    Today I’m taking a look at a very strange sneaker, in fact the strangest sneaker I’ve ever seen. The Balenciaga Xpander, Kanye West has been wearing this sneaker and also has a warehouse full of them. As the owner and designer of Yeezy this makes this whole thing even more strange. Either way today im unboxing and showing you all exactly what i think of them!

    I remember back in the day, 2010 to be exact, when Kanye's favorite shoe was the Jordan 6 black/varsity red... I remember him only wearing that colorway of the 6's for the longest time... He also showed that he had *plenty* in stock, so that he'd always have a fresh pair...

    Elliot, I love your content and personality. I've been watching a lot of your videos lately. However, there is one thing bothering me, it's the autofocus on your camera. May I suggest you get some with a faster autofocus, like a Sony? Thanks! And keep up the good work!

    For a clearer comparison. It feels like walking out with carbon plated running shoes. Aesthetically, this goes back to the 2010s with adidas springblade and bounce system. I say it’s an incredibly unique sneaker. Shape is good height is good. Say these a solid 7 given that it won’t be very healthy for you in the long run

  • @glennsmith8200

    Regarding these, I've got a feeling if I was younger I'd have definitely tried these.
    They remind me of when I first discovered V.Westwood, Jean P Gaultier, and Michiko Koshino in the early 90's.
    No doubt people stared at me thinking "WTF has he got on"
    I think the FR's and the 450's are about as far as I can go now, good luck to anyone who wants to wear these just not for me.
    Love your content Elliot, cheers!

    Couple points on these shoes.
    I feel as though these can be broken in eventually this making the spring softer getting a better bounce.
    Looks as though the heel/midsole can be redone forever as long as it doesn't break.
    This shoe definitely has potential disregarding the price point. If these were in the $400 neighborhood I'd give them a go. Interesting shoe.
    First time here thanks for the review.

      @N Braithwaite LMFAO Kanye literally mentored Demna Gvasalia who is the current creative director of Balenciaga, and he practically made Virgil Abloh who's the creative director of Louis Vuitton. He's worked with Fendi and he's designed the famous double zipper sneaker by Giuseppe Zanotti, who's one of the best designers of heels period. Put aside your prejudice and blind nonsensical biases and read the facts. Kanye has had and will continue to have a massive role in high fashion. This thread is full of morons it's hilarious

    I have a very new concept for a show that's mind blowing but first before the design I want to make sure all the things I hated about other gym shoes are fix with mines. Like how the rubber on the bottom of the shoe melts away and leaves holes when you play a lot of ball outside.
    "HOW WOULD SOMEBODY WHO NEVER PLAYED LIKE THAT OUTSIDE KNOW THIS?"
    We live in a world of make a crap product and over charge for it and it's pretty disgusting.
