I’m sure others have already pointed it out, but … it was cool to see the Complex Sneaker Show give you (Chris/Nightwing) a shout out on their show. Giving you props for your breakdown on the Book 1. They acknowledged that you’re the best at breaking down tech. Facts
It’s a bummer that they don’t use different last because a couple of Jordan’s I purchased overseas to play ball in fit me way better as a PF or EP. US releases are really narrow and painful to break in and I stop doing that to save my feet. FIGHT THE ALGORITHM!!!
Anything to help the channel! I’ve been a big fan of your channel for a long time and it’s definitely one of my favorites! So I will help out whenever I watch your videos.. keep up the great content! 👍🏻
I think you're correct in thinking EP means Engineered Performance. Here in the Philippines, some of the Nike performance shoes have that in their boxes upon purchasing them when you check for yourself.
Bummed about the change to the lasts - I was hoping to get a slightly wider fit on my Book 1s - but I’m still planning to grab another pair in a different color. Thanks Nightwing!
Thank you to you for your recommendation a while ago, I have been a regular customer of ID4 shoes. Purchased my Air Jordan 36's PF models and Air Joran 38's PF models from them with no issues whatsoever. Great communication, good prices, GREAT items, and FAST shipping even being overseas. Hell, ID4shoes shipping has even been FASTER than Nike's shipping in a few instances.
I got the Jordan 38 pf from id4shoes and I purchased the aqua 38 from Nike. The pf version is still going strong after numerous wears with little show of sole separation but I had to return the aquas because the translucent rubber ripped on the little v cut of the sole after playing in them once. Solid rubber>>>translucent
I really like the old school uncluttered back to basics style of this sneakers but will be waiting for more colourways before getting a pair. It's very Nike Air Ship in it's simplicity which is it's most endearing design feature. Another top tip info there Chris about clear outsoles. I heard about the tight squeeze sizing so am going to try these in-store for sure. I might get a ton of horse🐎shoe marks on my ankles from kicking but they're easier to get rid off than one huge mighty duck🦆
I just got these delivered today! Smooth nubuck, grippy, comfy and just a nice combo of old and new (no XDR). I love em and hoping they drop another dope colorway. Oh, and bring on all the lil ponies. I'll be selling glue in no time.
Yes stockx has both version of your color way the clear version and the ep which is labeled as white outsole for this colorway and for our us version it’s labeled translucent outsole
For the algorithm! Haha. Honestly I like the solid outsole on this color. It feels like it matches the vision of it being a shoe that can be worn on and off the court. Maybe that's the route I'll go once I can try a pair and know my correct size.
As a massive Devin Booker fan from his game on court and his fashion sense off the court, I’m stoked to see so many variants of this model. I’d love to get my hands on it, but it’s damn near impossible to obtain in Australia without going for resale.
Seriously, though Chris, keep going doing these! I would love to see a review on the Voltage Purple Air Max Plus that got released a few weeks back. It's based on the 2018 release but based on one of the original sketches of the TNS.
Got the white outsole on my mirage v1 colorway. The white outsole just looks better for these shoes too, and they barely pick up dust after i've been using them outdoors for two weeks now.
If you ever feel like doing a nostalgia throwback review of something from your collection that you haven't made a video for, we are here for it. Would love to see some deep dives of what you got man.
Really digging the look of the Book 1. Finding I like Nike and Jordan for aesthetics, but if I want to hoop, I'll stick to Adidas for now on price and tech
There's actually an explanation of clear rubber, in Asia it's stated that or peak performance like the traction clear rubber is actually better because it's more sticky aspect. Meaning it sticked to the ground more while normal rubber may seem better but once it went too hard it just slips down rather than row down. However, clear rubber is a lot less durable and here in Asia ppl play in the streets more so that why many models use XDR rubber instead.

For the algorithm!! Love your contents Chris.
Love the Nike Book 1
Thx for the info on PF & EP, didn’t know that, very informative.
very informative, that's why you're the best sneaker channel.
Love that you did this and explained the difference! My guy always giving us game on all the kicks!
Fantastic content as always. Definitely one the spots I check out before buying a new shoe for indoor and outdoor.
Anything to help the channel! I’ve been a big fan of your channel for a long time and it’s definitely one of my favorites! So I will help out whenever I watch your videos.. keep up the great content! 👍🏻
Thanks Chris for another nice review!
book's shoe definitely has that old school vibe look wherein we can wear the shoe on court and off court. might get them on sale in the future.
Hooped in these last weekend, they're great!
Gotta love the colorway... The way they used that shade of blue is fire!!!
Best review channel. Not close
You guys rock!! Keep it up please! Thank you both
Wear Testers doing gods work 🫡
Great review! Hoping we get some of the other colorways that Book has worn soon!
I think you're correct in thinking EP means Engineered Performance. Here in the Philippines, some of the Nike performance shoes have that in their boxes upon purchasing them when you check for yourself.
I’ve only had one translucent outsold shoe. The KD 9 elite. Traction amazing for 5 steps. Ever since then I haven’t had a translucent outsole shoe.
I was actually asked the duck horse question in a job interview... I didn't get the job 😂
The shoe looks really good and you know Chris here in the Philippines XDR are more reasonable to buy price wise. Also durability, thanks for the info

