I copped them on release day and wore them yesterday, been with my GF for 5 years now and it's the first time she told me that my Js were looking good haha
The nubuck scratch thing isn’t true mostly… over time with a bit of brushing or just thumb the scratch will go away I’ve had them for a day and just brushed those scratches away! Other than that probably the best Jordan 1 of the year
Okay pause here at 1:55 to say something before i continue watching, espresso 1s would've been a very cool name for a sneaker like the coolest sneaker name in a while
The mochas just have a much better color blocking, I passed on these due to the too much black, even though I like the brown color better. Great review!!!
Personally, I think the brown leather/nubuck on the shoe is great! Jordan 1's look better worn, and the brown leather will give the opportunity for the shoe to show some character and age better over time. Thanks for the review!
I don’t have any of these colour so I go for palomino. In india this pair not launch yet so I pay resale to buy this pair but I think it’s worth to pay resale for this pair.
Not nubuck my g… I’m pretty sure it’s an unfinished leather…cause there’s several nubuck pairs and none leave scratches like this…. But I but I assume the patina will build nicely… Ps Pretty sure mink oil will remove the scratches…
Got my pair yesterday and i love them, but they didn't bother with QC on my pair and the brown leather on the toe is all stretched and funky looking. I guess I'm returning them and hoping that the resale on big sizes goes down a little.
Technically its not a price increase, 65$ in 1985 (what the jordan 1 retailed for) is about 191$ today so they haven't increased the price in terms of value its just the number. this is because of inflation
I put mink oil on mine. Raw leather should be treated to protect the leather from the elements. It also darkened the brown a bit, they look much better now IMO.
I did the brown areas of the Palomino because they looked dry. That's why everyone is complaining about the leather showing scratches, it's because the leather is dry. Mink oil doesn't help coated leather by the way.
It's not a nubuck leather... it's slightly untreated leather (great quality). Which is prone to stains if not treated properly. Took mine to a boot maker as I live above one and he gave me some wax (beeswax) to treat the material and waterproof them! This said if not waxed these will patina nicely over time :).
Oddly here w/ya... but in dark colors look better than light for me. Sadly my L&F look... weird on foot. Something about the outsole shape near the pinky toe. Polomino for some reason dont give me the same vibe even being the same shape. I gotta blame colors idfk
Every RUclipsr is like if you have another pair with the same color brown why do you need this ? Maybe for the same reason you can own Chicago’s, breds and black toes altogether Cuz they’re not the same😂
I guess I’m wired different because once I got the Chicagos , I got rid of black toes and my red dunks as well, I don’t like having similar looking shoes
Reason to buy the Palomino: they look good Reason to not buy the Palomino: they are selling for more than retail. Never buy a shoe for more than retail, it's not worth it.
Honestly the leather on Palomino's is maybe a lil bit better, but nothing significantly better, bc it's still bad for such a "hype" release and also suede is just nowhere near Dark Mocha. I got two pairs1xEA & 1x on drop) and bc I hoped they are from decent leather and suede I was badly disappointed when I got em in hand, bc it's far from being good leather, even worse suede.... So I send both pairs back, bc not buying shoes just to get my collection bigger and not a fan of Travis Scott, so that's not the case why I bought Dark Mocha bc I sell my TS Dark Mocha high I also got for retail, but kept GR Mocha bc I like Black Toe color blocking...Anyway the Palomino's imo are still not better quality then Dark Mocha especially when it comes to suede, leather wise is pretty much on the same lower level of quality and no where near good leather like reverse Laney's or those Craft AJ 1's, more like Lucky Green 2023 leather imo, so nooot good.
Like for the scrapes
THANK YOU
Hate the price increase, but overall these are super slept on and I think they're one of the better GRs to release this year from Jordan brand.
They did still sell out in big sizes so it’s unfair to say they are slept on but I do think they are a great shoe
@@JoshDominic it was crazy cuz I walked into a Nike store and they had them sitting at noon the day after release and I was able to cop my size 11
Thank you for drawing the comparisonwith the shadows, I completely agree. These will get a lot of wear.
Definitely wearable
I copped them on release day and wore them yesterday, been with my GF for 5 years now and it's the first time she told me that my Js were looking good haha
Mocha/Brown laces look dope in these.
I was able to triple 🆙 on these jawns👌🏾
Good video ✌🏾
I copped a pair also had the Mochas 1 but these more for fall and winter and the Mochas for spring and summer i love both
Good point
Extra laces should be standard, absolutely. Kinda bummed that the brown is so easily scratchable but I really like these and can't wait to get mine!!!
Easily fixable rub it with your finger firmly
@@zofrost8443I can attest to that! I was able to get rid of some scratches by doing that
I wouldn’t say it’s removable all the way, depending on the mark, just how you see in the video the marks stay after rubbing.
I got all those other brown Jordan 1 colorways and still copped the palomino too, just because the color blocking Is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I love you content man
The nubuck scratch thing isn’t true mostly… over time with a bit of brushing or just thumb the scratch will go away I’ve had them for a day and just brushed those scratches away! Other than that probably the best Jordan 1 of the year
NO way to fix the scratches?
I used a brush so that the nubuck has a nicer moving texture, and it dose remove the scraps/straches
Okay pause here at 1:55 to say something before i continue watching, espresso 1s would've been a very cool name for a sneaker like the coolest sneaker name in a while
Jordan brand should have consulted with me on the name of these 😅
I’d like an OG Low in this colourway
With a few more rubs the scrapes do disappear. I don’t care what nobody says! These are fire 🔥🔥…great review!
nice video, as always. looking forward seeing a review on the upcoming red cements 4`s :) greetings from vienna.
Hope I can get those
Fit same as Nike SB ?
These are spectacular. Doubled up on it. Great for a mature look, and for the office!
Will these be restocked?
All you have to do to remove scuffs is rub it firmly with your finger . I guess it’s self healing leather but it works try it
The mochas just have a much better color blocking, I passed on these due to the too much black, even though I like the brown color better. Great review!!!
Snkrs taking long to ship mines but these fie
Ahaha same man... still on the way 😅
Personally, I think the brown leather/nubuck on the shoe is great! Jordan 1's look better worn, and the brown leather will give the opportunity for the shoe to show some character and age better over time. Thanks for the review!
Yea I think over time the patina will look good
I don’t have any of these colour so I go for palomino. In india this pair not launch yet so I pay resale to buy this pair but I think it’s worth to pay resale for this pair.
Mine finally arrived today; love the shoe. Definitely a worthy compliment to the other brown Jordan 1s (mochas, Travis Scott’s etc)
These sold out instantly here in the US. There are only GS sizes available.
Not nubuck my g…
I’m pretty sure it’s an unfinished leather…cause there’s several nubuck pairs and none leave scratches like this….
But I but I assume the patina will build nicely…
Ps
Pretty sure mink oil will remove the scratches…
Link for any mink oil
@@Free.PaIestinethere’s some on Amazon
Having the TS1 made these an easy pass. I only need one brown J1, and it will be hard to beat the blocking on the TS.
Yea that was my point as well, it’s unnecessary if you have the others
Was looking forward to this review. Honestly this one of my favorite sneaker releases this year.
Got my pair yesterday and i love them, but they didn't bother with QC on my pair and the brown leather on the toe is all stretched and funky looking. I guess I'm returning them and hoping that the resale on big sizes goes down a little.
The nubuck is gonna get scratched pretty easy regardless
Just treat it with mink oil. Should get rid of the scratches and make the brown leather a bit darker
Technically its not a price increase, 65$ in 1985 (what the jordan 1 retailed for) is about 191$ today so they haven't increased the price in terms of value its just the number. this is because of inflation
Every year you are saying "these are the best Fall based jordan 1 ever" and I can't agree more. Those are getting continuously better and better😂
Im a fan of this color way but 190 for a gr was just a bit to much to push me to actually pull the trigger on these
Yea the prices are ridiculous
Then people should get the Vancetta Tan and Black Canvas 1s that came out last year.
One of the dopest Jordans to drop. Passed because I didn't wanna pay almost $200 again for an 80s shoe.
I guess you will never buy another Jordan sneaker again
@@JoshDominic Maybe. Just taking a break for now. I wont be suprised when Jordan 1s are $200 retail.
I put mink oil on mine. Raw leather should be treated to protect the leather from the elements. It also darkened the brown a bit, they look much better now IMO.
How often do you put mink oil on ur shoes? Every couple months?
I did the brown areas of the Palomino because they looked dry. That's why everyone is complaining about the leather showing scratches, it's because the leather is dry. Mink oil doesn't help coated leather by the way.
It's not a nubuck leather... it's slightly untreated leather (great quality). Which is prone to stains if not treated properly.

