  • get rid of the shoes

  • ill say B shits been going on since '95

  • the only racist thing I'm ever gonna say on youtube about blacks is that it's beyond retarded to kill somebody for their shoes, like who the fuck deos that besides ghetto black people ? Kill somebody for shoes ? Most retarded reason to kill someone in the history of humanity. If white americans do that too ok I'm wrong and take it back but I don't think it's like that, however sure whites do plenty retarded stuff too but killing another human cause you want his stupid retarded bascketball shoes

  • you guys are forgetting the hype created by shoe websites, celebs, etc. the "sneaker" game is dieing and its because of resellers who DO get them and sell them for 200%+. also a JB needs to stop making limited quanities of the shoe. Watch out for some more crimes during the galaxy foamposite release

  • Even if he speaks to the people, they'll still do stupid shit. Stop blaming Jordan. All the Jordan brand has to do, is not make some Jordans super limited. That's it. That's the only reason why it happened.

  • @sergio71995 Hey not all of us are that dumb. Some of us are actually raised educated.

  • holy card i got the same shoes for christmas

  • Jordan sitting in his mansion like cmon fuckers buy my shoes 2 cents to make now fight for them like cmon i dnt even know why ppl like them so much ok 11s are sexy but too much Lol omg cant believe this man this generation of teens are so stupid i swear

  • never had a pair of jordans, but now that im older and can afford em i dont think i want em anymore

  • If the shoes are made from leather,hundred dollar bills and gold.... Maybe

  • i think the prices of the shoes should go down then maybe the killings and robberies should go down

  • See that's problem a pair of sneakers shouldn't mean more to them than anything, black people should stop acting that way

  • Micheal Jordan doesnt have anything to do with jordans... and those shoesonly come out every 10-11 years...

  • @12345heyden He has to endorse it for his name to be on them or to even be associated with it.

  • new subcriber

  • You look high as hell in the thumbnail lol

  • both

    

  • jorden ant got no since, people ant got no since he should make a nuff shoes and people should check them self, I see if he signd 30 shoes and had have some like a 250 pair store. people they are just shoes, not a living thing.

  • i was at the store when they came

  • No! If Jordan stops making the products then us collectors will get robbed 10xmore then now. Cuz if there are no more coming out then they will steel them. And if they put more than 30 in a store then the value will drop so the best thing is for Jordan to have his buyers chill the fuck out!

  • SOME1 WOULD KIILL 4 THE PIC ON THE GREEN SCREEN !

  • LOL this western world is way too materialistic

  • They ugly anyway.Over some Fuckin shoes that's bullshit.

  • The person should of bought the 11 Retro Air Jordans back in 1998 when they came out like i did. I was wearing those things to school in 1998. 

  • @aaaaaagg2a

    Actually i mean i got the Air Jordan's 12 in 1998 when they were new. But you know what i mean. They should of bought the shoes when they originally came out. But then again most of these guys buying the shoes now were probably like 2 years old in 1998.

  • Niggaz need to get a fuckin job and earn Jordans like a real fuckin human, fuck sakes

  • I don't see what's all the hoopla about these shoes. Don't they cost about $200 now? Insted of paying that much money on a pair of shoes that's gonna get old & dirty, use it for something better. Not only does Jordan need to talk to the community, but the community needs to stop acting so idiotic over one item. Just don't make no damn sense.

  • I AGREE!! the best solution is too put more of the shoes OUT. make em less exclusive. but not to the pt that it majorly effects his profit.

  • Who cares? They are from detroit. If they were from H town I would care.

  • Comment removed

  • so true

  • Plus being from Detroit this ain't nothing new. Do you remember the patent leather Adidas top 10's & Nanny Goat coats in the early 80's??? Shot, stabbed, you name it.

  • Though tragic the killing over anyone over a pair of friggin shoes is appalling, but MJ has no responsibility here. That's like Chevy taking the blame for thieves stealing Suburban's!!!!

  • Outside of basketball Jordan is a business man. He's all about the money. Putting a limited supply of Jordans in high demand urban areas, & marking them up at a high price makes them exclusive.

    He and Nike are not going to change the method of selling a multi-million dollar product thats worked for close to 30 years, because people are getting robbed for them.

  • is just a damn shoes i dont get it now i like the girl jordan but i wouldnt kill people for it are stay online.

  • jordan needs to talk to these goofy people who would shoot somebody over a pair of shoes? i would save my money and buy my own this goofy ass person shot the dude....really?

  • I think people just need to learn to do better. People are acting like this sneaker will never come back out its the same shoe different colorway Just wish people especially black people weren't such dummies

  • Makes you wonder what the hell people would do to each other if there were Michael Jordan underpants. "Dude take his pants off! Grab his Jordans!"

