 This shoe used to be $1,000 and now it's not. But you guys know me, I never spend top dollar. I got these for 340 bucks and I'm excited to show you guys my new pickup. Oh yeah, and if you didn't know by now, my name is DJ and this is The DNA Show. Hey! All right, right here. Now you guys have seen this box before on the channel but it was a different shoe inside. It was the Oregon Ducks Air Max 1. Saw that one in the past with the previous drop. They did the NFTs. If you guys wanna learn about that shoe, I've done a review. I'll make sure I link that down below. Now we have these ones right here. I've been waiting for these and I've been very, very patient. Oh man, I've been so patient. All black on the top right here. Matte black, white finish right here with the Nike branding and then you have your two-tone Oregon Ducks right here. So you got the green on this area and then on this part of it, it's green with the black text and then wrap it around here. Green all on the front, green on the side. And it says limited right here and that faint green and then it's all green here. Now on the size tag, it reads Nike Duncaloe University of Oregon P, probably for P.E. or Player Edition or whatever they like to call it. And then light silver, white black, size 12 and a half just for me and lift and open the lid of the box. Another detail I forgot to show. Let me show you right here. Okay, so you got the QR code right here. I think this directs to the information about the website for what they're doing for the foundation, how the money goes back to the players and everything. I haven't scanned this one but I'm sure it's probably all that similar stuff. If I'm wrong, correct me down below in the comment section. I'm being lazy right now. And then you got puddles right here with the organ branding in the center of that. Now back to the shoe. The part that I want to show you guys. This looks like standard white paper but if you look really, really closely you have the organ O all throughout here on the all over print. Pilling that back, you got the shoe. Oh, you got the shoe. Now y'all know me. First impressions is kind of hard because I've seen this shoe multiple times but it's definitely a lot more exciting when you got the pair in your collection for yourself and now that you know that they're yours. So if you're new to this channel I love to start with the bottom of the shoe and work my way up, going through all the styles, cuts, materials and details. Looking at the bottom of the shoe, pretty plain. All black outsole, Nike dunk bottom, you can't go wrong with it. Going up to the midsole, pure white with the white stitch and then to the upper. Oh, the upper. You got a set of two, kind of three different materials right here. You have a smoother white leather, a tumble leather and then a suede right here and you got a gray tone, a faint gray tone, a little bit lighter than the gray tone on the tumble leather and then your white leather right here around the swoosh. Now, looking at the toe box and everything right here you can see it looks really, really clean. It's dope how they added that neon green finish around the cuts of the leather as well. So it kind of makes it pop a little bit more, give it a little bit more character and not like all the grays kind of blend in together. A small detail to the shoe that some people may not pay attention to but when you look at it real close you start to see, oh, that's kind of cool how it separates the materials because the colors are so similar and it almost kind of gives you that neon light kind of make the shoe glow feel type of vibe. Another dope touch that goes along with that is you got that double and single stitch of the neon all throughout the upper as well when it comes to the swoosh, the leather panels right here even around the eye stays on the front end and I like how they added that as well to make it all tie in together. Now, going to the back end of the shoe around the heel, you got your gray suede, you got your green stitch right here with the lines across. You got your tumble leather like we showed and then your tumble leather patch right here with your white O stitch on both sides of the heel, the left and the right foot. And these come with a pair of standard gray flat laces to match the upper as well but you also have an additional pair of white flat laces that honestly I feel like might look really dope with these just because it gives a little bit more character on the front end of the shoe and then it kind of ties in the swoosh and the midsole. Let me know what you guys think about that. I might have to switch that out this time. Now looking at the tongue of the shoe you got more of a kind of like a ballistic mesh type of style, it's a little bit thicker right here with the black mesh. Then you got the duck stitched right here in the lime green and then you have that same thing with the lime green patch and then your multicolored organ duck's logo right here on both of the tongues as well. Now going to the back end of the tongue you got tinker signature in all black right there and then on the back of the left foot, same thing and then looking at the insoles you got that multicolored striped insole matching the duck's logo on the tongue