I'm 47. Been a Nikehead since the around 88 and I'm one of those people that just stopped giving a crap cause I was never able to get anything I was interested in so I've given up and like you said I don't even try.
Very much the same I'm 42. Stopped even looking about a year ago when I got burned out of missing out on drops, raffles and every other bs thing you had to do to try get a pair of shoes.
i’m 40 but probably being a bit more tech savy i had some success in the years, never paid resell and i have a solid collection, kd never been my taste btw
Same man
I'm 44 and did the same as you. I live in Mexico City and here all the retro releases (general and limited) go to the resellers.
Same boat. Completely lost interest.
May be its a generational thing. Kids back then are so passionate to support their favorite player's shoes. Now its more of what's hyped.
Yeah and most of KD fans are grown men now, they not gonna be buying these weird Color ways like they used to as kids
@@heartbreakzel back then I would only wear LeBron shoes cuz he was my favorite player. Now I wear shoes that are more comfortable and lightweight like WOW, GT Cut 3s, Kobe’s, etc
@@emoney2k754them bron 21s r comfy asf tho and they seling 4 $80
definitely... same thing happened with the hyped Lebron's. PE and ultra limited 7s, 8s and 9s sat... great for actual fans of the shoes
It’s also about kids these days have WAY more options than in the past. Back then it was basically Kobe, Bron, and KD that dominated the basketball shoe market. And you’ll have the occasional young star get a shoe like D Rose.
But these days you still have those 3 players’ shoes in the basketball market and plus MANY others. And that’s not even considering that kids these days are spending more money on retro Jordan’s and other shoe brands and hyped clothing.
This is what all us genuine sneaker lovers and collectors have been waiting for … these casual resellers must have had their credit card bills due, now we can get 80% of what we really want
man, it just hit me, ive been watching your videos since i was 14, and now im 24 and still here watching your videos and looking foward to when a new performance review comes out as I live in brazil so the price of snearkers here are way higher
@@arthurbrasil9881 bro I feel you. I first followed Chris back in like 2011 and I was still in college then! Wild to think haha
In all honesty most of the Jordans, Lebrons, Durant's Etc... are really easy to get. I can get anything under retail now which is awesome. True OG, I've been buying and wearing Jordans since 85. Now is the best time to be buying I've never been one to follow hype and I wear all the sneakers that I buy 🤙🏾Great content as always!
Had dinner with some coworkers tonight (SDs and VPs) from Nike. We all agree with your take on where the swoosh is at currently. Re: your channel, keep doing what you do. Great content!
Man I wish there were more cool, affordable basketball shoes being designed and released nowadays.
The AE is literally that, the Sabrina too
@@TheSnkrPimpI definitely agree with the ae, and the hardon 8… but to me, the Sabrina looks like a different variation of a Kobe. Not really an original design imo.
I love that you consistently call every Nike insole a piece of sh*t lmao I really wish they would at least offer their own in house options.
You should have seen my face when I realized a recent New Balance buy had a pair of Superfeet insoles in them. Iirc NB even offers aftermarket insoles of their own!
I truly wonder if Nike can build new shoes to capture our attention again. I used to love going to Nike towns. The showcases of new tech shoes and matching colorway apparel. Now it’s all retro, if they would add updated tech to older shoes, (protro-ish) that would justify the price increases
I’m happy these returned and don’t mind it having no hype. Buy what you like
Had the weatherman’s, pinky toe destroyers
The bboy comp was good for a first time, understanding of how it’s judged needs to be studied though
Skateboarding, some track, bmx, and soccer was what I watched.
I love that skateboarding is an Olympic thing now. We just need to add vert as well. That way it’s street, park, and vert.
I was in my sophomore year in high school when these first released. Now I’m 29 and was able to cop them with ease. So glad to have these even tho the “hype” is gone but I’m still happy to have them.
I thought they were going to fly, that's why I paid extra to get them early, oh well better safe. Did the same with the Foamposite International blues from Europe. Didn't want to take any chances taking any Ls. The Foamposites are ridiculous in hand,, extremely close to the 97 OG, beautiful!!!
Since you guys answered my QOTD I'll share my favorite Olympic sports, a few days late 😅. Basketball, with the exception of 3x3 (just felt strange to watch), swimming, track & field (USA crushed it this year), gymnastics, and skateboarding. Jodi mentioned not enjoying archery and I used to agree with her, until I saw a fan video of the competition. The accuracy for the distance they're shooting actually quite impressive!
Was waiting for this review last week when they released!
Used to only hyper focus on basketball at the Olympics but now Ill watch any sport thats on when I turn them on, but my favorites (outside bball) have become swimming, track & field, and gymnastics. Something about preparing years for a seconds long performance, thats usually individual focused really gets to me.
