Alexis legitimately rips and has for almost 2 decades. I assume she had a lot to do with designing it, too, since I know she has a design background (architecture, but still). If anyone deserves a pro model, it's her. Will definitely be copping a pair, these look great.
Really enjoy these kind of videos, something a little bit different than the usual. Please, please, keep doing this. These look great for the price point and I'm looking forward to seeing the other colourways that come out.
I enjoy watching the ladies shred, probably more than i do watching the guys….especially during the Olympics. Kudos to her getting her own sig line….that’s dope!! ❤✊🏽🙌🏽💯
Welcome to the longboard community! I used to board to the gym to play ball in college. I would think now would be a good time to release some weartesters stickers. Make it easier to represent on longboards and such. Just a thought, keep killin it guys 🙌
I like these, they got retro 80's vibe going. Like thw whiye and green colorway as well. I agree its nixe to see a different aspect of sneakers, qouls be cool to see you guys pump out more videos like these.
@@yourlocalbluntfriend4136 I would like a pair just for nostalgia’s sake. Never had a pair but I do remember that was the go to shoes back in the early to mid 80s
There are still a lot of people who say core brands only but honestly the quality of most sakte brand's shoes is not comparable so more and more skaters rely on the bigger brands. These look solid , I really like the rubber pads. I also immediately thought of the CT-IVs.
Cool video, it's a nice change of pace. These really do look like a shoe from the 80's, and they look like they're gonna be able to hold up pretty well. Thanks again for another dope video from Weartesters!
This sneaker is really nice can't wait til they give Shai Alexander his first signature basketball kicks over there at Converse Okc colorways would be dope waiting to see what they have planned for him cause they been lowkey killing it Draymond Greens converse be so sick,this was an awesome review👌🏾
I can see these selling out, simple silhouette at a great price. It has the dunk low look. For those who that want an alternative shoe thats not as an everyday beater, these are it.
This is sorta unrelated, but it's kinda weird there's not more Vans half cab inspired skate shoes. I think many skaters have said they're their absolute favorites, taking them by surprise. The mudguard goes up pretty high, exposing a smaller toe box window, there's a few touches like that I never really notice elsewhere, even though I hear people love the control, durability, comfort AND look.
@@adammordo That's the one thing I've heard some people don't like as much about Half Cabs, those Converse might be a solid choice then. Honestly, though, idk how people go full sessions without actual protective gear. I had a skateboard hit slightly above my ankle once and I had trouble just walking, I hear right under the ankle is 10x worse with low tops, which is where half cabs put what feels like a very solid piece of foam with padding.
not bad maan!! I love that retro look to it with the stitched in midsoles! if they ever made a high top, my god it would look like a original high top from the 80s
ive had one pair of converse that kinda looked like an adidas superstar with the shape, forgot what they were called but I definately liked them and rocked em a couple times before I sold them...these definitely remind me of those
Retro Cons design elements, built in Ollie pads with the rubber nubs (though they should have been larger IMO), can be worn for skate or style, they should sell well :) Wish they had a bit more cushioning though
This model looks good! May have to wait what other colors they come out with. I recently got the fast break alltimers Collab and the materials are great on that pair!!
I don’t understand how these would be the first CONS cupsole shoe. Kenny Anderson had two cupsole pro models, one of which had a similar cable stitched outsole. And like you said, there are already and have been tons of CONS cupsoles over the last 10+ years. Alexis is a major ripper!
The press release stated first Converse Skateboarding shoe with a cupsole. Which is also inaccurate. It must have been a mistake or we interpreted it wrong.
It's interesting how women are starting to get more signature shoes...I actually can't wait for Sabrina's new nike basketball shoe. I think that's going to be a banger
Crossover culture released some new hoop models recently. Besides that this made me want to pick up my board again it’s been a minute since I skated frfr😂
Good for Converse going after the skate market and getting in on Nike's SB lines. That eyelet by the star/tongue looks a lot like Nike. There's a few obvious Nike influences, but it's got it own style. Didn't Converse already release a basketball shoe like this? There was definitely a Converse shoe that looks very similar that got released somewhat recently. It's a cool shoe. It should sell well
If Converse were smart, theyd retro the OG Weapon now.