and then on the right foot you got the university of Oregon O and then on the left foot you got ducks of a feather right here on the inside. So this shoe right here to me is dope, is clean. It's bright and it's loud but it's still simple. It's hard to explain. I know you got the wild colors but at the same time it's still simple. You know what I'm saying? Sometimes you got a PE that's just like extra but it's like I like how they tied this one together. I was talking to them about this with one of my homies and we're like this is a PE that's like it's dope to have. I know, I mean yeah it's a PE it's a released PE just like the, you know the eights they did the same thing but I think this is one that's dope to have not wanting to rush out and get, you know don't fall in for the hype but at the same time take your time and go get it type thing. So me I was patient, a real real patient because when this shoe first came out it was like a thousand dollars and I was like, yo too much money not doing it, they're gonna drop in price I know it's gonna happen. What happened? Give it some time this came out like fall time or something like that last season right? So, you know it's been about a year now so we say hey it's been about a year give it some time, prices go down it's like half of that it's like 500 bucks now after fees people are making 400 and something so for me I had an opportunity to get these for 340 bucks this was a great deal I had to jump on it and it made sense for what I wanted to pay and like I tell everybody buy shoes at prices that you wanna pay be patient you don't have to go out and spend top dollar to get the shoe it's the same shoe yes they only made a thousand pairs of this shoe but at the end of the day you're gonna find a pair it's okay I waited, I waited some shoes I've waited five years, seven years you've seen videos on my channel it took me 12 years to find this shoe because I waited and I waited and I waited and I found the deal and I was like you know what this is the price that makes sense I'm gonna get the shoe and now I can enjoy it and get it at the right price and still be able to if I decide to sell it someday might be able to make a couple bucks now when it comes to the Oregon stuff you know I ain't getting running out of the Oregon stuff I like my Oregon collection I like to get all the different stuff I got the Revis's I got the other trainers I got the phone posits, the Jordans the you know I'm from Oregon man it just makes sense I gotta have them all so besides that and my excitement for the shoe I'm interested to see what you guys think about the shoe because I heard a lot of people say they thought the shoe was weak and honestly I'm not mad at you bro you know what I'm saying you ain't from Oregon or whatever it is or you don't like the Ducks or you just think the colorway is trash there's a plenty of reasons so I wanna see what everybody think I post polls on my Instagram stories so if you haven't already follow me on IG so you can participate in those and then I'll post all the results here on my channel so this is what the people said 55% of the people said it was fire and 45% of the people said it was trash it makes sense you could like I said not like the Ducks there's so many different reasons why you don't like it there's so many reasons why you may like it and I don't know I was kinda thinking it was gonna be like you know 65, 35 fire trash but I can understand why it's 55, 45 so do you think those results were accurate let me know down below in the comment section is this a shoe that you're going after is this a shoe that you already have what price did you get it for how much do you wanna buy it for answer all those questions for me down below in the comment section I would love to read them and again be nice to everybody if you don't like a shoe it's okay but if you say it's trash like tell me why it's trash you know elaborate a little bit don't just be like the shoe's weak like okay where do we get with the conversation I love to hear why people don't like things too it's always interesting to understand other people's perspectives at the same time because that's one thing that's super dope about the shoe game we don't all have to like the same stuff at the end of the day we're buying what we're like we're building our collections how we want to yeah we might make a couple bucks here and there or we might even build a massive collection to be worth a hundred thousand dollars or we're gonna sell it someday and enjoy it along the process and then use that for a down payment and buy a house or whatever if that's something that you wanna do again I can help you link down below I'm helping as many people as I can become six figure sneakerheads whether that's making six figures turning their collection into six figures or finding ways to turn that into an investment and buy real estate and other assets as well so then they can use that cash flow and money to buy more shoes so I hope you guys enjoy this appreciate you as always I'm out I would never let you down and sit my DNA the only choice I like to make what I'ma wear today I would never let you down and sit my DNA the only choice I like to make what I'ma wear today I was made for it it's in the DNA
