You should cut snowboard boots in half, good season for it.
Yes
I think he cut a pair of vans snowboarding boots in half at one point 🤔
Yes
ruclips.net/video/Ccf_qYI8uhc/видео.html
He already did!
@@thiccricc5964 yes and they were made by vans lol
Ive been using my rich paul 550s almost everyday for the past year or so (whenever they dropped). And they’ve aged beautifully. The leather has more of a wrinkle type aging process as opposed to my vast grey dunks that i used for a wedding 2 weeks ago and warped like crazy💀
I got the rich pauls too and the leather quality is better than my green ALD 550s. Love them both tho
Yeah I have some NB 550 Cream Black/Sea Salt and they're some of my favorite shoes in my collection
@@sam_9228 my friend has those and he doesnt clean them but it loojks brand new everytime i see him wear them
For this channel, I won't skip ads. Please continue to do these cut in half and sneaker analysis!
NB has been stepping it up lately I’d be curious about the more wild 2002R’s or the 9060’s in terms of build quality etc
I don't do white sneakers, but if I did I would absolutely go for the colour combination shown on the pair of 650s. That off-white/green combination just does things for me...
I was waiting for this! I was thinking of getting a pair!
1st time watching ya vid go half thru & subscribed u really breaking it down literally
I was hoping you would do this with the forum 84s too, the ones with the brown edges like the wild teals or the brown color ways. The red was using recycled materials.. Cheers!
thank u man i was looking for this video apreciate it !
Great content, love the channel!
I would love to see you do a video comparing all 6 versions of the new balance 990. I know you did a 990 vid, but would be cool to see the difference in each version.
Also would be interested to see you cover hiking boots and footwear. Both the fashion focused models like Salomon XT-6 and ROA Andreas / Katharina, and also Performance focused from Merrell and Keen for example.
Hope this finds you well
Knew it was better leather, but surprised it wasn't by much. I think it's cause the construction of the sneaker is just so top-tier, it was hard to believe otherwise. Great review though. Hope one day NB decides to make a Made in US version of the 550 so we could compare GR, collabs and MADE versions of the sneaker.
There was a real popular sneaker in the 90’s called Assassins, they had a lot of great features, looked real sharp, and we’re popular with the dad crowd. They retailed for $150 back in ‘92, maybe you could get a pair of those and cut them in half next.
This is random but I’ve been mountain biking for a few years, and I’ve used Ride Concepts Livewire shoes with my flat pedals. They have held up well, and I think that it would be really cool to see Weston make a video on some kind of shoe like that.
Glad you did this
Finally, a new balance video. Waiting for the NB574 video.
Really hope you'll do a comparison between the "Made in USA" & "Made in UK" to see if the higher price point for being made in the west is worth the extra costs !
I would love for you to do a review on Anta Salehe Bembury x SB-02 I want to see your review on that nest technology that Anta is using with this model.
I personally own a pair, and I absolutely hands-down feel that it is one of the most amazing all around all terrain type shoes, but I would love to see your guises take on it and of course, as usual, you guys rock it with every video! This is one of my favorite channels! Keep up the great work!!! 👍Review the Anta’s!!!🙏
I mentioned this before, and I’m not trying to spam, but it would be cool to see a comparison between the Reebok club C 85 and the club C 85 vintage
Reebok vs anything would be nice
@Rose Anvil When can we expect your reviews of the Viberg service boots, derbys, sneakers, chelsea's & compare them individually to the other top of the line competing boots! Love the quality of your shows
Dope vid. I have the green and brown ALD 550s, and the green, red, and green/cream 650s and all are soooo good. I tried buying a GR 550 and they were SO bad and actually so narrow I couldn't wear them and returned em. The ALD is wider and way more comfortable. And the leather is way better... Especially the first pack.
I am planning to buy the latest ALD 650 collab and was going to try on a GR pair for sizing. Do you think thats a safe idea or do you have a better recommendation for sizing? I rock 10.5 in the 990v5
Hey Rose! Awesome content! would you be able to do a breakdown on the Asics EX89s and a comparison between the NB 550/650s?
Great video
The Wade Shadow 4 seems to have som interesting tech in it. Would be fun to c u dissect it!
Gonna pick up the ALD 650r’s in green and white today.
I own both of those pair, weird seeing a review after having them for a while
Hey. I don’t know if you take suggestions, but there’s a shoe I would love to see the inside of. They’re called GDEFY. I’ve had a pair for some time. They’re super comfortable. Their selling point is springs inside the heel. Could be an interesting inside look!
Hi man! Thanks for your video!
Can you please review Asics sneakers? Gel Kayako 14?