Did you get them? How do they feel for more of a casual use?
The “used to play” hit a little hard😢
When/why did he stop?
@@chrischen0709 the jordan 1’s happened ☹️
Injuries
Yeah, cuts a little deeper bc I was forcibly retired in my early 20s bc of my trash knees🙃
Glad converse is trying to do new stuff. Hope they have a big hit shoe soon
😂😂😂😂😂 they won't
They definitely can have one lmao, don’t know what other dudes on about rn. NB showed in these past years that it ain’t always gotta just be Nike.
If they want a hit they should release that axl rose shoe of old...
Really enjoy these kind of videos, something a little bit different than the usual. Please, please, keep doing this.

I agree
Thank you for reviewing different/under the radar sneakers like this! Love this kind of content in addition to all the regular stuff

I would slap a sticker on every box of sneakers I bought after watching a WearTesters' video (12 so far).

These are great and the retail price is perfect. Def wouldn't mind grabbing a pair
Alexis Sablone is awesome - definitely gonna pick these up.
Alexis Sablone arguably has the best flick in skateboarding. Her kickflip is a thing of beauty.
Appreciate the hoops heritage in this model. Super curious about the midsole/cupsole feel in this!
They feel like Jordan 1s with a better insole.
The rubber nubs at the forefoot are so cool. Great Converse style with this one.
Oooh, I likey.
I wish they would bring back some of the early 90s models with the react technology.
👀👀 the weapon is coming?! And that board looks amazing! Used to longboard everywhere in SoCal 🏄🏻♂️
I WANT the converse weapons back
@@yourlocalbluntfriend4136 I would like a pair just for nostalgia’s sake. Never had a pair but I do remember that was the go to shoes back in the early to mid 80s
These are RAD! Classic CONS vibe, I love them. ALSO, now I'm anxiously awaiting your Weapon video, and the classics coming back, finally??

Liking, commenting, and playing the video through even when I’m not interested in the shoes! Appreciate you guys.

I am partial to the Half Cab too and just to tie things back to Converse, I found the Fastbreak Mid skated like a lighter version of the Half Cab.

The comment about “stay tuned” regarding the Weapons has me intrigued
not bad maan!! I love that retro look to it with the stitched in midsoles! if they ever made a high top, my god it would look like a original high top from the 80s
Enjoy your new board! Love just gliding around at sunset 🌅
I dig these! Thanks for sharing!
These are super cool! Might check'em out when I buy a new skate shoe
Bishop tee!! One of my favorite xmen

Dope shoe. Saw these In my local skate store so cool to know a bit more about them.
I thought it would be a signature basketball shoes at first.

Your reviews always vgood 👍

@@WearTesters exactly.
About time they bring the Weapons back!
These will be nice on a triple white colorway
I'm in awe of your talent.

Nice colour with nice design and contrast looking awesome 👌
Cool shirt Boss. Always been a fan of Bishop. 😏
Great video as always.
These are dope. I want a pair. Reminds me of the early 2000s for some reason.
Crossover culture released some new hoop models recently. Besides that this made me want to pick up my board again it’s been a minute since I skated frfr😂
Appreciate your review
Reminds me of the 80’s bird and magic shoes, with a little twist.
Even though it's new, it definitely looks like a converse classic
Reminds me of the New Balance 550s. Hot the same stylistic 80s vibe
What is it with green and white in 2023?
Awesome Bishop!! Where you buy that from???
I hope they'd retro the wade series.
They should make these so you can configure your own brightness settings
Alexis Sablone is this shit cant wait to get these
Louie Lopez signature converse looks good as well

Great reviews
This model is doing something for me, I’ll have to keep an eye out for this.
Also, do you have plans on doing a review of the Dbook model?
converse should make a new bball shoe that looks similar to this with great cushion
Please keep doing these kind of videos... 🤗
