This continues to be a GREAT channel. I don't even buy shoes like that anymore and haven't touched a court in over a year+, but I will always keep coming back to this channel. Keep up the great work Weartesters Team and thank you for the informative & entertaining vids.
Thank you ☺️
For real. Retired my jersey a few years back but I love the shoe reviews.
This is one I might wear though!
As Chris said, these are..interesting 😁. I like the lateral profile view. I like how this brand is pushing stuff. A good lifestyle option.
Vans stripe vibe
Dude, so right !
Naw fr tho 😭🥲
Ikr! I'm getting that vibes combined with the kd16.
Haha, stole my thoughts. Classic Vans.
I could see how the styling will make this shoe a little polarizing but kudos to any company that still takes chances.
I literally commented yesterday asking you to upload this review and you all delivered! Thank you!!
We need a performance review of this one!!! Super interesting concept!
Love this concept
A review like this is gonna make me snag a pair! Keep pushing the industry forward!
I never told you guys this but I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the background music…. It soothes my soul….!
I thought vans made a basketball sneaker for a second
Honestly bro. Love your content. Thank you and just know a new fan has been born.
Thanks for all the graphic ankle roll footage. Really needed that. 😂😂😂
Any time
lol it's really traumatic for some of us
Enjoyed this one a lot. Those ankle rollover isolations landed like a gut punch. The defensive battles you enjoyed also sound like mini epic underdog stories.
Curious with this shoe. Awesome review as always 👌🏽
Algorithm! Glad to see those old shoes are being used for something other than sitting in my garage. I'd like to check the out in a different color way . I prefer a mixture but I love seeing good defense being played. Defense is where teams can make separation. It's more WILL than skill and it also shows which teams know how to communicate with each other.
Great show as usual need something like this in UK...
This shoe looks awesome. Excited to get it on foot. As for the QOTD...
High scoring track meet of a game all day. They're just super fun to watch because something is always happening.
Can't wait for mine to arrive!
Very cool shoe and great in-depth review. Look like a couple of hovercrafts on your feet. Put of a fan on the back of the those bad boys and start sliding around. Thanks Jodie and Chris.
Omg omg west tester made a new video I’m so happy
I like it. Gives me lightweight, low top Lebron 12/Soldier 9 vibes which were my favourite Lebron model. And those materials, I miss when that was the norm.
Great episode.
these are super unique, I dig them. Very Vans-ish, almost skate shoe vibes.
I think a good game is a good game. Sometimes it's defense, sometimes offense. Yes, they should have both... and great games DO. However, I find I get hyped over big plays, or an incredible individual performance (LeBron's block in 2016, Kobe's 81in point game, Jordan's multiple final shots.)
Best shoe reviewer on the web!
I hoarded a few pairs of Ektio sneakers before they went out of business. I’m glad more sneaker companies are stepping up to make ankle-supporting kicks
The Jordan xix is my fav hoop shoe of all time. I had every colorway back in the day, over 20 pairs total. Blew through every single pair lol.
appreciate the basketball IQ lesson at the end of the video Chris 🔥
This guy knows ball.
that anti ankle roll is a unique design ... wonder if anyone could share their experience with it..
like Chris said, both is require for a great game , and I refer to watch defense and hustle plays
Been a fan since nightwing2303, greetings from Mexico!!!
I dig the material choice and colour way
I definitely lean more towards the defensive-type game, but I agree that you need both offence and defence. The thing is, effort on defence is highly visible, while effort on offence isn't as visible because it's all about heart rate and conditioning (you beat the defender to the punch, so to speak). You have to coach both and insist on defence because that effort shows and can be translated to the offensive end.
I would love to try these
That anti-roll feature really puts me off. Outside of that, this shoe is really interesting and my favorite from these guys.
Not to me! It is obviously experimental, if data suggests something like this can minimize injury then the tech will just continue to evolve and get better.
@@shaq132can't argue with Shaq... Reebok gonna run this soon?
@@joshkirk6202 no, but we will start giving out a free icy hot patch for every shoe sold.
Me too. I m very skeptical. It could bring more damage to the ankle. It's a more than 90 degree roll, let's hope it's not 180, but could potentially roll a 150 degree.
The ranger looks nice, I'm sold. Just waiting on a different color
QOTD: If I can only pick between those two choices, I'll take the track meet. The far extreme of offense (Steve Nash/Mike D'Antoni Suns) is more compelling than the far extreme of defense (Tony Bennett-era UVA). Extreme scoring feels like a celebration of basketball and extreme defense is a more pessimistic approach. But if I can choose my own game, give me somewhere in between and let it be a one-basket game.
I gotta respect SPO for trying something new. I can't say that I'd be interested in wearing these casually but the tech seems cool and I like their commitment to listening to feedback.
Thanks as always for hanging out with me, and have a great weekend. Here's another sucker punch for the algorithm.
interesting approach to addressing a pretty common hazard during play. like that theyre trying to beef up a low top, instead of the usual way of making a rigid high top
I agree with the mix of both, bit if I gotta choose between an offensive game and defensive game, I'd go with defense 💯. When it's easy to score, buckets have less meaning. When it's tough to score, each bucket maters.
Serious player only has really been a great shoe company soo far . I have been a fan for a year or two now ever since they became available in my country . The explosive midsole is something else , nice to know the Ranger now come with the explosive midsole off the box
Still interested in this shoe. The Cybertruck inspiration is pretty cool to see come to life.
Give me the low scoring defensive game where each bucket makes a difference. I think of Warriors-Cavs Game 7 as a perfect example of this.
