I agree with this whole video 1000000%. What cracks me up, as someone who has both 2006 and 2012 pairs it was WILD to see people compare the 2024 as if it were inferior😂. I absolutely HATED the quality of the 06 and 2012 pairs and begged Nike for an accurate retro. Thank you Jordan/Nike for doing the True OG military 4 justice! They are BEAUTIFUL
I like the quality of the shoes, I’m glad I got a double up. The resellers are going to jack the prices up in the future. I completely agree with your opinion on the subject.
Your right , i said the same thing. I got my pair and they was A1. Leather was plush. No QC issues . They tried to make everybody not buy so they could get as many pairs as they can sit on em and up the price in the future. I stopped following alot of these influencers when i got my first pair. I knew they was lying.
The 1 million drop probably includes kids and toddler sizes. I'm glad i got these. They're definitely a beautiful shoe. I had the original ones when i was 18 back in 89 and these are the closest to the OG of all the military blues that dropped since the OG.
It also includes…well…the rest of the entire planet. All the numbers seem to be from an US perspective, but the EU has SNKRS, Asia has SNKRS, every region has tons of Footlockers, JDs and boutiques…1.000.000 suddenly isn’t that big of a number (it felt somewhat similar to the Concord and Bred 11s, also rumored to be a million plus pairs)
As an old head (47), I'm disappointed in the shoe for so many reasons. 1. There are at least 3 different shades of blue (back tabs, midsole, eyelets) 2. The blue-ish or gray tint on the uppere 3. Gray wings seem off Whether or not the color of blue is close to the ogs is up for debate, but at this point, they could have called them reimagined I don't care about resell prices, that doesn't change my opinion at all. Just my .02 cents
You’re exactly right. They’re gonna be fine if yiu just want to wear them and not resale. As crazy as the number were.. it’s yet another big L that SNKRS handed me on every drop and every one of my friends hit. Fn crazy. For me.. it’s just been another big W for stickX sellers. Thanks Jordan brand.
I expected quality issues so I bought multiple pairs to swap them out. I didn’t have issues with a few pairs. My main issue is that the shoe is 215 and really no difference from when they were 185 - if that make sense. There will be a lot of bad pairs in the outlets.
Proof to your point being, these people will complain about the materials on these Military blue 4's then turn right around and pay crazy resell prices of $600 or more for a Travis Scott sneaker with a velcro strap. There's the proof you need to know RUclipsrs have no taste, just all about the hype.
I got the pure money 4s and the leather on them is buttery soft. But I don't consider the military blues to have bad leather. It's just sturdier leather. I think it has to do with the other materials like the wing is leather on the pure money's. So it works better. The plastic wing on militarys needs the leather to be stiff I believe. They know what they doing.
"Got'em" on the app over the weekend...at the house yesterday and no quality issues at all...i've never resold any shoes and just like them for my own personal wear...love the look of these on feet! (missed out on the bred reim :/ )
Happy with my pair. The QC wasn't perfect, but certainly nothing to get bent out of shape about. Found a few spots where they were sitting in my area the day after release and seriously thought about doubling up because you never know when they'll release again, but decided not to so that someone else would have a shot at em.
I coulda had as many pairs as wanted …. So you can’t forget the secret sauce during every video of every influencer with over 20,000 subscribers they they would make sure they put in there yeah $60 a month for the premium and you get a guaranteed pair of military blue Ford for retail a guaranteed pair for retail. Why would I need to pay $60 a month to get a guaranteed pair for retail.
I got the sb 4 so I have a few 4's now the military blue unless you going to wear outrank brand or jordan brand it is difficult to drop fits but I have watched the content creators flip and people follow when the stock numbers was provided but I never cared about that I just cop what I like and thats it a lot of times if I cop a release I will sit on the shoe for a few months then bring it out so everyone isn't wearing the same shoe as me
I got 4 pairs (two td) for the whole fam. The kids pairs are the only pairs that aren’t fucked up. Tons of issues all over my wife and I’s from suede ripple issues, scuffs, bad leather in multiple spots. I’ve never sent a pair back for minor issues, but holy hell.
I was so happy with them I doubled up. Best retro in a loooooooong time. The channels who I trust liked them as well. Sure, the materials could be a bit better. But it's definitely ok and I had waaaaaay worse on some dunks. But some "influencers" were complaining about the color of the upper not being white (shape and color are SPOT on!), and that they creased. I mean, it's a smooth thicker leather? What the hell did you expect when you'd wear them? 🤷🏻♂️ I liked your comments in the video and therefore alone I subscribed to your channel. You're 100% right. People don't think for themselves anymore.
Them “sneaker heads” real deal not real sneaker heads. They hype beast & try to cover it up by downplaying shoes that was popping back in the day. These 10+year old OG Js , etc ima always cop cause my parents didn’t wanna buy em in high school so I can now, I got real love for the shoes here 💯 1,000,000 pairs or not I’m copping what I grew up liking
I was expecting a lil better quality but I coped regardless I’ve been waiting on these since 2012. Then space jam 11 Lows and oxidized green 4’s next to cop
I was able to cop them from the snkrs app. They are nice but mine has a quit a lot of defects, the grey leather part for example is not the same colour on the two shoes :/ Still like them 4sure.
I got 3 pair I kept the best pair and the other 2 pairs were bad the tag on the back had glue and the glue on the soles was bad as well, under the black light it looked rushed I like the shoes but they should've took their time with this
This new generation of sneaker heads cares more about “hype and resale” then the actual models/colorways they are buying . We all saw what happened with the black cats nobody wanted them untill that resale got to 800$+ now they “timeless classis”
The high number of people who said they weren't going after these because "everybody gonna have them" was hilarious. I couldn't imagine being in that mindset. I hope they stay that way. It'll make it easier for me to cop the OGs.
You got to be honest tho bro if you seen that 2012 pair you know these are 2 totally different shoes, this is royal blue, 2012 pair(the ones people fell in love with) is way lighter, Nike are purposely making these shoes totally different it’s greed
Right they’re expecting Salvatore Ferragamo leather on a $200 sneaker
Even they outsource materials from China

