 1989 there were four different original colorways of the Air Jordan 4 we have them here inside of this box Okay, and there's no other way to rank these shoes besides having a og in the video for sure right it only makes sense So today we're gonna unbox them and rank them based off the best to the worst colorway This has been a debate for many sneaker heads for many years This is the first time we've ever seen the Air Jordan with the Nike air and a retro iteration in all four colorways All right. All right. Let's get so we're gonna unbox these in order from release date So we'll talk about how they came out and then we'll show you the process and give you the context to each shoe A little bit of history and then we'll rank them that way you understand The value of each shoe right thing. Okay. All right. All right sneaker number one You got the og box now this came out in 2016 and this is the Second iteration with the Nike air on the back of the shoe right and that's the white cement air Jordan 4 This right here shoe right here is the man is Like the colorway has always been nice. You can't go wrong with the shoe And the hang tag that's one of the things I hate. They stopped doing those shoes But see that's my thing. This one has the jump it has the jump man with the air instead of the Nike air on there So it's not giving us that full og vibe. You know what I'm saying, but still like just still tight there. I like it I get it. Yeah, so This shoe we saw a night. We saw the original then we saw 1999 retro Nike air They did a great job on the shoe then we saw 2012. There was a jump man on the back We can't forget the fusion and that makes I want to say that was 2009 Uh, and then you had the 2016 now. This was the remastered series This was the beginning of jordan brand saying hey, we're gonna get back to quality We're gonna get back to materials We're gonna get back to cuts We're gonna start doing it right because it was time to get away from the model And this was the staple shoe for the sneaker community about to eight years ago They didn't mess the shoe up sometimes they bring the shoe out and just mess it up This shoe right here is cleaning like the leathers the cuts everything, you know me. I like I said the hang tag is good The the Nike air and like this right here is hard to be You know, I like that they could do the jump man, whatever, but I'm just telling you like for me I still like the Nike air. Okay Yeah, all these are gonna have Nike air on the back and then not even to mention Spike Lee do the right thing his shoes getting scuffed in the movie the different scenes and the different cultural moments with this shoe So many different rappers wearing this shoe over the years Not only just music and sports and it was just so many different elements to why this shoe was dope Right, they did this shoe is just clean Like It's just clean like remember I told you before like I like the simple Color even I wear a size 14 and don't look big But you're a size 14, but it don't look actually wear these. Yes for sure because okay It don't look so big in here They did the black toe right here this black that helps it slow it down So it's not so big in the front. Well, we can spend a whole another day talking about this shoe We got four classics to go through. So overall, what do you think you would rate these out of 10 without seeing the other ones I'm gonna still get this one 10 10 out of 10. This still get a 10 This is gonna be a tough rate. This shoe is a rocker. It's a 10. All right, okay I'll never go back on this shoes. I say all I say all four is a 10 out of 10 So I'm gonna have a hard time picking. I think I got mine, but you know, this is the first one So this came out in 2016 the next release will go through the next release. I get excited when I see that shoe Okay, next up to release a couple years later in 2019 few years later in 2019 We saw this pair right here and that is the black cement also known as the bread air Jordan force Oh my So the only thing I would say is the hang tag. I want the hang tag off the other one You want the other hand? This is the og hang tag. I want the hang tag off. I like the other hang tag I got them on my other shoe. Okay. Okay. Everything else. This shoe get 11 11 It's a 10 out of a 10. So we got to get 11. Okay. This shoe right here is durable You know for the color you can wear it. You can beat it up. This shoe is doing good again another classic model Something that we saw debuted during all-star weekend of different things like that. This shoe has Been a classic for many years and it's not going anywhere anytime soon. No, and it could potentially take first place. Maybe I don't know. It's real close. It's gonna be close. I have to look at the other ones, but right now out of the two This this is it. It's a good shoe But I don't know though. I got reasons for other shoes and I got I got memories of other shoes So we're gonna see but but of course in other like whole different shoes But as long as we stay in this shoe right here This shoe right here is a classic. Okay. So we saw 1999 Then we saw 2008 in the cdp pack. Yeah, then we saw I think 2009 There was a fusion or one of them years. There was a fusion. I don't have these the 2012 I used to have these you don't got the I don't have these no more. So you need those in your life I don't have these no more. I so remember the leather pair that just came out last year So listen, we're not even going to rank those because those get a 12 Yeah, we