11" Closed Fist Circumference - Sport
Yesssssss! The long awaited review.
Finally!
great review as usual bro. I have wide feet and always found boxing/wrestling (and most running) shoes super narrow and uncomfortable. Recently discovered barefoot/minimalist shoes which have a natural foot shape and zero offset (like boxing shoes) and it's been a game changer for me. I now box in the vivobarefoot primus lite. They're awesome and I highly recommend them for any sort of training!
Nice thanks for the recommendation
With the price of these they best make me fight like Canelo...
See description box
Lol right
At over 200usd, I may as well get mizuno. Truthfully though, Reebok's boxing boot meets all of my needs. A close second would be Adidas speedex.
😂😂
🤣🤣
Been hyped on these since I saw your review brother and a couple of stores here in Canada got them in so I scooped them up. These are sick once they’re broken in and prefer them alot more than the og hyperkos. Alot of people are hating but the design of the shoe follows more of what Nike is doing with their training gear in 2020
Agreed brother glad they worked out for you
hey bro i heard that they are a bit thight, are they if they are did u go a size up?
@@kuubi7599 I bought a half size bigger and still feel tight. I wear 9.5 us
I am the fun of the shoes. It looks really good! Do wish they could improve the width of the shoe. Also do wish they will be officially released shortly. Nice review!
Agreed
I love my Hyoer KO 2s 💯. Great review as always. 🥊🔥
Man..amen on that flaw on Nike shoes, where it feels like they dont cater to people with wide feet. My first boxing shoes were Nike Machomais, I'm size 10 and I bought them size 10.5. They still felt really really tight, most especially with socks on. I saved up some money for about 2-3 years until I bought the reebok ones and they felt very comfortable and also true to size. Tbh I would still go with my Machomais but due to the comfort, its hard for me to buy from their brand again even though I like the performance better.
🥊🙏🏼
This guy is my favourite boxing youtuber♥️✊
Thank you
I love the first version,
I bought a size 3 for my 8yr old son. Had went up one size bigger than normal. We had a hell of a time putting them on.
Thank you... I really like these shoes, but have wide feet. I can't handle the Machomai 2 as they choke my feet... I was hoping that the stretchy nature of the design would accommodate my feet, however you have shared a valuable piece of info.
No prob, with wide feet you’ll definitely feel discomfort
Reebok needs to make a low/mid top version of the Renegade Boxing Boots because they are so difficult to take of and put on. I've never tried on any nike boxing shoes so what I did was wait till there was a sale and bought both 11.5 and 12 of the Reeboks and the overall size and weight difference in the 12 was noticable and with boxing u want no footslip/drag and I'm glad I ordered two and sent the bigger one back. Reebok has its sizing perfect.
So u would recommend buying exactly your size for a boxing boot? My shoe size is 12 but i could squeeze into an 11.5. Is ur shoe size 11.5 or 12?
Nice!
I lace my Reeboks three holes down from the top and wrap the laces around the boot. I stole the idea from Mayweather. For me, it works perfectly... especially with the velcro strap around the ankle. The Reeboks have a rivets that holds the laces in place. The Nikes don't. The Adidas Speedex 18 have easy to use loops at the top and I find I only need to undo 1 of the laces to slide my feet in without effort.
IDK if I'll ever warm up to the look of these new Nikes. They seem hideous and far too tall for my liking... but who knows? I'm extremely doubtful though.
@@nb0616 I tried the nike machamoi 2 and I couldn't even walk so I sent those back real quick. Lol. The bottom have no give whatsoever idk how people fight in those.
Thank you for explaining how they feel when worn. Unfortunately i have no shops close by that stock these. So been looking all over online for a wear review. I'm usually a size 8.5 but will go up half a size. Hopefully they will be a good fit
🥊👍🏼
@Cristian they were a comfy fit, thank you
I actually prefer them now to my original hyper ko
Just got to the part where you talk about the discomfort due to the width! How did the stretching go?
Carlo, I’ve been wondering what your overall favorite boxing glove is? I recently purchased some super rare americanas they are having a great sale. Great review as always.
1v1 fight gear
Thanks for the review. I’m tempted to get them eventually. Yet I’ll have to think about that damage of $180.00 plus shipping and handling. 🤦🏼
No problem
I really like the design of the nike hyperko's. I tried them in the past, but I can't wear them because of the width. Atm I wear the adidas Speedex 18, they fit me perfectly.