  • I'm safe and will liikely stay that way....I am not paying that much for something I'm going to be walking on UNLESS it's new flooring!

    

  • He could come off some of his money, sell them cheaper and like you said, produce more. Some people have NO MORALS!!!!!

  • Really over shoes im still saving up 4 my own pair lol!!!

  • That's ridiculous over a pair of Jordans. 

  • For one, killing someone over a frickin pair of shoes is so 1990's. I thought, we as people of all color, matured over shit like this. Fighting and killing someone over a pair of shoes is just plan ignorant. I remember back in the 90's if you had certain name brand shoes, jackets, hats and you walked around in urban areas, you either got it jacked from you or even killed. It just disappoints me that society hasn't grown up on stuff like this. ITA with you Craft!! 100%!!

  • I never been a fan of Jordans. They cost too darn much, esp now when decent jobs are hard to find. But Jordan do not have to do anything. Granted it be nice if he did but we all know it be a waste of time. I think putting out more jordan products might work but I don't see nobody killing over a pair of Hanes. Most of ppl who stealing and killing are doing it cuz its free to them and they want to the status. So again, jordan is not the blame but it would be nice if he was able to give his input..

  • I think Jordan go out and talk to the community and most important I think he should put 500 pair of each size im every store and i bet he will still sell out he just need to do something about it man cause people act crazy over these shoes and the sad thing about it is it's going to happen again this year cause the Columbia 11's coming shoe is inspired by the UNC Color way.

  • 0:25 XD very clever

  • why does jordan have to do anything?. thats like someone who eats alot of pizza and dies because of a heart attack or something. why would it be the pizza places fault?. people in these types of hoods need to learn how to shut their traps and stop flaunting their pricey shoes,rims,jewelry or move to a "safer" neighborhood.

  • @BLOOD1MONEY thats crazy, to try and blame it on the people with the shoes is absurd. I could walk down my street in a suit made of 100's and I know people wouldn't try to take it. The person who robs is responsible for the robbing and its no one else's fault.

  • @polyrhythmm my point exactly people do stupid things then want to point fingers. if i steal a cellphone or a ps3 why would Sony or T-Mobile or which ever company have to do anything? unless i got robbed or mugged at their store they arent the ones to blame.

  • @BLOOD1MONEY It's not about blaming Michael Jordan. It's about asking him to make one little commercial telling the idiots to cool the shit! Oh, but he might not make any money off of that.

  • @mesquitemagic see at the end of the day mike ends up rolling in money while people just hand it to em just to end up dead. one person isnt gonna change a neighborhood there's always one asshole that wont listen or agree.

  • True dat

  • I enjoy your insight on alot of things....good viewpoint on this matter....

  • michael jordan has nothing to do with the jordan brand anymore. its all Nike

  • Or its could cause a riot

  • I lived in Detroit for 14 years of my life and I'm only 16 now. I must say that I am disappointed with the way people are over jordans, it makes me ashamed sometimes. Had me shaking my head for the first time in years -_-

  • Jordan should put more of his products out, and if he's too much of a damn woose to go out and speak to the public, he should at least send a personal message out through television or the internet. Media is a big part of our everyday lives, I'd say it's pretty easy to speak your mind and get your word out anytime you want to.

  • I don't think the blame falls completely on Jordan. Some of the blame should be directed towards parents and the media also. For parents, like Kevin said, if you cared about your children as much as the shoes maybe they would be more obedient. As for the media, rap mostly, they put images into peoples heads that if you have the jewelry, the clothes, shoes, money or whatever, you're the shit you made it in life. Fuck education and hard work, it's all about the money and the bitches.

  • I think Jordan needs to do both. Detroit is a bad fucking place but its fucking stupid to want to shoot someone over a pair of shoes. fucking stupid. People just don't have common sense these days. how fucking sad.

  • Jordan should do both!

  • Did he die??

  • Yea that's how they do it detroit. Just plain low down dirty motha fuckas.

  • the shoes aren't even that great looking, and even if they were still not worth killing people for

  • I could make a race joke here, but I don't run track any more.

  • sometimes my race dissapoints me.....

  • @killier7ikr the day jordans fall off ill cry tears of joy

  • @12nory13  lol

  • @killier7 humans do dissapoint me sometimes

  • @killier7 Sadly I have to agree

  • @killier7 lmfao SOMETIMES???

  • @killier7 Unfortunately, I wouldn't that to change anytime soon.

