I have a pair of 1995 concord 11s DS and i was wondering are they still wearable?

Soles probably going to come off and midsole will seperate.Honestly,better selling them while its high value.Rather than selling them when they start to come apart

No probably, you will see major separation. If they had already been worn from the start, they might be okay. Since they are DS, no way in hell should you even try.

glue should break down, if your'e lucky to get a clean break just glue it back

if stored properly use em, when the outsole separates reglue it and you'll be fine.

midsole can be a major problem, check it's texture and condition first

My OG Concord lost it's sole years ago while I was walking down the street one day. RIP.  Hopefully yours lasts a bit longer and you get to enjoy them.

When I had mines the cushion around the sockliner and heel was stiff and hard. The overall comfort is terrible, just wear the retro if you don't already have a pair.

I bought a slightly used pair a few years ago. I still wear them, although the sole is piss yellow, and the white mesh has a tinge of yellow as well. The cushioning is very hard on the OG's, but I guess that is to be expected based on a shoe that is two decades old already. My outsole is still intact, and I have a vnds OG black red XI also, both OG soles are still intact, and haven't separated yet. As mentioned, there is always a very high probability that the soles will eventually detach, but super glue will get the job done.

Overall, I think a DS pair of Concords will be fine. Just be sure to wear them cautiously for awhile, don't do anything silly like play ball and you should be good.
