10 years ago, i turned 21. These shoes came out on my birthday. I wasn't in the best situation to have the funds to purchase them 10yrs later today, God is good. My finances are good to cop a pair
Definitely...take advantage on this release, because ain't no knowing when they finna retro again. Take for instance the Jordan 6 carmine,prices are up on them even with the major Q.C.!
Not “too easy” , easy as it should be. All that old school camping out and people hurting each other over shoes chaos needs to be over forever. This is actually the way it should have been all along.
Coming from someone who was a broke college student in that 2011-15+ snkr era I’m glad shoes are plentiful now. I can grab every shoe I wasn’t able to. We definitely in a good spot but the prices are getting crazy
Loved how easy these were to get. Went to my local footlocker at 1pm and they still had 3 pairs left in my size (Size 12). Easy cop. Didn’t have to pay reseller prices, didn’t need a raffle, didn’t have to wake up early, etc. This is the way it’s supposed to be🔥🔥🔥
Me being a teacher I might say wear them Monday and never wear them again til later in the year because I know after Christmas the whole school gonna have them but they can’t swag like me!!!!
You and I are in the same boat as far as wearing these.... I felt the same this morning, but I bought em. I'm gonna make myself wear these.... I was at Lenox.... 5 people at a time being let into Nike.... I'm 50 people back.... I got my 11.5, I'm gonna make myself wear this pair. Salute
Man I been grinding all year. No debt, no crazy bills. I decided to treat myself to these. And ima tell you what. Im glad I did. Won the Raffle, walked in, paid for em, walked out. Didnt even think twice.
I’m in the same boat, walked in thinking i was passing on these if I see em and ended up walking out with the bag 😂. They clean asl but that $240 retail price after tax hurt my soul lol
Yoooo this is so funny I fee the same way Rich! I was saying that to myself today as well. Few years ago I would've had to have them! Now, Idk maybe because I'm 40 now but I'm not hyped for those. I went in FL and seen them on the shelves, they had my size but I just walked out. Maybe the price have something to do with it as well and the PL being so soft on these.....idk. Jordan 11s I barely wear because they hurt my feet, so I good on these.
Question: Is it fatigue from seeing the same colorways being brought back or already having a huge collection? For me, I'm at a point where I'm thinking more about what I'll actually wear vs. just what I like.
@na_k yea, but some of us don't get the chance to wear our shoes. My situation for these re releases is just swapping 1 for the other. Sold my 2012 bred 11s(worn once), 2012 olive 9s(worn once), 2014 legend blue 11s, 2011-2012 bred 4s, 2018 bc3s and replaced them all with the newer versions. I gotta sell my 2016 cement 4s now. Gamma blue 11s been sold and might be buying them again next year....you gotta rotate sneakers because they go stale like bread
Everyone that was saying the 11’s was going to sit crazy. 11’s never sat and went to outlets since I was born in 98 lol. Now 11 lows that’s a different story
These was a must cop for me cause 11’s are my favorite. My brother had a hard time getting size 12 in NY so I guess it depends on where u at. Oh and I took the blue insert from my old ones and put it in the new joints lol
I knew you would buy them. I always laugh now when you say you are passing on shoes. "I don't wear the ones I got now. I still got my *2018* *2014* *2021* whatever year pair"...but it isn't just you. A lot of folks who say the same thing on youtube. Won't be the last time you're "ashamed" of yourself because you're gonna do it again!😉😂😂😂 BTW, a million pairs go a long way. That makes it easier for folks to get. And we're thankful. But another reason why these are available. THE PRICE. 230 on top of the price of J3s and other shoes...at some point folks gotta sit some out.
Mike, I get it. I wanted these back in the day, but I didn't even open an app and look today, lol. For me, getting older I just have a different priorities. Tend to ask myself, am I gonna cop knowing I probably won't rock em? I still got love for the game but it's different now.
Unfortunately, I totally forgot to confirm my win at Champs in time. So now I’m trying to find my size 13, but I forgot these thangs go for $230 + tax?!? Now I’m not sure if I really want them.. lol
My guy, 😂😂, I hit on the Snkrs shock drop, and cancelled the order. Then, I got early access on Finish Line, and went ahead and copped! 🤣😂 Swore I wasn't gone cop since I still have the 2014 pair. Same with the BC3's. 🤷🏿♂️
Mike Rich I'm 41 Yrs Old And I Understand Where You're Coming From.. But I Wear My Shoes.. 🤥 Nah, I Don't 😭 But That's Because We're Married Men And Have A Family So We Don't Go Out As Much Not Unless It's With Our Family.. But I Came To Realization.. To Wear Them Everywhere Even To The Grocery Store.. Fresh As Hell .. Because Just Like You Saw Your High School Friend.. You Just Never Know Who You Might Bump Into .. 🤷🏿♂️ So Now I Can Wear The Hell Outta My Lows 😁👍🏿 ..
