@@brianj23 why I have real pairs 🤷♂️ If I bought fakes then no lie couldn't walk around in them knowing what they are and if they where cut my feet would still get wet 🤣
Dane Ibsen if you talk designer sneaker, Id say ok. But this most overrated shoe brand in the history is only for suckers like you are. Never owned a pair of these ugly shits, but the 1s. If you think this is a nice shoe with or without holes anything other than for gym or hoop, you have no taste like most of the suckers here.
I stopped using StockX when they charged my card $750 for something I never ordered. It took them forever to determine I don’t live in Pennsylvania lol. I’m in Los Angeles, CA my credit card says I’m in LA, CA lol How did they take 3 weeks to determine I’m not in Pennsylvania?
Instead of using StockX, I suggest using GOAT. Im a huge collector and have definitely spent my fair share on both apps and can tell you first hand that I trust GOAT a lot more than I trust StockX. I still use StockX every so and so for streetwear, but sneakers are practically a no go unless it's my only option for a reasonable price. Especially after seeing how StockX handled that huge security breach last year, it's just to big of a risk to be using them on the reg or for rare shit.

there's something cathartic about watching you cut and lace these shoes up to a minimal (yet awesome) soundtrack. I know I'm necroing an older video, but I really enjoyed this
Foamer here’s even idea to make them more different and make them look great yellow out the netting to match the bottom outsole and add the red laces that would be Fuego 🔥🔥🔥
@@stephendevitis4060 thanks but I have never seen it done before it was a idea I just came up with I am pretty sure it could be done with age it could my 05/06 metallics did
I've been watching for a couple years and can I say the video production has improved soooo much. You guys are growing so much and from your first uncivilized hoodie to now the creativity is showing in full. You guys are great, PLEASE keep killing it and living the dream. I do think you should always show on feet because in some previous vids you didn't but other than that ❤️
Of all the sneaker channels yours is the only one I watch. I’ve been watching for a few years now. I can’t get with any of these young kids, resellers or hypebeasts. I’m an older sneaker head closer to 40, that buys the shoes I want to wear the shit out of them. Appreciate you, buckets and the channel.
@@snacks5929 I think cutting all the holes out is dope except for the off white text on the medial side... I think its adds to it. I personally won't be cutting mine tho lol
They do look better with the holes cut out, but only when not being worn, kinda like looking into emptiness and adds to the artsy feel. All that goes away when you put them on. Cstch 22
You a Good Dude, My Brother....I can honestly say You are down to Earth and You Actually wear and appreciate sneakers to the core....Keep up the good work....!!!
I live in the Philippines so more ventilation is always welcome but I just removed the holes from the medial side with the "Off-white for Nike..." bit. That's the only thing I hate, along with the quotation stuff, on Virgil's work. These 5's are fire overall, gave it a 9/10, I can't say the same for the upcoming colorway tho.
I missed out on em... I would not cut em initially like you... and like you I would’ve wore them in my sleep probably lol. The cut is a nice touch...! 💯 definitely would swap laces but based on the fit I’m wearin...
Thanks much for the real world look at the holes cut out of the Off-White 5's! I know it was Virgil's vision and even saw him with his popped out. I thought it looked so amazing I broke out my exacto knife today. Mad props to you and Buckets for the fancy footwork (literally!) Thanks again J. Kocis
I used to exclusively use stockx for everything but since that breach I got my emails hit with hacks and spams, fuck that noise. Goat is the way to go.
I would just cut one of the holes around the ankle but the white laces bruh totally changed my view of this colorway. I'm not a dark sneaker type of person but the lace swap makes me wanna go and get a pair, 4 bills tops lol
pre-2020: holes in my shoes = old, used, suggestive of not being financially secure, time to look for new ones if possible 2020: having holes in my shoes = cool, hype, trendy, surreal, totally not trypophobia-inducing
I really wish Foamy would put a little PSA out there about StockX instead of being all about the cash. Everyone be careful they are known to send fakes.
Bryan _350_ no they won’t, i sent them about 30 pics with a dslr camera. They wouldn’t give me jack, no return address or anything. Finally the last email they said it looks like I tried them on. They are a dirty business, scamming people. I’ve heard of people on Reddit sending all kinds of fakes through. And to say some slip through, yeah i get that, but when something is so damn obvious that should be caught. I knew soon as i opened the box they were reps, poor ones at that. So it was pretty clear nobody looked at them even though I paid for that service. Just look into all the class action lawsuits going on against them, that should say enough.
Bryan _350_ also I’ve purchase quite a bit on Goat and have had no issues at all. But my two purchases from StockX were both fakes. And no I wasn’t able to return either of them. That whole fairytale of them working with us doesn’t happen in real life.
I like the holes cut much better, I may actually do that with mine. The only thought I have is that it may ruin my resale when/if I ever decide to move them after a few years. Who knows, I still have the OG AJ1s
everyone is gangsta with holes in their ow jordan 5s until it starts snowing
Nailed 1337
Or when it’s humid and that foot odor kicks in.

