe are you
selling it all the different things let me know what you think down below in the comment section
