Bro i need that mid video on the old vs new ones i dont know the difference ik the difference on the lows and still watching it

[@ricarroyo5470]

Im confuse & im pretty sure you wont answer but if someone can help a rican out so og is the real ones and air 1 retro are made by nike aka a knock off version & what are jumpman are they made by nike and are air 1 retro & jumpman real jordans or good to have can someone look out

[@jluis_soto]

Man! Id love to see a comparison between the new and the old mids!

[@flykickz_tv5116]

Yessssss

[@Reediculous79]

Me too

[@mastervz4806]

@@anthonymontemagni0p160 the quality on mids are pretty trash. I bought a bunch of them recently and returned them all.

[@mrdinosaurproductions9507]

@@anthonymontemagni0p160It’s cause highs have better color ways. Why can’t y’all nail it in your head it’s just because of the height. Also, that less than 2 inch difference makes it look WAYY better

[@2boomin]

​@@anthonymontemagni0p160 I don't have a hate so much as a a preference...highs just feel better, the tongue is way more comfortable (for me at least), and the materials are just better. but at the end of the day, rock what you like 🤷‍♂️ I have some mids I like, and some Lows I wear regularly

[@akaron5498]

I would like a comparison between the early 2Ks mids and today's mids. Would be dope to see how the cuts have changed.

[@MicLogan427]

I love the Retro's! Wish they'd put higher quality leather on them, to compliment the already premium look and feel. I have 2 pairs of retro's, crazy comfortable.

[@christianchandralim]

I like the OG Low because I think it does look better. I don't get any 'nostalgic' vibes from it because I wasn't even born yet when the model came out lol.

[@xAstNi]

The sizing is different also!! Retro is a thicker shoe and i need a EUR 45 while OG are less thick and i need EUR 44.5

[@TheAleStrife]

I still try the recent OG mocha (my first j1 low) but my theory (before touching them) is that 'half size down' is ok only for OG with 8 holes and bigger swoosh. Like previous OG (shadow 2015 for example) or all recent Travis Scott J1 Low. These recent Low OG are a sort of hybrid (always 'in my opinion before touching them') between the 'old' 8 holes OG and these 'jumpman tongue' J1 low.

[@tylerthenormal9059]

For whatever reason, the og lows from 2015/2016 looked more true to the original 1985 ones with 8 eyelets instead of 7 as well as the bigger swoosh. Not really sure why the more recent og lows got changed.

[@celestewatson6212]

I have both and prefer the ogs for style, comfort and materials. I also like mids but don’t have any of the old ones. Would love to see the difference between the two. Favorite Disney Movie was Lion King!

[@AJSmith-fx9bn]

I love some of the unique colourways they have in the retros, like the J1 low Paintbrush, but still nothing beats an OG low or high!

[@klizzyykicks1712]

I have both and yes low Og’s are better but retros have a better value right now.. those royals are around $200-$220 and the light smoke greys are around $250-$275 but with the lower retail the retro wins the value argument

[@Neo5GT]

My favorite Disney movie was the Fox and the Hound which gives away my age but hey, I also rocked OG Js as they released. Had 2 Chicagos and 1 Royal Toe all in the mid 80’s when my love affair began. Passed on the 2s but was blown away and in love 😍 with the 3s and 4s even before they released as my friends and I would skate to sneaker stores and drool at Nike catalogues of what was coming out next year: Flights, Command forces, Barkleys, Air Techs, Maxes, Trainers, Bo’s and ACGs

[@AimForTheBushes908]

Cool nostalgia moment👍

[@bahamashadow2535]

For $100 you can have as many different color ways as you want… that almost makes the retro lows worthy of pickups. Just saying!!

[@EvanMiller-q8j]

Agree; retro lows have great color ways. You can creat a nice collection at a moderate and reasonable cost.

[@e9cw196]

In the UK we are being ripped off with our prices wth

[@0n3z]

Quality over quantity bru

[@waycoolkc]

I got both of those shoes and the neutral greys are definitely underrated🔥

[@Shmitty2023]

You be on point FAM. Nothing like being a student if your craft. A great example of (your gift will make room for you).

[@briznazty]

Definitely a good video for new sneakerheads! Quite a difference between the two, and not just the price!

