Jordan 1 black toes are my favorites Jordan's next to the Concord 11's. I have the 2013 black toes deadstock and I wear my 2016 ones all the time. The softer leather does make a difference in wearability especially if you wear them all day. Great video and review!👍
Yeah, JWDanklefs is currently doing a custom black tongue Jordan 1 Black Toe PE for me, which will feature the "Nike" Tongue Tag. I'll keep you posted.
Yo Mo did the OGs in 1985 have black tongue? Ive seen some pics where they didnt but maybe Mike had a PE that did. I cant find a definitive answer anywhere. Always love your reviews man. Congrats on the TR 23s btw
+Julian Mosley thanks man. As far as I know, MJ was the only one wearing the black tongues. All other retail pairs have had the white tongue unless it was customized (which I have seen someone do before. Check my previous video on my thoughts on the 2016 Black Toe 1s.
Well, the 2013 says "high" on the box and in comparison to the 2016 it's about a half inch shorter. In fact, the 2016 is the tallest among all the other iterations. Even the OG from 1985. If you compare the 2016 to everything else, it makes the others look like mids. Even the retro 85 High OGs are shorter than the 2016. Check out my other videos on the AJ 1. I use a ruller in one.
I had 2013 pair but sold them. The shape and stiffness of the leather to me was pretty bad. My opinion, but to me none of the 2013 1s can even compare to the remastered series.
Remastered pairs have been improving. They're stepping in the right direction. Price could be lower on everything across the board though. Hopefully that improves.
i bought the 2016s because in the back of mind i though the 2013s had a red-orangish "nike air" or jumpman on top of the tongue. pulled it out and was surprised.. i was like, "what the hell? i've bought the same shoes again??" then i note the small differences as noted in this vid except the toe box shape. i could of saved some money but screw it.. i'll go ahead and wear the 2013s, plus its my bd today, might as well.
thanks man. will you be comparing the black and white 9s as well?.. i have the 2002 or 2004s? brand new.. but im wondering how do these compare. the previous version was an easy pass.
I am curious about them but the 31 and the 11 will take priority. There are a couple shoes like the Oxidized Green 14 and these 9s I have OGs of that I didn't do a comparison for because of price or just wasn't interested. I may down the line get them but we'll see.
Good comparison: was blessed to have a pair reserved for me by Nike via the Nike+ app. What do you think about the top 3 retro 1's coming out on the 28th. Peace.
Great video bro!! Keep representing that 209! I remember I saw u at Arden for the BANNED release , hope one day we can link up/collab ! I also compared these to chicago quality on my video as well
+Omar najeeb exactly. There was definitely a shorter windows to a known release date there. Couldn't use rewards on a quickstrike release. Could've saved another $15.

I already know this gonna be the best detailed and comparison video compared to any other video on RUclips.
+James Tran thank you bro! ✊
Ya I wanted the Black tongue ones but I guess people can do customs
+Josean Berdecia true. I'm sure someone down the line will do it to these.

Sounds good!
got lucky on footlocker this morning!! just waiting for them to come in!
Nice work! I got a pair of the '13 when they restocked at the Outlets a couple years ago-B grade so I was glad I was able to pick up these '16
+kimolv definitely. Happy with the '16?
MJO23DAN oh yeah! Got 2 pairs 😂
Nice! The 1s have been very good so far in materials & style. I don't blame you going after 2 pairs! Enjoy.
Your comparisons are the best. So detailed with things i would never pick out. 👍
+bentleyyy415 thank you. Appreciate the support! 👍
Thanks to Nike for shipping my size 9 box but put size 8.5 shoes in there.
Fieus Design lol sue them.
Fieus Design lol sue them.

Amazing how many small but many differences there are. Really wished for a black tongue on the '16 but what you gonna do.
+AIR305 black tongue would've been dope. Maybe in another 3 years haha
Sick comparison... always look forward to these videos 👌🏽
+Rodrigo Nino thank you!
always enjoy your comparison videos! I woke up late this am and got lucky at my local Footlocker. first come first serve. got em!!
+mike wulliman nice man. Glad it worked out!
Footlocker coming in clutch ! Swooped 2 pairs
You always have great content. Enjoy seeing your comparison AJ videos because they're educational and edited very well! 👍🏼
+James8107 thank you very much!
you forgot about the Height. the 2013 is a lowkey mid vs the 2016

I have 2 sz 10s if you are looking to double up, so you can have 1 to rock and 1 to stock
Had an opportunity to cop two pairs but I passed. Thanks though.

Nice! Did u double up on them?
+Lee Samson just 1 pair

very dope review. thank you!!

Not into the Top 3. The 3 colorways in that shoe can hold a candle on their own it didn't need to be mish mashed into a single pair. I'll be passing.
MJO23DAN cool bro and thanks for your insight. Peace.
Yes
Which ones are better chichago or black toe I need to know before I cop
Cant go wrong with either. Personally, i prefer black toes
i think the 2016 fit bigger than the 2013
Good shit as always
How does anyone get any shoes on the Nike app when they sell out before the Raffle even begins ???
+Hilario Aguirre that happened?
MJO23DAN yes
very well informative great video
Great video bro!! Keep representing that 209! I remember I saw u at Arden for the BANNED release , hope one day we can link up/collab ! I also compared these to chicago quality on my video as well
+Sneaker Saints cool. I'll check it out.
what is quick strike
+Omar najeeb exactly. There was definitely a shorter windows to a known release date there. Couldn't use rewards on a quickstrike release. Could've saved another $15.