You guys are the reason I get excited for basketball shoes
FOR THE ALGO!!!!! Keep doing what you do guys, much love
i like this colorway of the book 1 specially for a casual wearr

Just got my clear sole ones and love them. They look even better in hand!
This rare colourway has me tempted to get a pair of Book 1 for casual wear as well.
Great review as always. I got this pair after missing on the first to check out the new model.
I always appreciate the educational content!

Have these arriving tomorrow with the clear sole. Love the color!
Big supporter of the channel! Love your content!

I had the PG 5 EP XdR solid rubber and that traction lasted me a year and a half on playing outdoors 3-4 days a week.
Yes stockx has both version of your color way the clear version and the ep which is labeled as white outsole for this colorway and for our us version it’s labeled translucent outsole
Love the content and the education side of what you are doing guys!!
Very useful info, thanks to all involved in making the video!

more power Chris! I have the same pair with solid rubber and it’s crazy ass good.
Love the look of the silhouette but waiting on a better colorway. But the pair reviewed are a decent blue
Appreciate both of you for educating us. Stay up

The blue is like a denim blue. Nice for casual wear too.
Appreciate you guys. I use your reviews into factoring whether I buy a shoe
Seriously, though Chris, keep going doing these! I would love to see a review on the Voltage Purple Air Max Plus that got released a few weeks back. It's based on the 2018 release but based on one of the original sketches of the TNS.
Book 1 Mirage V2 UK release uses clear rubber outsoles. Nice shoes and always love your videos.❤
Got the white outsole on my mirage v1 colorway. The white outsole just looks better for these shoes too, and they barely pick up dust after i've been using them outdoors for two weeks now.
Full size up and using them for hooping and it was a great choice
Really informative review! ID4Shoes is definitely the real deal, and I, too, prefer the solid rubber.
I love this colourway of the Book 1.

Thank you all the information, appreciate all what you guys do.
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for your reviews
Clear soles gang here!.. 😝
Decent shoes but I’ll wait for them to hit the clearance rack!!. Thanks for the vid.
We got your back bro!
Love your channel! ❤
Was not planning on getting this but the old school vibe & simple colorway hit me😍
I know clear soles have been around a long time, but it still feels incongruous with the classic aesthetic on the rest of the shoe.
These look great🔥I would have tried them out if they had forefoot zoom. Also would buy it if it came in a mid/high.
Love the information. It's always helpful.
Loving these Book1s and the content, keep it up 🙌
Always enjoy your video! Thanks
Great video! Thanks for the content
Played in these and 🤌🏽. So comfortable out the box.
Love the channel!
Another great video!!
Thanks for the info, prefer the xdrs outsoles
YEURRR I want the books but I wish I could find em on sale. Gonna have to wait a bit and see
Keep up the great work y’all! Great video
For the damn algorithm! Thanks for putting me onto Move insoles. Game changer!
Awesome review as always. Interesting shoe, will try to check them out if I see them instore.
For a shoe that looks like an AF1, solid outsoles complements the design a lot better
Really digging the look of the Book 1. Finding I like Nike and Jordan for aesthetics, but if I want to hoop, I'll stick to Adidas for now on price and tech
I love clear outsole and will keep on buying them
Great info!
Great review true honesty opinion .
Love the review. I’m still on the fence with the shoe, but I will take functionality over looks.
Thanks for the info!!!!
I don't really have a preferences between clear or solid outsoles. I'm pretty blessed to play on good courts!
Now this colorway is where it's at. I'm still not sure about the silhouette, in terms of if I like it or not but this colorway is dope as hell.
Another amazing video
Love the channel
Book 1s are my favs, I have to get that Ashen Slate colorway
Love the video!
Amazing vid as always appreciate the insight!
Thx. I need this info. Book 1 blue looks noice
Reviews are the best in the game 🔥

Dope video!!!!