  • @killier7 There's a stereotype, but instead of not following it...people choose to do exactly what people expect of them...so sad.

  • @killier7 our race dissapoints me everytime i see a wacka flocka video

  • @killier7 sometimes BLACK people gotta eat.. i think you shouldn't be disappointed cuz we overcame LOT of stuff..

    i dont know about you but i'm 1 trillion percent PROUD to be black

  • @Ontibadboy ayo, im not taking anything away from my pll, cuz id b a hypocret i know we been through some though shit, butv u have to admit, we do some stupid shit somestimes, im proud to be black to, and this is comining from a 12 year old

  • @Ontibadboy Yes your ethnicity/race has overcome a lot of stuff but this still does not excuse actions of such magnitude. What you're basically admitting to is that the blacks have taken 1000 steps forward, but in reality the amount of criminals that are black have taken your ethnicity 10000 steps back. The logic just isn't there for you to justify it by these means.

  • @BeanerIsland - There's a lot of criminals in general for all ethnicities in the US. There are far more white criminals in the US per capita than in European countries. The US is just a violent country in general. Still, as a black person this kind of shit upsets me too. This is the kind of thing that feeds stereotypes of black people acting like animals over stupid crap like some goddamn sneakers.

  • @killier7 i bet 95% of the people that thumbs'd this up are white trash rednecks :P

  • yeah people crazzy.

  • What can MJ do? They aren't his shoes, he barely even represents the company anymore...

  • @lilpro131 He's still making profit of it, probably even more now, which is still just as bad, IMO

  • @lilpro131 he pretty much comes up with the entire design for them and gets a massive portion of the profit off of them

  • @ 2:11 its done on purpose duh..they want them to fight over the shoes and kill each other. Its a shame black people fall for it.

  • I think certain black people need to stop acting like nigs. That's what needs to happen.

    I mean really, fighting over clothes... Where are we, 3rd World Africa? Shit is embarrassing.

    Way to perpetuate stereo-types and give ammo to ignorant racists. Decent, normal black people have to suffer for the transgressions and idiocies of the buffoons within these communities.

    What next, killing someone over the last piece of chicken at KFC?

    Seriously, these knuckle-draggers make it too easy...

  • @mrusername I'm pretty sure that's already happened.

  • I wish parents would should show up to the PTA like the Nike stores and the malls.

  • Jordan an Nike should take all the shoes off the market an give them to people in the military. Military gets shoes for their families or their own pair an if someone is dumb enough to run up on a marine for some shoes they end up six feet under. Win/Win.

  • Yo Kev, your channel is wack now. All you do is review worldstarhiphop videos now. What happened to the craftkevin that we all fell for?

  • You don't even have the picture of the actual concords that were crazed over. This video is stupid.

  • @yungflyandflashy12 Then why did you watch it?

  • This is completely retarded. 

  • @97nachotv I mean the story, I love CraftNation!

  • yesterday this guy threatened my life becuz i was talking 2 his girl, thought 2 myself i guess its not worth dieing over a hoe. End.

    the way people are surprises me.

  • smmfh this prove that humanity in itself is still going down the drain...i can't believe the people on this earth are still killing each other over worthless, material things. i'm not surprised it was in detroit. what a way to start up a new year and your right, Michael Jordan should definitely do something about it because it is his product...it's almost as if his sneakers are physical drugs...designer drugs (Skyzoo)

  • I'm sure someone could try to sue MJ for something like this. These days you can sue anyone for anything. I heard a guy who attempted house burglary sued the home owner because he got injured in the process. Anyways I would never buy those shoes. :)

  • Thats the kind of shit a "Nigger" would do kill you for the shit you worked hard to get. Animals like that need to be put down like for real tho niggas stillin shoes in 2012 thats so 1997

  • bro Kev, it's not on Jordan. It's the parental upbringing. I'm old school and I can remember back in 75 it was jingle boots. a certain popular gang wore them and the wannabe had to have them wanting to imitate this gang. so many kids got jacked up over them things. then came marx b, nannygoats, troop jackets,blacktops, 555 fat goose and yaes( cartier). so see, Jordan is innocent. peace bro.

  • Also, the shoes actually look a bit shit.

  • You kind of screwed up your starting. XD But anyway, this is stupid. This situation.

  • michael should be proud. people should be fucking ashamed

  • If they stopped making J's then everyone would be fighting over the pairs that still exist and that would be more chaos.

  • Fuckin shoes.....-_- good job Michael good job.

  • They look like piece of shit shoes anyways...

  • Their ignorant childish bastards, can't even behave themselves. People like that should be not aloud to breed.

  • It's up to the shop how many pairs they buy, not the manufacturer.

