Your legit bro. Thanks for the info.

[@JimmyKantstandyabitz]

DNA SHOW what are your thoughts on custom color way AJ1 ? I’ve been wanting to get those OG Shadow 1s but don’t wanna drop $400+ for them so I bought me some all white AJ1 and I’m thinking of painting them that color way. What are your thoughts on that ?

[@F30586]

So the stamp confirms it’s a b-grade? I’ve come across shoes that have visual defects and don’t have any stamp.

[@Pourage_art]

Find myself just staring at that spinning jordan.

[@briancrawford69]

Let people rock whatever they want. If you can wear jeans with holes as fashionable then who cares. Wear what you like

[@rayrawket]

This actually did help ALOT Seeing people go back and forth about real and fake had me so lost! Appreciate that knowledge

[@KingCanon]

As long as the buyer is aware, it’s all good

[@sallahedine107]

I never say it i just sell them and think thats okay otherwise they will lowball it

Good job. This is exactly what is happening. Great job explaining it. Ross is heaven for finding B grades.

[@connor.bouchard]

I ended up getting the Travis Scott 4s for $600 since it had a little glue stain during the summer 🔥

[@IISourAyyII]

I ended up passin on the travis 4s when theey were $350 due to qualitycontrol lol

[@535FIT]

I have no issues rocking B grades. Those Banned Jordan 1’s are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@robertgrant4085]

Laughing my ass off at these people think B grade are fake they need to read a book

[@bassbullienation8703]

Facts lol.

[@mgtowphilippines8164]

In the Philippine there is this called “Mall pull out” which they claim that isnthe same material but did not pass the QC but its all a scam

[@chalkzone0]

I remember the melo 13s were b grades, I got them at nike outlets for the low

[@iklapyouoncod6664]

Hy I remember 99% were B-Grades

[@sxrghxolx2405]

i want sum melo 13s but no money

[@TheJoTri]

Wow, didn’t know shoes get letter grades😂 Shoe game is crazy! Thank youuu

[@briancrawford69]

Thanks for this vid. I collect shoes but not super crazy into it so this type of stuff is great

[@eddieg6214]

You best believe im grabbin a B grade shoe off the shelf if i see one 👀 and im ROCKIN the hellll outaa it!

[@reberomime9888]

This helped me a lot, mom of sneaker head boys and one girl here. Thanks will be buying some for my teenage daughter

[@munny_1206]

First video I’m watching but then I went to your channel and seeing you still doing videos, that’s dope!

[@mrwnking]

Shit, I buy shoes from ross and Burlington. When I can't afford shoes at footlocker, snker app etc. Facts.

[@adamheimuli833]

Baller on a budget!

[@tylongkicks8821]

Me too. I definitely will rock those shoes. I don't miss with Ling Ling replicas. I got burned a few years ago on shoes I thought were real on a website were fake as a 3 dollar bill

[@kickinnflickin1646]

Def learned some new things watching this vid. Very informative.

[@virginiabushnell3042]

Thanks for the video. Was looking up shoes online after a nightmare trying to shop for Nikes today. Just couldn’t find any I liked . Finally got a pair though. Went to like 6 different stores before I found a pair. Came across the Jordan 12 b grade golf shoe online and that is a cool shoe though sleek white and blue Also I don’t collect Nikes I do have multiple pairs but I workout in them! Eventually they may get worn enough I might throw them out because they are disgusting but yeah as far as a lil glue goes that is fine with me but I get it. Ended up getting the Nike revolution black shoes and they are whatever… liked the torch 4 Nikes better but it is what it is.

[@demetriusbryson1706]

I’m Cool with being a Air Jordan B’Grade Student....You explained it Perfectly My Brother DNA...!!!

[@icecold1674]

I love my b grade 13 Melos... I can barley is the line of red on them.. plus the value went up from the price I paid for them

[@ONEMusic801]

Great video and solid explanation on B grades, def gonna help a lot of folks out.