The shoes are interesting and i kinda like em! Def would rock em…especially since it’s a low top and suede! Curious to see what the review is on its performance. The traction looks dope though and the fact that all the previous drop ins all work worth this too is an added bonus! As for the question of the day… IF i had to choose between the two and only that, I’d pick defense all day!! We’ve seen multiple versions of the run and gun high scoring zero defense version and in all instances…..i get pissed off when i don’t see defense played.🤣 Absolutely with Chris about the balance and that great teams achieved both.
They took the mid foot bulge idea from Asics Unpre Ars line. I have both Unpre Ars 1 and 2. Great shoes and awesome stability.
Been waiting for a review on these!
Will you be doing a review on the EQLZ 247 tomorrow or later today?
At first I thought Vans dropped a dope sneaker..very cool review!
I have an issue when the biggest guy on the court wants to play the point & refuses to box out/grab rebounds lol
This looks very wide foot flat foot friendly, will comment again once mine arrive!
QOTD - offense like Beautiful Game spurs (seeing the ball movement and off ball movement is amazing).
That was a great QOTD. I prefer the former, as a basketball fan.
Would love to see some other colourways
Imagine skating these, heelflips would be insane. I’m gonna try some out
Is the shoe wide footer friendly? Don't mind the outrigger. As for type of game, love the grind out it defensive games but i have always found that great defense leads to offense so yeah i would agree with Chris, games should be a mix of both.
That is the only correct answer to the question at the end. Two thumbs up. Also, your gf answer was good too though, I agree
I really dig them.
I wish drop ins would become a standard for bball sneakers. Its just cool, and tailers the sneaker to u.
They gonna be big brand someday this shoe is insane
I love defense!!! I would honestly love a close, low scoring game!
Interesting shoe to say the least. I agree with Chris I want both cause just one doesn't make a great game
Damn that shirt 🔥
Use a good ETPU for the drop-in and keep the carrier as a good regulator. You'll get a pretty decent fit for the life of the shoe.
We need performance review for this👍
Respect ✊ to Jodi for appreciating defence.
It's a Cybershoe for the Cybertruck aficionados🤣 Sneaker doesn't look at all like it's designed for basketball, more like a lifestyle outdoor and even a driving shoe (tyre groove outsole) I reckon. Like a rugged, hefty Puma Speedcat. The various drop-insoles is a super impressive feature💛
The stripe on the side gives me Vans vibes. Like an Old School or something similar. As far as today's question, give me elite shot making and up and down scoring. Defensive games are great, but most times, I just attribute that to the offense just not having it that day.
A fast paced game if I have to choose.
Question of the day. What color combo ppl wear is the worst?
FIRE!!!!
Tanks
Finally caterpillar and vans colaborated to take on the basketball shoes world.
Can you review the air 180 ultramarine please??? 🙏🏻
These shoes are bonkers, but I'm with Chris that a balance is the most fun. I probably shade more toward the defensive struggle game though.
The logo looks a lot like Reebok's classic logo, too.
I sort of like it! Definitely need to see some different colors, but I think it's bold in it's angular design without looking dumb.
In other words, it's not the Cybertruck of shoes, thankfully.
Would like these better if they somehow could make it a clean toe without any other layers of material on top.
Do you have any clue as to why they don't have any of their other models on the site anymore?
What is your take on the Patrick Ewing kicks?
i think the inspiration was the tesla cyber truck
What was the inspiration behind the game 1??
Do any brands sell new drop ins? The thing that wears most in my shoes are foam/insoles/cushioning. If the outer shoe is good, why can't I just buy like formula 23 drop ins? 🤔
1st. Good shoe and SURE it was the shoe that made that weird noise when the insole pods got moist!! 2nd. I'm for hustle and off the ball movement rather than standing still waiting for the pass and iso-ball. Defense first, passing over dribbling, and not just crossing half court and heaving a 3 pointer. THAT would be a perfect game and the Denver v. Minnesota series is amazing to watch the swarming defense and the hustle that each team is showing. 3rd. QOTD : What shoe would you waste a Genie's wish to have re-release and what shoe would you waste a Genie's wish to have NEVER release again? ❤
That's VANS robotic brother😊
Are these just as anti ankle rolling as the Ektio shoes you reviewed
Why isn't the explosive midsole your fave?
That rock climbing fit 😅
Thought of maybe trying this shoe but it would appear they only have 1 model, which is out of stock in my size and many others.
The shoes LaMelo needs!
Them looks good
Im Jodi on this take, i also feel that the lower scoring games when both teams have good defense are most fun to watch, which is different than low score because both team s*cks on the offense when there isn't good defense lol.
awesome
Not going to lie, kinda dig these!
definitely made for those "take it slow & methodical" type of players. built for bulk & stablility.
Interesting shoe
weird hover boat shoes but still has a bigger outrigger than ektio brand back in the day. 😂
I choose both
Change anti roll to roll resistant, anti roll makes it seems like you can never roll your ankle rather then resisting .
dont way of wade use drop in insoles as well?
The SPO logo looks a lot like the Reebok logo at first glance.
If the cybertruck came with a shoe this is what I imagine it would look like, also not dissing I find the cybertruck to look interesting.
Every Serious Player Only shoe always looks really interesting, but you can tell they are trying to do something different with each release.
I am very skeptical about the bumper. If your ankle already rolled that way and can't get back, you will get a much greater turn on the ankle, much harder and more damaging. It could pull your tendon there at much greater distance than it should, might break it clean.
Yellow Cybertrucks 😂
The Tesla Cybertruck shoes lol
Puma RS Dreamers. The J Cole one
Man. I thought Ektio had a new shoe coming out.
To me it looks like the upper on a vans shoe, with a porygon from pokemon as the midsole
Q. If you had to wear one shoe from each major brand for the rest of your life, what would it be?
