very true some these nike shoes coming out is just terrible i am 70s baby i grew up on air jordans i rembember bay jordans and sky jordans lol love the olds school 80s shoes
@@Sage_TheAmericanPitBullTerrier And because they didn't match with his teammate's white/red shoes which was a breach to the uniformity of "uniform rule"!
For the mid-1980s, there wasn't a shoe like it back then. Eyeballs were looking at MJ's Nike's more than the All Star game when he checked in. I mean, prior to MJ's Air Jordan's, the best shoes at that time to wear were Dr. J's Converse All Stars. And MJ's shoes immediately put Dr. J's shoes to rest. That was the impact of those shoes IMHO. I bought a pair once I could afford a pair of Air Jordan's. People were looking at my shoes constantly. Even non-sports fans. There were no shoes like it at that time.
the mention of the wings twa pin and how it played into the design of the air jordan logo. as a kid in chicago, you had to have two twa wings on your sky jordan's to be official.
I watched Nike’s documentary on how they make the Jordan shoe and ALL of his previous shoes. My dream shoe is The Air Mag. I shed a tear every time I see a pair because Back To The Future is an invaluable part of my childhood and without it I feel I probably wouldn’t have had one because I was such a shy kid. It taught me how not to be afraid to stand out, that it’s ok to be different and to be true to yourself to, how to handle a bully(because I was being bullied at the time of the movie) and then he pulls out the shoes. All I could say was Holy Sh🤬t!!!!! And receiving a backhand slap in the mouth by my mom lmbo 🤣🤣🤣🤣. I’m a 70’s child stuck in the 80’s what can I say lol. Nike has always been committed to the Jordan brand and to the people and I’ve ALWAYS respected and admired that. What a great documentary. Loyalty pays off. Great video!!!! Best of luck to you, Jordan, Nike and everyone here 💋
I appreciate the added incite on these pairs and to think they could have been gone forever. One thing I wanted to add is since the number of available photos have been controlled in terms of what is available to the public.Contacting Getty Images could prove to be of great use to fill in any holes in terms of what was worn and for what game during those first few months.Great timeline without a doubt.
I bought the "Chicagos" when they first hit the market in 85 (although I never knew they were called "Chicagos" until watching this video. Also, I never saw the black toes on the market. Certainly not at Foot Locker (where I bought the "Chicagos") or anywhere else that I knew of, nor did I ever see a single person ever wear them (other than MJ).
This is an incredible video with the most inside insight on the shoe (I do love how your sample is dated 11/14/84, my 11th birthday). As one who has spent most of my youth (and my money) studying all things Jordan, my eye for detail on things like this seems to be the same as yours. My guess on the Air Ship he wore during the 84 preseason is that the medial side of the midsole has some visible EVA surrounded by the complete rubber midsole, just like we would see again in 87 on the first Delta Force. The midsoles are very similar. Not identical, but very similar. Great research. Enjoyed it.
As far as I heard and can tell was that Stern didn't like how the shoe was mostly black. Jordan came out with two pairs a year after that. White when the season starts then black for the playoffs Then when next season starts he drops a new white pair
I'm assuming Jordan called the white based sneakers "Chicagos" because he wore them with his home uniform (in Chicago). So did he only wear the banned sneakers on the road?
He only wore the actual banned shoes in the preseason...all games were NOT actually at home...that banned shoe was a temp shoe until Nike made him his AJ1's in Nov 84
thank you so much for exposing while the hypebeasts and fuccbois close their eyes on the truth, while keep talkin about "keepin it real" "truth" "trill" or whatever one dimensional values
hhmm. MJ doesnt have a signature shoe when the colorway of Banned was released. hes wearing the NIKE AIRSHIP when the NBA, BANNED the black red white colorway. its not the J1 that he used when the colorway was released.
Great job!!! Like it a lot! Hey Kris, here's the thing. I am from Taiwan and a lot of people here are crazy about basketball, NBA, Air Jordan...etc. This video is so great that I wanna try my best to translate into Chinese. Would you mind if I do that?
Thank you. Translate into Chinese? I guess that's fine. Sure. Sounds good. But please give me credit by using my Channelkris youtube link. And, if you can, would be nice to suggest they can follow me on Instagram @channelkris THANKS!
Well, they were still trying things out, concepts, and he wore them for other shoots (one with Patrick Ewing), but the NBA banned a pair of black and red Air Ships in the pre-season, so Nike had to reassess what they were doing…I think they put the "banned" aka Bred's on the back burner, until beginning of 85 when they came up with the "Banned" commercial idea…and they added the wings logo, so the earlier samples became obsolete in Nike's eyes…and remember, there weren't a lot of people who were insane over shoes back then like there are now….heck, people looked at me like I was crazy when I kept them in the mid 90's.
Because the NBA uniform code stated that all players wear must wear similarly colored shoes, and the Bulls were wearing mostly white shoes then, but MJ’s were just black and red, no white.
Almost every pro-athlete in the 80's and 90's took small amounts of something. I have no proof of anything, but the evidence is present for those who know the effects of steroids. You can see how up until the late 80's most NBA players were just athletic, but from 88/89 on many had significant physique changes. You can see how neck muscles and jaw muscles become more developed in steroid users. It is possible he didn't take, but it is likely he did take (small amounts).
The only time I wanted to learn about history 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I made an update to this video...its my most recent upload
Me too
LMFAO me too 😂
The only history i want to learn.

