And that why I hate this generation I know you were joking but let say somewhere serious and someone say something like that they would go ballistic it’s not safe anymore to say stuff like that☹️
I think this clip is sad, it shows how racist America really was, even then. Telling a young man his signature shoe is ugly, and MJ feeling the need to agree. Inside, he was probably proud of shoe but had to bend the knee to white man on TV. Regardless, im proud of him for rocking those "ugly" shoes and helping to change the league and the world in its perception of black people. Now the Jordan 1 is as iconic as any shoe ever made. Really goes to show how stupid and ignorant our usueless opinions can be in the time we share them...
Technically the white outside counts as white in my opinion. I still couldn't believe that the NBA decided to throw them out of the game let alone fined Jordan for wearing them. Makes me wanna buy them so bad which I used to have the 2015 (1985) Air Jordan 1 High the Return until I decided to sell it. Now I want the banned bred ones or even the OG bred high top.
Agree with mike on this one, I have always thought that the bred 1s were ugly, just black and red with no white, never been a fan and never have understood the hype.
@@mohnjarx7801bro that’s David Letterman. Jordan is just going along being a good sportsmanship. It’s a fraud that can’t take jokes. Perhaps LeBron would cry about it on the internet
He literally looks like the shoe in that interview Edit: before i hear any “you’re so racist” bs I’m black myself. I wouldn’t call what I said “racist” especially since it’s a joke about my own kind. This joke is basically like saying the N-word, obviously nobody should be mad I’m saying it because I’m black and the N-word is a slur about MY race. Therefore nobody should be mad I made a joke about MY race..
Bruh you can’t find these shoes anywhere for under $450 it seems. Lol. What has happened to the sneaker game? It’s like a car club now or something no one can enjoy it 😂 that damn shoe ain’t worth more than $100. Air ships were the actual banned shoe. But the public eats up everything so you know
bro says that in 2023 and hes done😅😂
Nooo it's totally acceptable to say something about white people it's every other kinda person that gets you "cancelled" lol

@@bryanthernandez9769 chill crystal
Fr😭😭😭
black people can still be racist to whites
He said he didn’t like the color 😂 even though he didn’t like them. They’ve come a far way!
What the fuck are you trying to say
What?

@@TheGoatLockerhow much mental gymnastics did you have to do to come to that conclusion?😂
@@FootSauce89 none, I just watched the clip. You are free to share your own perspective and opinion on it though..
He was working up the courage to say that😂
He thought of it on the spot
… no he wasn’t. Cuz he’s fucking letterman and also back then, you don’t get cancelled needlessly for shit like that
@@fionnbarrcasey5247 do you speak any other languages besides facts
Comedic timing is important
Sneaker heads crying after seeing this man throw a pair of the original banned air jordan 1
Back when those jokes slide
You can tell the quality leather on those shoes just by how he’s holding them en pressing on them l’m in love I swear
those joints worth more than a car now
What joints you mean
Like weed cost more than a car now 🤨
I would like to buy a few joints
@@andyjosephli2964 saying “those joints” is just slang, has nothing to do with weed
whos smoking a joint?
The shoe he threw worth 2 million. 😂
That ain’t tru
Not true
not yet
Maybe that's the fake one
@@Issa._.arison..222 prob not
My fav colorway of any Jordan lol
Bruh those shoes are not even ugly
exactly.
This was like the 80s
He can say what he wants Micheal probably just joking
Those colors weren’t as hip back in the 80s as they are now. Culture back then was more into brighter colors.
Bro looks Sub-Saharan African
Because he is
Shiid, them shoes clean as hell.
neither does the NBA💀💀💀
Frrrr
Lil bro forgot larry bird
Tbh the shoe is amazing and looks cool
Bro was brainstorming jokes💀😭🙏🗣️🔥
The GOAT didnt know back then... Js best shoes ever.
Really didn't
Now its expensive
Me cringing as he throws some OG 1s over his shoulder 😂
It weren’t OG’s at that time
@@knathanknathan Still a work of art.
@davidparker4943 they're just shoes made by an underpaid child in china
The color is fire 🔥
Aye, dawg the breds my no.1 favorite tho😂
Now that shoe costs a fortune
Breds are one of my favorites of all time
You dont need white
OK who asked
@@shido_rimru_yo mum
The nba needs white tho
@@Celuta96 no it doesnt. its holdin up just fine like American football. yall ain always gotta be a part of stuff

