Am I the only person on earth who appreciated the folded tongue? It gave it character and made it more recognizable. Also. I almost like this shoe as much as the union AJ1. To me, this is sneaker of the year.
I think the tongue is horrible. The rest of the shoe is so unique, there was no reason to take it further. The yellow stitching couldve been used around the jordan patch on a r3gular tongue or for where the wing is stitched on. Wouldve made the yellow stitching more visable and wouldve made it flames imo.
Why would it be a negative thing that the resale value dropped? That's only on the viewpoint of a reseller, especially the bot ones. For a potential buyer, that's a damn good thing. Same goes for any other hype sneaker
I like this. Proper test of integrity and look. Value is an obvious one. But I buy my shoes for keeps. I just bought some of these for 675 DS 😬 love em though. Definitely stiff out the box.
A lot of people hate on the alternate laces but, this video got me feeling them pumpkin laces hard! Can I get a black vs alternate vote!?! On the laces I got a pair coming and I think I’m going with the ones shown here!
Awesome review. I love this shoe I made the modifications you did with the tongue and the yellow shoe string went a little further and cut out the triangle on the clear side straps. They look sick. Thanks for the follow up review.
Yoo I was here when you were doing reviews on the roof and parking garage top deck, You had a pun and scheme every other sentence. It was definitely UUUNNNCIVILIZZZED lol. While I do miss the old days I’m proud of your growth!! Keep up the good work ‼️💯
@@marcop.525 That was me saying playskool My energy changed 1100 percent. I still would wear seersucker overalls train conductor hat with either pair for the Playskool vintage vibe. My drip is on a level.
Great review fam! I love the channel and videos thanks for posting almost everyday and keeping us updated with sneaker releases. Your hard work doesn’t go unnoticed or unappreciated fam. Thank you so so much to you mr.former Simpson and buckets. 🙏
Easily my favorite UA-cam videos are the Life Test updates. Appreciate you both! Now we are entering the List Season - and it feels like it’s been a minute since we got a list from you guys. Can’t wait!
My favorite part of these life test videos is the walk along the elevated hedges lol... Keep these coming! Love hearing about and seeing how a shoe wears in.
I really really really really wish ALL your videos were like this!! Don’t get me wrong I love your videos and your chemistry with your brother. It’s admirable. I really hope we get to have a conversation one day in person. You guys are awesome
I will say that when i first wear em it was very tight with the mesh, almost thought i got em on the wrong size. but once you walk around em the first week, it breaks out and fits your feet just right.
Thing I appreciate about you most is that you’re love from sneakers is more than hype and keeping them crispy. On another note, I wish I could get my hands on the guava ice 4s!
This is gonna be a pair that will skyrocket just as the jordan 1s did. As we move onto another chapter of fashion I think retros will make a huge comeback. They're gorrrrrgeous.
First W on SNKRS with these, they’re in my regular rotation. I also hit on Union with the guava ice. I can’t decide if I want to keep them or not. Flip ‘em or flaunt ‘em??
Man I wish I had been collecting sneakers when these come out I’m honestly about to drop a grand on these in my size I hate to but they are my top 5 jordan 4 of all time in my non professional opinion kaws are on the list bred are on the list white cement and the amm 4s are my top 5 of ones that are in reach of being able to own
I love those. Too bad I didnt know about them until recently. I would paint the upper missole blue with color matched red speckles. Another thing I would change is the wing tab. I wonder the signifigance of closing up the window.
J4 union La are my favourite sneakers right now i got the guava ice for 3000k that is Kenyan shillings, around 25 dollars . They are second hand and they are pretty roughed up but I love them just the way they are . I would to know how i can wash the straps located besides the sneakers because they are yellowed other than that they comfortable and i would give them a 10/10
Visually I give it a 10. Still haven’t worn mine but one negative outtake is they’re heavy asf. When I received my pair the shoebox felt like bricks. Guava visually I give it a 8.
I’m glad you did this video, I haven’t worn mine yet because I’m like you.. I think they will climb back up in value.. but it’s good to know they still look great after two months of wear..
Value doesn’t matter when u buy a pair to wear. Enjoy them unless u want to sell then hold but if u keeping them who cares by the time u wear them for 2 years used pairs might be worth 500-800
I LOVE this sneaker and since I’ve gotten them I’ve worn the black pair a bunch of times. Soon as I got them in the mail they went straight to the toe and I can confirm everything foamie and buckets said. I have the guava pair as well and still have them on ice the off noir is just more practical/wearable but I do like the guavas more. Dope video as always guys keep it up!
Love the life test videos! Seems like something unique about this channel. Any life test review on dunks? Just got my first pair and wanna see how they go before I undeadstock em 😁