[@JesseBrownstein]

This is an excellent, very detailed breakdown comparison. A lot of work must have gone into producing this. Good job!

[@DNASHOW]

Thank you 🙌🏽

[@Jaders93]

OGs purely for quality 🔥 You should definitely do new vs old mids

[@rickrickboom5423]

Well I have learnt something today. Just grabbed myself a pair of OG UNC's

[@bznation2573]

I know the OG is better quality and gives a more nostalgic vibe but I'm with the retros simply because I think they look better...I have both OG & Retro but I prefer the retros overall

[@carmendewa2449]

Super cool ive just started collecting sneakers and now i know the diff thank you so much. Love from Oz 🇦🇺❤

[@Beardalorian]

This made sense. BUUUUT how come some of the OG lows have the retro name in it? Like my black toes I ordered. It's the OG with all the features here talked about but has the retro name in the title as well.

[@DamienGultig]

Another thing to keep in mind between the ‘85 lows and the retro OGs that dropped 15/16 is the extra lace hole, bigger toe box and larger swoosh. JBrand has been using the older design with extra lace hole etc on the Travis lows. But yeah definitely OGs over retros for me.

[@TwoGuns1891]

@DNASHOW DAMN-! DJ! Another education for me! I have OG Low’s as well…Dunk Low’s, SB’s. I appreciate the quality of both…they both feel comfortable especially after wearing my Jordan 5’ or 4’s, yea, I can chill in either my shoe brother! It’s Good getting some knowledge from you bud, and- another good video!

[@QueMusiQ]

Yeah, do the mids. I’m new to Jordans. My momma wouldn’t let me cop em when I was in 4th grade. I only have the Brotherhoods because I’m an Omega and I’m like 🤯🤯🤯

[@QuinnLIFTS]

Not only is the swoosh bigger and true to the OG on the Travis, but they also have the correct number of lace holes, 8 vs 7 on the GR Jordan 1 Low OGs.

[@chrismiranda5648]

yes and the toe box! I don't see how people count that out with the true OG lows, all the Travis's have the real OG cut all the way around.

[@gospelcentered101]

The og lows are supposed to have a larger swoosh. Travis low has it on the mid panel

[@alexh8503]

This neutral gray is not a true OG low.. idk why he think it is.

[@TheAleStrife]

@@alexh8503 yeah, i suppose these recent OG are a sort of 'almost' OG. Real OG seems to be more 'big' (like shadow 2015 or travis), and for these the 'half size down' rule is good. But, these recent OG seems more narrow. i still not sure at 100% because i still try a recent OG (mocha 2024), but this is my opinion.

[@artart4326]

They both dope. I like the Retro it has the Jumpman logo on the tongue but i hate big and long tongue That’s why i prefered the OG because of the small tongue i felt like it’s easy to paired with my chinos.

[@estebanpagan3334]

Thanks for being who you are man keep it up👍👍👍

[@DomO22]

and this is…the DNA show AYEEEE😁

[@nhanpham7154]

OG for life

[@efin_jay1293]

Some retros come with extra laces. My laser blue lows came with blue, white and black laces

[@guitarmaniacgino]

I knew it. I noticed this when I compared my J1 Low Triple White pair with my friends J1 Travis Low OG pair. Low OGs have "softer" leather and much more comfy to wear compared with the Non-OG.

[@sheikhjames]

Fascinating and educational 😊

[@spikeburless]

Yo, you did the high and low. I think the mid video is and would be a good one. Thx

[@josephcarvalheira3680]

That would have to be Fantasia! Love that old school magic! 😁😁😁

[@Youngmiyagi]

I only have 1 retro low. I plan on getting 1 og low. Material is that low quality almost synthetic leather on the retros. They do have a dunk vibe. If you’re going to buy mids and lows I’d suggest going se route. Don’t ever let anyone tell u what’s hot and what’s not. Wear what u like

[@rintomura2025]

Is aj1 low special edition better than retro

[@Youngmiyagi]

@@rintomura2025 yes. If you’re going to get a Jordan 1 retro make sure it’s og, sp, se. Those are better quality than the Jordan 1 retro. Jordan 1 retros I would compare to gr Nike dunk pandas

[@rintomura2025]

@@Youngmiyagi yes ur right, my friend have the aj1 low embroidered the leather quality feels good

[@Big3DREAMER]

og lows run a littel bigger. for me at least. i got size 10 in both retro and og lows and the retro lows definitely fit more snug

[@dofpat]

Make the mid video now! FR though… there are some new mids that have some nice materials and colorways…

[@lrac_1]

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 tell people I only like the ogs they never knew the amount of difference until you point it out…

[@kevinbrekke8823]

Dope shoes!! I just picked up a pair of my own Neutral Grey’s, and I love them!!

