People say this shoe has no appeal. Its because they want pink, yellow green orange, glow in the dark colored shoes.😅
Book 1 looks exactly like air forces tho thats why nobody likes it its like a cheaper copy of af1s
Took inspiration from? Yes. Cheaper? F@$% no! Where are you getting your AF1s?
@@memezonlylmao.4974 cheaper? 😂
@@memezonlylmao.4974 that’s a dumb statement cause THATS EXACTLY WHY I LIKE IT & copped 2 pairs 💀
@@memezonlylmao.4974af1 is made of patented leather and u think faux fur , sued & jacquard is cheaper than that ? 💀
I have a question. What would you choose between the Ja 1s and the nike freak 4 for outdoor? I have the freak 4s, and I really like them. They lasted me for over a year. I was curious to see which one feels more bouncy and would fit my play style (I'm more into the lighter and athletic guard playstyle). Thanks for your time and all the content you provide for us!
Very comfortable shoe on and off the court. I have 2 pairs and i been wearing my first pair mostly everyday every week. The material, the cushion are super nice. The insoles aren’t bad and the traction is holding up. I only hoop outdoors and usually Nikes last a good few weeks after hooping outdoors. I worn these on dirt, grass, concrete and they still squeak. Solid shoe and they look better worn
Would you please compare traction to solid rubber outsole when a colorway releases with it
Maybe you should start basing your size on cm and see if there's more consistency. I've also found that fit is all over the place regardless of brand (Nike, Adidas, whoever).
"you know what i mean"
he overuses the word pretty dang. All this videos he basically says the same things
Shoes are great casually. Very comfortable all the way around
How's the step in comfort?
How's the cushion holding up? Does it bottom out at all?
I wear them casually. Step in great, you can feel the cushion as you walk. Worn about 10 times, no creasing
Did you also size up for casual wear?
Half size up
Can you use carbon insoles for the book 1?
You're even wearing the same kind of pants DBook is wearing during warmups. Nice.
Shoe has been so amazing! Working on a 39 day wear test review
$140 for the cushion to be heel zoom. I need 2 for it to be $140. Just glad the materials aren't just mesh.
Yeah it sucks why can't they put forefoot zoom too 😅😅😅
Then the tech will be the same as the lebrons
@@80fame24 not quite. Technically yes but not the same thickness. The lebrons are very thick. Just use a normal zoom and not a zoom turbo.
Can anyone let me know how these perform for volleyball? Thanks
What is the sizing like?
Honestly this are 🔥🔥🔥
Is this a mid or low top?
Loves these shoes
what colorway is this?
they look cool, dont know about the cushion as i play outdoors
I'm just here to 🤣🤣🤣 at the comment section when they be like, "Sammy should interact more with his comments section..." 👋😲 👀👀👀🤭
All jokes aside, GREAT VIDEO SAMMY!!
🫵💯👍
I got Achilles blister off the first play in
SOLE, plzz do shoes for guards 2024 video
I want these for a work shoe
I want to grab a pair
Can you do Puma Genetics?
it's like the air force 1 of hoop shoes
Wasnt af1 originally a hoop shoe
@@noobchickensupper6471yes
Count the amount of times bro says “you know”😭
No air unit in forefoot = Dead forefoot.
😭🪦👟 🚬🗿
nah we smoking that cushlon pack, shit is plusher than air
Sabrina 1 or book 1?
Sabrina for me
Right
Book 1 remind me of the Kobe 6
book 1 or ja 1?
Book! Versatility
JA!
I had ja ones and they were nothing special all they had was elite traction but book ones have elite traction and decent cushion so I would say book 1
@Yes24411 all I feel is the cushioning in the JA 1's. It's throughout. I'm a muscular player a 6'2" 230 so the cushion is very good.
Ja easily
These look like if your grandfather had a signature baskeball shoe.
Sammy, please stop talking about how cheap the first signature shoes should be. Who says the first shoes should be cheap and trash? I would rather pay 180-200 for a pair of good shoes, instead of 110 shoes that are actually worth 60 based on the tech specs. Completely waste of time and money. Just like the ja 1s and Tatum 1s.
It's still not good lol😅😅
Ja 1’s the best shoe Nike made for this season
@@youngq11 not jordan 38?