Nice! Yeah I wish Nike would consider wider sizes
Is the heel high, or is the footbed a zero heel-to-toe drop? If they’re flat & zero-drop, that would be perfect, because I can train/workout in those.
How Are The Shoes After 2 Years, Cuz I really want to but these shoes. I’ve also heard that you should go a size up.
For example I have wide feet and I usually wear 11.5 so would I have to order a 12.5-13???
I have the same problem. I have to go a half size up and the toe box is too narrow. Great review.
Thanks man it’s a shame they don’t offer wider selections
Those reminds me of Air Jordan Roy Jones signature shoes in the early 2000s.
Wait, you sourced those from the Philippines?! 🙀
Yup the philippines!
You should review the Nike KO. That one is perfect for wide feet. I have a pair myself
Will check them out
I agree with the width criticism man. Nike being lazy with shoe fit considering boxing covers so many weight divisions and your feet naturally expand when they warm up. I don't even bother looking at their shoes anymore. Reebok, Everlast, Rival fit a wider foot better. Even Adidas have improved on their shoe last. Thanks for the review.
Agree brother
I wear a size US 11 in the adidas box hog 3. I wear a 11.5 in Nike running shoes. I have narrow feet. Should i get a 11.5 for the hyperko2?
Quick sizing update: I got the Hyper KO 2’s Tokyo Special Edition in size 11.5. I am a 10.5 true to size, but I usually buy sz 11 shoes to accommodate a wider foot. Now I have wide feet but normal length. My Hyper KO 1’s are size 11 and fit and feel great.
These hyperko 2’s that i have are as follows:
Length: is good even going over 1 full size from my tts.
Width: is okay as well. EXCEPT on the side of my foot on both sides. My pinky toe area is really really painful. Even a full size up.
With that being said…i think they will break in eventually. But i would not spar with them out of the box. Thats def gonna hurt. And I know everyone has diff feet, but if you’re a wide footer like me. GO UP A FULL SIZE.
Hope that helps
Thank you
Did it break in tho??
@@p3ny298 they slightly did. But I can still only wear them for about an hr before pain starts setting in. Honestly great looking shoe. But for wide footers get something else or get the first hyperkos.
Love how there’s more affordable boxing shoes from everlast
Yes
Hi there, I got a hyperko2 size 10 and it kinda feels uncomfortable on the toe box, and recently hayabusa boxing shoes are now available in our area, should I get the 11 or should I stick to 10?
Would you say this shoe is worth it being one of the only boxing shoes with a size 15. I've been struggling to find a pair size 15 and these have the option for the size.
Awsome video. What brand of boxing shoes do you recommend for beginners👍🏻
Title
Blue gotta be your favorite color
It is lol
Hey man! I have a the HyperKO1s and I rarely use them because I have a pretty wide foot. I was looking to buy these to correct that problem but you said they are still pretty narrow. I am a 10.5 and my hyperko1s are a 10.5, would going up to a 11 and adding a custom insole on the hyperko2s make it viable? Thank you!
They’re about the same width to be honest, I steer away from them
@@csquaredboxing would an 11.5 solve this or would they become to long as I am 10.5 also
Hey what’s your favorite boxing shoes under $100? I’m looking between the Machomai 2 and the Everlast elite high tops.
For me I prefer the elite high tops
Hey bro, I recently bought a different pair and I had trouble putting my feet in. Whats a good pair of boxing shoes that are good for bigger feet and easier to get on? I don't like my shoes too tight. Hey also thanks for the tip on those Rev Gear gloves, I switched to them for my bag work! Nice and loose and bouncy.
Everlast elite or adams abv1 shoes are better for wider feet
@@csquaredboxing Thanks bro!
I’m size 8 but there’s only size 9 available should I still buy I don’t want to waste 250$ and it’s too big
You should do HyperKO vs HyperKO 2.0 comparison
👍🏼🥊
Do u think it if I cut the outsole on the sides, will they be much more comfortable? I think it's possible to cut them off using heat gun or have u found a way to make them fit better?