did the ranking video. You didn't even rank those the leather ones. What's your number one? They had to be number one. I think we did the threes I don't even remember we got a video back. Hey, watch that other video the ranking video that leather window in this shoe Because remember the leather was super nice. I know anyway, so that's what I'm saying though You're gonna see this next shoe and be like this is nice I can't go higher than 11 All right, so this is the bread for this came out next Uh, you know just recently so if you're a sneakerhead basically over the past eight years This is like the goal is to get every era Jordan for with the Nike year Who does that so it take it's basically taking modern-day sneakerheads eight years to do this from 2016 to current time Right because you had 2016 but then you had 2019 real sneakerheads take time to get shoes. That's what I'm saying Those height beasts. Oh, I got this. I got this. I get that. That's crazy. Stop that I'm talking about real sneakerheads. No, it take time to get shoes And you've got to sit on them and don't wear them as soon as you get them Right. No, you got to double up. So all these shoes. I have two to three the last reimagined fours I thought I had three pair. I got five I was going through the box. Oh, I got more I've been wearing them too. I'm like, this is crazy. Okay. And no size 14 See what happened was how do we how you get five? We'll figure that out. We'll figure that out. We'll figure that out Next shoe This shoe right here. Oh my gosh I just I have so many memories with this shoe That's the thing for me So it's really high on my list because I remember when these came out back in high school The mars black man air jordan four the face on the side the military blues I don't have time to miss fours you name it. So How do they come in this series like I'm go 10 11 12? No This shoe right here. I don't have a shooter, but I'm gonna tell you like this It's got to get a 10 It can't get 11 because of black. I can wear it more often. Okay, but this shoe is wearable Like we blazers bulls blah, blah, blah, right and this red black and white. You can never go wrong Yeah I have multiple they cannot really mess this shoe up Right. I couldn't even tell you like this is a clean ass clean shoe. Let's do a hang tag I want the other hang tag. This is the other. Oh, no, this is the this is the og hang tag I know I understand that was original when they switched to that big plastic. Okay I like that now Hear me out on this This pair is the actual og cut the other two pairs was more of like a remastered cut This is the first version with the og cut So this is going to look damn near identical to the red to the 1989 pair So my gripe was hard my gripe to jordan brand is hey We still need black cement fours and white cement fours in this cut with those materials We technically have the infinity stones put together, but it's not just all the way right, you know I'm saying so this right here opened the door to a whole new legacy of nikey air on the black, you know On the classic four color ways and that's what's so hard about this Because neither one of these shoes they went wrong right like the color ways even though like you said you change They change the cut a little bit, but The shoe itself It's clean. They didn't mess it up. I mean sometimes they bring the shoe back out. Just just trash the look over there You see I got a pair right there rockers black pair rockers Yeah, I got other ones that in the other room, but they're heavy in the rotation Yeah, I love. Oh, I know I love this. I know but I don't have size 14 What are we doing here? So in 2006 we saw the mars black man Then we saw another fusion and then in 2012 we saw a retro Which was not really that good and then we saw these come out in 2020 So we've seen again with each of these models there have been multiple retro iterations over the years That have gotten us now To the perfect style the perfect cut everything is correct matching the colorways all this stuff like This shoe right here was the one this is more iconic. You see I'm saying yeah So that's just kind of where I'm at. It's going to be a hard time ranking. That's all I'm saying Okay, if we're gonna do them in order Later, did I can't tell you what this would All right, fourth and final original colorway We have the air Jordan 4 military blue now I did some research and I couldn't find any photos of Michael Jordan wearing this shoe, right? I'm like, where's the photos at so please send me a link so I can have some photos But I did find Gilbert arenas wearing the shoe. So that's kind of weird, but in the way This is an og colorway, but it wasn't an og bull's colorway So maybe that's why he didn't wear it or we didn't see it often Obviously, he's not gonna wear it on court But like him wearing it in the streets or at some event or something. You know, I didn't see him wearing it so These they're set to come out in a couple weeks. This is a high demand sneaker Potential sneaker at a year all the different stuff This pair is even closer to the original when it comes to the shape and how they executed this model. This is the The closest we will ever get to 1989 pair They actually have the little plastic here compared to the metal beads and everything like this is exactly just this is great This is I mean like how do we the ranking is going to be crazy. Yeah Because this is clean And the thing is like I said, we do this. I do me. I do simple colorways. This