looks like mix aloha super with adidas centeniel, rivalry/forum low and little detail adidas puig. but, if you look entire shoes, its like dunk version of adidas
Say the word 😂... Bowling Shoes? You know I love the first Tyshawn's. I skated them for over 4 years. You sold me on the Ishod 2. I am absolutely loving it. I wasn't sure how it was going to go, I am pleasantly surprised. I will probably try these, I hope there is a mid version later. Stay Rad Sir. Always appreciate you.
These look great! And I'm not an Adidas guy by any means. But they did a great job with the second version. I thought the V1 didn't look the best, in my opinion, but these are an improvement in the looks department.
These are pretty nice. I liked the original Tyshawn model, too. EDIT: Wish they had stitched on the sole, but other than that small complaint I think these are dope. I want a black suede pair w/ a gum bottom...
I hope they keep the mid top tyshawn! They skate the best! The tyshawn 2 skate good just wish there was a suede version or had suede around the toe area
It’ll definitely a be split opinion. The first one skated decent but I couldn’t get the fit right for me. The recent retooled version fit me better but I didn’t like the look as much. The original fit looks cooler… but damn it ain’t fit me. Haha this new one fits great on my foot but I know not everyone will think that
The Japan has a taller toe box. More open. It’s an all around bulkier shoe but the Tyshawn is super form fitted. I think it’s a good comparison to say the Japan pro or the new balance 440 but with a much more streamlined fit.
@@DavidBluetile Nice, good to know. I went into my stash and found that the Tyshawn 2 is also reminiscent of the first Silas shoe. That shoe was damn near perfect for my foot haha, I'll shoot you a pic of them on Insta
Hmm the only airmax shoe I carry is the Ishod max…. I think I’ve done an airmax 90 video? Maybe I didn’t? I can’t remember haha but I have some 90s and 95s
Please review all shoes if they are true to size or how do they. Cause buying shoes nowadays is a risk especially if you live across the pacific. I mean, I’m from manila 😂
So many Adidas shoes have looked good to me over the years but every time I gave them a shot, they end up hurting my feet and just don't skate the way I hoped thy would...
Just because of the three stripes? Because this is a different silhouette from the samba, gazelle, super star, Stan smith, campus, the OG Tyshawn’s, the Nora, and the busenitz. Doesn’t share lines with any of those shoes except for the 3 stripes.
@@DavidBluetile I will say if you were to put all of the shoes you listed on one side of the room and all of the models that SB is putting out over the last few years and beyond like the Vertebrae, BRSB, Day One, PS8 and even pro models like the Ishod 2’s and Nyjah 3’s. I think the design language is just more creative overall with each silhouette having an individualistic design language and each shoe holding its own as where as the addidas side of the room looks like they aren’t providing their collaborators with enough freedom to express themselves through their sneakers or it may be possible that the design team at Adidas skateboarding doesn’t have a high enough budget to craft new and creative silhouettes. I’ve seen a lot of addidas at my local over the last few years and nothing from Addidas has stood out and made me interested in them aside from the purple Kader Sylla Superstar ADV and even that shoe shares the same outsole as every other brand skate shoe. The Busenitz 1 in 2009 is really the last time I remember being exited about addidas skateboarding. Being able to cut the tung was dope and I wish they’d get back to more creative thinking and expand their design language. New Balance is taking chances like doing that collab with Rone on the Tiago Lemos 1010 last year and that was a great shoe and skates amazing. It seems like addidas isn’t willing to take those chances on skateboarding right now. Would love to hear what your thoughts are.
Is heritage just another way of saying-We don’t want to spend money on doing something different, since we have all these molds from other shoes over the years”??? It seems as if the same designers just move around or pitch ideas to different companies. When was the last time we’ve seen true innovation or completely new never seen before designs on a skate shoe line from a company that didn’t start out making skate shoes ? It’s been a couple years or more. The Tyshawn 1’s were something that was new to my eyes, but it didn’t have the crossover ability that the brand wanted…in my opinion; and I mean crossover ability such as Vans. Anyway, your featured Tyshawn 2 is a nice look back at the past, but it can get lost in the lines with their other models, because it doesn’t stand out visually. Those Lucas Puig’s are different story though. Too bad it didn’t get as much attention. Had those been Tyshawn’s shoes and he did the same tricks and won SOTY in those, there would have been a greater respect I feel.
