The desire for Jordan 1 sky rocketed since the Banned and Royals aftermath.

I remember when banned 1s were going for 300 and I thought that was crazy for some 1s especially some that just came out. didn't have to worry about fakes either. lol...

that applies for almost all retro Js in the 2000s
for the CDP besides the 22 it would've help if the 1 was a cw MJ wore or black/red combination like the other retros
banned was the 1st 1 with OG branding after mike retired & people's buying priority have transitioned from having latest Js to having retros MJ wore to og cws then later on to retro+s
in the last few years, that demand feels even Higher because JB made all these OG Hi 1s so limited compare to all the retros
we know in 2001 with lower demand JB released 117,000 pairs of Royal 1s
in 2013 with higher demand/more consumers, the # of Royal 1s JB released is not even a quarter of the amount they released more than a dozen years before

exactly, in 2001 people weren't even worried about retros they were still buying the newest model

yeah although not as bad as 1994 retros from what the super old heads said
i'm guilty as a young kid that the black/red 16s was my most wanted pair of Js in 2001

Yep, the Banned's got people started and the Royal's finished them off.
I missed the ban 1s, if I had missed the royals too I probably woulda shaved my head bald and went hitman

Are these gonna have that contrast stitching crap? I liked the red sail and the green 1s but the stitching kept/keeping me away from those. These will be a pass too if so...(looks like from the pics looking at them on my phone)

Yeah, they need to chill on that contrasting stitching crap, especially on the midsole like on those Gym Red's.

I do not understand why people were saying that they want these with a black tongue, all of the ogs had a white tongue, didn't they? These defiantly are one of my favorite ones.View media item 1054167View media item 1054168

Pet peeve of mine.

As far as the black tongue, I could deal with that change,

But are they gonna have a black tongue, or is that just a rumor?

These are looking better and better. I wonder when they will release? I assume that no date has been confirmed yet. Id like to see some official photos, but i already know I'm gonna buy them. I like this colorway better than the black toes. The breds are still my all time favorite.

Those are the Jordan 1 TEDxPortland "Perfect" pair. 230 pairs were made and only 23 released as part of the TED talk conference. The rest were auctioned off on a TEDxPortland website to support charity.

$1400 is not bad considering how limited they are.