is very simple They didn't mess it up at all these colors and do all this other crazy, but the nice gray touch in the front That's clean. That's clean because truth is we always kind of scuff these up a little bit So you already got a little gray a little dirty. That's cool I don't know trying to rank these we got to rank these in four one two three four We're gonna we're gonna get them all out. Oh my god This shoe is clean the leather's good. This is gonna be hard Okay, so 2006 then you had a fusion I think 2009 and then you had a 2012 retro and then you had a golf spike That came out a couple years ago speaking of that there's golf spikes of all these versions too I don't know if the fire rates have a golf spike, but I know there's a black cement and a White cement and then you got this version right here. So again multiple retro iterations different pairs coming out every You know five years or so or whatever may be For this shoe, but this one again First ever retro with the Nike air on the back Since the original we have never seen this before this is gonna be tough This shoe clean this shoes fire for sure and again two og cuts Now you put them in those like you look at the color way But then you look at the shoe and the materials and the cuts and you're like, how do I how do I do this? You know what I'm saying? So that's gonna be the hard part. So we're at this point now And uh, we're gonna get all the shoes together and we're gonna rank them from best to worst Hey, yo, just real quick. I wanted to let you guys know We got a bunch of new merch on the website shop dna show dot com Also, you guys can click on any of the links of the product tag just below the video here If you're watching on your mobile devices I can't wait to see you guys rocking the gear whenever you cop something make sure you post it on ig So I can see it and then I'll repost it. All right. Let's get back to the video. All right, guys And we are back. So before we get started with the ranking I just had to throw this in there somebody said you should throw it in the ranking Some people said you shouldn't I was like, we'll just talk about it real quick So these are the what the air Jordan fours So they took all four og color ways and incorporated them into this model This came out a few years ago and you see it was funny because they had the Nike air And this was the first time people saw this and they're like, yo, we never even seen this So people were like going crazy over it and then these kind of sat Went to outlets people wasn't rocking with them They sat when they came out then covid came next thing, you know Everybody started hyping up the floors and then it was like a five hundred dollars shoe And you're like, what happened like nobody wanted you blew it now. It's everybody's grill. Yeah, it's funny how it works So what would you should we even talk about these anymore? Should we just keep it pushing? I'll say keep them out of there because it's already going to tough enough. Let's go. So With the ranking oh geez here we go. We have to consider Wearability style look cuts stat. You just everything We have to go through all these factors and figure out how we're going to rank this so Like we do Pick which shoe you think should be in last place We're gonna do it on three. All right. Can you you ready? Yeah, or you need some time. No, you got it last place. All right one two three No, because Look, i'm a blue jean kind of guy. Okay, so you know, I wear blue jeans with those But you know, I wear jeans and whatnot and you wear them little tight little shorts, but stop it These right here No, these got to be last These are gonna go last the white cement four is last This time it's gonna go last right now. That's crazy. Okay. How about this for now? for now We'll put them both in third and fourth for now And then we'll we'll plead our cases for these two We'll plead our cases Okay, okay. I mean, even though we'll just do it like this While we wait right here. All right. All right Okay, so we'll get back to this wait. What the white cement This is top two This is that's great. Okay top two I say top two you say last so that has to be all right. We can meet in the middle At second or third, right? Okay, but how'd you put this at last? No, I'm just saying we'll put this all right It's just sitting there. It's just sitting there for now So if I say this is top two and you say last that means we'll put it at a strong third strong third strong third so These two shoes are very similar military blue fire red four Yes I wore both of these shoes back in high school To the ground So I have an equal amount of memories in both shoes, right and I am very excited about these But I was very excited about this and I still wear these to this right so Equal playing ground for me. This is the new hot shiny thing. They're coming out right now. It's clean Don't get me wrong. So we have to remember that too, but we're talking. Oh geez All right, which ones? You know, I gotta go black keep it black I'm going Okay, so like that we're gonna put these in first if you want to do that. I think personally A vast majority of people are going to choose this one as first place wearability Clean cuts night here all the stuff good for all shoe sizes everything because don't look like a boat when it's 13 or 14 Right. Also, I did a poll. We'll look at the poll results at the end of the video I posted a poll on the youtube community tab So we'll see what the poll results say and see how accurate