Who's watching this in 2018?
Rafael Nava me
17:21 hurts my eyes as a sneakerhead, but i understand its purpose
south beach color way is played out
same >.
XxBLKMAMBAxX he meant when he bent the shoe in like that..
TWEfilms i see you what you mean bro
Dude, Thank YOU for all these reviews. And don't worry, take care of your wrist, we'll definitely still be here giving you support, brother! Not too many people do what you do and you have developed quite a community on RUclips and the internet in general. Keep up the great work!
No man thankyou! Defintely shedding light on the elements we all as players need to play our type of game. Whether its speed, traction or cushioning you cover everything and it is very much appreciated as you can see from your views or subscribers. Thanks alot
i appretiatie you making these videos. you're the only person that i can find that's non biased and knows what they're talking about when it comes to performance shoes. heal fast man
"which is like running on bricks" hahahah man cracked up me on that one. always love the honesty and straightforwardness
thanks for the video mate, you're so comprehensive with each shoe and very clear about what each shoe presents. i have absolutely no idea how people can still be asking questions like if the hyperposite is good at a guard position in comments section when you just said they'd be great for a C.
ur the only shoe reviewer that shows on court action. Personally, I think that's what people wanna see. Keep it up man!
I stated in the video very clearly that there is a cut off date and the Kobe 8 were release well after the cut off date. Please listen to what is said in the videos before asking questions that are already covered.
Great year with lots of very helpful reviews! You might not getting any younger (as you said) but you're getting wiser! I wish you to stay strong, good luck with the hand and speedy recovery!
The video looked long, but when i started watching i couldn't stop! The time went by hella fast! Love the vids!
Thanks for working it nightwing! You were my "go-to" channel for buying ball kicks!
Strong recap of 2012 in sneakers. Better than any other site by far.
thanks for all the vids nightwing, i appreciate that u've taken the time to show which shoes perform best
Appreciate it. I use a Nikon J1 and just a regular lamp with florescent lighting.
Another great vid man. Thanks for another season helping me choose which shoes to play well on court
Its not about what is better, its all about what YOU need.
I'm sad to see the Kobe 7 on your "worst of the year" mentions, though I understand where you're coming from with your problems (these things are subjective, after all). The Kobe 7 Elite (maybe there is a significant difference between the Elite and regular versions, not sure) has been my go-to hoops sneaker for the past 8 months. Everything about it seems like it was tailored specifically for me.
Thanks for everything you do, Nightwing! I always get excited when I see a new video in my inbox!
Have had the Kd 5s for 2 months now and every single time i wear them its a new blister on my left foot. Wore them for the last time this morning and have a new blister, but finally got my super flys in.
The CP3 VI are the most comfortable basketball shoes I've ever worn. I feel like I have so much more control over my feet when I play in them. Copped them in the christmas colourway it is FIRE!
i usually see 20minutes. and skip the video. but i stayed. and watched the whole thing. very informative. and about half of those shoes are on sale and i want to get them. and after al the stuff you said. just makes them alot better. because cushion and breathability is something i look for in a shoe. thanks. good video. keep it up
Awesome reviews bro, covers all the subject areas, nice and detailed. You also distinguish between actual performance review and your personal preferences which not many people do properly. Shout out from the UK
thank you so much for your review every time.
i always wait for your review before actually purchasing one.
a little surprised to see 9 elite on top on x on forward category.
actually anxiously waiting for my id x...
hopefully it would work fine for a guard guy as well...
also wants to recommend people to try cp3.
you mentioned about poor heel lockdown but that would not affect the overall satisfaction?
big up from japan and rest well.
we need another strong performance review year...
Under Armour def. makes really great foam cushy shoes! i really appreciate your time and quality in your vids, your right, there the best looking Kobe's IMHO, the outrigger is top notch, zoom is really responsive but damn the lockdown sometimes kills the fore part of my top foot!
I bought Lebron 9 elite for bball after watching your previous review. Awesome review as always. Thank you.
CP3 6's. ~The best grip,very aggressive,fast and amazing response!
The best i ever i wore until now as a playmaker/guard.
Thanks man. I appreciate your help. Your reviews have really helped me choose what sneakers to get. Again thanks
Im not mad, just asking if there was an issue with me liking a number of kicks even if they arent targeted toward my specific position on the floor.
Its like you're having a conversation with my video self lol.
LMFAO Mr. Nightwing @ 5:13 "alot people obviously.....don't understand what a review is" xD Great video as well as the organization that you put into it. I hope the Kobe 8 will be on 2013. Thanks
Great vid bro. You have the best videos on youtube and the time you put in really shows. Really appreciate it. Keep it up!