And also make a top sneakers based on quality and price ?
Thanks a lot!
The history of Onitsuka Tiger is very interesting. I would suggest doing a video comparing their Nippon Made series and their regular series. They boast that the Nippon line is superior in construction and materials used. Only Rose Anvil could tell us if Nippon Made is worth it!
Asics
Totally agree. Would loveee to see this!
It would be interesting to see what you think about the Diadora mi basket heritage/used version. Cause the leather they use on these looks quite good tbh
Would love to see this compare to adidas mid forum, and Air Jordan 1s. And would love to see Asics EX89 cut to compare to the forum lows and NB 550s.
Thanks so much for the video Rose Anvil, how much better would you say 650 quality is compared to Nike SBB?
I didn't know StockX existed until watching your channel. So, make sure they know that!
You should check out the steel blue southern cross boots. They claim to be the most comfortable and are very popular. Thanks!
the 550s have been amazing for my 100 kg tall body so far, amazing quality!
He said the 550s have the worst leather he’s ever seen on a name brand shoe. What amazing quality are you talking about?
I've noticed the older ALD 550s have slightly better leather. My green colorway seems less plasticky while the brown ones are more like dunk quality.
Yeah that’s what I noticed too with the rerelease of OG colors of the 550s in 2021.
Can you do the forum 84 high white blue? It was the first forum that addidas brought back and it feels like it has super high quality leather compared to the other ones at the mall.
from the drawing it doesnt look like tucking the upper a little under the board actually does anything at all, as the upper is not stitched to anything inside other than to the outsole. in fact, with strobel the construction seems more appropriate as it provides both flexibility and additional stitching inside (to the "sock") ?
For the 550s you mentioned that the tongue was flimsily stitched down with a single stitch. Is it the same story for 650?
@RoseAnvil
Please look into some of the Motorcycle boots like Revit, Merlin, tcx, speed and strength...and so on.
Would love to see if they're offering good value.
Interesting... maybe you could do the 990v2 Sea Salts (M990TC2 I think) next? It's part of the Made line so the leather might be good
I just want made in usa new balance review 😅
I just want made in usa new balance reviews 😅
The leather actually is really nice on those
more new balance content please!
REQUEST: Loro Piano - Open Walks & 3 tiers of cheaper copies. Aurelien - City Loafer, Scarosso - Arturo & Maison Clo - Suede Chukka Boot
you should review the Nike dunk low scrap i think there cool and they have a lot of materials on them.
interesting video, thx
2:55 That's what you're looking for. Nice cut !
Hey dude I started religiously watching you cut shoes in half and I decided to take a shot in the dark and buy some whites chore boots. I was just wondering if you could cut them in half and give everyone your opinion because they seem like they were going to be kind of perfect. I appreciate everything you do thank you for being courteous
I don’t know, the coating on these shoes seem completely different to me. The regular version bubble up and melted while the lad doesn’t, it just burn and turn to brown dust. You mentioned before that leather that burn like this have a heavy pigment of top instead of heavy plastic, which make sense since they are completely softer
If they have those in the red and black (Bulls) colorway that would be awesome.
They recently dropped a couple suede 550 versions and there is a canvas version coming soon. Probably better than the cheap plastic coated leather.
Check out Diadora Italy made basketball shoe .. I
Love the Diadora Vigore fir a running stability sneaker
Westin try to cut open a new balanced redwing collaboration 997! I want to see if the leather on it is good.
the avia 830s need to be next!
I want to know if New Balance going to change the leather grain of the 550 sneakers compare to the 650?
Hoping to see an S tier one day.
S tier leather would only be used on italian dress shoes type stuff or super premium boots. S tier leather on a daily use sneaker doesn't make much sense unless youre willing to spend more than 500€ on retail for that.
The the white sneakers didn't come with a tier leather, then we'll never see it on sneakers
You should really try guidi boots. they have a very unique silhouette, immaculate leather quality, and are a family business that specializes in leather tanning and specialty leathers.
Would you make comparison between Jordan 36 and fake ones
New balance collaborated with red wing do one of those!!!
Cutting apart Mountainbike shoes would be cool. Would be nice to see what the materials are like on five tens freeriders for example and if there are really any more protective than normal shoes. Would also be cool to see what makes them so stiff.
How about the New Balance ALD 550's are they different from regular 550's too?
I’m not sure if you done this boot yet but I would love to see you cut in half/review Irish Setter wingshooters
can you do some salomons please! xt4 and xt6 seem to be trending. but im curious of its quality
You should maybe analyze the BB550WEA cause there is no coating, on the leather.
