Yo!! two mistakes in the video worth pointing out, we showed the Motorsport blues instead of the military blues and also, I said “2005 Nike Retro Remaster Initiative” instead of 2015. My bad lol
Chill out man, these mistakes are not too serious, the important is the video content about the sneaker itselg
I had the Oreo 4’s, an amazing shoe it was
Can we get a vid on the jordan 13 or 8
👍👍👍 as soon as heard that i went to the comments and saw you corrected yourself 👍👍👍
OG ALWAYZZZZ
Love the vid, but the Military Blues were represented by the photo of the Motorsport colorway
Oh shit! Haha
@@NachoAverageFinds I appreciate the realness 💯👍
Jordan brand and Nike logo Jordan’s fall under different licenses
Can we give some respect to the designer who created one of Jordan’s best shoe.
Tinker Hatfield the goat 🐐
White Cement 4's is where everything started for Me. Favorite sneaker ever and the first one I bought with my own money.
That’s the best gateway colorway for sure 😎
Na ya tripping! The blk 4s is my fav! I wear mine a lot and i have like 200 pairs of kicks 🤣💀🤣
White cement 4's are a pretty good pair to cut your teeth on. I can relate: I cut lawns all summer for a pair of blue-toe Iversons
you know DAMN well the Tallahassee Mall robber was wearing some triple black AF1s
Hahah 100%
The metallic pack/pure moneys really accentuate how amazing the Jordan 4 silhouette is. The all white colorway brings out the panels.
I like the those a lot
“My brother nacho and I”...
Exploring Men’s Fashion sup bro 😎😎 it’s big nacho
NachoAverageFinds when I hear that I get excited because I’m about to watch a dope video. You guys have inspired me. I’m 22 from RI and want to make videos like yours . Thank you for inspiring us and giving us great content that we love.
I believe Jordan’s started using the jumpman on the heel when Jordan became its own brand and were trying to set themself apart from Nike as being their own thing. I don’t mind a jumpman on the heel, but the Nike air really gives it that special OG feel
Nike air on ogs or I don’t want it
I prefer the Nike logo instead of the Jumpan logo
I’m in the Same boat
We all do
Lol who doesnt?
I’m cool with either, But since I’m 44, I Love the sneakers how they were in Price and Aesthetics from back back in the day....$108....lol
yeah it not og... jumpman... you can find in alot of model...
“Ellow” ?
E-Low !
🤣
😭😭😭🤷♂️
Right 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Shaqtin a fool
His mispronounciation of Ehlo really bothers me because I've never heard anyone say it like that. Which tells me that he wasn't watching the NBA back then nor has he ever watched a replay of this game despite making a video about it and that bothers me. Does this guy even know what he's talking about? If anything it makes him appear as very poserish. Whats next, "Michael Jor--Dan"
Btw any & all Jordan remakes that aren't exactly exactly OG are complete trash. When i see a pair of IV with just the jumpman it makes me wanna puke.
Honestly the IV and the VI are tied for being my favorite shoe of all time!
For me the 3s and the 5s are also one of the best
Same
Agreed
Glad to see someone the same as me
I agree. IVs caught my attention. But my dad said it wasn't happening. But by the time the VIs came out I had my own money.
Like the OG 'Nike AIR' on the heels for the OG Colorways. The Jumpman for other Colors is dope in my opinion!
That’s a good take. Def keep the OG OG for me tho
Facts Original Air Jordan Colorways Always Have Nike Air Plus The Shape & Quality Too
When you think of “the shot” you always think of the bred Jordan 4’s.
When I had my pair and wore them out I always wound up hearing stories from older people about the shot against Cleveland because of the shoes Keep up the great work guys! 👌🏽🏀👟
Thanks man! I appreciate the thoughtful comment. Haha The old folks know what’s up and actually lived through it!
White Cement 4s are my favorite sneakers, EVER.
I got a pair of the 2016 White Cement 4s for Christmas in 2019. Besides being my favorite colorway of my favorite silhouette, my particular pair holds a lot of meaning for me personally. On the inside of each shoe, you'll see a label that has among other things, production dates. On both shoes, the last production date was the date I survived a car crash almost 5 years ago.
Jordan 4’s are my favorite Jordan model of all time. Military blue 4’s from 06’ were my first ever pair of jordans, I think I was in 5th grade at the time. Special shoe to me fr.
One of the best from the Jordan line 😎
Cement 4 and bred 4 with the Nike Air stay in my collection
I just hate the cracking of the midsole 😭😭
@@NachoAverageFinds Dont believe the paint cracks happen on the newer ones.