People who fake like em unfolded the tongue LOL
Soty for sure. Super happy with my pair and the folded tongue.
I feel the same way but only for the Guava color way. I have both and the Noir looks better with an unfolded tongue. Guess that makes two of us lol.
I think the tongue is horrible. The rest of the shoe is so unique, there was no reason to take it further. The yellow stitching couldve been used around the jordan patch on a r3gular tongue or for where the wing is stitched on. Wouldve made the yellow stitching more visable and wouldve made it flames imo.
I agree
Keep these coming... life test is definitely best review or way to rate a shoe in my opinion.
Regardless of the shoe I always tune into these, watched buckets croc’s review just recently too lol
Yo eddie

Been waiting for a life test..this is my fave vid to watch..
Do one for the Mocha 1’s or Midnight Navy pls!
I like this. Proper test of integrity and look. Value is an obvious one. But I buy my shoes for keeps. I just bought some of these for 675 DS 😬 love em though. Definitely stiff out the box.
They break in over time lol, I bought a ds pair last year and they feel better now
These were my first hit on SNKRS in 3 years, mind you I was going for a pair of shoes every 2 weeks, I’m glad these were my first W.
Nice, I paid 800 for em. Lol
@@VolcardoReviewer where’d you buy em from
Just remember, union 1 black toes went for $500 at the lowest. These will eventually climb up... not to the 1s level but they’ll climb.
1’s and 4’s seem to do the best
If you're not gonna sell em, why not wear em?
@@chrissullivan6572 I wear all my sneakers. I only commented because he spoke about the aftermarket price dipping.
And I passed on them when they were $500 smh
@@natefiggs I've seen cats with stuff on ice from 2014. They not selling or wearing. I rock all mine too, no matter the price.

🔥🔥First💪🏾love how everyone’s energy changed when these came out! Went from worst Jordan 4 of the year to one of the best once the tongues “unfurled”😂😂
I remember they used to call them the "Fisher-Price" Jordans
@@marcop.525 still are imo call me a hater but I still firmly believe they're 🗑

Tbh I still think the black pair looks trash but I really like the way the guava pair looks I just hate the black with the sail
@@frogcommunion6556 I like both. I prefer Guava too. But both moved the needle for me.
I’m definitely keeping my pair. They’re on ice right now
Bro you gotta wear em!
I keep mine in ice man stupid,i bought em i wear em.If something happens to me some one else is gonna wear em or sell em 🤣.Buy it use it .
@@junito3112 Who said I wasn’t going to wear them? I wear my kicks when the hype dies. Do u
@@smittyboy The minute i buy em,i wear em so F it is the hype die or not.
@@junito3112 Good for you 👍🏽
Just started wearing mine last week! Greatest materials I’ve seen on a Jordan 4....idk about unstitching the tongues tho lol
Thanks man. Mine were on ice but just broke em out this weekend...these are one of my favorite of the year
use safety pins to fold the tongues down and blue laces that match the sock liner
I kept black laces in mine and I got cream/light yellow to match the sole that look dope if I wear a lighter color outfit..... love both of them
Great review fam! I love the channel and videos thanks for posting almost everyday and keeping us updated with sneaker releases. Your hard work doesn’t go unnoticed or unappreciated fam. Thank you so so much to you mr.former Simpson and buckets. 🙏