Anyone else wear the originals and had injuries because of them? I remember getting the OG’s for a summer basketball camp and the blisters I got and the amount of pain I was in from the originals made me hate the model, I did purchase these and I’m glad they fit a bit better 😅
literally what you said i never thought id own these just bought a pair today for retail
This is how shoes are supposed to be assessable to get!I love it
Grabbed my size 11 today (8/13) from Hibbett. Glad cats slept on rhese...always wanted a pair
Love it! From unattainable to a double up!! 🙌🙌🙌
I bought these last night and was looking for a video like this!!
The mention of all the plastic on the shoe reminds me of the 1st trainer I bought unknowingly thinking they were fly - called Trojans. To this day the worst shoe of my life and they were just full on plastic even the outsole. I struggled destroying them to get new ones 😭😭lol
He was nuts😂
Always grateful for the info !!!
Loved seeing the top 3 NBA players of a generation on the same team
I got the all black KD4s way back, and I regret not getting the white and blue ones. They were light and great to play in but I do remember a lot of pinching in the toe box after prolonged play.
You love to see it! I'm so glad shoes are easier to get....most anyways. The shoes look cool but my feet hurt just looking at em'. Look like they would "nerf" my feet... Shoutout to the Turkish guy that won silver in shooting pistols and looked like he just walked off the street. Have great day.
Without a doubt, my favorite Olympic event has to be purchasing (over) hyped sneakers.
It may only come by every 4 years, but it's always a truly exhilarating surpwhen I come out on top.
but srsly, I was stunned when I found out I won these in an EQL raffle. I'm very happy to have them.
I sure am very happy that the market crashed, back then I didn’t have money for all these, and now the sneakers that I can only dream of, are all coming back 🎉
Was ready to pick these up won the raffle at local foot locker but ended getting a W on gold medal Kobe’s so went with those instead
I saw these at Foot Locker yesterday and I too was shocked they were there. We are in an era of "clean" colors so I think that also plays into how these ares selling.
I like the colorway, just not the shoe. But my favorite was fencing I had no clue what was going on!
I really do hope older performance shoes get cheaper/attainable overtime (i wanna buy some lebron 15s/16s, kyries, and kd9s)
Copped these on footlocker. Just had to, i used to have the KD 4 Easter, my first "hype" sneakers. Unfortunately, I won't play in these since I still have the kobe 8 and 4 but It would be cool to keep these displayed to remember good times in high school
it sure looked cool, wanted them so bad when i was in highschool but the cushion seems too minimal for todays standard
Good stuff 3 weeks til I'm back in Orlando can't wait.
They’re cool, but I chose the Gold Medal Kobe’s instead
Basketball (5 on 5, 3 on 3), table tennis, badminton, then a little bit of everything on peacock.
I was so excited for these and then I tried them on. The forefoot and underfoot cushioning were abysmal at this price. AE1 lows have them beat on all counts, for example.
It's wild that a lot of extremely hyped shoes from a decade ago aren't really sought after. Like sitting on shelves lol. I appreciate it, cuz you can find Big bang Lebron 9's and South Beach LeBrons for under retail (wild statement if you lived in that era). Hopefully I can finally grab the travis scott shoes a decade from now at an outlet.
Watching from the Philippines, yey it's throwback Thursday here, nightwing look so young back then! Some KD shoes sucks from those kinds of plastic materials, leather is it man!
So true. I’m done chasing shoes. I’ve never paid over retail and never will.
I was at work when they released and lost out on all the raffles and snkrs app. Started panicking. Thank God I collect figures because I was on the hasbropulse release early.
I’ve said this before, that breakdance events were meh. Seen better performances from people on the street. And the characters dressed up with all that gear to compete in marksman and that dude from Turkey just shows up in tshirt was awesome. Would love to see American gladiators make a comeback lol and Mrs wing is right, moving targets would be a better show of marksmanship
I've wanted these So bad for years... And figures now that they're back and as accessible than ever, I'm going through my worse financial crisis in my life and I haven't been able to buy shoes for years. Now just about all of my shoes out soles are worn down to the point I can barely walk to the grocery store anymore.😢
Didn't like them before so no cop for me. I'm not surprised they didn't sellout since today Nerf is not around. I love watching track & field and gymnastics
The Olympic archery should be like the training course in Arrow 😂
Thanks for the info
Always a great time on this channel. So many shows releasing 🤦🏼♂️
Im getting these forsure but i always wanted the Christmas kd4s. And the breakdancing was weird. I enjoyed the speed climbing though and the swimming
@@killa9cam they are re releasing the Christmas ones this year I’m lit
Chris rocks. That is all.
The Kamikaze x Nerf collab from a few years ago was GREAT and sold out (just sayin)! 😉But these are dope, too - and you have to give credit to these for being the OG.