You forgot the centered cut score 😢
(Very cool video tho 👍🏿)
Hi. Can you do Skecher Nash? It’s around the same price point as Stan Smith. I’m not sure which one to get. Lol
Day 2 of asking for A ma maniere jordan 4s, super nice. Nobody is sure what the materials are. But they are nice and candidate for sneaker of the year.
you should make a video on the new balance 2002r
Based on the construction of the shoe do you believe 550s can be stretched half a size?
Could you PLEASE get your hands on the Reebok Answer 1 DMX sneakers 2022 25th anniversary releases and cut it apart and check the leather on that shoe. It has patent leather and regular leather on the upper. It would be interesting to check out the quality of the leather.
Could you recommend some sneakers with good leather that also look good?
waiting for them to come out with a black with green highlight 650...they seem to have a black with red highlight 650.
I wanna see you go a review on the a ma maniere Jordan 4, I have them and they promised high quality product but idk maannn. Would love to see your views on it 🙌🏻
Could you do the our legacy camion boot would like to see if they are as good quality as people say or if it’s just hype
Meindl boot cut in half? It a very popular brand in europe. They make excellent hiking boots.
You should do DC boots/shoes. From Florida I wouldn't buy a boot for the snow season
I wore NB my entire life because they were made in my home town and they had a factory second store. I would have killed for a Nike or British Knight
They look like 1980s Avia shoes. They were my favorites at that time.
This one is from the New Balance community: compare all 6 versions of the 990s series. That would be extremely interesting to watch.
What about the suede versions of these models? Do you think suede is a better finish to go with in sneakers and just skip the poor quality grain and plastic coating of the “leather” finish?
Loved the video.
I’m sorry, I cannot agree or co-sign that standard Nike leather is good at that price point. In my opinion No Nike should cost $150. + unless it has sneaker tech like air, zoom… etc.
Preston you know that the real reason that people pay these prices and more for ALD is because of the exclusivity in the name, and bragging rights.
Junk quality is junk quality 😂
You could see your smirk 😂
as you were trying to be as nice as possible and not trash these as basically the same crap sneaker. 😂

You should cut apart the Rick owens kiss boots
review barefoot boots like those made by Gaucho Ninja!!
Hey @RoseAnvil i know that you have A LOT of requests on what shoes/boots you should review next but i really recommend to review some portuguese shoe brands. Portugal shoe quality is on the same level of italian and spanish dress shoes, we use very high quality leather and our shoes are all handmade and well crafted. As a portuguese it really frustrates me how underrated our shoes are compared to our european neighbours, when we have really high quality with mostly fair prices.
Hey. Rose! Could you please review a boot from the German brand that's called Meindl? The model I'd suggest is called "Perfect". Thank you for your videos!
REQUEST: Loro Piano - Open Walks & 3 tiers of cheaper copies. Aurelien - City Loafer, Scarosso - Arturo & Maison Clo - Suede Chukka Boot
The tan ALD x New Balance 991. This pair is smooth leather rather than the common suede 991s. Want to see if the made in England ones are actually better leather.
you should do from the first boots
Please do a video on lost and found Jordan 1s
And as for me, my 550 ald and 650r ald have different quality to each other. And saw different leather qualities on 650 depending on what country it was released.
Which one did you like the most
I recently looked at Reebok Classics and K-Swiss Classics. I never had the Reeboks but was a big fan of the K-Swiss. I owned many pairs of them back in the late'80s and early '90s. The originals of both were nice shoes with soft leather. The modern variants are horrid. The leather was as cheap looking and feeling as could be and the shoes were so stiff I can't imagine how uncomfortable they would be.
Try to test leather quality on Nike Air Max 1 Patta Waves Monarch please
where did you buy those pants from? 7:05
I want to see a top, or ideally full, grain leather option.
If you're looking for more shoes to cut, have you thought about looking into barefoot shoes, like Vivobarefoot? I think starting with Vivo would be best because they seem to be the most "hyped" and their shoes range into debatable prices for what supposed materials they use.
Any plans for a Trickers Stow review?
Your leather ratings are very generous
Great Video, where’s toaster at ?
Would love to see u cut open New Balance 928 walking shoe.
To any sponsors out there: I actually watch Rose Anvil promos. Sometimes due to interest, sometimes just to support RA.
Can you do some NB made in UK and Made in USA Vs standard NB.
would you be willing to cut a reebok club c 85 in half?
For the ALDs, the slight difference in looks & material for the price diff is more on the NOT worth it side, imho.
Especially the price drop from $130. to $49. for the regulars.
Review the diehard work boot
Match these against a Beckett Simonon or a greats or an Oliver Cabell
Sneaker. For quality in the 150.- 199. Price point 🤔