As a OG collector, I’ve seen so many of my OG collecting friends switch up on the retros. They don’t like to admit it but what I see and know is that they all low key turned to hype beast. They don’t want no shoe unless it’s gonna have some resell value to it. The Colombias are fire they just might turn into my favorite 11 I got 3 pair on the way.
Mike, I did the same thing you’re doing. I contemplated for two days if I was going to buy a shoe that I wasn’t going to wear so I made the decision to leave them at Hibbett’s. 😂😂😂
Can we please reserve PTSD for real life issues. Having to jump through hoops to get a fucking pair of shoes is ridiculous to be comparing. That’s a slap in the face to all of the people who serve our country and come home with PTSD for real.
The pictures had me on the fence about copping but when I saw them in hand it was a go . Plus it’s basically a unc colorway to me & that’s my fav colorway besides the chi colors
Ten years ago when these came out i was 14 and i was hurt watching your vids cuz i didnt have a pair. Now watching this vid and i have my pair in hand, hits different
I’ma try to pick these up on a restock. Cause I didn’t fill out no raffles. This is another GR that was massed produced like crazy. So Stores & Websites are gonna be re-loading up on em. Also if Bots & resellers don’t get them all.
What’s good Mike. Nice meeting you today at Hibbett. I was the cat in front of you who had the size 14’s. Been a supporter/subscriber for a while now fam. Have a safe & blessed Holiday season. 🤜🏾🤛🏾🙏🏾
Naaaaaah dawg you making perfect sense! You can’t pick up and resell it back for what you got it for anymore so it’s either free returns or you really want the shoe to Lee with doubt
GOT DAMN MIKE, you sounded like me on a daily, debating back and forth if I want to keep a shoe or not 😂 like I never wanted these but mannn I kinda just want to cop just to cop smhh
The only thing I can say is meh. I got a pair in my boy size in the shock drop. Turns out that he was able to hit so I got stuck with the shoe. I purposely have not opened the box to not influence me in getting my own size lol. I really don't wear my other 11s in the OG sizes. To be real the only reason why I would top so I would have all the OG colorways.Tomorrow I'm gonna go to the outlet and return these for a Nike gift card and try to get some Nike tech instead lol. I feel what you're talking about Rich great shield, but I don't need them for my collection. Thanks for the visit.
I passed I still have the last retro looking good. Even though they have the high cut just not spending $230 because of that. I would’ve copped if I didn’t have the last retro looking
i wanted these when i first they were releasing. but as time went on this year, i convinced myself that i’m not paying $250 for these… now if these go on sale for out the door $180-190 then I’ll cop … maybe
I thought I was passing and ended up buying them myself. You can return them at Athlete's Foot, but it has to be within 10 days. It's built into us, it's hard to resist even when we tell ourselves we don't need em 😂
😂😂😂 I FEEL THE EXACT SAME WAY MANE! TALK MY SELF INTO THEM AT THE LAST MIN AT THE TIME OF THE SHOCK DROP!
Yeah!! Like do I really need these?? 🤣🤣
10 years ago, i turned 21. These shoes came out on my birthday. I wasn't in the best situation to have the funds to purchase them 10yrs later today, God is good. My finances are good to cop a pair
Same Homie…Salute
Mike Rich wilding riding around trying to talk himself out of em 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I do the same thing
Lmaooo they definitely a must cop but that price tag crazy
Definitely...take advantage on this release, because ain't no knowing when they finna retro again. Take for instance the Jordan 6 carmine,prices are up on them even with the major Q.C.!
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂 I think we all do the same thing

Lol I feel you on this....... I'm wearing mine on the sideline Tuesday for our 7th/8th grade bball game
I ain't gon lie I love 11s but they hella uncomfortable.
