Reebok is an incredibly underrated brand
They are the only brand would probably go with, yes they are excellent
Man these old school high-top white leather basketball shoes will always be my favorite type of sneakers. And why I roll my eyes at the current basketball kicks (aesthetically) I NEED another “Billy Hoyle” Command Force retro asap!
Yes, we need the Command Forces! I want to play Fakin’ The Funk by Main Source while wearing them!
Plenty command forces on Ebay and such like.
It's the force 180s that I want nike to bring back.
@@TheRetroManRandySavage those things are 9 years old. I don’t really trust them to last long
@@gatesofwrestling you'll get year's out of them yet buddy.
I'm still rocking nikes and J's from the mid 2000s.
Grab a decent used pair.
Atleast you'll know they will last longer that a DS pair.👍
I’ve got 2 pairs of those Command Force and they are so damn awesome man! I really love these Reebok pumps they’re bringing out again too. Early 90s basketball kicks were so good, they just had so much character and I love the colours
Yes, please, on the hybrids. And we are not bitching about the hybrids because the classic releases are so few and far between we are ok with anything that gives the 80s and 90s vibes. When we get spoiled for choice then we all start whining.
Please do the Shaq Hybrid Pumps!!! Reebok is my favorite brand and I rewatch your Question/Answer reviews all the time! Hope you do more Reebok Question reviews because that’s my favorite model and I’ve watched you review them forever. Also love Jodi’s commentary even though she hated on them lol. Keep up the good work y’all!
I was really hyped when I first saw these and doubled up right away. This shoe comes really close to my imaginary, non existing dream basketball sneaker. I'll wear them until they fall apart.
These are cool, it's good to see Reebok trying to get back to their roots. I still have a couple of pairs from the Pump line, including an old inflator from the Insta Pump series. Thanks for another entertaining video from Weartesters.
The one Reebok that I really wish they'd retro/release is the DMX Lite running shoe from 1999. Hands down the most comfortable shoe I've ever owned.
I’ve just received these. They are without a doubt the most comfortable high tops I’ve ever owned!
The shaqs turned out great!! Would love a video of them! Specially because the materials look great in that shoe!
Reebok also brought back The Blast alongside these; would love to see a video on those too!
As a UK-based sneakerhead, I feel like I might be one of the few British people who appreciates both of these!
On first sight I thought something looked off... the ERS bubble was missing on the heel of the outsole!!! If they ever release the OG twilight zone in the white/neon yellow-green (almost like volt) with ERS I would definitely grab them. Yes, the OGs had the bladder around the entire foot, I wore these in grade 9 in my first year of varsity HS basketball.
I got them from the 2012 release
Please review the Shaq hybrids. You’re the only ones that properly review Reeboks and always my deciding factor when I’m on the fence about anything
I second this! 😊
Part of me wants to pick these up, part of me doesn’t. I like what reeboks have been doing with retros as far as quality, but I’m just in the middle about these. Still a great looking shoe, great review and like that you pointed out the difference in leather on the shoe
Man I picked these up and they look so good and they’re very comfortable to wear. Definitely glad I got them
I have it, i love it!!! The Materials are so great! They need to bring back the blacktop line!!
Been & always be a Reebok guy. Love that you reviewed them. Brings back GREAT memories. Do more reviews of Reebok when you get a chance. Thanks
I thought these looked awesome! Glad to see a review, I think these are just beautiful, something about really high shoes that I love as a sneaker head. I'm waiting for the question pumps to go on sell because those are super under the radar awesome also 🙌 and it'd be pretty cool so see a review on the blast, I'd love to see the history and your opinion on it also
Reebok need to bring back the Pump Blacktop series ASAP!
