To all my sneaker heads here I figured I would post these considering the news today that Drake might be leaving the Jordan brand for Adidas. What do you all think of this? I’m not surprised. Jordan/Nike been losing a lot of people lately especially Jordan. They don’t allow their people to design their own shoes. What goes is only what they say not the artist or athlete. Look at why Kanye left Nike for Adidas....the rest is history. Can you imagine some sick drake kanye adidas sneaker! OVO logo on adidas! Anyways enjoy these. In my opinion these are my favorite Jordan x OVO to ever release. They are also the first release ever. If Drake in fact leaves Jordan these gonna go up up up in resale.

This is big news! Word is Drake got some issues with Jordan (not sure how true this is) but if he does leave for Adidas I'm expecting some big things.

Adidas already has Kanye and Pharell. Can you imagine adding Drake? Wow!

Yet another L, the only W I've had was on the cements, apart from I don't actually like them and they're selling under retail. I need to start learning about bots

Nah man you take your L’s with pride. Sneaker head since I was 16. I’ll be turning 36 this year. Father of 3 too. You know how many L’s I’ve taken? LoL HaHaHaHaHaH. Thing is I don’t take as many L’s like I used to. So you copping the AJ1’s Bred Toes? I’m picking up my local pairs in a couple of hours. I’m excited to see these because of the AJ1’s SBB quality comparison.

I'm a UK12, US13

About 160-180% from what I've seen

I have a pair of black cements in US13 for retail plus shipping if anyone wants? Don't really like them myself

Big L up here in Canada too on the bred toe. In store only now. Guess it was a tough cop.

Damm sucks. USA got a bigger release on these. More stores releasing them but with limited inventory. Also finishline and champs will not release these. Only Foot locker and Foot action.

So if I wanted to cop a pair of AJ1’s Bred Toes and flip them, what kind of profit are we looking at?

About $50-100 minus shipping/delivery/platform fees depending upon how you choose to sell

Good to know. Thanks. I’m just getting back into the sneaker game. I might try to grab these, but not sure if I’ll keep ‘em.

The flip game has evolved so much that its not even worth it to just cop 1 and flip one. Between the time to cop and reselling efforts its simply not worth it. I'm copping multiples but not flipping these till 2019. I'll rock one and stash the rest. These are going straight to my storage unit. Tomorrow I have to drop off many pairs. If you can cop and wait 5-6 months to resale that would be better. Between ebay, stock x , goat, local offer up, and dumb re-sellers the market is just too saturated.

Yeah, I can wait 5-6 months to flip. They are sweet looking, so may keep if I end up securing a pair.

I for one would like to see this storage unit. Am guessing it's quite a sight.

Oh yeah. I love AJ1's. Quality on these look like AJ1's SBB's. Regardless AJ1's have good resale history.

Seems like these are going to be easier to cop compared to other AJ1 releases.

Picked up some local pairs already. Trust me quality on these on point. AJ1’s SBB quality for sure. These are a must.

Oh yeah. Champs and Foot action did not release these. Much better shoe in my opinion. Look wise way better and quality even better. Trust me I own AJ1’s SBB and these have that same quality.