  • my thing is instead of limited time only just release pairs on top of pairs that way it wouldnt be some much chaos and havoc damn this nigga jordan do something the 10s im getting better not end like this.

  • didnt get a pair if 11 to damn high but i will be getting the 10s

  • Crazy ass people in Detroit.

  • Is it me or did Kev look like he had a retro fro the first few sec of the vid lmfao

  • And this is why I don't wear jordans anymore.......

  • omg some1 got shot over some jordans damn thats the stupidest thing i ever herd ;D

  • If Nike still owns Jordan brand ., why the hell did they take the "Nike Air" off them shits ?

  • i stabbed someone for a kitkat

  • I Think He Should Do Both.

  • I think Jordans should be removed form stores if this it the crap people do over them.

  • Its not Jordan's or Nikes fault and its sure as hell not his responsibility to raise people's kids for them. If Nike stopped making the shoes ignorant bastards will still pull this crap over different shoes.

    The only thing you can do to change it is learn to take care of yourself, keep a gun of your own or hope that the people having kids suddenly decide to start taking in interest in rising the their offspring rather then the Real House Wives.

  • I have never owned a pair of jordans in my life. i never even touched a pair. I see them all the time at stores. lol

  • Kevin, you best be trolling by saying Jordan need to step up about this. I guess Apple should feel guilty when people were being killed and attacked over Ipads.

    Please man, tell me you are trolling.

  • What it is, is that the families of these CHILDREN do not teach them home trainig. Half the time its the parents fault for not teaching their kids that material things do not matter,and that you can get a job, and earn money to buy these things yourself!!! THE ECONOMY'S FUCKED UP!!!

  • Wow I don't believe u just said this it's a choice that people have

  • Wow did u really just say that I'm from Dallas and camped out and got pair early. At town east mall the police made everything run smooth and took pic and wrote ur name down just in people cut in line. U stop making Jordan's there will be a high demand in another shoe. No one is talking about the Kevin d, Kobe, king James, Kane west shoes. I rather for Nike keep doing what they are doing cause I don't want everyone walking around with thesameshoes as me

  • I respect this video. Speak real and everything. But he should do none of those two.. What he should do is lower the price of the shoes.. Talkin about it doesn't really work. I live in the Bronx right in the projects. Do you honestly think him coming to my block and talking about the shoes will do anything? It won't really make a difference. What he need to do is lower the price because first of all $180 for a pair of shoes is ridiculous. It's lower the price or shit like this will continue sad

  • GREAT VIDEO BRUH!

  • Good video craft, but think of it this way. Its not jordans fault, maybe releasing more shoes to the stores would be a good idea... But face it if there was no such thing as jordans then there would be another product people would kill for...

  • what  if it were the wrong shoe size?o.o

  • All the other kids with the pumped up kicks better run better run outrun my gun. Is this a clue?

  • Forget Jordans, I'm cool with my tims and Chuck Taylor's

  • Detroit is the baddest city in US

  • It's Detroit. What does anyone expect? That place needs to be nuked. 90% of people living there shouldn't be consuming our oxygen.

  • Lol kev u didn't think that shit thru my dude. If mj quit making jordans u imagine how crazy fools will go. They would triple in value like "these r the last jordans ever made son"

  • I live in Detroit and unfortunately, this type of shit happens more frequently than it should! I love my city! Jus wish it would calm the fuck down!

  • People are so idiotic. Shooting and killing people just for " ugly over prized shoes"( alex jones quote lol) but seriously

  • I agree with Craftnation 100%.

  • if it wasn't jordan's shoes it would be someone elses. nike would go and sign someone else up and they would be the number one selling shoe.

  • It's real crazy out here man... I love shoes alot but I can't see risking my life or take someone's life over a pair of shoes...

  • The same thing is going to happen with Lebrons in da next generation and we are going to look at our kids wondering why the hell are we killing each other over a pair of Retro Lebrons or Original Lebrons just like our older family are doing us right now. Back in the day I bet Kevin or maybe some of his family members could walk right in the store and see all the jordans that we cry for now just ready to be bought. Its crazy out here man. I love shoes alot but i cant see myself killing over them

  • @popbottleshoes i never heard about anybody getting killed over lebrons just sayin

  • People are still killing each other over Jordans? Damn, he could've had mine, i don't wear them anyway, poor kid.

  • I think thhey should put more shoes out in the stores cuz i waited 8 hours and didnt get them because everyone was oushing and shoving and cutting in lines and then they sold out

  • wow over shoes that just crazy. Man 2012 and they still acting a damn fool.

