    Yea ppl are weird it's literally his shoe a DJ Khaled shoe what did they think he was going to put on it? They should have just copped the Easter 5's and stopped the whining. If you like it cool if you don't move on simple. It's like literally ordering a cheeseburger knowing it's a cheeseburger then getting mad because there's cheese on it smh. Dope shoe imo glad it sat and glad whoever wanted was able to cop.

      I think it’s more about DJ Khaled than the sneakers itself. A lot of adults find DJ Khaled to be cringe so the thought of wearing something associated with him that has one of his known “cringy” catchphrases on the heel made a lot of folks pass.

Folks that just want to rock pairs shouldn’t care about future value, if I think a shoe is trash and it jumps up to 2k in the future it just becomes a trash shoe that’s going for 2k. 💀

    Lol this crimson color definitely gives my wardrobe something interesting to style with 🔥🔥🔥🔥
    Also people said that he ruined it cuz he was promoting it. Yet the same mfkas that’s trying to start a business want everyone to advertise and support them and etc. Khaled did no wrong, it’s just a man who’s happy about his accomplishments, not too many people get to work on sneakers with Jordan Brand. Khaled did his thing and Exceeded. Y’all bitch and complain about how JB gives us the same thing every year in colors but when they do gives us something dope y’all still whine and complain. SMFH 🙄🙄

    Quality looks great but it’s a colorway nobody would care about if it wasn’t a khaled collab, it looks like a GS / women’s exclusive .

    It’s has too much of his personality on it. Which is fine if you’re goofy and like being centre of attention.

    It’s the colors there dope don’t get me wrong they are nice but if they were made with more of an OG color way they would be 🔥🔥🔥

    I actually don’t mind the “we the best” on the heel. Cactus jack is on the back of Travis Scott shoes. I love the sneaker. I think down the road people will kick themselves for not getting it..

    I never went for them, the pastel colors are not my thing. I had other priority drops and it was a great gamble. I hit a 2Ws for the nike Sb Concepts Orange 🦞 dunk on snkrs, and my local Skateshop. Biggest shock😮 for me as no Ws all year on app, not even gr since April. People may come back to Dj Khaled shoe later or summer.
    Imo the volume and need for mass demand for this shoe - colors should have been a bit more neutral. White pair, black pair - a ying Yang pack would have fared better with minimal dabs of shades of Miami colors. The stage haze aj1 is a great example with the laces/ aj1 low with bleached coral. Easily those multi lace colors would have been good on a neutral pair.
    I can’t speak for all but I assume majorly this shoe could do well in USA compared to worldwide. Sneakerheads in USA are braver with colors on sneakers, in Europe its quite toned down and even demand for multi colored sneakers or gr dunks/ sb dunks is quite low as people dress more reserved here and wear neutral or earthy tones more. Lebron lucky charm dunks sitting here and restocked constantly - nobody wants them. Zion williamson Aj1 low sold out. The model design and colors were done right.
    The colors seem akin to those worn at baby showers or a child’s birthday party. Don’t get me wrong it’s a great shoe - if given free retail or below retail I would want it but don’t need it. That’s why it’s a ⏭️
    I would hardly wear this if I got em. I love what was done with all sizing , the shape and seems superior materials used that’s the positive for me. Definitely the we the best logo emblazoned on the heel seems tacky. He is corny yet if the colors and design were great it wouldn’t matter even if stock was high or easily accessible.
    Sneaker game has changed - he has hype but his hype or collabs isn’t close to the level of Travis, a ma Maniere or some other designers. His jump man advert trying to do the Mj pose was super corny too. It was like copy and paste, no originality. Possibly a reference to his awards and record of making hits in an advert would have been a better way to advertise the sneaker.
    The we the best wordmark emblazoned irks me, a logo character better I guess. Nike should have created a special character for him or crest - aj4 wahlburgers was minimal branding and one color different tones.
    Maybe an abbreviation of We The Best would do? But that would be WTB. 😱 (WANT TO BUY ) ?
    Less would have been more - colors and writing. On a side note, Billie eilish has somewhat hype but her Nike collabs are lackluster. These colors were too vibrant just for summer or spring , Billie eilish too bland colors seem depressing and for autumn winter. I doubt her upcoming af1 will do well. I got the hoodies but the materials for the af1 colors and design are uninspiring.
    Furthermore, this was the worst timing for this drop - wrong season and the shoe is up against most hyped drops of the year plus people have heating bills , Christmas presents and priorities to pay for. For now it’s a maybe I might grab it later shoe, let’s deal with other stuff first so easy skip for now. Future wise it may fare slightly better. Another model would have been good too. Af1, Aj1, Aj4, Aj11, dunks gr or sb - the aj5 volume produced I doubt there was that much worldwide demand for model and worse color. The aforementioned I said issues with it I don’t think it will reach sky high values just close some what.