Isaiah thomas wearing that reebok bricks on the court, but performed really well. If he goes for Nike, i think his crossover and performance will be crazy
great review!!!! I was looking for a great basketball shoes since I've always been getting the hot spot whenever I play ball and you pin pointed the issue right out of one of the shoes! Thank you!
Awesome video nightwing, whenever i need a performance review on a certain sneaker i go to your videos to get the review. By the way, didnt u say the CP3 .VI lacks ankle support?
Really nice vid dude. I hear you are the guru of performance review on the interwebs and i totally agree. Keep it going!! Bballers around the world get a lot of help from your sharing of knowledge. Peace
I said they lacked heel lockdown. Forefoot fit I loved, you can double check the review if you'd like. Just bc I love a shoe doesnt mean I wont critique it.
can't wait for your 2013 line up!!!
haha , 2014 is coming . it is fantasitic ! i see some new fashion brand shoes at Buistore.co , gifts are one the way , expecting !!!
Hey man, thank you very much for taking your time in your life to show us your videos.Thank you very much,keep up the good work!!!!
Sick video! love the shoes. I'm 6'4" and about 150 and play Shooting Guard. I was just wondering if the chris paul VI's would be good for me
You did a good job in this video. Hope you heal up. I love playing ball and sneakers like you. Like you, I'm not getting any younger. I'm in my mid 40s. I just started playing more lately. I hope to play as long as I can. I also like trying on different basketball shoes.
From this video I will definitely be getting CP3 VI and KD V (NIKEiD version).
Hey nightwing2303,
awesome shoes in the guard category, the reason why i ordered the under armour torch yesterday is you, thanks a lot man!
Love the videos I've picked my last 2 pair of basketball sneakers based on your reviews right now I'm wearing the air Jordan 2012 fly over and I got them for $70.00usd which is a steal but keep up the good work homie
I'm saving up for my CP3 VI's :) and thanks a lot for your hard work. it helped me tons and i truly admire the passion that you have for shoes! Keep makin good vids!
Just copped the Aero Flights and the ride is a lot stiffer than I thought, not sure if I still need to break them in as I've only hooped in them twice. I'd definitely recommend the Kobe 8 over them as well as this year's Hyperdunk.
Yea Nightwing's videos are awesome. Reviews for ppl who actually ball in their sneaks. I'm hoping we get retros of Adidas Feet You Wear Top Ten 2010. They were so comfy. Also, Adidas Gil Zero Lows. I'm a sucker for low tops too, as a PG they give me so much freedom. I hope they retro the Gils as well.
oh men, we have the same taste! that reebok is also my favorite of all time. The comfort when I chase the ball is awesome! I love that shoes. I can't find any here in the Philippines.
It could, the shoes arent defined solely as those type of shoes. If a shoe has what you need then use it.
Nightwing. i stumbled upon your videos a few days ago and i cant stop watching them! best reviews for shoes ive seen yet!! what do you think about the 2012 nike hyperdunk hi top?? im a shooting guard...any recomendations??
this must have been a hard list to put together this year! thanks for sharing with us nightwing
Yo Nightwing, Great Job this year with all your sneaker videos. I love ur reviews. Cant wait for the kobe 8 review.
I'm a 5'6/5'7 120 lb combo guard. Due to the shape and arch of my foot, Nikes/Jordans usually don't work for me unless they have unbelievable padding; however, when they do have that cushion, they are usually heavy on the feet which is undesirable for a guard. I would appreciate suggestions because from watching many of your videos, you seem like quite the expert. Thanks
the spines are great, and so are the kd vs, the kd iv's were very good, only problem is ankle support!
Have had Kobe 8s for since first release. Amazing shoe definetly one of the top
Where did you get that colorway of the Jordan CP3? I love them. Think it will be my sneak for 2013 men's league. Also, do I spy the new Ninja Turtle figures? haha those are sick. But yo, with a name like Nightwing, where is the Batman figures? You a fan of Batman TAS and the Nolan films, bro?
GREAT video as always man. Was really looking forward to this, and i'm psyched that the CP6's were #1! I've been wanting to buy purely based off of the traction ALONE, but this just solidifies my decision to buy em. Keep it up man, but try to heal up as well! Lol. Peace.
loving all your reviews man. You are getting so in depth into the details its just amazing. I am a big supporter man keep doing what you're doing :D
great video! keep up the good work, man! amazing in detail video. keep it up! and get that hand checked..
you just sold me the CP3.VI, i was about to go for the KD V's ( I already own the IV's, and besides the pinching, the fit is actually great), but now I finally made a decision
keep it up!
i just ordered the cp3 6's because of how good your reviews are, i hope there good man
Nightwing, Just found your site and videos. Thanks for sharing your honest experienced-based reviews and thoughts. May I ask what camera and lights you use? Everything looks great bro.
