i'm not paying 400 for the 2017 pair nor waiting another 5 years for a leather pair. Suede royal 1s will do

Royal 1s are my favorite sneaker of all time. I have the 2017 pair… The reimagined are a great rendition

I’m gonna be honest I like the look of this one better than the original because the color pops more but only thing I’m worried about is since it’s suede I feel it’ll be hard to clean

If you're ok with buying used, I just copped some 2017 royal 1s in very decent shape for 80 euros on Vinted!

This sneaker is smoking. I'm glad I'll be able to grab a pair for retail. Love the suede myself. Can't wait to wear them.

comical how ppl are mad about a shoe being COMPLETELY different when its called REIMAGINED LOL. RETRO and REIMAGINED is different. If you don't like it for what it is thats one thing but to say its too different is wild. I love this shoe, actually my favorite jordan 1 in a while. I think ppl with both (these and OG) can appreciate them more cause we don't have remorse from selling or missing OG's appreciation for shoes change. Just like snipe didn't appreciate OG and let em go. PPL will appreciate these later!

It’s called reimagined NOT lost and found! I think if JB executed in the ways sneakerheads would like the game would indeed be too predictable and rather boring.. if it’s reimagining silhouettes then each one shall differ than one another but to copy and paste colorways based off what’s successful is trash and not innovative at all. This is such a great sneaker and perfect executed

The fact that these are all suede is a$$ man. They needed to keep the aged theme of the "reimagined" retros and just keep that going. It worked out PERFECTLY for the 1s and 3s. If these were all leather like the original but had maybe a sail midsole, come cracked leather here and there and some purple laces. These would fly off the shelves and would have high resale potential but no they will sit because like I said....they're a$$.

I Agree with you this keeps it fresh and not lazy. But Obviously this isn't what consumers wanted. They want the "lazy" copy and paste model where they slap an aged midsole on every og colorway. That's what will sell so that's what they should of done.

Best visuals brotha, thanks!

If these was going for $300 plus these sneaker youtubers n hypebeast would be doing backflips n screaming to the top of their lungs for these they would cut off their left arm for a pair but since the resale is going for almost retail they bashing these

I mean, I like them… but if I had to rank them, I’d probably start here 1. Lost and Found Chicago. 2. White cement three reimagined. 3. Reimagined Royals. 4. People say that patent bred 1s what is the start of this, between me and you I don’t know, but if they were those are the worst so that we ranked as the worst, and if they’re not, therestill trash in my opinion. I really do not want a pair of these until I saw them in hand and saw how good quality and how vibrant the actual royal blue is on these. Maybe in time people will appreciate them but to tell you the truth I don’t care what people think so I’m gonna cop.

I completely understand that

Hi sniper Jones. Big shout out from London 🇬🇧 U.K. hope you and your family are all good. God bless

Aye Juan. I’m thinking these gonna POP after a couple of cleans/aging once those edges start turning white/ light grey !

I appreciate you keeping it 💯 I’m passing I have the OG so I’m Gucci on these

These are 🔥🔥🔥I got em from exclusive access and got many compliments

It not an OG. It a reimagined retro of an OG. They are super clean. I have them and my son has them already. His are under the Tree. The materials are great! The suede is proper. Yea the blue isn't as high-quality suede as the blk. They're not supposed to be exactly like the original hence the name, rei magined. Everybody 4gets that. Just by what you like. Point blank!!💯 If you want OGs then buy the OGs. But if you want the reimagined royals then here they are! Stop following the hype beasts 💯💯💯

Those joints nice gives the shoe a more luxurious appearance jack better believe that the leather is good I feel like I’m getting my grown man on

I copped for the family and myself. These are very nice!

Definitely respect your opinion and I’d probably feel the same way if I didn’t still have my OG Royal, but I’m fine with these. Definitely worthy of my collection. I actually wish they were patent leather though to duo with the Patent Breds. Oh well.

I appreciate what they did with this sneaker, but the suede is not for me personally. Like you said, I’ll just wait and grab another release. I’m from the Bay Area and not a lot of blue is worn here anyway😅

🔥 🔥

All I can say is Royals 🔥🔥🔥 plus i love suede... I lowkey like these better than the OGs and we don't want no aged 🤬🤣

Not a fan of PL jordan 1s but this reimagined jordan 1 is 🔥...like the leather og but I already copped this sneaker wks ago off unbreakable kicks and I already wore it....Def a fire sneak...much respect tho bro

Alright, snipe! Time to get back in the gym!!👀👀😳🤔

Slept on, glad I got em below retail! 😎

That blue is fire ima double up 100%

Love the OG's that came out in 2017 and the Jordan 1 High Dark Marina Blue over these.

Waite the jordan 1 and 3s I thought was called lost and found that’s why you get the yellow aging on the mid sole and the cracked leather.

It was a meme yrs ago with Jordan and someone laughing and the quote was something along the lines of people paying money just to keep getting the same shoe…I guess it true. I actually appreciate the change in material, something fresh, different. I’m not knocking anyone who just wants the same shoe every time, it’s your bread but it’s really nice to have some kind of change when the prices keep going up on the same shoe every year or few years! They also need to put in the card board toe stays instead of that tissue paper, charging 10 dollars more every year and putting less in the boxes ain’t it…ijs!