Now we are entering the List Season - and it feels like it’s been a minute since we got a list from you guys. Can’t wait!
If I’m 9.5 on the air forces should I go 0.5 up to buy these?
like how it went from everyone hating the shoe to everyone loving it 😂
Its Like that with every hyped release
Nah, still a ugly ass shoe to me, I’d rather have the fire red 4s
There will always be people that genuinely do not feel certain releases, but most of the "sneakerheads" don't really think for themselves.
I still don’t like it bc the concept pics they released looked dope and when they released the shoe...
Watermelon u talking about photoshops people made. Those weren’t official obviously just people taking shots in the dark
I’m so stoked to get these in! Just ordered a pair 🤩
Yoooo trying to get a pair in rn, real close to closing a deal!
I just bought a pair 2 weeks ago and broke them in… thanks to you guys im excited about how comfy they’ve gotten. Kinda like a birkenstock
Top ten sneakers worn in?
That beat is rough, rugged and raw! Literally.
Stop playing Al, you don't have any bars for it. (Jokes)
My favorite part of these life test videos is the walk along the elevated hedges lol... Keep these coming! Love hearing about and seeing how a shoe wears in.
Love when people wear they shoes
Me too!
Me too,but keep em clean at least
Fire sneaker, I’d really like to see a life test on the high 85’s.
Heyy is the Nike x Sacai Vaporwaffle review coming soon?
Yo I’m waiting for it too!
I really really really really wish ALL your videos were like this!! Don’t get me wrong I love your videos and your chemistry with your brother. It’s admirable. I really hope we get to have a conversation one day in person. You guys are awesome

Mine are still fresh in the box- waiting for lock-down to end before I crack them open but excited for it 😃
Thing I appreciate about you most is that you’re love from sneakers is more than hype and keeping them crispy. On another note, I wish I could get my hands on the guava ice 4s!
I remember everybody hated these when pics first came out, now resale is 900 and I cant buy a pair =(
Resellers amirite
I won my pair from the Snkrs draw. I loved them since I first saw them & kept the same energy. Wore them & I love them! 🔥
This is gonna be a pair that will skyrocket just as the jordan 1s did. As we move onto another chapter of fashion I think retros will make a huge comeback. They're gorrrrrgeous.
Crazy that yours fit big. Mine were more snug than my other 4s. Awesome video as always gentlemen.
good that you mentioned that you undid the stitching, i will do the same
First W on SNKRS with these, they’re in my regular rotation. I also hit on Union with the guava ice. I can’t decide if I want to keep them or not. Flip ‘em or flaunt ‘em??
Wow lucky
Super lucky. One of my favourite sneakers of all time honestly. They just hit everything personally.
Love the life test. It’s a must, make you guys unique- one day when buckets gives 10/10 the internet will be broken 😂
Love these type of videos... sneakers in action.. ROCK YOUR KICKS🤘🏼
I am glad you did the life test on the union 4’s because I was thinking about picking these up for Christmas
What about Grateful Dead dunks how they holding up I’m still waits for the Blue and Pink Grateful Dead SB dunks
Me too.
I agree at 100 percent seeing how sneakers become after months is much better than seeing them new!
Man I wish I had been collecting sneakers when these come out I’m honestly about to drop a grand on these in my size I hate to but they are my top 5 jordan 4 of all time in my non professional opinion kaws are on the list bred are on the list white cement and the amm 4s are my top 5 of ones that are in reach of being able to own
Kind of off topic from shoes but what is your opinion on UA-cam new TOS monetizing non partnered videos?
Foamer and Buckets videos are so viby. with the sick beats in the background and the sick shoes it’s just 😙👌
I love those. Too bad I didnt know about them until recently. I would paint the upper missole blue with color matched red speckles. Another thing I would change is the wing tab. I wonder the signifigance of closing up the window.
Resell price dropping is a positive, not a negative IMO! The more accessible, the better.
that intro music is iconic!
Beat the new sacais that just came out!!!!!!!!! The back lip of the sneaker worries me
Just picked up the J4 Sails, very close to picking these or the J5 Muslins up I just can't decide which.
J4 union La are my favourite sneakers right now i got the guava ice for 3000k that is Kenyan shillings, around 25 dollars .