[@DemetriusJRoss]

That Travis Scott Fortnite drop was crazy! Glad to see you still wearing yours!

[@ashwinravishankar1475]

Thanks for this valuable information 👍🏼

[@TREADSTONE71_]

The OG low retros are hella comfortable

[@rickquesada925]

Excellent video. Thank you.

[@Seanype]

Daum I just got me a pair of retros, love them so much but will be looking for some OG lows now! ✌️🇦🇺

[@glennhaskins]

Aladdin, yo imma need that video on the mids 💯

[@bruhkisg6662]

Thanks for vids like these….I have been recollecting my favorites and new loves for several years and never knew the differences….I’m old so but bed knobs and broomsticks was a movie well before my time but it’s one of the few Disney movies I own and if it ever comes on tv, I gotta watch it.

[@trnt2litt300]

Og lows feel way better but u are limited on color ways and also the resell is crazy on most of the OG lows, retros you can double up easy!!

[@alexfirth21]

Def do the old mids vs new mids. I just subscribed 👍🏾

[@JyC1025]

How about the sizing? Are they same?

[@Essza3]

Ok but do the lows have the TM sign or not?

[@HomeTeamGTV]

Definitely overlooked all this thanks 😅

[@NutnFancy21]

awesome video bro. This was definitely needed for those of us getting into the Jordan game. much Aloha from Honolulu bro

[@mattaue]

OG’s are like the High’s of the Low’s and the retro’s are like the Mid’s of the Low’s

[@P4blo3]

Another way to look at og’s is as sb’s and the retros as Nike dunks

[@tylermorris8464]

i’ve owned retros over ogs for years cause i’m not a fan of ogs but it really only goes down to the box the rear logo and tongue because on older retros the cut is exactly the same as ogs and some new depending what colour way and from personal use and abuse to retros the leather is very similar and when the leather creases it doesn’t crack i may be wrong but personally unless the ogs are a collab like the zion williamsons or the travis scott’s i don’t see a difference

[@Pete_da_Greek]

The TS x frag low is a true OG cut. It has the wide toe box & also has 8 lace holes. As the new OG lows have the thinner toe box like the retros & also have 8 lace holes.

[@邓云鹏-l5t]

you mean 7 holes？

[@lendlibuan8652]

I prefer the one with a higher tongue Since Im short, its hard for me to pull off a high or mid So by the higher tongue of the retro And wearing a tight jeans, it creates an illusion of me wearing a high

[@garrettchristopher3462]

I GARANTEE the newer low would be more comfortable if they both had nike air.

[@derryksandiford5434]

Better quality materials on the OGs, but waaaaay better colorways on the retros.

[@chrismiranda5648]

The toe box homie..neither of these have the same cut as the Travis lows. Those have a true OG 85' cut. Toe box is wider, and 8 lace holes vs 7.

[@tharunraaj8391]

Great video!

[@Akushasmith]

I am a huge og high fan but do rock lows from time to time and all are og lows.

[@uknowthevibez2906]

u should make a vid about new vs old mids

[@TomCantu-q2x]

Excellent job!

[@solidstream13]

Thanks for the video

[@pabloescobar1106]

So I paid like $350 for some 2019 black toe AJ1 lows, and I see 2023 Retro og black toe for like $150?? Why is that? Is it cause they’re brand new?

[@TFrail]

Would love a comparison vid of new vs old mids!!!

[@sirlikesmagicalot]

The 21/22 AJ 1 OG low are not actually the OG. If you look at Travis 1 low fragments for example, the TS one has 8 eyelets and a bigger regular swoosh, whereas the neutral grey 1 low OG has only 7 eyelets and the swoosh is more smaller like the modern days of jordan sneakers we have been getting. My guess is that JB wants people buy into hype to get the OG form of shoe which is slick of them. It is what it is....