@@Chavanun555nah. That shoe is simply basic 7/10 but there are other shoe there that 9/10 or 10/10 that cost 140 below.
@@Meehhehe such as? I dont see anything that price with full length zoom or front and heel cushion. I would love to get good shoe in that budget
I think sammys foot got bigger
😂 somebody’s uncle everyday shoes 🤣
Kobe’s line used to be $110 back in the day.
Yeahhh I mis 2000's 😢
Different economy
So AE 1 Or book 1?
AE 1 Easy
wait for the ae1 lows, made it lighter & made the cushion better
Best first shoe? Oof. The PG1 set the bar pretty high way back in the day. 👀👟
Bruh, the colorways/ design is so lackluster. I get that its trying to be minimal but... Small of amount of details doesnt mean no details. Its a sig for god's sake
Sammy likes squeaky
Tracsiones!!!!
Lateral containment is 🗑️
That silhouette is giving off payless senior citizen vibes. I can't unsee it.
it's not even close to Kyrie 1 or Freak 1 or PG 1
Looks like something I would wear casually and I am an old head! Just blah-looking. Nothing sets it apart. Just so damn plain. Does nothing... sad.
This is a shoe I wouldn't mind wearing regularly but not to hoop. Has zero appeal to me as a hoop shoe.
I agree with you
I would never wear Nike as a casual shoe (or as a hoop shoe). Straight 🗑️.
@@grahamcarmichael6567 what do you wear and what country are you from? Just curious, not tryna hate on your decision
@@donlimon5429 in the past few years I’ve worn puma, new balance, li-Ning, adidas, under armour for basketball. For running, brooks and asics. For walking, brooks and asics.
Every Nike shoe I’ve worn has been utter 🗑️. Will never buy another Nike shoe again. I’m from the US.
@@donlimon5429 for reference, these are the recent nike shoes I’ve had:
PG 5 - developed a weird lump on the midsole within 2 months, returned under warranty
PG 5 again - fell apart in 2 months
Jordan 36 low - twisted my ankle like 6 times in this shoe, completely unstable. Lacing system was awful. Tossed 🗑️
KD 14 - only shoe that held up but the strap was annoying af and they were narrow, and I twisted my ankle in them.
Lebron 20 - worst traction I’ve ever experienced, slipped and fell like 5 times. Way too narrow and twisted my ankle once. Tossed 🗑️
And no, I don’t usually have ankle problems. Literally never twisted my ankle in any of the other shoes I mentioned, and I’ve recently had over 10 running/basketball shoes from other brands. No ankle issues at all.
Nike uses cheap materials, makes their shoes narrow to save money on materials, and simply doesn’t have well-designed shoes for normal folks (obviously the nba players get souped up and personalized versions).
🗑️ company 🚮 all my Nike shoes went in the dumpster. Will never, ever buy from them again.
looks like sumn my grandma would wear but cool ig
Look like some P-Rods
They just look like shoes 😭😭 great video tho!
That's the point they wanted to make something u can wear casually like the old Jordans
Has horrible durability. Ripped after first use I’m not even kidding
I definitely don't like them for playing, maybe for casual wearing
AE1 is the best first signature shoe in my opinion.
It’s one of the best looking ones.
I will say weight is a slight issue tho
@@donlimon5429weight doesn’t matter bro😭 2 ounces ain’t gonna do shit.
@@Kobean24Exactly. Just get stronger and do plyometrics, squats, calf raises, etc. The key is how well a shoe fits.
i love how you were being so negative about this shoe and all of a sudden your speaking highly for this shoe. lol keep the same energy from the beginning bandwagon
im surprised that these are selling out, since they look like shit. It looks like you have a roshe run on
People buy it because it’s Nike + the player attached to it. Not because it’s actually good. Some people just want to say they have a certain player’s shoe, or they collect them.
Agreed, they look like they don't have structure. Regardless I'll probably cop if they release the Shattered Backboard colorway.
Another 🗑️ shoe from Nike. Consistently churning out overpriced, 🚮 shoes for the masses. Big ups!!
From tatum 2s to this? Nike is trying to make a house with those bricks 🧱🧱🧱
it looks like id get injured pretty fast in these
