 Today, I'm gonna be giving you guys an in-depth review of the Air Jordan 1 low Travis Scott Reverse Mocha. And you know it's only right that I give you a comparison with the first two colorways as well. And to make things even sweeter, I got a second pair and this one's for you. So make sure you stick around to the end of the video to find out how to enter. So if you didn't know by now, my name is DJ and this is The DNA Show.

If you haven't already, consider subscribing and joining the fam. We're on the road to a million subscribers and you could be the next one to get us there. So when it comes to the Reverse Mocha, I'm sure a lot of you guys have already seen these in hand or other people's reviews, but before we get into the studio, you know what time it is. We gotta talk about the history first. So as we all know, Travis Scott has been doing collaborations with Jordan Brands for the past few years now and almost every single one of his sneakers have been highly sought after and very, very expensive to say the least. Back in 2019, we got the low top version right here and during that time, not everybody was a low top fan but I can guarantee you this sneaker right here alone definitely changed that game. In a couple of years following that release in 2021, we then got the Travis Scott Low Top Fragment Air Jordan 1. This also had a high top version as well that went with it but a lot of people were more fans of the low top version simply because of the color blocking alone and because the Trab Frag low came out recently in the past year or so, it's definitely been a lot more accessible sneaker for a lot of people and I can guarantee you over the past year, you have definitely seen a lot of people wearing this sneaker. So now we're in 2022 and we have the reverse mocha that just came out and everybody's been going crazy over these and honestly, I feel like they're a little overpriced and don't worry, at the end of the video, we'll talk about pricing, rarity and predictions on future releases and how those prices are going to be as well because we're expected to see a couple more low top set that come out this year as well in the winter time so there's gonna be a lot of stuff when it comes to the Travis Scott energy, especially around the low top versions alone. So now let's hop into the studio real quick so I can give you guys a nice in depth review of this shoe. Now before I crack open this box, we gotta talk about Soul Steel. Soul Steel is a membership based platform that does shock drops throughout the week and guaranteed drops every single Sunday at 3 p.m. Pacific Standard Time. They have crazy restocks all the time with thousands of shoes hidden in the app and I can guarantee you can find samples, PEs, one offs and a whole lot of the latest and greatest releases. Prime example, I struck out on the shoe on sneakers app but I was still able to get a pair from Soul Steel and hopefully I can help you guys get a pair as well, which we'll talk about later in the video on the raffle and how that's gonna go. I've personally been using Soul Steel's for a few years now and I love it. I've gotten so many releases and if all you guys that watch my channel, you know, I've gotten a bunch of things from their site before. So if you haven't heard of them before, make sure you check them out because I can guarantee you they always got the best prices in the game. Hit the link down below in the description to get set up and trust me, it is well, well worth it. They be putting shoes on their app for a dollar, $10 mystery boxes. They got so much different stuff. They got toys, collectibles, a whole bunch of cool stuff. I love using them all the time. Again, I get shoes from them often so that's why I'm saying it and I'm letting you guys know and I'm excited to partner with them. But with all that being said, let's go ahead and crack this box open and see what these shoes are talking about. Starting with the box right here, you have your classic Air Jordan 1 OG style box, but it's got a different twist. It's got that more glossy vibe with the tan and then the matte brown right here with the Nike and the swoosh and that's also on the sides, back and front of the box. And on the size tag, it reads Air Jordan 1 Low OG SP Sail University Red Ridge Rock. Now I know everybody likes to call these the reverse mochas, but technically they're not that color but at the end of the day it's okay because you know a sneaker head. We always got our nickname for every shoe. Now taking off the lid of the box right here, you have your classic Travis Scott pink paper with the Cactus Jack logo, the face and the Nike air and the Air Jordan Wings logo. And then peeling back that, you got your white paper and then you got the shoe. Oh, you got the shoe. Now starting with the bottom, you got your classic Air Jordan 1 outsole with the all brown vibes. We call it the Ridge Rock, not the mocha, but we'll still call it mocha. You got a sail colored midsole with the sail stitch. You also have a sail swoosh on the outside of the foot with a tumbled leather. And then on the inside of the foot, you have a white tumbled leather right here. So I know some people may or may not have seen that already but I made sure I wanted to point that out for you guys cause I showed that to a couple of people and they were like low key confused. They didn't realize that the inside had a white swoosh instead of a sail swoosh. Now going to the rest of the upper, you got your simple reverse color blocking here with the two tones. So you got your brown suede or shall we call it Ridge Rock suede. And then we have a white leather tumbled all around the rest of the toe and the back end around the heel. And then you have a red stitch right here on the back end with the Air Jordan wings logo on the right foot and the cactus jack face on the left foot. And these come equipped with a pair of sail wax laces and an additional set of white laces, brown laces and red laces. And honestly, I feel like low key, any of these four laces will look good in issue. I might be interested in changing these up. It's going to take me a little bit so I'll think about it. But let me know which lace option you would go with when it comes to these four color ways. Now on the top of the tongue, you got your Nike Air branding right here with the white patch and the red stitch. And then on the side of the tongues, classic with the Travis Scott ones, you got the cactus jack branding patched right here on the right foot and right here on the left foot. Looking at the inside of the foot, you got a brown sock liner and a brown insole, red jump man on the left side, Travis Scott branding on the right with the cactus jack. And then also one thing I forgot to mention as well, you got the cactus jack printed right here on the inside of the foot in red. Another iconic hit that we have seen done on the Travis Scott Air Jordan ones each and every time. Now as you can see, when it comes to these three models right here, the shoes are pretty much the exact same when it comes to the branding and all those type of aspects. The only thing that's gonna switch up is going to be the materials in different areas and then the color blocking in different areas as well. But