He's right about the nike hyperdunks. I think they were the best shoes I ever worn. My whole team had them so they're a great all position shoe
Love your reviews man! Always got great info!
thanks bro, glad I could help!
U do the best shoe reviews, great information on how shoes perform on court.
i agree with you with the cp3, its a great shoe, takes alot of pressure off my legs and knees...this is a solid basketball, the heel takes time to get used to but other than that, its a nearly a perfect basketball shoe.
I was WAITING for this video ALL YEAR!
the underarmor charge bb was a great shoe for me, it was very comfortable shoe!
thanks for the insight on the performance of these kicks. i gotta get them cp3 to hoop in. good video
subscribed as soon as you said that reebok questions are the best to play in
Amazing video, top quality, #1 basketball performance sneaker reviewer hands down...makes me wish I could still ball like I did before lol
Good job on the reviews. I can really tell you know your stuff. Quick questions though, I noticed on your website you have the D.Rose 3 as your #2 in the Top 10 of 2012, however in this vid, you only have it as #4 even for the guard category? Just noticed because I am deciding if I should get them. Thanks! Also, what was your opinion on the Answer 5?
Looking forward to the Kobe 8 performance review!! cant wait!
You too, thank you!
so excited when i saw that the video was 24 mins lol ... , keep at it bro !
Just curious... what positon do you play on the court? BTW love your videos... thank you for all the wonderful information you give!
Ohhh man great vid!!! iwas elated that the kd 5 were soo good. Im a SF and my fav player is kd, but I was dissapointed in the 4. Thanks soo much man im glad im subscribed to you! Gonna go get those kd's!!
I have them also and i play the 1 and 3 man and they can be used in the 1 - 4 man in my opinion. The olympics look great with red laces.
great video man, really informative and I love the fact that your real, you don't bs around keep up the great work!
Great video as always bought a pair of cp3.6 after watching this, but suggestion best retro's of all time, but keep doing what you're doing
I wear CP3 Point 6's in lacrosse, absolutely love them, very versitile
ive been waiting for this since like july lol. it was a plesant surprise when i logged onto youtube.
I replied already to the comment you are responding to so I wont bother repeating myself but my opinion has been stated. Im a 1-2 and I love the soldier 6.
had the KD 5 since the day it came out, love it but Kobe 8 is also nice
I need shoes primarily for explosiveness and cushion. Especially for that second jump
Awesome video, man! Thanks for sharing the knowledge with us! Thanks for giving us your super adequate opinion! Thanks for your dedication! You are one of the best in this business, if not the best! And that's for real! Keep up with the awesome job you doing! Waiting to see more from you in 2013! Salute!
playing through pain to performance test the kobe 8 sounds just like kobe lol. great video btw!
Yo Nightwing kind of surprised about the cp3.6. I really wanted to get it around october but the performance review you talked about the shoe not having a lot of cushion (which i need for my shins) and not very good heel lockdown. Next thing you know i see it as your number 1 without noting the flaws stated earlier. Just pure praise. How did it end up being your favorite shoe?
Nightwing while you are recovering you should review little stuff like shorts you have played in or socks.
Already have, and it was in the video.
@jazzman23fly if i critique something that doesnt mean i dislike it personally. This list is MY PERSONAL OPINION and feelings, NOT a review. Heel lockdown was lacking, not overall lockdown. Ventilation isnt something i need. Cushion is minimal and foam, i personally like it & stated it as a fact not as a negative attribute. Thanks for the sarcasm.
Really enjoy your videos, is the air Jordan project finished??
Good vid as always. Hope you get over your injury
i just died when u flexed the southbeaches
I totally agree that ZigTech sucks for basketball. I had the Zig Pro Futures last year and they felt like bricks. However, the tech isn't absolutely horrid for walking around, which is what I use them for now.
nice job nightwing love ur reviews u been helping with many of my choices
You should do a video on the top performing retro shoes.
They arent a Forward only shoe but since LeBron is a Forward I placed it in that section.
Bro, I love your reviews I'm your biggest fan, your videos helped me a lot in choosing some kicks, your channel is the best in sneakerheadchannels on youtube. Dude i want to ask you, which is better KDIV or Melo8 and where can i get KDs?
im sure the kobe 8 will be your top hoop shoe soon. glad i passed on the kobe 7 my kobe 6 are still going strong for a year. ill wait for the cp3 at the nike outlet lol good video
i could watch your vids all day
Love the variety of brands. So many people just assume Nike or Jordan are the only good basketball shoes.