Honestly people in high fashion wear some stupid ass shit. This is nothing.

Getting the off white version is like upgrading your cars at Benny’s in gta 5
The side holes kinda ruin it for me
I immediately threw the white laces in my pair... glad to see Buckets warming up to these
White is fire ngl, have you seen the youtuber that put the yellow though? Pops!

there's something cathartic about watching you cut and lace these shoes up to a minimal (yet awesome) soundtrack. I know I'm necroing an older video, but I really enjoyed this
The thing i love about off white and nike colab is that you can do whatever you want with the shoes and you are in control
I think it's better to put a transparent material on the holes, just to cover dust
an water
ik can v send a a clittle to copto cool 😎 chfor gfor cthat’s that’s what
😎 just woke her
I love the creativity
Foamer here’s even idea to make them more different and make them look great yellow out the netting to match the bottom outsole and add the red laces that would be Fuego 🔥🔥🔥
I put mine in my ice box for a week and yellowed it out def looks so much better
Yellowing the netting is the best idea I ever heard for this shoe.. have u seen it done or know how it can b done?

@@stephendevitis4060 thanks but I have never seen it done before it was a idea I just came up with I am pretty sure it could be done with age it could my 05/06 metallics did
Not a huge of cutting out the holes, I kinda dig the foggy window vibes. BUT THE LACE SWAP is definitely fire. I went with one red, one white. 🔥

We was raised to ask for new shoes when there were holes😂
Yo those look super sweet with the modification you made. 12 out 10 beautiful things
The holes really do make the shoes even more wavy man 🥶⚡
Young Buckets with the steady hand!
The white laces are definitely the way to go! I like the holes but I personally wouldn’t do it if I had a pair. This shoe is just super fire though.
The more I see these the more I want them. I’m honestly debating on paying resell. Or I might wait on the cream or grape pair that’s rumored.
2423hop damn and the skittles
I told myself id never pay resell but with these I might
yal are goofy if u pay resale for these
@@ummyea3682 yeahhh I'm not gone do it
Chris Desouza Bro don’t pay a $1K for a shoe lol. Get them grape pair they look better than these in my opinion.
As high as re-sell is on these.....THERE IS NO WAY IM CUTTING ANYTHING OFF MINE....ABSOLUTELY OUT OF THE QUESTION!!!!!!!😮😮😮😮😮
Paid 820 resell, lol not a chance I’m doing this sh*t
Dammnnn brought back the OG Woodgrain backdrop, nostalgia from older foamie videos hittin' rn hahah
Tbh with the holes cut out and no laces , that’s such a clean futuristic look . Wish I had me a pair
ya those laces definitely did justice on these... lowkey makes me want a pair
They look so much more fire

Still worth cutting it off in my opinion

Who is watching without off white air Jordan 5? 🤣🤣
Juan The pile not me
LeggyPhreg flexer alert 🚨
Not me lol ur like the only one dude
Damn sorry man, not me
Looks like Buckets needs to add MD to his title. Going full surgeon on the Jordan 5.
Hey Foamer, how are these holding up wear wise? Are they durable, or is the material / sole kind of a more fragile shoe?
Funny how everyone hated the holes in the AJ25 but love the holes on this model. Could it be anything off-white is gold to some?
the more i see these the more i want them. cutting the holes out just made them even better.
You a Good Dude, My Brother....I can honestly say You are down to Earth and You Actually wear and appreciate sneakers to the core....Keep up the good work....!!!
It honestly makes them look better! And i can rock them with the holes cut out since i live in LA and don't have to deal with the rain
That boy Foamer overclocking the V's... i like em.
They look a lot better!
Looks SUPER DOPE😍 But man I'm struggling to cut holes in my $800+ kicks
Nrvous 30 225.00 kicks
Prime 1999 if they’re selling for 800 then they’re $800 shoes. Go try and get them for 225 and let us know how that goes
Me too, man. I want to but like...fuck. 😭
@@joshlancina what they're going for is not what it makes them. Whatever you paid for them is
Albert Lopez then how come I can buy an azael yeezy for $200 and sell it for $700, does that mean my Travis Jordan 1s are only worth $175? Lol
I thought you were crazy then the white laces and red socks set them 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 now want to see with yellow socks
stockX i used to buy my air max 94s recently after your glowing reference and even here in the uk only taken a week in shipping. Thanks bro.
Bro honestly it's 3x 🔥🔥🔥 with the holes cut out. Love the red socks pop out on the sides
I respect you jo.. you actually ROCK YOUR SNEAKERS!!
OG!!!
I live in the Philippines so more ventilation is always welcome but I just removed the holes from the medial side with the "Off-white for Nike..." bit.