Bruh so uncomfortable, but aesthetically looks nice on feet lol
Now that I’m closer to 30, I’m starting to hate wearing all Jordan’s except 5 and 13
These was cold back in 96, they was cold in 14 and they cold now. I probably wont wear mine too much until Summer
2014 pair trash
You and I are in the same boat as far as wearing these.... I felt the same this morning, but I bought em. I'm gonna make myself wear these.... I was at Lenox.... 5 people at a time being let into Nike.... I'm 50 people back.... I got my 11.5, I'm gonna make myself wear this pair. Salute
Soon as you walked out i heard the bag hitting ya leg. I said this man capped😂😂😂😂 gotcha😭😭😂
That hoody with the Aqua 8's 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
We need a retro of that hoodie @mikerich
Yes please 🙏
Or the Grape 🍇 5's
Facts!
Man I been grinding all year. No debt, no crazy bills. I decided to treat myself to these. And ima tell you what. Im glad I did. Won the Raffle, walked in, paid for em, walked out. Didnt even think twice.
This actually confirms it for me on not copping this sneaker because everybody gone have them on.
mike watching everybody coming out and commentating while sayin he not gon get em is hilarious😂
I’m in the same boat, walked in thinking i was passing on these if I see em and ended up walking out with the bag 😂. They clean asl but that $240 retail price after tax hurt my soul lol
I'm passing, Rich we getting older, loosing sneaker love
Then why do it.
You already know when Saturday hit if a different story the only way it’s not to go to the mall
@@mario_118 idk, why impulse buy anything? Sometimes there’s no logic behind it and you just do it anyways cause why not lol
@@cheehee808_ yup when your in the moment you just say fuck it

Sneaker fatigue, we all go thru it. Thats how I felt about the black toe 14s. I didn't need them, I sold my 2014s after wearing them once
Question: Is it fatigue from seeing the same colorways being brought back or already having a huge collection?
For me, I'm at a point where I'm thinking more about what I'll actually wear vs. just what I like.

Everybody and they mama finna wear these on Christmas or new years lol
I already knew you was gone grab dem shawdy.. I tried not to get em & did the same thing 😂
I'm surprised that nobody ain't talking about the slight tint on the midsoles on the 2024 vs 2014 which is cocaine white
Mike, I did the same thing you’re doing. I contemplated for two days if I was going to buy a shoe that I wasn’t going to wear so I made the decision to leave them at Hibbett’s. 😂😂😂
That hoodie would look clean with them aqua 6’s
*8s
Or the grape 5’s
I didn’t get either but I might cause I never had this color in my collection so I’m see
"Y'all must got an extra body at home." 💀🤣🤣🤣
I’m hard on shoes ima have to let y’all have this one lol
Mike is CRASHING OUT! This is the definition of FOMO.
With a ton of pairs made, the QC was perfect on many I've seen,
11s is the most uncomfortable shoe ever but the Velvet Breds ain't bad
Yeah those Velvet Breds are nice in person and are comfortable 👍🏾
EASY PASS
Hard Cop!! 😂😂😂
@@AliFrankTheTank facts
They beautiful 😭😭😭😍😍
Yeah you an influencer my dawg. I was on the fence all day until I watched this video. Just copped my size 13 on shoe palace.😅
Nah nah nah you said you wasn’t getting em on multiple vids og lol. I’m glad you came around my g 😂
I didn’t think about these at all I didn’t think I would wear them.
Dope cop bru 👍🏽
For some reason, that 230 price point didn't sit right with me even tho i paid same for the gratitudes and only worn once
I feel you on that patent leather restriction your toe movement. I’m a TTS 12, but now go sz 13 on them 11’s.
Can we please reserve PTSD for real life issues. Having to jump through hoops to get a fucking pair of shoes is ridiculous to be comparing. That’s a slap in the face to all of the people who serve our country and come home with PTSD for real.
Ohhhh brotherrrrr there’s always that 1 person with their misplaced outrage. Take it elsewhere + those people know what they signed up for
my guy went in store and folded quick 😂😂😂😂😂😂💯💯💯💯
🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂 thumbnail got me 💀 the real sneakerhead came outta you! It happens!