Reebok is very underappreciated but I honestly do wish they did true justice on their archives with their Reebok Pump retros bringback ERS & Hexalite
Very classic just bought another pair of these had them in the 90s definitely nostalgic feels great on the foot quality leather not bulky I love them so I own omni zone now have these back as well I'm old school so the high top version doesn't bother me I also own the nike command force n those are very high I'm glad these came back thank you humbly wear tester for reviewing them I rock with y'all keep the vids coming my brother
Those are fire! 🔥🔥🔥... I just got the Reebok Blast Re-Release yesterday, Van Exels sneakers. It is gonna take some effort on my part and yours to convince the old lady I need these so soon after that $150 pocket check. Reebok needs to Re-Release some of their Eastbay Legends... The Reebok ATR Talking Crazy, the Reebok ES 22, the Reebok ATR Lock It Up, the Reebok ATR Pump Fly, the
Reebok Preseason: The Big Hurt, the
Reebok Burn & Run (Herman Moore), the Reebok Hostile Mid, Reebok Slingshot Dura, the Reebok Electrolyte 97, Reebok Preacher Mid, the Reebok Triple Deuce Mid, the Reebok Floorshow Mid, Reebok Icepick Mid, the
Reebok Buty Riano (unreleased)
Why they don't look at Eastbay magazines and see those 90s sneakers were fire and would do crazy numbers if promoted... Reebok, it's like the company has amnesia and forgot they were the top sneaker company during the 80s and a chunk of the 90s cause they didn't back down in design and advertising. I want the old Reebok back
Bok Boyz, shout to Full Size Run, brought me here. We need more Reebok and New Balance reviews 🔥
Top shelf kicks is the realest sneaker store on CZcams and my dream store to visit
I can't wait until the Reebok Pump Court Victory (citron/green). The Michael Changs were 🔥🔥🔥
96 yilinda unirsite takiminda oynarken giymiştim hic sakatlanma dan cok uzun yillar giydim gecen gun sporthing magazadinda bir cift gorunce cok sevindim hemen aldim neon yeşil.. Reebok in 28 yil sonra hala beni sevindirmesi cok iyi, 20 yaşında oğlum cok şaşırdı o yillarda ki teknolojiye pump it up şarkısını söyledik beraber
I completely agree with you on real Hexalite. I have the same feelings about React Juice and Fila 2A and adidas FYW, etc. its just not the same w/o it. it sucks that theres no incentive for any of these companies to bring back retro tech in real form. its a ton of added cost for a VERY niche customer base that knows the difference. every time a retro is released it makes me a little sad. I miss the days of incredible leather, suede, nubuck etc on all the kicks. late 80s and 90s was unmatched. every company was competing so hard with tech and materials to drool over. I know its never coming back but dang that stuff was amazing. it really was a different experience even picking up a shoe off the shelf and feeling the textures and the smell of the leather.
obviously they cant do it anymore bc global demand is too high and its way cheaper to use synthetics/PU coated leathers for consistency. also the shoes would probably cost $300-400 for that level of material quality and innovation. I never had more than one new pair at a given time and could never get the most expensive models, but the pairs I did have were amazing and unforgettable.
Always thought the pumps were some of the coolest shoes
I owned a pair of reebok blacktop pumps in the early 90s alongside my original Jordan 6 Bordeaux, and I really want them to do a retro of the blacktops
Yes!
I still have a few pair's of the blacktop from when they brought it back in 2004.
There's no difference between the retro and the OG. They were still using the same pump mechanisms in 04 and it was real hexalite too.
Love the Reebok content. Keep up the good work brother. I was pleased to be able to find that you did this review.
Oh snap! This is what I’ve been waiting for as a Reebok die hard. Fyi Bok is releasing the OG cherry colorway soon and theres a hemp version if these on Champs right now. I actually ordered the hemp model out of curiosity, should be in tomorrow.
Take me back to the summer of 1990!!!!
These look amazing. Reebok is about to get wild again. We need all Shaqs back!!
Im here not cuz im a reebok fan, but a weartesters fan.
I remember that original leaflet in the box back in 1991!! With the bright Yellow Twilight Zones in the front. I had the Omni Zone ones in the back of the picture with the purple eye stays. I remember being gutted when the polyurethane midsoles turned to dust ☹☹
Well that’s unexpected. Really cool that they did a hybrid…..totally didn’t catch that till you mentioned it.
I bought two pairs when they released. Twilight Zone pumps are amazing.
Ich würde gerne mehr von dem Zeug sehen!!! Ende der 80iger bis Ende 90iger (frühe 2000er) war die Qualität on top!!! Auch wenn früher alles aus top Materialien bestand ist reebok noch am nächsten dran!! Werd wohl wieder auf REEBOK switchen- WIE ALLES BEGANN 🤣(für mich zumindest). Anfang der 90igern hab ich nur gehört - hast du schon die neuen PUMP gesehen🤪. Der Duft der neuen sneaker hat mich gleich gehabt - heute riecht man was man bekommt - in den meisten Fällen GAR NICHTS - zumindest nicht viel im Vergleich zur Primetime ✌️
The originals came out when I was in 5th grade and the ERS was so interesting to me. I know it was a reaction to Nike and visible air so I was like.... what is that thing? how does it work? what is it made up of? Ended up getting the Bo Jacksons that year for school.