You could try but I’m too scared to do that to my shoes lmao
Are they suitable for 5'5 guy? How they look? Thx carl
Btw guys I got the Nike hyper ko 2 in red and just letting you know always go up half a size for a boxing boots 👍
Is the width the same as original hyperKO or tighter? I'm getting these for sure when there's some better colorways.
It’s about the same
Do you consider it to be a durable and resistant boot?
The truth is that it gives me a bit of disbelief for the materials they used, they do not look ordinary but it is made of pure fabric with a few rigid plastic reinforcements, it does not scare me for 179 dollars
Yes durable for sure
Hello... can i put inside part of my large pants? Some like militars with the pants inside his boots...
Peace C! i know an old video, but do you still wear these from time to time? or just sitting? and what was result stretching these out? i think i have the same size foot as you and I have chance to buy a preowned sz 11 pair for cheap
I sold these a while back, too narrow for me
Superare recently released their own shoe for $100, can you do a review of those?
Will be doing soon.
Could you pls recommend your favorite boxing shoes? Thanks!
This model is $180 on official website with 10% off at this moment, and their sale items will have 30-40% off during Black Friday according to customer service. There seems to be a lot of room for better deals. 😂
Adams abv1 shoes
you should review the adidas box hog 2 shoes
I’ll check them out
Love these shoes, but I had to go up 1 full size. These are the only shoes I can use custom orthopedics in because the insoles are large.
Thanks for sharing!
HyperKo 1’s are the hardest boxing shoes ever…actually if Nike sold them in regular stores non boxing practitioners would buy it too
👍🏼🥊
still a lot of people looking for Hyperko 1
Hey Carlo! If i wear an 11 in the hyper KO 1(it took time to break in) and it feels good now. Should i stick to an 11 in hyper ko 2? Or should i get 11.5?
11.5
Those in silver and black or red and black sheeesh 🔥
Yessss
Do you think after training in it for some time that the tightened end will loosen up?
A little but not much
Run true to size or half or a size up? In everlast and Reebok and Rival boxing shoes I’m a size 11
Half size up
Normally a TTS 7.5 in running shoes.
Never purchased boxing shoes before.
Should I stick true to size or size up or down?
I have a slightly wide foot FYI
Half size up
@@csquaredboxing I read a couple of reviews and im leaning towards going a full size up. the way im thinking about boxing sizing is like basketbell shoes i generally goa ful size up in mondern basketball shoes. what are you thoughts on that?
@@LastGateFitness you definitely could, it just depends on how wide your feet are. But it’s a safe bet either way because if it does feel a little loose you can replace the insole with something thicker to fill that void. Better than the shoe being too small and hurting your feet
@@csquaredboxing that helps a lot thanks! Thinking of going for the limited edition Hyperko in white.
Also just to get a frame of reference do you have narrow or wide feet?
I’m a true size 7.5 but I wear size 8 in air Max’s and 8.5 in lebron basketball shoes.
Given those sizes what do you think?
friend I have these boots in 11.5 but I want to buy the Nike hyperko 1 do you think I should choose the same size?
Half size up
I’m a size 11 in everlast boxing shoes and Reebok boxing shoes should I also order this in size 11?
Half size up
how does these compare to addidas speedes ultra?
I’m a size 11 in Reebok’s and everlast what size do you recommend I get with the Nike hyper ko 2?
11
@@csquaredboxing what site can I get the hype ko 2 as well?
did you end up finding a boot spreader to use?! if so which one and did it help??
I’ve had one for a long time from amazon
csquaredboxing has it helped??
I feel like they tried too hard with these , looks wise. If they’re great performance wise than it doesn’t really matter but maybe they should’ve stuck with the normal hyper KO’sand changed up some color ways
For sure I can see that
Do you suggest to order half size up like for the old hyper ko’s
Half size up
Have you done a machomai review?
No
Is it KO sports or K-1 sports?
Sir tell plz where I can buy this shoes
The look is awesome! Are they wearable on casual outfits? The must be very comfortable.
I personally wouldn’t wear them as a fashion piece but to each their own
@csquaredboxing If im a 9.5 on nike regular shoes, do i order the same size?
Yes
@@csquaredboxing thanks
do you think i should buy these or everlast boxing shoes?