I agree with you 100%, most of them did it for the views. These are fire, even better in person! Great video man!

The smear campaign makes me love them even more😂😂 both my pairs came out fresh to death.

Facts I noticed the different tones of blue , midsole is super dark and tabs are similar to 2012s

They’re perfect 💯 I put 89 pair up on my channel , masterpiece.

This is definitely my favorite shoe o have the 2012 pair.
Me and my 2 2024 pairs are watching this video and laughing.
The best video that exists about this shoe. Thank you.
Yeah man. I with you. Happy to hear your thoughts on this.
I got the sb 4 so I have a few 4's now the military blue unless you going to wear outrank brand or jordan brand it is difficult to drop fits but I have watched the content creators flip and people follow when the stock numbers was provided but I never cared about that I just cop what I like and thats it a lot of times if I cop a release I will sit on the shoe for a few months then bring it out so everyone isn't wearing the same shoe as me
They hard gone grab some denim cargo short and do my thang
I got 4 pairs (two td) for the whole fam.
The kids pairs are the only pairs that aren’t fucked up.
Tons of issues all over my wife and I’s from suede ripple issues, scuffs, bad leather in multiple spots. I’ve never sent a pair back for minor issues, but holy hell.
Not many real shoe heads anymore! Resellers are the influencers. Buy what you like !

You must be talking about Jumperman Kris😂….i quit following him for this exact reason

Couldn’t agree more with you. Subbed.
I love my pair….. swapped out the laces….. these are fire🔥🔥🔥🔥 in my top 10 that i own
I appreciate your words brother💪🏼
I was expecting a lil better quality but I coped regardless I’ve been waiting on these since 2012. Then space jam 11 Lows and oxidized green 4’s next to cop
Mines barely creased . They feel comfy also
nike should put these on the custom shoe list. many would pay 250 to 280 just for better leather
I was able to cop them from the snkrs app. They are nice but mine has a quit a lot of defects, the grey leather part for example is not the same colour on the two shoes :/ Still like them 4sure.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🏆
The vid I been looking for
I got mine on snipes at 2:30pm after release they had a full size run
I got 3 pair I kept the best pair and the other 2 pairs were bad the tag on the back had glue and the glue on the soles was bad as well, under the black light it looked rushed I like the shoes but they should've took their time with this

He's only making $20 if he sells at $250... $215 + tax= $230
Some people dont have tax, you do realize that dont you?
@@eagle___empire3175still chump change bub
My pair is flawless
You got to be honest tho bro if you seen that 2012 pair you know these are 2 totally different shoes, this is royal blue, 2012 pair(the ones people fell in love with) is way lighter, Nike are purposely making these shoes totally different it’s greed
Nice Rental🎉
That blue is definitely darker that the one that released
I thought the blue was lighter
I like the blue in the video
These ones are not real🤷🏾♂️ the ones i have are no where near that dark
Lighting makes a difference.
Because they all review fake pairs that’s why
If you’re going to throw out stock numbers please do your homework and research.
dont let anyone yuck your yum.
Jordans played out 🤷🏾♂️ old head youtubers wish they werent cause they cldnt buy them when they were kids lol its over