Had same pair in grade 5 aswell
I'm 44 years old. I had the original Reebok Reverse Jams (2 pairs), Blacktops, Kamikaze II, Reebok hikers with Hexalite, all from back in the 90's and Hexalite was always trash. It would come apart inside the shoe, it would seperate from the upper and lower clear plastic membrane, it was too thin to ever provide any real cushioning. The best would have to have been the Kamikaze II's as they made Ultra Hexalite at that time and moved it from the very bottom of the sole where it did no good at all to directly under the heel where it provided some squish. It also had forefoot hexalite in it but that seperated inside the shoe. I would dissect my shoes back in the day (like most idiots back then) to see what the technology was like. Excluding the Kamikaze II's the hexalite was always this tiny square that didn't even cover the majority of the heel. The Kamikaze II's provided a rather large square which covered more area. All in all I was always disappointed with Hexalite it was pure propaganda and when it was out of the shoe you couldn't even tell it was gone (excluding the Kamikaze II's again). Just my own personal experience having grown up with Hexalite and having several pairs over the years. The pump was great though!
Awesome review Chris and I hope you do more Reebok reviews. Definitely do a review on those hybrid Shaq’s! I heard the materials are insane!Nothing screams early 90s more than Reebok pumps man! I bought these as soon as I saw them and I’m so glad I did. I actually bought a pair of the Twilight Zones in the black, paprika and white years ago and a pair of the blacktops! Considering 80s/90s retro stuff is popular I’m not sure why peeps are sleeping a bit on Pumps. I feel if Reebok actually got a bit aggressive again with their marketing they would probably do quite well….. maybe Adidas owning them has something to do with it. Oh and Forum highs all day too!
Adidas sold them last year to an investment group, partly owned by Shaq. So, hopefully...🤞 they get back into basketball. In my opinion, they could use updated cushioning on the classics like the pumps. Floatride on a Twilight or Blacktop pump 🤔. Would be good to start
@@WhathehadasSole ohhhh I did not know that! Thanks for the update! I’m actually excited that Shaq is the part owner. Hopefully they push more of the retro stuff and even release some old late 80s/early 90s tee designs.
I'm REALLY hoping that Reebok retroes the Court Victory's. Seeing as they made that Shaq x Court Vic hybrid.
0:35 yes! Do a review on it. 🙌🏼
A big yes on the Hybrids.
1990. These made me care about shoes in general. Wouldn't even dare asking parents to buy them back then.. I think I'll buy these.
I'm thinking about the Question pump hybrid. I think they look great!
I was close to buying this but thanks for reminding me to not settle for anything less than a reproduction of the OG. Great content!
Yo, what about doing a review on the Question Pumps, now that would be a dope review!!
As someone who doesn't wear high tops casually anymore, it makes me sad to know I shouldn't buy these. These look awesome!
Please do a vid on the Shaq Attaq Victory Pump!
love your channel man. love that ur a 90s sneakerhead. those pumps look sick, even though theyre not 100% OG …
They look cool but the tongue looks too small, no ERS and the midsoles look aged which I'm not a fan of. Quality of the leather on the recent releases has been pretty nice imo. The leather on the new Iverson pumps looks nice too, hope to see a review from you guys. Thanks for the video, The Pump was my shoe in the '90s and it's pretty rad seeing em back in action with quality releases, just keep em OG, pleeeease Reebok.
Yes please in the hybrids! I’m a fan of any pump since I got my first Dee Browns back in the late 80’s!
I like them. Sold my white omni pumps, instantly regretted it.
I was hoping they would’ve kept it to the Og, I still rock my 09’ they are built like tanks.
🔥🔥🔥
🔥 🏀 🔥
Grey laces would look clean in these
These remind me of the Zack Morris Converse Hi-Tops.
All you need is the Zack Morris phone and your set lol
My dream shoe back then until now..never got the chance to have them...
Love my pair. The White/Electric Red are coming soon. I can not wait for that colorway
I hope to see more pumps, such a classic that is just getting slept on.
The Reebok site has had some terrible colorway selection for Omnizone 2's, idk if it's changed but they had two white/blue/red models, just that one also hard orange accents... Then they add this really cool and 90's looking but kinda niche one with like gray, purple and teal, I appreciate that but where the hell are the basics?
As a Reebok fan, the only thing stopping me buying any of these pump shoes is that they aren't doing the bottom like the original. It needs to all pump up!!
Chris, as a huge Reebok pump fan I'm pretty furious that they've done away with the ers.
I was hoping for a true to OG with the correct height, full foot air bladder and hytrel tubes.
I've been buying pumps for 33 year's and it has been infuriating to see the decline of Reebok over the year's.
The retros from that early to mid 2000s period are probably the best we'll ever get.
I agree. It's been disheartening to see Reebok getting left out of things but the internet and the media outlets that take paid promo over actual sneaker content have rewritten history to make Nike and Jordan seem like they've always been the cool kids rather than the underdog that had to go head to head with the giants like Reebok and adidas. Then the sale to adidas didn't do them any favors. But I'm hopeful that given some time we see them fix the issues in the same way we see Jordan Brand doing it. They just need someone that can balance passion, integrity with business logistics.