I think adidas brought a ton of innovative never seen designs to the table about 5-7 years ago with Nak and FA that didn’t take off. The problem is if you go too far outside the box everyone hates on it. The 3st line was wildly different and just didn’t hit. I loved them but since there was nothing on the market like it nobody wanted it. Or take for instance the flexkee by asics. That shoe is perfect for skating, innovative, durable… and it’s stinking comfortable but you can’t get anyone to wear the dang thing on a large scale. So it just fills that niche until it dies and people go back to a more familiar silhouette. I agree this new Tyshawn looks more current like a dunk or 480 etc but the innovation is in the tech. The light strike and double layer toe box are better for the skate-ability. I would argue that endemic skate brands are bringing less innovation to the game and regurgitating tired designs. I’d be curious what innovations you’ve seen lately. Maybe the best shoes have already been designed? Not sure but this comment was juicy. I like it. I want more innovation. Stay tuned for the reynolds in spring 2025
@@DavidBluetile I think it’s a good thing to have an opinion and some knowledge of the past, when it comes to skateboarding and skate-related products. I’ll make this real quick, because I have to go to work in a few hours. The first shoe I skated in was a Reebok high top shoe that was nowhere near built or designed for skateboarding. This was way back in the late 80’s…possibly 1990. I wore the heck out that shoe and all I had was a single issue of PowerEdge magazine to reference skateboarding, because I am from Alabama; and skateboarding was nowhere near being accepted. Still, I was determined to skate by any means…also, I wanted to do some type of art in skateboarding. I called companies and begged for opportunities to be a part of what they had going on. Nothing ever came about until one day, I spoke with someone in the art department at AirWalk shoes. He heard my desperation and sincerity. He even sent me a pair of shoes; which I believe they were the “Velocity” model. That shoe held up for an entire year for me. Don’t get me wrong…it was blown out by all means. Still, the craftsmanship and durability the shoe had couldn’t be touched by anything. That was “the shoe”. I called and told the guy about my experience with the shoe and its toughness. Quality mattered back then. He sent me a pair of “Enigmas” (AirWalk). This show held up to the same standard as the first I received. I seriously wore the sole thin, before I blew out the sides. Those two shoes still haven’t been surpassed by any skate shoes I’ve owned…along with that pair of Rebooks. I can say the same thing about some board brands that held up for years, before quality fell off and brands started making disposable decks. I personally don’t feel like many companies are setting out to make the best possible product, as things once were many many years ago. Powell makes their version of an I breakable deck, along with a couple others companies, trying their best. Still, back then, it was no big deal to have the same board for well over a year or two. Also, when shoes blew out, duck tape was the shoe repair kit of many skaters both pro and average Joe. Innovation back then meant giving a product a longer skate life, and it was widely accepted. A skater looked forward to seeing ads from companies promising new innovations; think Z-Roller trucks, Grindking, U-Bolts, under board finger grip (Santa Cruz), etc;. For a kid today to brag about a shoe holding up for 2-3 months is laughable, considering that was break-in time for some shoes back then. It’s a shame kids and adults are influenced by other skaters, before they will be seen wearing or trying a brand they actually think looks good in their eyes, but they are afraid of what another skater or group of skaters may say about their choice. I feel this is why freestyle skateboarding didn’t get the acceptance it deserved, because of skateboard bullies. Funny thing though-the ones that chose to stick with freestyle went ion to run skateboarding. I hope Tyshawn’s shoe does well for him in the market. It will still be hard to compete with the Nike brand, because they are pushing popularity in everyone’s face even outside of skateboarding. Black kids around the country don’t want to be caught dead wearing anything less than Nike in the streets, school, club, or on a board. This is what mainstream media has given us….and this is why they have the global marketshare that they do. We can’t blame them for taking advantage of this. Rodney Mullen has old ads wearing Converse before Converse was offering skaters shoes. Nikes were worn in old Powell videos, before Nike gave away shoes. Skaters bought what they liked and what worked, before companies started making skate-specific footwear. These days, it’s all contractual, and skaters are paid to influence the masses. I hope this gives an idea of what I liked back then. I currently wear E’s shoes, because they still make shoes that I don’t need to go up a size in order to fit.
Unfortunately 100 bucks is pretty standard these days. Even es Emerica fallen etc are 100 bucks … and those brands suffer because “non posers” refuse to pay what the shoes should cost so all the cool kids are running the skate brands into the ground with fake support.