  • why should michael jordan endanger himself over other peoples stupidity, greed and materialism? he doesnt make the product. he is but the face of the shoe. it os NOBODYS fault but the consumers! the ones who acctully fight over the shoes themselvs. just my opinion though. believe what ever the fuck u want to.

  • i think they are jus shoes but if u are willing to put your life on the line for a pair a shoes, 1 you are either nuts or 2 you just fucking retarted. but if i were to go get me a pair i would be carrying a piece with me.

  • Michael Jordan, Look in that magic 8-Ball u called a head, and see what is going on with this shit u are doing in the consumers market. U are a monster, and If I ever own a sneaker store, your Jordans will be either put into a lottery or just banned completely.

  • I'm gonna be open about these pathetic Air Jordan sneakers, I hate Jordans and I'm starting to really dislike Jordan period, because of how his brand of sneakers are causing more of hilarious specitations from the company and their sick-ass humor of seeing people ramsack stores for these sneakers.

  • Yo its not jordans fault he sighed a contract with nike they can sell his shoes wen ever they want and put as many as they want in each store so dont blame him....thumbs this up

  • @AirAdeaga But they have HIS name on them. He should step up and say something.

  • @mesquitemagic have u seen the bobcats his has more problems working on his team then worrying about ppl doing dum shit over shoes he has no control now the maker of nike maybe he should say somthing not jordan his under contract he cant do shit

  • They were about to kill him but I Hussein they changed their mode my grandfather lives. Close. To that guy

  • i think detroit in general is the main problem here

  • Jordan stop making Jordans?!?!?!?!? My god!! take them Hanes off and make them shoes!!!

  • Why Mike gotta say something, it ain't his fault that niggas act like uncivilized brainless ass apes over some ugly ass overpriced POS shoes! Blame materialism!

  • @xxxWarriorGoddessxxx I was gonna make a comment basically saying the same thing. He is a business man and he has a product thats hot. What people do to get his product is not his responsibility because I doubt he planned for people to lose there lives over some f*ckin sneakers, no matter what.Not even for him to profit!!!!!

  • Quit making those shits "exclusive". Do a online fire sale at least. I couldn't consciously allow my fans of my brand to sit in the cold and wait or get killed over my products.

  • i got robed for a banana

  • thumbs up for EPIC INTRO!!

  • nike and mj shouldnt be held responsible for anything...

    people in this world are crazy enuff to kill for shoes...

    its not michaels fault or nikes fault

  • well the next time they come out with the best jordan shoes they better get alot of them in stock and keep getting them in so everybody has a chance to buy them or this bad stuff could happen again next time for real. we dont need this to happen again. hopefuly this does not happen next year here in 2012. every body should have a equal chance to buy the shoes with out them running out of stock.

  • Ya know....I've been wondering if I reeeeeeeeeeeally wanna get some jordans. I don't think I wanna get shot or robbed for lookin good.

  • live*

  • This is probably similar to my city. I love in Memphis, and at my school, it's a fashion show every day there. If you fail to show up with the coolest school clothes ( we all wear the same fucking school colors.. come on now.), then you will either get insulted/bullied. School is not a fucking fashion show, it's for learning, not judging others because of the clothing they wear. My generation is going to kill themselves before the government gets a chance to.

  • Referencing ghetto to blacks is racist, to whomever posted below.. That would be equivilent to white trash. Most black people I know dont give a fuck when they get called a nigger, but freak the fuck out when called ghetto.

  • That is some of the dumbest shit ever. Killing someone over some shoes? I don't care what kind of shoes they are. That is no reason to kill someone over. What is this world coming too? If people want them that bad they need to put more out there or just stop making them. It's just a shoe.

  • fuck society

  • love mj, but ever own his shoes,tho.

  • Ehh Michael Jordan being responsible for this i think not, like way back when, ozzy osborne came out with a song named sucide, well not to long after its release a teenager killed himself while listening to suicide on repeat, this being the same thing, was ozzy responsible for the child kiling himself? Na, witch is why i think jordan shouldnt be held responsible.

  • I think MJ should low the cost of his Jordans.

  • Amen

  • i was recently robbed a couple months back they stole my pink ,black & white jordans LOL & left the rest of my shoes . . .Aint that bout a BITCH . . .these shoes are exspensive "Yes" but it's not worth someones Life .

  • I think he should have sneaker stores/sites (Nike/Foot Locker/Foot Action/Champs/etc.) restock on those Air Jordan Retro 11 "Concord" sneakers.

  • Aint surprised I saw over here in chi-town sum old Guy getting shanked for a bag of chips

  • What are so special about these damn shoes?