Mr foamer simpson should i cop these or the nike dunk low off white university red ???
Not many in depth reviews like this. Had to sub.
Mr Win, i love your channel and love even more the fact that u show some love to mr foamer Simpson.
Glad the life test are back love these videos. Keep em coming guys
I have these. Haven’t taken them out of the box. Not sure if I wanna keep them
Need that off Noir gonna pull the trigger soon before prices climb!!🔥🔥
Visually I give it a 10. Still haven’t worn mine but one negative outtake is they’re heavy asf. When I received my pair the shoebox felt like bricks. Guava visually I give it a 8.
Are they tighter than tts?

@@sneakerhead4770 you’re right, if you’re buying them to wear.. I didn’t buy them to wear.. so I’m waiting for them to go back up in value.
CJ I would say at minimum hold til mid/late summer maybe longer, like year to year and a half
@@sneakerhead4770 Yes, that was my plan.. I can wait, I’ve waited longer.. Lol. Thank you!
As always great video my dudes!!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Perfect! one of my fav jordan 4 union collab off noir 👀😍🙌 you give amazing review mr foamer simpson💪🏻
Where is your update for Offwhite 4's?
I had 2 villagio bread marble grilled cheese sandwiches, sprinkled with chilli flakes 👌
Thanks for this video. I'm not sure if I should wear mine
Dope Vid🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 These are in my Top 10 for 2020 for sure!!!
This is my go to man/channel for reviews
Looking at em right now! Just got em! Can’t wait too get off work too get an on feet look
Let’s see the Jordan 5 Jade Horizon’s life tested. I’m curious to how they will hold up
Was into this pair from jump so I copped...I love em.
I LOVE this sneaker and since I’ve gotten them I’ve worn the black pair a bunch of times. Soon as I got them in the mail they went straight to the toe and I can confirm everything foamie and buckets said. I have the guava pair as well and still have them on ice the off noir is just more practical/wearable but I do like the guavas more. Dope video as always guys keep it up!
does this pair of shoes a bit smaller / tighter?
The sneaker game is south africa is so difficult and all collab drops or exclusive drops never happen here in South Africa
The beat is so hard lol 🔥 🎶
Anyone have a link to the music?
Great vid broskiz these are definitely a favorite collaboration 9.9
This pair has grown on me as well. This is my favorite Jordan release of the year.
They pop with the orange laces. Damn I think I prefer these now > Guava ices
Those toe stars look pretty intact for 2 months of wear, no creases either.....I call bs on 2 months wear foam.
Facts you know damn well they not wearing these for 2 months straight
The toe is mesh lol
Agree. No paint creasing in the mid sole or heal drag and he’s a heavy guy, just saying. Among other things too.
keep calm people he meant to say," here how they look after owning for 2 months. lol
Love love love life test videos, thank you and keep them coming 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yeah these are fire. Wasn't blown away at first but they've grown on me
These over the sail off white 5s ?
Hit the chunky dunks on release day and been holding, waiting til they hit 1500 again to sell then scooping these up hopefully for around 600 🤞🏽
Still got mine on d.s. I'm rock them down in Miami and December.
Love your work man!
Bro did yours have a chemical smell when you got them? Do you recall?
Just watched a video from 8 years ago bro.. funny ass hell. You still have the Para Norman
Like these more than guava pair 🔥
Love the life test videos! Seems like something unique about this channel. Any life test review on dunks? Just got my first pair and wanna see how they go before I undeadstock em 😁
Can you do the jordan 12 indigo
Does the black part get a nice fade after wearing it long?
I’ve got these and rock them the exact same way 🔥🔥
no paint cracks on midsole?
I thoroughly enjoy these life tests. It’s awesome!
Can you do a review of the Nike x Sacai VaporWaffle???
Foamie, can you do a life test with the 700 v3 arzareth?
No star loss 🤔
StockX size 10: $895, Goat size 10: $940, resell price is off the roof, and this color is the most expensive out of the 4 colors
New here from miles away on the coast in the UK. Nice one lads... 👍