[@sinyeh6937]

the new 85 neutral grey🔥

[@DavidS.Pumpkin]

As far as Disney movies. It's a three-way for me, between Aladin, Lion King,( had to watch in the movie theater in order to go see B.I.G.😀) and lion king 1and a half.

[@andredavis2781]

The OGs reflect an SB presentation more than the retros. But I get what you saying. Also retros can come with an extra pair of shoe strings as well. The extra strings don’t make or break OG or retro difference. The only true difference is box, material quality, toe box cut, rear logo tab/height & tongue. Pricing difference is only $15-$25.

[@samuelmunoz1464]

I like the retro's cut more than the OGs TBH.

[@dannyrussano5723]

Awesome explanation.

[@LeFlurLeflaEshkoshka]

I hate how long the tongue is on the low retro. Dope video

[@0n3z]

The og/original looks more slim/cut

[@cybex121]

Do dunks and Jordan low for the same? Like would you buy same size in both?

[@syamsul6063]

always loved the OG. hated the long tongue on the retro and the jumpman logo.

[@Sharock7]

I thought the video was very interesting and how you broke it down between the differences of the two shoes. I am thinking for now on I will target the ones with the Nike air on them. Again video and presentation was 👍🏿👌🏿

[@michaeljones3361]

I have a new pair of the retro low SE.. not as good as the OG but much nicer than a regular retro...

[@chronodaemon]

I honestly prefer the low's design over the og low

[@tommypdcantcopsht]

Im pretty new to collecting jordans so I might be wrong but from what I see, while the OG are better materials and build quality, they would drastically reduce availability as most of the non-hype GR jordan 1 lows are retro correct? For example the only og currently available for retail from nike is the black/powder blue, with I think 2 others over the last year roughly. Where as the retro I assume are pretty much everything else(553558 part numbers?) with much more selection? Side note, on the highs what are "retro high og"? Are they retro or og? As many high are labeled this way.....

[@DNASHOW]

That is correct. I have another video that explains more about Jordan 1s for you. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aKiXeZSmd76DZrM

[@tommypdcantcopsht]

@@DNASHOW thanks a bunch, gonna watch it now

[@jasonfeifer928]

Beauty and the beast 🔥

[@noxify2869]

Love that they dont have the ridiculous tongue with the OGs

[@marcellangevin]

Me personally, I would never wear a Jordan 1 with Jumpman branding. The jumpman did not exist when the Jordan 1 released in '85. To me, it just dosn't look right. Thats just my opinion and my vibe. Thanks for the vid!

[@Sproutt]

Sb tounges are not the same. But im sure retro is somewhat puffy.

[@Pete_da_Greek]

You need to do any 85-99 OG low's vs the new OG lows

[@wnJhntn]

Man is literally 898k away from 1m, but the quality is on par

[@DNASHOW]

🙌🏽😂📈📈📈

[@rodellomandas882]

Nice explanation.

[@th3orist]

these are indeed so not the same, in fact the AJ1 Low OG is for me the superior shoe. Alone that huge tongue on the regular 1 Low is a no go by now for me.

[@xTr1pPiN18x]

Gotta be Hercules with the Air Herc sneakers

[@robertfreeman1673]

We need a mids video bro

[@mrcoolorhot8595]

Same fitting and sizing?

what about the 2015 versions that went for clearance at the time? larger swooshes and the 5th eyelet!

[@ojj7477]

Do they fit diff?

[@DNASHOW]

Yes

[@ojj7477]

Which one runs bigger/smaller?

[@cryptoopinion13]

Size difference and feel?

I dont .ike the heel counter of the retro...

[@Kantotis_adiktudis]

Eyyy men you missed to say the position of holes in OG and retro theyre not the same and yup agree that og has much good quality in material but retro are too much good lookin than OG OG is like yall lookin at dunks thats why...

[@wzrgirl5871]

A million subscribers ?? Did this guy get canceled or something. I love the content, also would love a mids video

[@jeremymatthews2709]

I love the retros. I just wish the leather didn’t crease so easily.

I know people gonna prefer the OG lows but the retro lows got so many dope color ways

I prefer the retro lows tbh