Going to go back and watch the original bc I am a true fan. @weartesters
2:04 I remember wearing basketball shoes to high school, to church, and to hoop. LOL hyperfuse low 2011 baby
Damnnnn almost 1 milly. Been rockin since 2012
I never personally found the KD4 aesthetically pleasing
Still have my 2011 and never worn with special box. I heard these were were re releasing so I bought them with ease and finally get to wear them. Our shoe palace has a ton sitting under the weather mans
Thank you so much I got them for retail while watching you’re video come to find out my job website had em in my size copped immediately
Thanks to resellers all of sneakers I want are now affordable af because of their abusive and over bs thing they've been doing for the past years on stocks etc. Though they hurt Nike and Jordans and other brands so bad but real heads are thankful for them lmfaooo I was able to get the trio kd 4s finally
I miss when Signature Athletes had shoes in the team color way, those Thunder ones in the throwback one are sick af
I grew up with my soccer cleats, basketball shoes, and track spikes being 100% plastic. Basically just walked around with blisters all the time 😂 Kids these days would die if they had to wear those old joints.
I got them hella easy! And I’m glad Nike has increase production and also have rumored to put out more of the coveted pairs we could never get….resellers will be in the comments claiming it’s the economy why shoes are sitting when really we just don’t wanna deal with resellers and finally Nike is listening.
I honestly think the KDs that I wanted most were the 1 and 2s.
I was in my mid 20s when these first dropped and I wanted them so damn bad so I doubled up. Personally I’m for re-releasing grails (ie undftd 4s, stussy and Tiffany SBs, stash am95s etc) so I can actually own and wear them. Like you said Nike had shot themselves in the foot by using the limited release tactic. You can only string people along before they don’t care anymore. But nostalgia is a commodity.
swimming , butterfly to be precise
I taught middle school in englewood nj at the time this shoe came out. All the kids had these. I will pick these up
Team handball is super fun.
These were not easy to get, maybe for the small feet people but I tried to get a size 12 and caught a L in seconds
Kept waiting for the Michael Scott “What, so Nerf isn’t cool anymore?” clip.
I like the shoes.
Had to order that shirt, so sick! Love This channel so much it hurts!
Maybe in your area…. They were sold out everywhere in NC!!!
Once a thousand dollar shoe… I love to see it
I wish I could have gotten my size 11.5 sold out on all sites. Paid $20 over retail. But I always wanted them. Still have a few og pairs.
Its great being able have enough pairs per drop to cop theyve been doing good lately there . The problem is they're releasing everything so often so back to back average people like myself can't keep up with buying every drop and I am an avid collector. Instead of dropping 3-5 awesome pairs a month now there doing that in a week its insane especially in today's economy. They need to make ample pairs for everyone to get each drop like they're starting to but still only do drops 3-4 a month or even less like they used to so more average Joe's like me can be able to get them. I used to buy 3-6 pairs a week but definitely cannot afford that right now. It's going to be going down to about 2-4 a month now. They're just dropping to much back to back to back. Between nike sb jordan and running shoes like air max and what not.
There's also a nearly all plastic sneaker that's a take on a classic we all know but haven't seen a proper review at all - Nike Air Max 90 Drift. Can you guys do a review?
I started a new job at a 911 dispatch and during the down time we would have the olympics in the back groubd. The 3 on3 basketball was cool and volleyball gets intense. My girst year giving the Olympics a true chance because same i would only watch the basketball side of things.
I swear nike made me stop caring until i hit for the reverses, the venice beaches, AND the girl dads all in a row. And they keep dropping the prices on the lebron 21s i got like 3 pair now, like 70$ a piece
Man i didnt even know these dropped😭😭
Great vid, wanted these back in the day. But I can pass today. Looking forward to the tatum 3
It sucks having a big foot because people try to resell and kicks like these not worth over retail
Hope to see this in Brazil.
great review thanks!
Been dragging my feet on ordering Since apparel. Sorry Wing but give me a minute I’m on it.
Road to 1 mil ❤
I think my biggest issue or surprise to add to the Olympics is that they’re not bringing Break Dancing back to LA in 2028? .. I was looking for To The Jabawakis getting the gold
There’s a Nerf colorway of KD Trey 5 III that I want to add to my collection, I often see matching clothes for them in the wild.
I saw a video that Hasbro had them at the SD Comic-Con but still available, IMO is good that stuff is sitting in shelves more opportunity to the people that really want them and if they hit discounts even better.
I always watch the mens basketball and mens swimming (especially when Phelps was still in the olympics). USA mens basketball was playing like it was the All-Star game this olympics and thats not a good thing. The world is catching up in skill, they need to take these games seriously like its the NBA FINALS if they want that gold.
And breakdancing was just hilarious. 😆😅🤣😂
I definitely prefer the Weatherman version over these
Synchronized swimming👌
These were so uncomfortable, my feet have never been the same since 😂
I thought the same thing until I took an L on the SNKS app. But I really, really wanted these, so I paid the resell price, which wasnt that much.
Nice colorway…but not picking them up. Summer Olympics is all about hoops! I like track and field and gymnastics too.
I wish I could say the same on buying Kobe’s.
Why did Nike go away from these designs with the plastic looking outer and cloth material.....they did the Lebron's like this too....A LOT of those designs were officiall
Archery was crazy! Perfection but yes, boring because of that
man i wore these today and they are great glad i got 2 pairs
Those have not released in Europe. Will be looking for those.