[@demarkuswaldon6327]

So i definitely came up.. Blessings to you brother and many continue growth and success and Thank you again for this video.!!!Love how you teach us brother...Blessings to you- Family_Legasee!!!

[@rjphillips3761]

People make me laugh! 🤣 I love shopping at Nike Outlet in Woodburn and on MLK in PDX. I’ve found so many grails when shopping at Nike Outlets over the years it’s crazy. In fact, there’s where I got my black on black 17s when those first dropped back with the briefcase and got my Metallic Red 1s from Woodburn. Toe cap has a slight indent, but can’t notice it when on foot. So many gems I’ve found and for great price! Love the B grades!

[@Antmanhighlights]

Damn bro you got a lick with them Banned 1s minus all the defected pairs. It’s still really cool coming from a collectors perspective. I’ve been into sneakers ever since I can remember and I used to rock a lot of different kicks. But now a days I’m strictly Jordan. It’s pretty crazy how far the sneaker world has came. Anyway always enjoy your content bro keep it up. How’s your latest fixer upper house doing?

[@DNASHOW]

All updates will be uploaded on my second channel 🙌🏽

[@tnogrey7877]

I can’t believe there are a lot of people that don’t even know about b grades lmao

[@btc-50m]

[@MrVvasquez61]

I'll take a B grade any day!

[@decoyslive1731]

great video homie. keep up the good work

[@larrygardner8472]

Great info, will be on the look out for these deals . On Nike and Jordan's

[@Devon523]

Just ordered a pair of 2019 bred 4’s that are B Grade. The shoe is going for $400+ these days and there’s no way I can afford that. So mid totally down with B’s

[@oakiejoelramirez273]

Same with me I really want the Black Cats 4s But the B grades are also expensive

[@dzordyn]

Nike should be thankful for this video. Good job bro

[@LunaMoonBelle]

Thank you! I’m not even a sneaker head but I realllly love the retro fiba 12s and I’m kind of nervous to buy them from online shops

[@zeekthe4-5]

Wow. That Jordan 1 X made me think of the Jordan 9 Black Bottom release

[@CRivera-ng9se]

I just got a pair of b grades red flints does are they still the retail price or should they be less

[@daboss6874]

I’ve never seen that B stamp at Ross and I go there a lot

[@bassbullienation8703]

Got a pair of b grade 4s at footlocker lol and didn't even know till I got home lol

[@idrinkbleach4006]

@@bassbullienation8703 i got b grade at a retail store and they was b grades shit happens sometimes:/

[@ONEMusic801]

At Ross they'll usually be inside the shoe by the label, it'll have a colored stamp that in some cases is really faded.

[@weonlytakews0398]

Keep up the 🔥 vids bro

[@alp1901]

I got the Jordan 4 fiba dead stock for 170

[@adriandavila2766]

The melo 13’s are fire🔥🔥

[@crystalforeman3909]

My playoff 8s I bought from flight club years ago was a b grade. My boyfriend didn't catch it until we got home. He was tight cuz we bought it for the same price as a normal resell pair. First and only b grade in my collection.

[@SoulDaProphet]

😂😂 it’s crazy when you posted about B grades I quickly did some research and learned about them and knew off jump I’ll grab some B grades but once you just dropped this video people stupid to pass up a good looking B grade but hey 🤷🏽‍♂️ more shoes for me 😂🤣

[@streetz6275]

that shoe is spinning in mid air wtf that's cool

[@emperorkelevra]

Ppl think B Grades are UA’s ...listen to this man Cuh...at least on this(first video for me)...as long as it’s from a legit store or reputable person you should be fine(shxt happens though...be careful)

[@gregw3723]

Dope vid bro great topic B Grades are like you said kicks with a factory flaw like when the outlets dropped the melo 13’s everyone wants those and we’re mad they didn’t drop but when they hit the outlets ppl copped I know I did lol

[@purorok8349]

Iv gotten flawless nikes from marshalls and have gotten some at the mall that definitely look b grade and bootleg even i recently got the fiba 4s from footlocker and u can see all kinds of glue and stitchin inconsistencies so many fakes now im convinced even malls and hi end places bootlegs too

[@michaelcancilla9539]

Please think about what you just said. Footlocker sells fakes...cmon man.