I got the 2016 cements does anyone know of the paint cracking too early? I’ve only worn them once so far and haven’t heard many complaints about it
Owen Young you’re good bro
My 2 favorite 4s
I remember when I was in college I found a Fire Red 4's in a shop for 40 bucks (2000 pesos in the Philippines). It was the first shoe that I saved money for and the first one that I bought with my own money. I literally thrashed it until the stitching in the toe box separated and the midsole crumbled. It was one of my shoes that I regrettably thrashed because years later after college, I found out that Air Jordan 4's with a Nike Air back tab are valuable. If I know earlier I would have taken care of it
Yes, it had a Nike Air back tab and it cost just 40 bucks
You got them for a steal back then! Peace to all my homies in PH! Thanks for following man
My favorite is the black cement 4s by far. I remember seeing the union pair and I didn’t hate it but I wasn’t impressed because the renders looked vastly better. I definitely liked them more when I saw them on feet but I never thought they looked terrible like people were saying
I was one of the people who didn’t like them at first honestly haha now I have a pair
The Jordan 4's are underrated in my opinion, these sneakers can be grails if you know what colorway to get.
I wouldn’t say underrated lol they’re pretty popular but yeah I agree. Some are def grail status!
There not underrated! They are just crazy expensive! You have to drop at least 5-600 for a fresh pair offline 🤣💀🤣
UNDERRATED?!?!
@@Dreweybaby 5 to 600?!?!?! Whee the he$$ are you getting your kicks from?
@@C0bbler_J0nes goat and ebay.. but i got mine for 360 off Ebay
I'm getting a pair of Jordan 4s. I haven't been happier 😭
You’re going to love them
@@NachoAverageFinds this is the first time a youtuber replies to my comment🙏🥺
The Jordan 4 Fire Red’s was the first pair of Jordan’s I ever owned. My mom bought them for me when I was a kid. I was not aware of how big the Jordan brand was & everywhere we went, people would look & point at my shoes🤣 & that’s what hooked me to Jordan’s. I have a DS pair of them now that I will never wear in her memory. Great video! & RIP to my mom🙏🏽
Been w/ you guys for a while now and just wanted to send some love and appreciation for what's been happening w/ the channel. The quality of storytelling just keeps getting better and better! Back in the day when Nacho was mining Ross for treasure, he could barely get you Brian to comment or have facetime w/ the camera and now... check you out, a smooth frontman storeyteller. Really impressive w/ what you both have put together and always look forward to the next installment. 100k subs coming soon!
Damn you been rocking with us for a minute! Thank you so much Corey! Means a lot 💪💪
DTRT is my favorite movie of all time! I just notice that it’s no way that guy scuff those shoes from that angle!
😂😂😂
I remember hearing about that on the news. I’m from Tallahassee. It’s crazy how tens year later the Tallahassee Mall barely has any stores left. Only thing left now is the outlets and the movie theater.
Love ALL the Vids guys …. How you go into detail with every shoe and it’s design, you give backstory, sketches, commercials etc EXCELLENT…. U earned a new Subscriber Great Work
This just finished off my Friday night nicely- cheers guys, much appreciated 👊🏼👌🏼🙌🏼
Yesss! Happy to hear it man. Have a great weekend
My all time favorite sneaker... absolutely
Great pair forsure
one of my favorites. i was able to get the union 4 taupe haze from the union raffle, fire reds , and the lightnings thus far. the aj4 white oreos are now in my sights.
The episode I have been waiting for.
Mad respect.
Thanks man! I’m glad that you enjoyed. Mad respect to you
Really needed this, thanks for uploading :)
Thank you for tuning in 🙏🙏
I love this channel bc I always love watching sneaker history really good content.
Thanks for watching
Thank you for doing this!!!
The 4s are one of my favorite sneakers. Theyre crazy comfortable on and off the court. The only drawback is they tend to be a hot shoe so not really a good summer shoe in 90+ weather.
Good luck getting your hands on a pair post COVID as they typically sell out in minutes on-line
LIGHTNING YELLOWS. The Slides of the Nike Air Jordan 4 Lightning Yellow are dope too! 💯
Thanks! I've been waiting for this
Thank you!
A great video again guys,the Air Jordan 4 is one of my dream shoes thanks for the info and history again
Time to get yourself a pair man 💪
Thank you so much for these videos, you are my main source of sneaker history information and I love the way you make your vids.
Thank you Richard. We’re flattered. Got many more on the way
@@NachoAverageFinds I'm already excited
Just got done with school , I needed this video 🥳🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Glad you enjoyed Mauricio!
I always wanted the Jordan 4 white cement. I'm willing to do anything good or evil to own one.
