I love dunks, but I hate how they've turned into a limited edition sneaker that sells out quickly. Wish that would just stop so I can afford them and easily cop them.
@@gtvision3897 wish they weren't so hyped up like they are nowadays. I remembered back 7 years ago I found dunks sitting at Marshalls for $50 a pair and now there are no dunks listed under $100. The resell market is whats killing the enjoyment of sneakers to tell you the truth.
Starting to happen now, the materials aren't great but a decent amount of GR colourways are sitting now and if you like the style they're fair value for retail
Depends which ones. These cheap shitty ones they keep throwing out in loads of colourways then definitely. Dunno why people are paying so much for pandas & unc when the materials are dreadful.
Rule number one: don’t buy resale prices, so just buy the Nike by you dunks since they are much higher quality and SOO much cheaper from the resale prices.
As an SB collector (been collecting since 06) i live that they’re hype again, but hate it too bc i can’t get any sb for retail bc we have no SB shops in Columbus. Also, only regular dunk i will wear are the PRM line. Also rain will not ruin suede, sure completely drenching the shoe in water COULD damage the suede, but a little rain won’t hurt it. Just wait for it to dry and then brush it with a suede brush.
@@Blazes2much 100% facts. I remember back in 2013-17 i was grabbing SB’s for under retail DS. Now those same dunks i was grabbing are going for 3-5x what retail was.
Same here bro.... I collect sb dunks few years ago they wernt so hard to get.... now there are to many collectors. But I use my shoes I just don't collect them.
Number 4 rule is very applicable to Panda Dunks. A lot of people are still paying a huge resell for this pair even if the quality is bad. Nike Dunk by you version is way way better for a cheaper price. But yeah to each his own just stating my observation.
Just picked up the Miami hurricane dunks and styled it with some black cargo fashion nova jeans and a Miami hurricane lace up hoodie whole outfit was under $200 and shit is fire
I buyed leatuer dunks for a reason. I buy leather dunks for rainy or snowing ocaisions because i mostly wear nubuck and sueded nike/jordan shoes. And there cheaper if there in sale and tons of colourways to pick.
@@brendensmith7251 ok, because idk where to get creasing protectors in my country, I got my first W yesterday (dunk valerian blue) so I am scared and idk about size at all.
i remember copping dunks for like 80 bucks around 6 years ago and i would really enjoy skating in them but now im afraid to even wear them like once a week because of the price 😭
What you mean they are wider than the jordan 1s? Dunks are kinda narrow if you have wide feet id suggest you go half size up, no matter if you hate creases or not. Ordering half size down will definitely not fit...
Is it worth it to go up a half size so they fit me longer? I’m 14 and wear size 8.5 which is a little big for me. I don’t want to spend 100+ on a pair of shoes that will only last me a few months. I was thinking about getting size 9s. What do I do?
Great vid bro I got panda highs and the purple lows dunks and I have air Jordan mids industrial blue love them all bro. Keep up the good work. Peace out.
i tought u will mention that dont buy highs,i respact that u didnt say that. they may not be as hyped as lows but that dosent matter if u rlly into shoes in general.
Got the “Why So Sad” and “Chlorophyll” SBs on the way. They both so 🔥and SB truly are the best skate shoe. Quality is amazing and I get to look fly while I shred
If you want to keep your sneakers looking new, invest in a good pair of cedar shoe trees. The cedar will absorb all the moister out of the leather while letting your sneakers dry straight with no creases. Going down half a size is never a good idea unless you want problems with your feet. You'll only end up with corns and bunions on your toes and feet. If your feet hurt while wearing them, you won't wear them. I know, I work in podiatry. (Look it up)
I own a lot of sneakers and I would say if you know how to match up your clothes with your sneakers it’ll matter what season it is and I we’re number skinny jeans I’m sorry I don’t wear no dumb loose jeans with my Jordan one high OG‘s my Jordan one mids my dunk highs my Adidas pumas Fila‘s Reeboks Yeezy‘s Nike Airmax is LeBron‘s I got like 150 pairs of sneakers bro and I’m 40 years old and I say as long as you know how to dress but you’re right if you live on a budget and you don’t make money then you don’t buy sneakers that you can’t match with the clothes you can’t afford the bud because I got Hella clothes It’s always good having a job if you want to match up your clothes with your sneakers so I highly recommend you having a job
Actually rule number 3 isn't just for dunks, EVERY TYPE OF SHOES whether it'd be nike, adidas, nb, dc, etc. always think of the outfit you're going to wear w/ it when buying a specific one, every shoe will look good depending on how you wear your whole outfit with it
This could be hack for some. If you plan to keep them for a long time, just buy the "by you" you can copy the colorway and material just as well. Stop paying for resell price if you plan on wearing them.
if you worry that if you go down a half a size they won’t fit shop in woman’s they are more narrow and crease protected while still getting a good deal
So I just recently ran into ur channel and I gotta say ur tips are pretty on point GT. Ur a little biased but that's ok. You like what u like but I dig the vibes tho. Good job bro keep it up!! Def subscribed 😎
I know it's a hustle but I hate shoe collectors who buy and resell.... plus those collectors who have like 3 pairs of the same shoe and don't even use them. I actually use my sb dunks... except the mummy's 🤣.... shoes are just to sick to wear.... maybe this Halloween.