“They are ugly”
Mr no drip don’t know what he’s talking about.
You’re goddamn right
😬
The glass shattering at the end tho😂😂
Dam bro posted this on my birthday
Nah Just umderstand the swagger back then. It was very NEW. No body knew How Iconic that shoe would become
NBA colors truly show here no matter how long that was ago.
They added the white and the chicago was born
They do have white on them and i think they r a badass looking shoe.
Lmaoooo Nike really prides themselves in shoes Jordan didn’t even fw
He just didn’t like this color way
@@mjdagoat5440 JB been pushing 2’s lately. MJ hated that whole silhouette
@@GAVINNNNNNNNN they only pushing them bc Jordan 1s are overdone too many color ways they need other shoes to sell
He loves the 1 just not this color way listen better bud
@@mjdagoat5440he didn’t like it because his pockets started to take a hit
He lookin like the patent breds
Ironic. Shoe is the highest sold to date. 🤷♂️🙌🏻

Breds look nice tho
Now they do, back then the style was either mainly black or mainly white
To each there own
THEY DEFINITELY HAD WHITE IN EM I LOVE JORDAN
I think what they mean is not enough white. It should be 50% white iirc
No these have no white in the uppers
I most have watched this video a 💯 time I can get over it those shoes are so beautiful and iconic now loll 😂😂
Take that sneaker hypes
man that do went for that
The bottom has white
Good jokes😂😂👌
That shoe is worth millions if it’s still around
It’s not. GR 1985 pairs are worth a few thousand bucks if used. Brand new they’d fetch for about $20k.
jordan be giving the white man credit
The hook joke funny asf ngl
I just bought my son a pair of those gems!!!
I bought them today and they were sooooo freaking hard to find
it was ahead of its time
Mj is known for having zero drip
Yeah because he’s a wannabe fancy pants
The color of MJ's outfit were made into the AJ 1 Highs known as "The Letterman's" I have a pair and they are very, very uncomfortable.
😂
N.E.V.E.R. U.G.L.Y . Those are the Classics!!! He didn't even Realize!!!
Did they plan these skits? Or was it improv?
OUTTA POCKET
Well said David😁👍😄
It's crazy to hear him say he didn't like the Chicago colorway and that's the colorway and shoe that started the jordan brand history
He looks like a prisoner
Bc he was
Why's he being so disrespectful to Jordan
Agree with mike on this one, I have always thought that the bred 1s were ugly, just black and red with no white, never been a fan and never have understood the hype.
Global goat will never be another MJ
Reading the comments are the best part 😂
Jordan 1 is my favorite shoe. I bet he only said that to joke around. Best Jordan's to me.
The midsole has left the chat
I own some of those in my opinion they’re fire
Trashed his product in front of him and he joins in 🤔
Back when they knew their place
@@mohnjarx7801bro that’s David Letterman. Jordan is just going along being a good sportsmanship. It’s a fraud that can’t take jokes. Perhaps LeBron would cry about it on the internet
He’s not a sensitive crybaby and he doesn’t have feminine tendencies, you want me to act out and start crying about it?
He helped design the Jordan 1 but not the color
that's literally what he said
He didn’t design it either. It was designed by Peter Moore.
“Of course we can’t show “ them proceeds to give a perfect example of what they banned
Shaquille hits something so close to three but can't hit them
MJ was a yes man
You obviously never heard a single story about Michael Jordan
I agree lol that’s why the chicago ones are better
lol mj looks like he’s thinking, “oh man, I KNOW what’s behind the door I just opened…”
Jordan didn't like the color but......
He was wearing it🤔
He loved it 😅
If he only knew what the fans and customers bout to do
Mike was a good boy and went along with the agenda.
Sold his btch ass soul😂
He was joking calm down sheep

You sure it was the shoes Mike. Not the reflection of your vinyl?
These shoes are Very Well Sought Afrer and will command a high price for a genuine mint condition original from the year 1985
The fact that the host can accept it and play along and everyone else is laughing shows it was acceptable
They are not ugly
I actually have those jordans
david letterman the best host ever lol
Jordan didn’t design them
I'll start Kung fu Panda
Awwwwwwww hell naw thats when the music stops
Shoes iconic even today’s generation go bonkers over these shoes
How much that exact shoe worth

Ain't no way
Nah
Jordan 1 N… colorway
Nah…..
Nah that's crazy...
Them:realize that this shoe is a $1000
My born year
Insane to think that 35 years ago Jordan 1s were ugly
It was a joke
When you watch the movie “ Air “ you may look at this clip from a different perspective
Oh nah 💀
That same exact pair he had in his hand right there would probably be worth about a million dollars or more if it still existed
NBA: nice shoes mike!
MJ: i dont like it, its ugly.
NBA: no problem! dont wear it, we'll ban it.
🔥
Jordan took that personally, now he's got a billion dollar shoe empire! jk jk... Jordan had no clue what phenomena his shoes were going to do!
It's true tho, a little white would've made all the difference. The contrast would have been insane❤
I thought he said the shoe color is ugly why don't he just throw the colour but he throw the whole shoe☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️

LMFAO
That shoe now is worth like 20 grand
GOO GA GA
Michael it's ok to disagree with the white man...
This shows you little they cared about style.