Densetsu San that would be my favorite colorway
@@NachoAverageFinds yes ! So I also watch Complex sneaker shopping and some stores got it. A celebrity called G easy bought one. What a lucky bastard!!!
I need to buy a fresh pair again. The 2016 ones I just threw away started tearing apart.
Just save up.. they cost about 500$ on stockx
Managed to grab a pair back in November for 330 before the prices started going up only wore them once so far on a trip back home to NYC. I’m hoping next time they retro they have the higher cut on the collar like the OG”s
Your vids are amazing! Dope channel. Keep it up!
I was waiting soooo much this video. I love your channel, man, keep going
Glad we could deliver man
Love your channel!!
I've honestly never been the biggest fan of most J's, 4s in particular were one pair I never liked too much. I was a skater back in the day so it wasn't even that I didn't like bulkier shoes. As soon as I saw the Union 4s the day they leaked they instantly reminded me of my old skate shoes that I'd wear into the ground. Everything from the new paneling to the short "puffy" tongue just hit all the right nostalgia notes. I know Chris Gibbs wasn't going for that but it still spoke to me as if that was the inspiration. I ended up copping on Union's site, I was so scared I'd miss out to people that spent the last few weeks shit talking so I was so stoked to get mine.
This is more important than going to 7th period, glad that you guys have posted another video. Thanks guys, really appreciated
Hahaha I appreciate it bro. Glad you could learn
Glad I stumbled upon your channel a month ago, really wanna cop the fire reds dropping this Nov tho
Thanks John! Those fire reds low key look pink in the official images right? Haha I want to cop too but Idk
History on Barkley's, Pippen's, Shawn Kemps, Sprewells Dada Spinners, DWades Converse and Jordan Lines, The Starburries , Grant Hills Filas 🤘 that would be dope.
I own the 2011 cement 4s so i got the one with the jumpman tab, I dunno why but I really get nostalgia seeing that tab and remembering the whole past decade
That makes total sense to me. Nostalgia plays a big role in buying decisions
I'm part of the FB group because i love your content! One of the 3 channels with notification bells
We’re grateful to you man! Appreciate you man ❤️❤️💪💪
I was gifted my first pair of (what the) 4s a couple weeks ago. A shoe i never got now, on foot, makes so much sense. As always, good shit fam!!
Thanks Loren! Congrats on the come up 😎 those are 🔥
When you guys miss out on a sneaker on the apps, instead of being upset just take it as a sign to enjoy the ones that you have. I’m not saying don’t keep trying, but just use that negative energy you feel towards feeling good about the ones that you have already.
Facts 💯
Thanks for this vid!
Thanks Jeffrey!
Yoo lets go! I've been waiting for this video!
Glad we could deliver bro!
Another dope video! 🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥😎
The 4s are classic and while some of the color ways are not my favorite, I’ll always appreciate he silhouette.
This was an awesome video. Thanks
Thanks Abel!
good content mate !!
I'm more of a J3 guy because of its simplicity but after watching this, I want a shot at the Fire Red 4s this holiday hahah! Another dope clip. Above average, man!
Thanks Nigel! More of a 3 guy myself haha good luck on hitting on those fire reds
Great content as always sir!
Thank you man!
Love these videos keep up the dope work👏🏼
Nice video keep up the great work.
Will do !! 😎
Own both color renditions of the AJ4s, with jumpman and Nike Air logos on the heels. But the white cement 4s will always be that holy grail for me as I remember being a high school freshman kid back in 89’ watching a Wheaties commercial with what appeared to be a basketball in background on an indoor court, as the camera is low to the floor panning through a line up of all the Wheaties cereal boxes that donned iconic sports legends from Babe Ruth, Bob Richards to Bruce Jenner, sorry meant Kaitlin to Pete Rose, Mary Lou Retton, Chris Evert, suddenly appearing in the background was Mike bouncing the ball up close until the camera passes Walter Payton on a box, until you got to a blank Wheaties box with now showing a snippet peak of the right foot of an Air jordan we weren’t familiar with as Mike stops bouncing and then slams the basketball to the floor and throwing his left foot up on to the basketball while quickly showing that it was possibly the New Air jordan 4 (later Revealed in an Air Jordan 4 commercial) and picking up the Wheaties cereal box flipping over for another reveal of his jumpman profile on the box was so iconic to me as what really started my love and collection for sneakers.
Really a timeless shoe. Tons of nostalgia for people that actually lived through the release. I’m jealous ;)
Enjoying y’all videos . Jordan’s all day 💯23
I love more 3’s more than 4’s. Great video guys as always ❤️
Both are legendary
NachoAverageFinds yes my man.