we are compared to the poll results, right so We got this as one that's one for now Yeah for the whole time I'll say for the whole time. That's crazy because again two og cuts. It's got me scared right now Two og cuts But then we're talking about colorways. So are we talking about literally Let's not think about cuts. Let's just think about colorways and og This is og model, right? I think I want to move. I want to like if we assume that all these were og cut Right, that's the color blocking. We'll just worry about colorway, right? What do you want to change? I don't know. I feel like I want to change this to this now Okay, see now you're talking. I told you this was a strong second. I think this is first This is second. I think I'm changing right now. We're getting somewhere. We're getting somewhere We're making progress. It's progress. Okay. I think that's my final choice right there This is the four or do you want to go like this? Oh, don't do that Don't do that. It could be done like that though. Okay, so it could be like that or like this Yeah, but this Is the key versus because because the other part is too These the main colors we wear These three This main colors we wear on a regular basis But this is a clean shoe. This one of them shoes you're gonna walk out there You didn't wear all the time and you're gonna bust him out and everybody's oh, you got those on right? And then you're gonna put them back up. You're not gonna wear them again It's gonna be like another year until we go to sneaker con and you see everybody rocking. Oh you're gonna do a video Okay, but hear me out. Look. This is what's funny prime example. These came out airbite. Oh the leather There's glue. There's quality control Everybody cried about a couple here everybody crying about the shoe, right? Right Two years later taxing. Oh, this is a grail. I need the shoe of my life But it was sitting people did not want it like why y'all like it was barely This earlier we say buy what you like right, but there's so many heightbeats in these shoes It just killed me either you like it or don't like it right now I've changed my mind on shoes in hand I didn't see it. I seen on the video, but if You didn't do that and you seen it at the outlet and you didn't buy it. That's just stupid at that point Yeah, I feel it. I feel it. So this is uh Going to be interesting to see what happens with this because when these came out well, they have they're about to come out Uh, there was reselling for like 800 bucks. We always get to shoot early. There was There was reselling for like 800 hours before they came out, right? Oh, these about to come out and then they They did a shot drop and then the price slowly starting to creep down So i'm interested to see what what happens once these release because I already didn't see people complaining This is a tough shoot. I don't know if I really wanted to last but again, there's no wrong way I think there's no wrong answer. Tell me is there a there's no wrong answer Is there's no wrong answer? All right, I think they're ready. They're ready for us to finalize the results. So Is this it? Okay, that's it. That's it. That's it. I am good because I almost wanted to move that shoe again I think personally this has been my order forever This has there's no ever for the entire time that I thought about the og 4 set This has been my colorway order first to last. So we got coming in at fourth place We got the military blue air jordan 4 beautiful shoe Beautiful shoe, but it's taken for Third place. We have the fire red air jordan 4. This is our ranking But they really don't mess up no fire. It's like every time it's cool. That's the hard part second place We have the white cement air jordan 4. I still call Oreo cookies the Oreos And then number one we have the bread the black cement the What is it called? Black and red the this guy like four names Like whatever you want to call it either way. This is our number one. So Uh, I'm gonna vote as number one Black cement. Okay. And that's what the people picked. They picked that they picked that. I'm gonna get a screenshot 55 of the people chose the black cement air jordan 4 second place 23 white cement air jordan 4 What's the third place the fire red military They didn't like this And then in last place with nine percent the fire red air jordan 4 Wow, I still like our order better our orders. Yeah, I think our order is better. That's what I'm saying At the end of the day, this is our ranking don't worry if your feelings are hurt from it I don't know why because we're just ranking shoes. We're having fun. Buy what you like and get all four pair Get all four because there's no wrong answer There's no wrong answer like what you like buy what you like order them How you want to order them either way at the end of the day drop a comment down below and let us know What your ranking is in the comment section and if you want to see any other ranking videos Let me know. I got a bunch of other og's in my collection I feel like we should do this with other models But the other thing is you got to tell us your shoe size too because don't be saying that When you got that little foot What does that have to do with anything? No because that's what I said earlier The proportion the portion And you got a size nine shoe and we got a 14. Yeah, it does look a 13 14 Yeah, it looks terrible when it's like a 14. So you're ranking the shoe, but you got a little foot. Yeah, I get that Anyway, grow man We got it All right.