[@joeljuarezrip]

DNA always giving game away! Shows a lot of character!!

[@briannotbryan]

Very informative. B Grade Js underrated.

[@joshuasaal1097]

Love the content bro 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@theavielashow3551]

I saw 2 Nike factory store selling B grade air Jordan shoes

[@DNASHOW]

Yea that’s where they’re supposed to sell them

[@alexcamarena1172]

I bought Jordans and limited dunks with bad defects on them real bad stitching and bad glue stains or not glued correctly and Nike did not consider those B grade I paid retail for them I guess Nike quarterly control was sleeping or drunk or high or something that went through them

[@JonJuan206]

The b grades in Seattle are priced at retail and have the Og box. Edit: and no B stamp.

[@ronaldbuenaventura9814]

You think a used Nike Sacai waffle ( green color way ) is worth buying for $380 ?

[@DNASHOW]

This video should help you kzbin.info/www/bejne/a5yYnYypf5dsfZo

[@robertovasallo714]

Fire video

[@tnemomhurb7679]

Essentially B Grades are typically the shoes you see at outlets.

[@la9inebillion]

Can someone please explain why the cactus jack 4s were not considered B-grade sneakers? Them boys had made QC issues lol

[@Geoworldwide]

It's like seeing the same polo shirt Macy's at Marshall's for half the price. Their was a defect and didn't pass quality control. But still real

[@Xeluncy]

What if the stamp in side says the letter R

[@Jemstk]

yea ross aight what other places got em?

[@Rawdog904]

black bottom 9s was a nice b grade

[@oo-to6pc]

Facts bro💯

[@bhizzm]

Wish i could find those diamonds in the raw here in Indonesia. Especially size 13 😢😢

[@yunuskatiksiz3500]

Anywhere you can find B grade shoes in UK ?

[@ryanmadi9929]

Are there B grades website?

[@mohammedsarwarahmed2057]

How comes goat have took off the new with defects in the new update 😭

[@adamheimuli833]

Where can you cop these?

[@thomasketner8964]

To be honest, I can't bring myself to wear my favorite collectibles, especially the ones that jump up in price. I scour the sites for no visible defect B grades to wear. It checks all the boxes. No matter how much care I take, even wearing a shoe once will drop the value significantly. With a no defect B grade, I can rock my favorite pair of Jordan's and keep my non-B-grade babies clean.

[@Devon523]

Anyone know how Nike releases their b grades in relation with a shoes release date? Do the b grades end up in outlet stores on the same day as wide release? Or does it take time for them to trickle out to the outlets?

[@JimmyKantstandyabitz]

Shit I’m going on a shopping spree at Marshals then lmao. I’ve seen some AJ1 before but never got them cause I thought they were fake.

[@youngchazzy2210]

are b grades basically Unothorized authentics?

[@ONEMusic801]

No they're made by the same company along with the A grade ones, the B grades just have a defect that the company decides doesn't pass their top quality control test so they are originals just with a defect that in some cases isnt even noticeable.

[@varga4488]

Yoooo Lemmie cop one of them bans I’m a size 13 😞

[@danielcoronado2941]

So do you believe it’s Oky to sell B grades shoes with defects as same price as resale then the authentic non d grades just asking

[@DNASHOW]

It all depends. Banned 1s we’re b grades and they’re worth more then 90% of these releases.

[@mavmag4418]

Nothing wrong with b-grades shoot I got a b-grade rio 3 for a good price 🎉

[@thatboy_chey6855]

I agree bro ✊🏾

[@Heezgamer]

My jubilees that I won from snkrs have a lil bit of paper in the outsole😂

[@Andyispapi]

How do people even do this shoe thing 😂😭

[@profitboyzee6954]

Bc they enjoy it? And you put them on your feet?