Yea wish they were a little easier to get

If you can't afford them you should not have them

@@SamiUddin13even in 2019 I could go to a sports department store and see loads of dunks sitting on the shelves. Good times
Rule number 1 don’t buy Dunks unless it’s retail. Dunks are made with cheap materials and don’t hold up not worth it.
Depends which ones. These cheap shitty ones they keep throwing out in loads of colourways then definitely. Dunno why people are paying so much for pandas & unc when the materials are dreadful.
Where can I buy retail I only find em at coolkicks
@@kidsdontdobrack9166 cool kicks is where I cop my dunks trust me you’ll never go back once you cop dunks for retail
@@TheCrystalFrogs ohh word u fw cook kicks too either cool kicks cookies n kicks are pretty good too I just hate having to spend 600 on a regular dunk
All Jordan’s are made with cheap materials people don’t buy dunks for quality 😂😂😂
400 on DUNKS!!! Na that's some jordan 4 prices fr
get some white carbon platnum dunk there like 100 they are so worth it
Rule number one: don’t buy resale prices, so just buy the Nike by you dunks since they are much higher quality and SOO much cheaper from the resale prices.
i live in murica
By you shoes take like 3 months to arrive
Quality is noticeable
today i just picked up lucky green and white high dunks

CAN YOU WEAR BAGGY PANTS WITH SB DUNKS?
If you have narrow feet go down half size to normal dunks and tts for SBs

Copped a pair in golden moss and white with gum soles for $60 at the Nike Clearance Store 🔥
Panda’s are retail lmao. You can walk into an outlet and they have ‘em. Also resell is almost retail 💀💀💀

Thanks bro 🙏
Are they creasing much?
@@pufing9614 honestly they have very little creasing because I have crease guards and I put shoe trees in them when I’m not wearing them
@@brendensmith7251 ok, because idk where to get creasing protectors in my country, I got my first W yesterday (dunk valerian blue) so I am scared and idk about size at all.

@@carreraman8364 I made this comment 6 months ago, I agree with you lmao I only wear my pandas sometimes.
Im just wearing a black black one now and tryna style it or have an idea
My favorite dunk is a hob nob in a fresh brew.
Rule #1 Don’t give any credence to what this man says. You wear what you want and how you want. 👌
Plsss make a video on how to wear a nice outfit with high dunks
Great vid bro I got panda highs and the purple lows dunks and I have air Jordan mids industrial blue love them all bro. Keep up the good work. Peace out.

You will eventuality stop growing..
i tought u will mention that dont buy highs,i respact that u didnt say that. they may not be as hyped as lows but that dosent matter if u rlly into shoes in general.
I have already saved enough and I am thinking of buying the why so sad sb what do you think ?
I got some sb dunks high kentucky iso wich is not that expensive but i love them ^^
Steal of a shoe, quality much better than game Royal regular dunk
Got the “Why So Sad” and “Chlorophyll” SBs on the way. They both so 🔥and SB truly are the best skate shoe. Quality is amazing and I get to look fly while I shred
I was just looking ar the chlorophyll, hows the quality like on it?
0:36 what’s the one all the way to the left
Those are the viotech dunk low my man.
TBH, there are no rules for dunks.
Are Nike Retro Dunk Blue and whites good?