A lot nicer than the previous version IMO. More sellable probably. Thanks for the video.
Looks nice and good for skating. But the Tyshawn 1 was more innovative aesthetically
Absolutely. The 1s (particularly the mids) look like nothing else out there. These are far more generic.
looks like mix aloha super with adidas centeniel, rivalry/forum low and little detail adidas puig. but, if you look entire shoes, its like dunk version of adidas
...it you guys have eyes at all...Very true, killed it! 😂
It’s like “this reminds me of a shoe”… yeah no shit.
Best looking adidas skate shoe in a minute!
I see you Dave in the Shmoofoil shirt. You stay stepping on em. Keep it up. I love Gonz too.
Haha gonz is the best
Im digging these for sure , decent colorway to start , but hope to see the wild ones later
That looks closely like a sal barbier etnies. But the design looks cool! The colorway is awesome too!
Say the word 😂... Bowling Shoes?
You know I love the first Tyshawn's. I skated them for over 4 years. You sold me on the Ishod 2. I am absolutely loving it. I wasn't sure how it was going to go, I am pleasantly surprised.

First Tyshawn is good. I had to go up a half size even after they retooled it. These fit way better… on my feet. I’m sure others will say otherwise
Clean looking shoe, even though I am not sure about the colourway. I think I have to see it live. Love your channel, David. Best skate shoe reviews.
They remind me of Lucas's and Silas's first show.
that sole looks so good
Very nice and simple. I can dig it.
agreed

I think it’s sb upgrade but I know some will like the OG better
The shape reminds me of a couple Lucas Puig shoes
I hope they keep the mid top tyshawn! They skate the best! The tyshawn 2 skate good just wish there was a suede version or had suede around the toe area
Both og are still in the line
Nice clean design. Hope they have more board feel than the 1s
It is a cupsole shoe. It’s not going to have a thin vulc style board feel but it seems pretty good for a cupsole.
@@DavidBluetileok cool. Always enjoy your vids
Back heel looks like jordan 2 . Still nice simple sneaker
it def has a familiar vibe to it
I loved the tyshawn 1... had 3 pairs. This one just doesn't do it for me for some reason.
It’ll definitely a be split opinion. The first one skated decent but I couldn’t get the fit right for me. The recent retooled version fit me better but I didn’t like the look as much. The original fit looks cooler… but damn it ain’t fit me. Haha this new one fits great on my foot but I know not everyone will think that
Looks like an ETNIES - WINDROW or AURELIEN even in the soleprint design..!
How thin is the sole in the forefoot? Compared to the Busenitz for example
I think that’s a good comparison actually but I think the light strike might offer more impact support
It looks like it went the way of the Asics Japan Pro, with the shape and form imo. How do they fit comparably?
The Japan has a taller toe box. More open. It’s an all around bulkier shoe but the Tyshawn is super form fitted. I think it’s a good comparison to say the Japan pro or the new balance 440 but with a much more streamlined fit.

Do yall know if theres any skateboarding events going on in owens field for go skate day
Yeah we are going to have a mellow best truck vibe Friday night at Owen’s and then something at lowblock Saturday
Simple. Look pretty dope! Might take a break from Busenitz.
I think it’s a good comparison to the busenitz with a bit more tech. Hope you’re doing well!!
@DavidBluetile Ah, nice. They might be my new go-to, then! Things are pretty good. I hope the same for you!
I can’t wait to see better color ways. I do like the look of the shoe just not with that color layout. All the Best,
Is this the only colorway releasing ?
This is the launch color. So only one releasing right now
With your knowledge of sneakers, I would love for you to do a channel dedicated to Air Max sneakers
Hmm the only airmax shoe I carry is the Ishod max…. I think I’ve done an airmax 90 video? Maybe I didn’t? I can’t remember haha but I have some 90s and 95s
I have been a SB Dunk man for years, but after 40, AMs start looking more appealing (comfortable), lol.
mine crush my feet. even size 12. I can't go to size 13 sooo I wear them seldomly.
Toe cap made instantly think Reebok club c ment
perhaps... this toe wrap has more flair
Tongue straps?
Negative
Do they have tongue straps?
Negative
1:29 that’s all I heard 😂
😂😂

They need to come up with a new silhouette desperately. Every shoe from addidas looks the same.