IT DEFINITELY FELT LIKE A EASY COP
Got mine agree not that comfortable wearing all day but still fire and my favorite Jordan period bred 11 Columbia 2nd
Box long pause😂😂😂 dude walking by😂😂😂😂
Them joints waaaaaaaaaaaay cleaner in person too.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
My 2014 still in the box never put on feet , not excited about this one to 🤷

Almost all sizes sold out in the 313 only 9-9.5 sizes available
Mike like that hoodie
11s over everything I doubled up and still got my 2014
The pictures had me on the fence about copping but when I saw them in hand it was a go . Plus it’s basically a unc colorway to me & that’s my fav colorway besides the chi colors
Ten years ago when these came out i was 14 and i was hurt watching your vids cuz i didnt have a pair. Now watching this vid and i have my pair in hand, hits different
Pulled up to the mall at 12 pm and grabbed them no problem. Feel good af 😂
I haven't worn the gratitude 11s yet.
I’ma try to pick these up on a restock. Cause I didn’t fill out no raffles. This is another GR that was massed produced like crazy. So Stores & Websites are gonna be re-loading up on em. Also if Bots & resellers don’t get them all.
I had the same story when I was outside for the gamma 11’s
U right abot those 11 its something about time i cant move my toes in them myself.
Appreciate the video,Mike.
Ol prom looking-ahh 11s. 😂
Mike 😆 is hilarious 😂 I don't wear 11s that much either lol 😭😆
How do I get a guarantee pair of Jordan 5 Black Metallic reimagined??
dont fight the urge unc lol just buy em
18:24 I thought Mike would have to pull the extended mag out 😂
It was definitely close by lol
@@mikerich2323As it should be lmaooooo cause growing up if somebody tells you “let me get those off you” it is not a friendly suggestion 😂😂😂😂
@@ShadowOVOXO no cap 😂😂😂😂
These actually look really clean. I wasn't going to get them but i checked them out in person and I ended up getting them. I'm happy with them.
I thought about skipping these and getting the blueberry 12s. I never had a pair of 12s I had some 11s before. Good vid mike!!!!
What’s good Mike. Nice meeting you today at Hibbett. I was the cat in front of you who had the size 14’s. Been a supporter/subscriber for a while now fam. Have a safe & blessed Holiday season. 🤜🏾🤛🏾🙏🏾
Naaaaaah dawg you making perfect sense! You can’t pick up and resell it back for what you got it for anymore so it’s either free returns or you really want the shoe to Lee with doubt
Definitely the sneakerhead eye lol!
GOT DAMN MIKE, you sounded like me on a daily, debating back and forth if I want to keep a shoe or not 😂 like I never wanted these but mannn I kinda just want to cop just to cop smhh
Rich- instead of saying you’re not copping in the future, just say I’m not sure if I’ll do it lol…we all knew you were getting these.
They prolly going back!
Love ❤️ the video Mike!!!! 😂😂😂😂it was funny how you tried to talk yourself out of buying them….
I passed i rather get those metallic reimagined 5s comin out .. Im being selective no more impulse buys
The only thing I can say is meh. I got a pair in my boy size in the shock drop. Turns out that he was able to hit so I got stuck with the shoe. I purposely have not opened the box to not influence me in getting my own size lol. I really don't wear my other 11s in the OG sizes.

Man these colombias 11s 🥶🥶🥶 clean asf!!!
It’s all good rich, it hit different when they up, out the box, and in the sunlight! Cleansed in my humble opinion!!!
If I'm not mistaken it was over a million pairs produced that's a lot of W's
That hoodie is 🔥 need that asap!!!!
I passed I still have the last retro looking good. Even though they have the high cut just not spending $230 because of that. I would’ve copped if I didn’t have the last retro looking
Scared me when he did the bow 😂😂😂😂😂 thought somebody was shooting 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
i wanted these when i first they were releasing. but as time went on this year, i convinced myself that i’m not paying $250 for these… now if these go on sale for out the door $180-190 then I’ll cop … maybe
Copped mine at the Stone Mountain athletes foot around 3pm!!!
I thought I was passing and ended up buying them myself. You can return them at Athlete's Foot, but it has to be within 10 days. It's built into us, it's hard to resist even when we tell ourselves we don't need em 😂
Next year, it's been 10 years for me part of "Rich Nation".
This is how I felt this morning was gonna pass until I saw em sell out that fomo hit an hr later, def my top 3 11s colorways
11’s gotta be the most uncomfortable J out of all the retro’s bro! They look so 🔥 tho!!!
I tried to score at the mall big sizes weren't going to be in till 5pm
I’m on the same boat if ima pay $260 after tax for a shoe I might as well spend another $50 to $100 and get something I really want
I missed on these last release...i had to get em fr