@@WearTesters yeah, I always thought Adidas buying Reebok was a bad idea. I'm guessing they put the squeeze on them after the financial crisis of 08.
I noticed a sharp decline in Reebok during that 08/09 period. That's when they stopped using real hexalite and when they started using inferior pump mechanisms/bladders.
I'm really not happy about them getting rid of the ers in the new twilight zone's.
Even if it wasn't real hytrel tubes anymore, it was still a great look.
I've seen pictures of the new neon cherry twilight zone's about to release and I'll be buying them, but under protest, lol.
If it wasn't for the fact that I've been waiting 30+ year's for that colourway I wouldn't be buying them.
I've been wanting Reebok to retro the cxt pumps, but no doubt they would be ruined too because they originally had ers.
I wish Reebok would retro the sxt and omni zone 3 & 4 also.
Maybe even the Reebok pump 2 hi. That's probably just wishful thinking, lol.
That pump 2 hi would probably be hella expensive to manufacture.
Man reading these comments about the OG Reebok’s from early 90’s takes me back to my elementary days on the playground during recess. Lots of hooping memories from elementary, pumping my Reeboks up like I was Dee Brown in the NBA dunk contest! 🏀😂🤣 Good times!!!
That Juggernaut sweatshirt is dope!
These are pretty damn nice. Struggling to find my size in my country. Story of my life.
They should have done the original tooling. We need the ERS back.
Awesome review as always.
Can’t wait to play in these I was so tempted I buying some off of eBay just to try it out. I might still buy it and see what the difference is, other than it being a older sneaker
I think these were the pumps I remember more than what was released the past few years.
Yeah, I've got a real issue with the fake hexalite stuff, it feels so cheap and nasty. Hexalite was such good cushioning. Whatever this other stuff is, it doesn't perform. Less models, bigger numbers, actual hexalite. Profit.
Reebok needs to come back out with the Preseaons low top black/white with Preseason on the tongue vertically.
Love seing TopShelf get some love from across the country
These & the iverson’s the only bulky retros that shall remain 🔥💯
My pair should be here day after tomorrow, can’t wait to put them with their high top family in my room.
Correct, original Twilight Zone pumps the entire shoe inflated, outer walls included.
Paul from the diamond center.. lol.. nice edit 👌🏾
Still have the 2012 release of the volt colourway. Materials are pretty trash on them but at least they have the ERS sole on them.
Reebok! Bring back the Pump SXT cross trainers! PLEEEEEASE!!!!!
And another one added to my collection
I'm not mad they are missing the retro ERS which serve no purpose other than squeek when you walk.
Agree with the Hexalite. I'm sure it costs money to remake it, but freaking do it already. Quit phoning it in. You have competitors who put air and other technologies in shoes so why you think you don't have to?
They should have put the ERS system on it... That would really get my attention 💖
Yes, that would be epic. If they would bring back thae hexalite. That stuff was amazing on foot and super durable
Great one and old skool
That's a hit of high school memories right there. Next do Nike Air Force Command! 😊
I kind of have a feeling that Reebok has an oversupply or stock of tooling laying somewhere and decided to make hybrids using them lmao.
Love the nostalgia of them but it’s a pass for me and as always great video 👍🏾
Thanks for watching!
I really wanted one of these, but unfortunally they're not available in my country 😢
I really like these. The pump is really not functional but more for show.
Love the vids as always. As soon as I saw these they are a must cop. Shame about the ERS tooling, however not mad just look at them! 🇬🇧
Best shoes ever. These will be my 3rd pair of pumps.
I bought these, quite like them. I did replace the insole though, other than that, happy enough with them for what they are.
TOP SHELF!!!
It's great seeing those again but just like back in the day, I'm too broke to ever cop one.
Always wanted Reebok Pumps as a kid, ended up with the LA GEAR pumps instead though. 😟
So many of us! lol
Lol, and I actually wanted LA Gear pumps. My boy had em, the white and orange. Go figure lol
Reebok! please bring back "The shroud "
I was gonna buy these but wanted varied colours. So I got the Omni zone 2 in white, mint green and purple but they just aren’t as cool and stable as the Blacktop Sneakers. The Pump doesn’t pump up, the mids don’t give the support of the highs and the leather looks water logged from opening :/
I had them & AJ V my senior year in HS. The Pumps Definitely had a air bladder around your ankle as well as the tongue. From what I remember anyway 😂
Yes I’ll watch a review on those other ones!
I really like these, but absolutely agree on how high these are.
I skipped these for the Blasts but I really wish I had the budget to get these as well. So clean
I need the white with a little purple omni pump pair. My mom bought my pair at a mall in Anchorage, Alaska back in the day.