Love the Nike Air logo. It fits the Jordan 3-6 motif perfectly.
The IV is my favorite Jordan. I'm old. I was 10 when they came out, and I lived in NC. Jordan winning the 84 Championship for UNC is one of my earliest memories. So, of course, I want that Nike Air on the back. I was too poor to get them as a kid. I got the 2012 reissue, and wore them into the ground, but every time I wore them, I wanted to see that big, badass Nike Air logo on the back.. Prolly gonna have to cop these, just to finally feel like 1989 me would be impressed with adult me.
We can't make these videos 30 minutes long. I'm over here like"Why not. I'd watch it". Keep up the great work.
Haha In the future I’d love to do that
Another classic sneaker history video!
Thank you !
Great video guys keep it up
dope video as always nacho and brian! sending love to my Gs as always haha!🔥👌
Thanks Dennis! Much appreciate my man
Love these " history of" videos, the IV's are my favorite silhouette so been waiting for this one.
Glad you enjoyed Geraldo 💪
i was working at a Foot Locker when these were first released. It was pretty chaotic then, since the only way to buy them was to go to the store and line up. I was fortunate enough to buy the white/cement and black/cement at 40% off, thanks to the employee discount..
Damn! You got hooked up
Thanks for the great vid
Thank you!!!
He said Craig "Ello" 😂
Haha Ayeee
I just got my 1st pair of 4s a few months ago. The Midnight Navys. I’ve always loved 4s all my life, k just never felt I could rock the color ways cuz I maybe wasn’t cool enough lol. But, I’m so happy with the midnight navys cuz they literally go with anything and everything.
That my friend, is NOT the military 4’s. It’s the sport blue 4’s or Motorsport inspired 4’s
Yee my fault. Thanks for pointing it out
You got the wrong shoe for the Military Blue at 3:03, those are the Motorsport 4s
Yee my fault G
One of my top five favorite Jordan models
thanks again!
Thank you man!
4s are definitely one of my favorites. Look good and feel good.
I feel they really not that comfortable
Just copped the Union collab! These shoes rocks and they have an amazing history behind them, I'd love to keep these but i need money and I've already got too many shoes lol. I haven't even seen the video but I know it'll be great!
Hell yeah man! Which ones did you cop? I got the Guava ones
NachoAverageFinds I picked the off-noirs! Imo they’re more matchable, but with the right pair Guavas’ll look really fresh!
I had a pair of the flight nostalgia fours for about 3 years but I just sold them yesterday. Lol. Now I have a pair of retro 4's that I always wanted, the what the retro 4's. I was always a fan of the mix match colorways of certain Jordan retros into one shoe. The what the was my favorite of all. I have a pair of the top three retro fives where it has elements of the fire red fives, black metallic fives, and grape fives. I don't know I'm weird like that. Lol.
Love me some 4’s. I’ve bought so many through the years. Was the first shoe I saved money for back in the day.
I don't even really wear Jordans but I love these videos, so dope
Appreciate you Seth 🤟
New content... thanks!
Thanks Fidel!
Cant wait for more vids :)
Thanks Rhett! Got some more on the way
Dope video as usual.
Thanks dude!!
I always get blazed before I watch a new drop and I always feel like nachos whenever you mention your brother Hahaa
Hoping for a video explaining stories behind Jordan colorways. 💯💯💯
Definitely thanks for watching man
I did not know that this side of RUclips is so chill
Great vedio just sub from jamaica 🇯🇲
I was wondering where you guys 😎 were at, I have a feeling cooking up some dope concepts.
The union collab with some history 😁.
I’m super happy with my Unions! I got the guava pair sittin on ice right now 😎
98-99 retro versions featured "Nike Air" on the rear as the original. In the silver box. I know, because I had them. The Jumpman version on the pull tab came afterwards.
The dunk from above 4's are my favorite
This my fav Air Jordan mayb!
One of the best!!
could we get a jordan 6 vid? amazing work btw keep it up
I definitely was hating on the Union 4s but I got a pair in hand and there are now forever a part of my collection.
My next J. So psyched to see this video on my list, also I prefer the Jumpman logo on the 6s onwards. Pre 6 I love the Nike air logo
Really can’t go wrong with a pair of 4s!
I love the og logo it’s dope
My favorite shoe on one of my favorite channels? 👍💯✅ Thanks for the *QUALITY content & keep up the great work.
Og nike logo fo sho! I loved the first time I saw the union 4s especially the guavas. I was like yo those are so different. I was able to cop 😬.
I like the yellow soles
I’m so hyped for the fire red fours
Yeee November