Thanks for the tip
There's actually a chocolate palomino horse, that's what the brown is based off of on the shoe.
Love them, hate the price increases
yea its a bit ridiculous
Still can’t get used to this “new” shape of the OG Retro Highs… they look weird on everybody . Dark Mochas all day for me
Yeah I’m not totally sold on the new shape either.
Oddly here w/ya... but in dark colors look better than light for me. Sadly my L&F look... weird on foot. Something about the outsole shape near the pinky toe. Polomino for some reason dont give me the same vibe even being the same shape. I gotta blame colors idfk
nailed the review, subscribed, good stuff man
Thank you
Missing the pod ❤️
Will be back next week
I think these will look phenomenal pretty beat, tbh
The scuff marks will go away. You just have to rub them more.
Damn Josh cooked his Travis 😩
I noticed that 2 😅
Just needs a cleaning
Love the name Expressos
Espresso 1s has a nice ring to it
thats cause its not real new buck! it all it takes is a new buck brush... must be new to this
These cool
You right sir must be extra Lace for this...

dude these sold out instantly, cant say on SNKRS because I copped at 10am but JDsports didn't sit
There’s still sizes on SNKRS right now

@@JoshDominic I guess it’s all in the hype, those dark mocha are using the same color scheme as the black toes…
Dark Mocha 2.0 Nothing more, nothing less. Why does Nike do this crap.
Reason to buy the Palomino: they look good
Reason to not buy the Palomino: they are selling for more than retail.
Never buy a shoe for more than retail, it's not worth it.
L TITLE , MOCHAS 2.0 🚀🚀🚀🚀
Should have called these the Espresso 1s
Now I’m feeling good about my decision to pass on these because I have the Patina.
chocolate palomino, look that up.
Omg that made me so sad for
You haha that sucks the marks stayed.
Buying Jordan 1s in 2023 is crazy
Nah it’s a classic shoe not a trendy piece

The only sneaker channel to do the coin scratch goated🫡🐐
The soles are white 😂