This is fantastic history. Great work sir!
He didn't even specify why they were banned. Boo!
Grim Reaper they were banned because it didn’t have enough white in the shoes. Was mostly black and red.

Yeah, similar to delta force…right. I think I had those…back in the day
Thanks, I just uploaded an update to this video, a little more info.
Super awesome shoe and historical knowledge behind it!!! Now for the appraisal lol $$$$$$$$!
Most underrated video about air jordan 1, it deserves more likes . Here’s one question, is “black toe” the first colorway designed by Peter Moore?
maybe...he presented mike with several options, but black toe was Peter Moore's favorite
As far as I heard and can tell was that Stern didn't like how the shoe was mostly black. Jordan came out with two pairs a year after that. White when the season starts then black for the playoffs Then when next season starts he drops a new white pair
He PE versions from the photo shoot only had AIR JORDAN before they incorporated the winged logo.
the quality on those blacktoe and black n red joints is such a reminder of how we overpay everyday lmao
Jordan is xeno of the basketball universe
Everyone else are bowing God's of destruction
Dope, dope history and information.
thanks!!
I wish history class would be like this man...
I wish
Glad you were interested

Where I can I find the model in the thumbnail? I really want them.
Subbed! great info i like how detailed it is and how you explain everything :) keep it up!
thanks!
Thanks!! I actually just uploaded an update to this video with more info!
I got a question.Why were the shoes banned?
Too much black and red (multicolored) only white shoes were accepted in the NBA at the time
Those seem like a home down payment worth
thank you so much for exposing while the hypebeasts and fuccbois close their eyes on the truth, while keep talkin about "keepin it real" "truth" "trill" or whatever one dimensional values
You're welcome...just posted an updated video with more info...
I have the banned “Nike Jordan’s 1” For basketball and public :)
Great video 👍👍
But what was his reasoning for banning them?
Not enough white (on the Bred CW)
Just uploaded an update video on why the shoes were banned.
Truth Seeker THE TRUTH OF BANNING IT BECAUSE IT IS AN UGLY SHITTY SHOES. FACT.

hhmm. MJ doesnt have a signature shoe when the colorway of Banned was released. hes wearing the NIKE AIRSHIP when the NBA, BANNED the black red white colorway. its not the J1 that he used when the colorway was released.

Why is it that the "black toe" shoe go banned.....then the" red toe " was alright....
lmao. Really.

+channelkris the photo shoot shoes just have the Air Jordan written out without the wings logo correct?
yeah, i think that's correct
+channelkris the Rare Air Jordan 1's have that. Very cool...
Yes, that's correct. I just uploaded another updated video with more info!

MADE IN KOREA!
릭에슐리 now made in china
best nike is made in korea .
Thanks for the reply
Well I'm still wearing them..
Why did they ban the shoes?
The shows did not have enough "white" color for the black and red air ships.
Just uploaded a video updating why they were banned.
Yea. I keep on with the video to discover why they banned it.
Temple Of The Dawg lol
Temple Of The Dawg because its not white shoes.
HISTORY 🤔
Why did the ban it
Because the NBA uniform code stated that all players wear must wear similarly colored shoes, and the Bulls were wearing mostly white shoes then, but MJ’s were just black and red, no white.
I still have mines
I just saw one yesterday
Jordan: too much black.. and not enough white..
Letterman: like the NBA..
I'm only scared to shoes that my mom slaps me with 😍
I came here to know WHY!!! they got banned!
The air ships got banned in black and red, the air jordon “banned” is a representation of the air ships just for culture
kofi babonee beacause the air ships weren’t team colors
I have the banned ones in black and red
Lil_chumchum _YT same
kris You Should Have A youtube Profile
Amazing Video!!!!! New Sub Here 👍🏼
Awesome. Thanks Mitchell
Why though
I got retro 1s
Did this nigga jus show a size 19 shoe 😂😂 0:29 ...
Checkmark shoes are so weird....
c0pyimitati0n Nike
Cause It Doesn't have enough white it that's Why
They banned It
Jordan looked like some regular school kid before taking steroids. (and this background music is quite annoying).
lol you confuse with Lebron James
how so? They all have taken small amounts of steroids. Some have taken more... Like Karl Malone and David Robinson for example.
you don't have proove for MJ
Almost every pro-athlete in the 80's and 90's took small amounts of something. I have no proof of anything, but the evidence is present for those who know the effects of steroids. You can see how up until the late 80's most NBA players were just athletic, but from 88/89 on many had significant physique changes.