Wow everything he said about this video was 100% agreeable! The white laces and the holes 🔥🔥
Was skeptical at first but cutting the holes out is so dope and then y’all took it to the next level by switching out the laces. 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
ok i changed my mind they look fire
Workshop tour!!!!
I think they look dope foamer! Adds your socks into your style 😎
Eh I can't say I appreciate these shoes the holes dropped my score 4/10
Idk about the white laces, honestly I think the black are better.
the white laces are def the way to go
Virgil kind of wanted you to cut the holes!
he's deff going to strip the travis sbs
I understand cutting the holes int he off whites, it looks dope, but the elephant print is not for me and I dont understand why they used it.
Mmmmm, maybe cut out the circles that are at the highest point BUT NOT THE MID LEVEL CIRCLES. I dig the lace swap tho.
I did one red and one white, which took the shoe to the next level!
The holes. The white laces. And the fire red socks? I think you hella channeled Virgil here, homie. You exactly the kind of guy he made the shoe for.
I missed out on em... I would not cut em initially like you... and like you I would’ve wore them in my sleep probably lol. The cut is a nice touch...! 💯 definitely would swap laces but based on the fit I’m wearin...
I’m not a fan of this shoe but I will say cutting out the holes and wearing dope socks makes them a little better.

Nice idea to show those holes...
Either way, white or red Laces both are sure fire... Love those J5's...
I was skeptical at first about the changes but the white laces really make these shoes dope! I’m impartial about the holes 🤷♂️
Took them to another level 🔥🔥🔥
I appreciate everyone who cuts their holes, I just can’t do it to mine. 😬
The white laces are nice but i dont like the holes
These are dope. Honestly I would have gone with a yellow lace swap.
At first I was a bit skeptical about cutting holes on the shoe, but after it was cut, I was actually okay with it, and I must say they look fire
Love you Foamie been watching you since Diamond T’s and What The MVP Xs
I used to exclusively use stockx for everything but since that breach I got my emails hit with hacks and spams, fuck that noise. Goat is the way to go.
Damn man. Having stockx as a sponsor is pretty dope. I'm sure it pays off
What kind of laces are those and where do you buy them from?
How do these fit compared to regular 5s since they have less padding ?
I always rocked with you because we both share the size 13 struggle
I would just cut one of the holes around the ankle but the white laces bruh totally changed my view of this colorway. I'm not a dark sneaker type of person but the lace swap makes me wanna go and get a pair, 4 bills tops lol
I think if I ever cut out the holes I’d only do the ankles and see if it grows on me to cut the rest. But they look REALLY DOPE!!

This "mod" is TRASH!! "This is how the sneaker was intended to be worn" wtf?! Hahaha lame
I bought these right after this video!!!
This look dope with red or yellow socks. Wouldn't cut all the holes btw
Bro love this modifications😍😍👌...keep making such videos
Mr Foamer Simpson keep doing your thing with the vlogs an keep them coming💯💯💯👍👍👍
Red laces would be fire too
Yoooo, genius idea, I didn't even want these but since you cut the holes in them I want them lol
Can u cut off the mesh? Is the shoe blacc underneath that?
I love cutting them. Virgil intended it that way
White laces are a major go but I’m not feeling those holes cut into the kicks
When you slid in with the red socks....Dope
whats the reason for flipping the lacelock around?
I’m buying these and cutting them I don’t make lot of money but I always skip on releases but these r dope
Question, what's the reason for the flipped lace lock ?
I watched the video now I want a pair swap with the white laces but not gonna cut the holes tho
The white ones like mj did. But red would look dope as well.
