Are deadstock jordan 14's from 1998-1999 still wearable ?
I have a deadstock pair i'm thinking of wearing them 

there in mint condition 

Anyone have any experience wearing a DS new pair of OG 14's ?
 
I would say it would depend on how they were stored. If they were stored in good conditions (i.e. not extreme hot or cold) I think they should be fine. Definitely would not consider doing anything "active" such as ball.
 
i copped a ds pair of white/red about a year ago. they've quickly become a favourite to wear. no dramas yet, and i've worn the about 20 times. just sticky outsole needs an occasional wipe.
 
I just wore my White/Red OG's a few months ago. They seemed just fine.
I also got sick of that sticky midsole though, so back in storage they went.
 
I have both the OG white/reds(worn under 10 times over the years) and they still do fine. Maybe in 2020 Ill bust out the 2012 retros....
 
The "teeth" will separate and the paint will get sticky -apart from that, they are fine for casual wear.
