today we're going to be taking a look at the bordeaux air jordan 1. i'm excited to see what
these look like in hand because there has definitely been a lot of anticipation and
i look forward to breaking down all the styles cuts and materials with you guys today and if
you didn't know by now my name is dj and this is the dna show so like typical fashion we're gonna
crack these things open out the box get our first impressions talk about the history then go styles
cuts and materials resale value and everything like that with the polls at the end of the video
based on what people think if the shoe is fire or trash so stick around for those results
but for now let's get into the shoe starting with the box you have your classic og style aerodrome
in one box all black with the red nike hits on the front back top inside going to the size tag
it reads air jordan 1 retro high og bordeaux metallic silver white retail 170 bucks flipping
up in the lid of the shoe you have your classic all-white paper like normal fashion and then
you got the shoe oh you got the shoe okay first impressions of this sneaker the leather honestly
these ain't that bad one shoe that i will be using in today's comparison is going to be the navy code
japan air jordan ones as you can see right here they definitely have a very similar style when
it comes to the color blocking not the materials exactly but overall the general look to these are
definitely very similar so i think they're worth comparing so now let's get into the history of
this sneaker first because there's not too much history behind it but there is just a slight bit
of history and that is the bordeaux air jordan one we originally saw the og bordeaux air jordan 7 and
then we saw a recent retro of the air jordan bordeaux 6 which is actually pretty similar to
the bordeaux 7 and then we have the bordeaux air jordan 1 right here which is not really similar
to the other two saying that they are very relative to each other and this one's kind of
just like doing its own thing so i get it i guess essentially you got you know your cool gray packs
and your cement packs and your bread packs and now your bordeaux packs and different things like that
so i don't know we shall see what they do in the future but i think yes that has some small history
and heritage to it but not too much when it comes relative to this when it comes to the overall
color scheme of the shoe so now it's time to break down the styles cuts and materials of these and
see what everybody else thinks about them starting with the outsole you have your classic air jordan
one outsole with the bordeaux bottom right here going to the midsole you got your all-white
midsole with the white stitch and then on the upper like i said earlier very very similar when
it comes to these and the navy air jordan one when you put these side by side you can see they're
virtually identical there are a couple small tweaks when it comes to the two shoes but overall
very very similar when it comes to the color blocking now these on the other hand have a thick
rough edge cut leather on them and i think this is definitely going to be a big sleeper for a lot
of people saying that the resale value isn't going for so much but we'll talk about that a little bit
later in the video now going to the swoosh right here as you can see you have a metallic silver
swoosh and you have the same silver vibes going into the jordan wings logo with the jewel right
here on the inside now i know a lot of people have problems when it comes to the jewels on the jordan
ones because over time they start to yellow they look really really bad and it kind of gets that
yellow orange kind of tint to it and then they start to crack and actually fall out and then
you no longer even have a wings logo on the side of the foot so i understand that struggle when it
comes to the long term effect but me personally i really like the look i like the switch up
and i like seeing something a little bit different because we definitely see a lot of similarities
when it comes to all these jordan ones that are coming out so to see the jewel hit on here and
them keeping the nike air on the tongue i think that's a nice little touch now another thing to
mention when it comes to the tongue you have your classic mesh tongue like you have on the bordeaux
right here and then on the japan one you actually have a leather tongue with a nike air stitched on
the tongue without the actual branding in the patch like you typically get on every other
style but one thing that they did do that we don't see too often they bordered the tongue with the
bordeaux colorway and that's actually very similar to these having the same navy colorway behind it
yet this one is white on the back end and this one is navy on the back end and this one back in a day
used to be numbered out of x amount of pairs but now it just says 2001 and 2020. i wish the shoe
was numbered because that always makes it a little bit more dope but again that's a whole other topic
if you want to see this review go ahead and check this one out another thing to mention as well
as you can see these come with a pair of navy laces and these come with a pair of bordeaux laces
and they also have an additional pair of white laces with these and i think the white laces
are in here somewhere and then you have a pair of white laces with these as well so as we can
see now with the air jordan one retailing at 170 bucks typically they're throwing in an extra pair
of laces or even two or three pairs of laces depending on the shoe and the colorway so at
this point i'm pretty sure a lot of people have a lot of extra white laces but don't get me wrong
that's not a bad problem to have because that way you can always stay fresh so besides the material
differences on the navy area of this shoe as you can see both shoes are very very similar so i'm
assuming a lot of people are going to have a hard time debating on which one do they like more so i
posted the poll on ig to see what everybody else thinks and if you haven't already make sure you
follow me on ig so you can participate in those polls and see all the results here on the channel
55 of the people chose the navy and 45 of the people chose the bordeaux and that definitely
makes a lot of sense in my eyes just because of the history and nostalgia behind this shoe and
seeing it being retroed again and for people to be able to purchase it again this is kind of a new
thing new hot thing on the block so i understand why a lot of people do like it and again like we
said earlier i think this is going to be a big sleeper for the year when it comes to the top
air jordans and they didn't actually make my top 10 list but at the same time they are definitely a
nice shoe and they're an easy honorable mention so now when it comes to this shoe being either
fire or trash i wanted to see what people said as well because i know i lost that battle but i feel
like a lot of people still liked it so let's see what they said 81 of the people chose fire and 19
of the people chose trash makes a lot of sense to me simply because yes this shoe is pretty
dope you can wear it with a lot of outfits it's a nice switch up when it comes to coloring because
we typically see red blacks whites blues different things like that when it comes to jordan releases
so having a nice little touch like this especially with the jordan 1 i can easily see this on a lot
of people's hit list especially saying that the shoe isn't going for much over retail and speaking
of that resale price is very very low when it comes to this shoe and i think it's a great
opportunity for a lot of people to get this shoe and be happy that they purchased this shoe for 20
or 40 or 30 bucks or even at retail or sometimes even below retail if you can find it in the right
place or maybe used once or twice or something like that because i think a few years down the
line people are gonna be like yo the bordeaux ones i forgot about those damn why are they 350 now
that could potentially be the type of situation when it comes to a sneaker like this everybody
had an easy chance to get it they kind of passed it up they had a lot of other stuff going on you
got christmas and all these other releases going on throughout the year and i completely understand
everybody can't purchase every single shoe so it makes sense why they might have put this one on
the back burner and they want to grab it later so hopefully if you're able to pick up the shoe
later and you didn't get it now hopefully you're able to get it for a good deal maybe 30 or 40 or
50 bucks over retail maybe you know three four six months down the line i definitely think it's
a very very nice sneaker and a nice addition to my collection not a top ten sneaker but i appreciate
it a lot so let me know how you guys feel about this shoe how did you feel about the release was
it easy to get for you did you not want to get it did you like it and then not like it did you
not like it and liked it all those different things let me know your impressions of the shoe
and what you plan on doing with it in the future what you got going on with the shoe now
all those other fancy things you already know what it is i'll see you on another one all right