[@zeekthe4-5]

B Grades are fine. The problem is when ppl go on ebay & try to sell them for the retail or higher

[@solkn]

People just dont want to admit they paid so much when they could have got a deal so they hate on B grades

[@dreamsofcazal5744]

Other than Ross or Nike outlets, what other stores sell b grade Jordan’s? StockX is killing my pockets with the resale prices.

[@DNASHOW]

GOAT sells B Grades. I’ll be making a video about that soon

[@dreamsofcazal5744]

DNA SHOW Thank you! I think that will be a great video for sure!

[@MichealC]

B grade is always good.

[@LeeWatson-u2q]

What a E'-2 QC passed?

[@SauneyKicks]

💯💯💯

[@yungfresh2defe]

People are haters period ... Do what u want why let other people control what u like I never understood that ..leaders lead followers follow no fake shii tho lol b grade is ight

[@edamameme1789]

B grades are perfect for wearing.

[@thijsverbeek5940]

Can you still sell B shoes on stockx?

[@thijsverbeek5940]

BALENCIAGA CROCS and is every shoe in an outlet a B grade shoe?

[@DNASHOW]

No

[@bnet8460]

I dont give a shit about what others wear im not checking on people shoes

[@Youngmiyagi]

Pls continue to think these are fake. My aunt worked at Nike factory like 20 years ago and told me about b grades. Ill continue to buy b grades if I can find them. Haven’t had a pair in over 10 years tho least

[@rctraxxasslash4x4nl3]

Bro how am I so early

[@ceemarz818]

As long as you love what you have who cares 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@henryw5763]

If B grade has defects, why not purchase a rep with the same price and better quality?

[@plow5830]

Henry W B grades usually just have small defects and the quality is the same as the ones sold in stores. Reps are definitely NOT better quality than B grades. You can still hoop in B grade basketball shoes but if you hoop in reps that shit will fall apart quick.

[@henryw5763]

P Low I agree that shoes for hooping need to more durable. But, I mean if you are trying to find good deals on some hyped shoes and just walking with them, reps might be better than B grade.

[@showtimeeg1465]

KEEP THIS VID A SECRET.

[@juanp1089]

Fragments were @ Ross⁉️ B grades are not fake FACTS. Yes rock a b grade over a UA. B grade wit the upside down swoosh is a b grade but SUPER VALUABLE

[@rezdout]

The fact they had a drop only for the outlet is some Kanye ish those banned with a capital B

[@profitboyzee6954]

B grades and replicas completely different, you gotta explain this?

[@mybmxandi]

Hey!!!!!

[@TrillYungWavy]

I be telling people b grades are not fake

[@noi_colney2897]

🤩🤩🤩😱😱😱

[@lrac_1]

Lol 😂 I refuse to believe my Burlington and Ross dunks are B grade...especially the 5+ year ones..but I do have those melo 13s

[@tyronechiles4888]

Whats a fake sneaker if there real

[@darcylockwood296]

if i posted a super high quality fake and asked if it was fire they would agree they are fire too because they don't know they are fake similar to people thinking a b grade is fire not noticing the defects so its not really the best way of explaining and you should have mentioned people sell fakes as "B grade" to try get away with selling fakes and that's a big part in why people dont wanna risk it with b grades. but if you find it in store why the fuck not. but personally i probably would only if the shoe was out of my price range non b grade like your banned 1s for example

[@gabkoost]

This is a 2014 type of video.

[@moboots]

Tbh i think its ok to even wear fakes as long as ur not trying to sell em and pass em off as real, i bet ppl in 3rd world countries want these kicks so bad but cant afford to pay the same amount they probably paid for their houses🤷‍♂️

[@ernanv24]

That's b grade 2011 Jordan banned is now 5k resell 😂😂😂
