In addition to pastoring and writing, I have a passion for Michael Jordan sneakers and Michael Jordan sneaker history. These are some of the shoes in my collection. For the story and explanation for where my passion for Air Jordan's comes from you can read this post here.

View fullsize Fleece lining. Weather-resistant materials. Atypical Air Jordan colorway. I look forward to “beating these up,” and enjoying these for many years to come! #vintagenike #nikevintage #originalnike #nikeoriginal #ognike #nikeog #ogsupportgr
View fullsize One of the great things about this pair being a mass produced GR was being able to walk into a Foot Locker at 8pm on the day of release and still pick up a pair! I tried them on, put the shoes I walked in with in the box, paid, and walked out the sto
View fullsize Unlike the Kaws, these IV’s are a GR and sell for way below retail, but I love em’ anyways! I typically stick to OG Colorways, but these “Poor Man’s Eminem Encore’s” are right up my alley! #vintagenike #nikevintag
View fullsize Definitely don’t ever see myself un’dsing these though. I don’t collect art, but these would be the closest thing. Hope they see another jump in value soon! #vintagenike #nikevintage #originalnike #nikeoriginal #ognike #nikeog #ogs
View fullsize Absolutely love the details on these. Quality suede. Kaws branded stitching Glow in the dark bottoms. Leather lining. Super grateful to have these in the collection. #vintagenike #nikevintage #originalnike #nikeoriginal #ognike #nikeog #ogsupportgro
View fullsize Did a big trade for these at @solesupremacy in October of 2018. Traded $1400 worth of kicks. Today these are valued at anywhere between $1750-$2000. Unfortunately, the Travis Scott IV’s were in that trade. At the time I only got $325 in trade v
View fullsize The only disappointment I had with purchasing these is because the picture on the @goat app had the red tag WITH the Levi’s branding, I was pretty surprised when mine was BLANK! Especially because the blank tags go for a bit less. Once again, o
View fullsize Because these are all black with a gum bottom, made of jean material, and because they aren’t going for very much over retail, it has been nice to just wear them and not have to worry about the creasing or decreasing tremendously in value! Defi
View fullsize Air Jordan IV “LEVI’S” (Black Denim) - Wasn’t able to pick these up for retail, but copped them off of @goat for $325. It’s been unfortunate to see these be re-released on the SNKRS app and go down in value, but...oh wel
View fullsize It’s a shame these don’t seem to be holding their value very well. If I don’t hold onto them, I’m thinking of trading them for either Grey KAWS IV’s or Black LEVI’S VI’s and paying the difference in cash. #vi
View fullsize Though I’m not the biggest fan of this colorway and honestly don’t know too much about Travis Scott, there’s something obtaining limited Air Jordan IV collaborations that has me considering holding onto this pair! #vintagenike #nike
View fullsize Air Jordan IV “Travis Scott’s” - Fortunate to pick these up off of SNKRS on release day for the retail price of $225. Thanks to @j23app, when the app crashed, I was able to use the mobile link he provided on Twitter to get my pair!
View fullsize Though I don’t see myself wearing these anytime soon, I hesitate to let them go because the details on them are quality! The denim. The hang tag. The gun sole. The Levi’s tag. A great addition to any Jordan collection, especially for reta
View fullsize These are a pair of Jordan’s, like the KAWS IV’s, that I hesitate to un-DS. One because the value of the shoe will drop instantly and two because I don’t really know what to wear these with! #vintagenike #nikevintage #originalnike #
View fullsize Air Jordan IV “LEVIS” - Originally released on January 17, 2018 for $225. After vowing to “take a break” from buying Jordan’s in 2018, less than one month into the year, I broke my vow! My brother @epazitive said he had
View fullsize Something about wearing these and messing up those fresh soles is nerve-racking! Maybe I just need to find myself another pair....... #vintagenike #nikevintage #originalnike #nikeoriginal #ognike #nikeog #ogsupportgroup #igsneakercommunity #kicksonfi
View fullsize I’m thinking of un-DS’ing them for Easter Sunday, but am nervous! Haha! I’d love for you to COMMENT BELOW on the time and place when you justify un-DS’ing expensive kicks! #vintagenike #nikevintage #originalnike #nikeoriginal
View fullsize Air Jordan KAWS IV “Black/Black” - Released on November 27, 2017 for $350. These were my last pickup of 2017, and I got them for $850 from the good folks over at the @prstg_shop! I traded in about $600+ of GR J’s and paid the differ