Depends on your feet and personal preference
I just don't like the size of the swoosh, but I think it's dope
Yeah I think it looks dope as well
@@csquaredboxing bro what's the song you use in your intro? Groovy beat
Hi do you think they can be used for casual like sneakers?
No
Should I get a half a size up or will they break in?
Half size up
Do the narrowness eventually break in over time and don't cause pain?
For me it doesn’t
When will they come out on Athleteps
Now
Just got these I . Kind of hurts my feet on the out knuckle on my pinky toe
Yeah they’re a bit narrow
Wered u get them from pleaseeee I’m despo
I wear a 9.5 what size you think I should get ?
10
10.5-11
Not a fan at all. The original Hyper Kos are much better. And the color ways are not great. Wish I could still buy the original color hyper kos.
All good bro
You can. Just gotta know where to look
dude every pair of nikes hurts the side of my feet for some reason
Yeah because they’re narrow
Nike shoes all run narrow. All of them. Anyone with wide feet should steer clear of Nike for any footwear. And last I checked, Adidas were at least, if not more, narrow. So I can't wear those either.
Perhaps I can learn shoe repair and cobbling and start making my own boxing boots. But being married with two kids, I don't have time for that and the market is so niche that it wouldn't be worth the trouble
Even if I could afford it, I doubt that even Filippo Di Nardo makes boxing boots in EE widths, much less in half sizes. And if I could afford it, I wouldn't simply because I'm not worthy and my wife and kids would kill me.
💯
Man these are so ugly, and the color schemes suck. The original hyper KOs were amazing, I own a pair and they’re probably the best looking boxing shoes in all of boxing and they’re damn good quality too. The main reason I bought them was the support strap over the front of the foot closer to the toes, it provides amazing support when I’m pivoting, planting, or moving laterally or moving to create angles (which is what a majority of movement and footwork you do in boxing) so idk why Nike came out with these moon boots and got rid of that support strap. They should have just stuck with the original design and put all the effort into improving that shoe instead of creating a new one. I 100% have no interest in buying these, this is all just my opinion.
Thanks for your feedback
@@csquaredboxing first id like to thank you for your channel and your reviews, they’re very well done and informative. Second I’m sorry to give a negative review on the new hyper KOs but this is my honest opinion and I’m saying this in the hopes that someone takes my opinion into consideration before making a purchase and then realizing they made a mistake.. or maybe they like them.. I’ve been an athlete most of my life doing so many different sports and I also have been dealing with foot problems / hip problems / shin splints for a few years now so footwear is extremely important to me. I’m very critical of footwear in general and I have several pairs of boxing shoes because most just don’t seem to have the support I need. Obviously everyone is different we’re all built differently move differently and have different strength/weaknesses so what works for me might not work for someone else and vice versa. Now I haven’t tried these (new hyper KOs) myself so technically I don’t have personal experience with them and they could work great for me. But i really needed that support which the new ones got rid of and I know how it feels in boxing shoes that don’t have it. However when it comes to pure aesthetics I think these are extremely ugly lol but that’s just me.
you got the point, that's why so many people are still looking for Hyperko 1, I got customer asking every week.
@@doublea3433 i believe it. was hard for me to find mine as well and if you go on ebay people are price gauging the heck out of em.
@@Killacam1992 you won't believe the price on ebay for Hyperko 1 is cheap already, because I sell these even higher, but still got ppl asking everyday, and sold it each pair every day from the states, Australia, Canada, Mexico, Philippines...
those hyperko 1 on ebay dun have many size and colors, so ppl still come to me.
Por favor subtitulos en español . Gracias.
Si!
Im a wide footer myself it sucks
I agree, literally makes it impossible to fit in a lot of nice shoes. Like all nikes lol.
I m a flipino
Cool pare!
Then you definitely got to get a pair!
They look much worse then first ones.... And the first ones are not available anymore...
Horrible shoe. The loops that hold the laces rip. Mine lasted 6 months. Hyper Ko1> Hyper Ko2
They cost more than 150 euros, the material looks very cheap :l
👍🏼🥊
@@csquaredboxing I went for Lebron Soldier 14
Ayy lmao
Ayyyy!!
Wolf... these are ugly
Lol looks are subjective but yeah a lot of people still prefer the originals
Btw guys I got the Nike hyper ko 2 in red and just letting you know always go up half a size for a boxing boots 👍