AINT NO RULES TO THIS SHIT 😂 STOP TRYINA FORCED TRENDS WEIRDO
how was he forcing anything, he just gave some advice
I dont understandi tried a pair of dunks and i needed to go a size up
My fave dunk is dunk low championship read
i was thinkin bout gettin reps for the gym red dunks cuz they like 500$ in my size like im high schooler ion got money like that should i buy reps?
I just bought my first pair of reps and honestly nobody would ever know. If they do im pretty sure they wont care enough to make jokes
Yes
Just do it, nobody’s gonna know as long as you go with 1:1 reps not DH gate 😂
@@uzilondon9278 stop telling ppl about reps then they gonna be hoarding all the reps lol
Where u get them
Im a boy and just got some retro panda dunks but there women’s shoe is there any big difference between the boy and girl ones
The red instead of black on the tongue
I recommend tts but if u don't won't creases half size down wtf
What you think about the union dunks
Why does mine had two laces
I can’t get over how much u remind me of joe la puma lol
suade is leather, but lesser quality in general, because the fibers in the leather is not as tight and close together. it looks nice tho
Unfortunately for most of nike's leather they use that same section but shave the top and cover it in plastic with fake leather texture
@@bntrs yep
Why does bro have off white bred 4s behind him lol
Bro really says not to wear dunks in the rain when they literally skate shoes goffy man
exactly… like… if i got my suedes for skatin then you better be damn sure i’m wearing them in the rain idc
Good video, I tend to lean towards leather if I pay resale for a shoe, which I’m steered away from. Good points bro keep ‘em coming
Duck outta here ain’t no rules xD
I own a lot of sneakers and I would say if you know how to match up your clothes with your sneakers it’ll matter what season it is and I we’re number skinny jeans I’m sorry I don’t wear no dumb loose jeans with my Jordan one high OG‘s my Jordan one mids my dunk highs my Adidas pumas Fila‘s Reeboks Yeezy‘s Nike Airmax is LeBron‘s I got like 150 pairs of sneakers bro and I’m 40 years old and I say as long as you know how to dress but you’re right if you live on a budget and you don’t make money then you don’t buy sneakers that you can’t match with the clothes you can’t afford the bud because I got Hella clothes It’s always good having a job if you want to match up your clothes with your sneakers so I highly recommend you having a job

i like the dunk lotterys

Can someone recommend some color for dunks? (for reference)
I mean I dont like how u dissed on my 75s, I love the NBA 75th chicago
My dunks arrived today, I ordered size 12 and i am size 12, theyre like a 10 istg
dude got fake bred offwhite in the back lol
Fav Dunk: Pass-Port Dunk High
Good tips bro
How many of you wear dunk for 1 year ?? How it is after 1 yr
Yet Vans makes waterproof MTEs with Suede on them.
Number one rule. If you cop them, rock them. Nobody cares about your trophy collection but you.
Reps over resale
Best dunk is the golden rod
if you don't mind me asking what r those 4s behind you?
there off white 4's but dont know the colour way could be cement gray and some white
Thx for the tips, keep it up
Im going to buy the dunk x off white lot 26
Yo guys ima skate in some dunks
its no rules where your shoes how you want
i got pandas on drop lmao
Paid 190$ for BarberShops, fire af
if you worry that if you go down a half a size they won’t fit shop in woman’s they are more narrow and crease protected while still getting a good deal
nah
Rule #1
Skate them
or generally beat em up. Dunks were made to be beat up (and i think they look better beat up too)
Look one should always wear their however they choose , there’s no rule on that
Got a pair of dunks for 30$ the other day 😂
From Nike I should say
Rule 1 - stop watching silly videos about what to do with your shoes
This literally just applies to every shoe
thoughts on the new ocean dunk?
Rule number 4 - if you dont have the money to buy a 1000$ pair of shoes and u want them just buy reps
So I just recently ran into ur channel and I gotta say ur tips are pretty on point GT. Ur a little biased but that's ok. You like what u like but I dig the vibes tho. Good job bro keep it up!! Def subscribed 😎
Use shoe shields like an actual sneaker 👟 head
My favorite dunk is the fruity pebble x LeBron James dunk
I know it's a hustle but I hate shoe collectors who buy and resell.... plus those collectors who have like 3 pairs of the same shoe and don't even use them. I actually use my sb dunks... except the mummy's 🤣.... shoes are just to sick to wear.... maybe this Halloween.
rule number one, fuck what anyone else likes or tells you to wear, wear what you like.
Pro tip, buy crease guards!!!! They are 100% worth the investment.