essentially everything is pretty much the same when it comes to the overall mold and branding, especially on these two versions because it's like the mocha and reverse mocha. Now we know there are gonna be a little bit different hits when it comes to branding because this was a fragment collaboration as well. So they switched the cactus jack on the back end right here and added the fragment logos also stamped on the back end of the heels. Another thing that you can obviously see as well on the presentation when it comes to the boxes, you're gonna have three different boxes right here. This is more of a matte brown with a red finish on here and this is more of a glossy sale with a matte brown finish. And then you got your all over sleeve right here with the translucent and it's got the fragment and the Travis Scott and all that stuff. And then you got the matte white with the blue finish on here on the box. So a lot of cool elements in the design and display aspects as well of these sneakers. Now let's take it back to the office and talk about opinions and prices. Now that you guys have seen it in-depth review of this shoe, I'm excited to see how you feel about these down below in the comment section and I'll be giving you guys my impressions in a little bit. But first I need to see what y'all think about this shoe and the other two shoes compared against it. So if you haven't already, make sure you follow me on IG so you can participate in all the polls that I post there and see all the results here on the channel. But basically I asked the people a simple question, is this shoe fire or is this shoe trash? And I asked each shoe individually. So I guess whichever shoe has the highest percentage means that's the one that people like the most. So let's see what the people said. So when it comes to the OG low top version right here, we have 90% saying fire and 10% saying trash and honestly that's a pretty high percentage and it makes complete sense to me because low key, this is still my favorite colorway out of the three. Now for the TrabFrag low, this one is very, very close too. It's 89% to 11%, which means that's essentially like the same but technically it's 1% off. Who knows, they might have just voted something a little bit different. But basically to me, the people are saying this one is a very close running up shoe to the OG model as well and everybody likes this one and don't get me wrong. I like this one too. I just, you know, I like the OG a little bit more but these are still fire. Now for the reverse mocha, this is something that I'm definitely really interested to see how everybody feels. I know it's a new release so that kind of has a lot more energy around it and people may have missed it or whatever it is so that kind of draws some hype. But anyways, let's see what the people say. Right here we have 90% to 10%. So that's also matching up with the OG colorway and essentially all these are around 90% to say the least. It might be one or two votes off but at the end of the day, it's basically like an even fight when it comes to the three shoes. So for me, if I were to rank these sneakers, I probably would go with the OG color first, the fragment color second and then I would go with the reverse mocha third. Now that's just my personal opinion. Let me know what you guys think down below in the comment section. Now when it comes to pricing, this is a great representation on showing you how sneakers go up in value over time especially if it's a dead stock pair because typically the more years from the release the higher the value goes up simply because people start to wear them next thing you know they want a new pair again and it's harder and harder to find year after year. So anyways, with the black and brown pair right here, you can see the last sale was around $2,300 and they're currently hitting for around 1,900 to 1,700 bucks. We know the sneaker market is down right now but either way I'd say roughly if you were to go to a sneaker resell shop or something like that, you're probably gonna be spending somewhere around low $2,000 high 1,900 somewhere around there. So that's kind of the pricing on the original black and brown colorway. Now when it comes to the black and blue Fragment Travis Scott collaboration these are gonna be hitting for around 1,300, 1,200 bucks somewhere around there and that is still a solid price to say the least. And I think it makes complete sense when you say, okay, based off of resell values and everything like that I could understand why all these three sneakers may be worth over $1,000 just based off of comparable numbers from the previous OG release to the second release saying that it's around half the value of the OG but at the same time it's still a $1,200 shoe. Now when it comes to the new release on the reverse Mocha these are gonna be hitting for right around $1,000 originally they were like 1,600, 1,700 bucks even close to $2,000 and as the release started to happen next thing you know the price started to go down which typically happens with a lot of releases. So right now the sneakers hitting for around that $1,000 range I'm a size 13 as well so take that into perspective based off of pricing and everything because I know it may vary on sizes but at the end of the day like I said earlier you can easily understand why these three sneakers are all gonna be worth at least $1,000 or more depending on when the shoe came out how many pairs of wear, how hard they were to get and all those other factors with the timing and everything like that over the releases but at the end of the day like I said it's still a $1,000 shoe. So next comes the question that everybody always asks me what should I do? Should I buy them now? Should I wait? Are they gonna go down? Are they gonna go up in value? What's happening? The shoe game is crashing. What should I do? I don't know. At the end of the day like I always tell everybody I'm a sneaker collector first so if you like the shoe, get the shoe. That's what you wanna do. Go ahead and cop the kick. Now when it comes to pricing and if you're trying to resell and all this other stuff or get the best value for what you got it for and hoping that the shoe goes up in value over time and you're able to wear the sneaker and then it's worth more later even though you worn the shoe because that happens a lot for us sneaker heads. We know that predictorment as well. I think it is a solid time to purchase right now. I think you probably can find somebody in your local market to be able to get the shoe for a little bit cheaper than paying the fees or going to a consignment shop that is then charging a little bit more than that stock X price and all the different stuff right there. But I think right now trying to get the sneaker for around under $1,000 if you can find and say, hey, after fees and everything I'll pay you 850 or 800 or 900 or something like that. I think that makes sense. I feel like a lot of people are gonna wanna wear that shoe right now and over time they're gonna wish that they still had a dead stock pair. So if you're able to have a crispy pair on ice or especially if you got the shoe for retail at like 150 bucks I think you're gonna be okay and have nothing to worry about.