Complain. Complain. Complain 😂

Y’all can have the glitter leather 17s, I’ll keep the suedes🔥💯

Exactly! This a COMPLETELY different shoe . Honestly Nike dropped the ball wit these imo they shoulda just done it like the L&F . They goin under retail right now I’m very curious to see if they drop even more after release 🤔

I think they're fire

I give them a solid 7 out of 10 clean colorway the problem is when you take a iconic colorway and totally change the material people especially OG sneakerheads are gonna trip out.

Yes they did. Jordan brand really dropped the ball on these royals and the satin Breds. They just need to give 85 cuts of the OGs already

I think different is good!!! I’m tired of the same stuff all the time

Great video. Thanks for your take. To reimagine this the same as all the others...would've been lazy. Like it or love it, it's pushing innovation. Even tho you dont like it, you respect the approach. - salute

I GOTTA AGREE WITH YOU SNIPE, I'LL PASS ON THESE AND JUST GRAB THE 2017S! THEY'RE OK BUT I'D RATHER PUT THAT $200 TOWARDS THE OGS💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Comfortable I doubled up wear a pair stock a pair I like them definitely sleepers.

This shoe is 🔥 I hope they sit so I can get a pair.

Y’all need to stop whining & complaining. If you don’t like em just don’t buy em. It’s not leather get over it & stop crying like little girls 🤷🏾‍♂️

Coma sleep on these...

They not even suede all over. The blue is the same material on the Hyper Royals

I love my pair. I went out to have some drinks and had everybody looking down at my feet. Beautiful shoe In person. The camera doesn’t capture the true color on any of these videos.

Newheads only want OG, but they never mention that they want 85 cuts. Doesn’t surprise me either that you completely forgot that the previous Air Jordan 1 Royal came out in 2017.

Should kept leather and did em like the lost and found 1s

I'll cop... With a discount code, etc.

I love them. I feel a lot of people qho don't lie them are constantly comparing them to the OH Royals.

Why pay $180 + for a Jordan 1 that has the same crappy leather that the Mids and Lows have? This shoe is Fire you get good materials and a new look instead of the same shoe every 4-5 years switching it up is vital plus I only paid $150 for mine .

Nah it should’ve been the same as lost n founds bro. Everything u just described down to the aged sole and crackling of the leather/collar.. Even patent leather would have been better like they did the blk and red pair but these are not bad…

Age midsole make it leather and give it black an alternate royal laces but the royal laces look aged like the OG’s

Snipe - save your money and cop the chris paul jordan 1 lows!!!!

They too hard 🔥 suede Jordan 1s is just not the hype yet

I paid the ticket two weeks ago and bought the leather 2017 Royal 1 rather than put my bread into this Reimagined suede joint.

Smart move

For me it’s material and price, too expensive and I won’t get enough wear . I have obsidians, royal toe, marina blue, Unc toe, it’s a maybe not necessary for me. It may be good but not great. This won’t age well . If they came in leather I am good. I will wait even if it’s 1 or 2 years eventually leather will be rereleased. There isn’t enough colours on 🎨 for Nike to keep releasing new colours so it’s bound to come soon. For newbies or those without blue aj1 maybe. Pass for me

I got 2 pairs. And I love them. Please remember, buy what YOU like. Not what the influencers think you should buy to resell.. boooooo Y’all youngins have ruined the fun in this individualistic expression

I just can’t roll with these I’m sad it’s nothing like the actual Royal. These remind me of pajamas bro idk why they look like a shoe from a toy store lol

If it was just like the original what would be reimagined about it?

These are a super drop, we can't let Nike get away with ruining classics like this.👎🏾

Easy pass only bc the blue is off and way lighter. If its was a darker blue would of easily copped

Imma OG cat as well I want the OG cost a bit but it’s ok I’ll sell some others too make the price better to cop

Yall Be just so weird if this was a Travis scott you'd love patent leather and suede shoes

The reason why these shoes aren’t doing as well is because they should’ve did the same what they did with the Chicago’s this reimagined it makes no sense

Solid shoe, not for me tho need the OGs

I have the royals in leather and in the suede.. I am content with both.

Snip you Dates all wrong... Do you research before you do these videos 2017

APPRECIATE U BRUH THESE TRASH 2 ME... DEFF RUNIED THE REIMAGINE IMAGE 4ME...They need to do a reimagine bred 1....and make it like the Chicago 1 lost n founds...but that BRED COLOR WAYYYYYY!!!! OOOWWWEEEEEEE....

And another thing they look better then the Travis Scott ones but ok

It’s call reimagined for a reason

Yall want them to keep releasing the exact same sneakers….. like getting something different…… dont buy sneakers if you have to wear them everyday and drag them….

Its heresy

Royals and satin Breds sitting. All i gotta say is .2023 is one of the worst years for Jordan 1s.Mext time around pleeez JB think twice before doing smth stewbid... pay attention to the materials more than anything. yikes

Someone tell this clown the definition of “reimagine” 😂😂😂

Everyone all in their feelings because they can't make money on it lol... Trust me, if these were reselling well, we would be seeing a different narrative. .. your opinion is your own, but most people loving this shoe

Jordan Brand love keeping my money in my pocket. 12 cherries its a nope for me, thses 1s are anope for me. These royals are not IT! This.materials are a big NOGO, Glad i got the Dia's last week, they shot all over these in materials and quality!

LOL! I'm not going to get a shoe...because I want the hyped shoe...because I couldn't get the Hyped shoe. Social Media Clout at its finest. Another not Sneaker Head...a Clout Shoe Chaser. ~SMH The Shoe Game is so Sad ~SMH
