That colorway is so clean! As for the question of the day, movie wise, I’m STILL team Killmonger! My personal favorite villain has always been the joker, but Dr Doom is also up there. As for Creature Commandos….that show is GREAT!! YES…the Weasel episode is my favorite, followed by the Nina episode (which happens to be the finale). Weasel isn’t a villain at all….he was deemed a menace and “villain” by the real monsters ho actually shot, killed and blew up those kids that he actively as trying to save, but because he didn’t look normal, he’s a monster….he’s dangerous and therefore in the name of everyone else’s insecurities, he was made a villain…he really was the victim. That also can be said for Nina. Non comic related….it’s also exactly what they did to Elphaba! Oh oh….. i had to edit this with an addition, my non dc/marvel villain is AZULA!
Closest we’d had to the 2004 Midnight Navy are the Varsity Royal lows that came out in 2023, if I remember correctly; that style of color blocking needs more variations! Naturally the Varsity Royal pair was a women’s exclusive, so my size was just out of range. These will be a solid consolation prize if I can find a good sale though! Fantastic video like always!
I had that 2016 release because i found them cheap, right now i have just 2023 UNCs and i like that 2/3 fusion model too. I wish they just make retro of 2004 version. AJ2s are still underrated and it's crazy because they are just comfortable. Perfect shoes for 30+ dude :D
How legit would it be if the NBA hosted a retro shoe night (game). One night where pros wear classic shoes like Kamikaze’s or air flight turbulence zoom.
I’ve always rooted for the hero bc of their mission. But I loved the villains struggle as well. I mean we started to see a trend of villain movies and origin stories like Joker but I definitely rooted for Venom with Tom Hardy. I think we could talk Marvel and DC for hours. Dr. Octopus in Spiderman 2 I felt lots of sympathy for. He’s a villain who had good intentions at first.
1. It makes me happy that Chris is so happy for these shoes 😅 i think they're pretty nice. 2. Heath Ledger's joker scene with Harvey Dent was poignant. He was out to force people to change a broken system. I like the part where the mob guys call him crazy and he stares daggers at them and says: 'I'm not.'...then does his 'magic trick'. ❤
Had the ‘04 retros & loved them, so the callback to those here is SUPER tempting. QotD: I’ve definitely sympathized with villains in Marvel/DC several times, Killmonger is a big one in the MCU but the first one was Magneto. Despite numerous iterations, his character is one I consistently have empathy for & occasionally I’m tempted to root for. He’s my second favorite villain after The Joker (The Killing Joke is the “one bad day” storyline Chris is referring to which is Alan Moore going absolute sicko mode, wild for 1988).
My holy grails are the UNC 3s, and I also love the 2, so this might have to be my first cop of the year.Thanks for introducing me to such a great shoe Chris :)
These are just so beautiful. I said this in the first review of these, but it’s a combination of my two favourite models of all time. It’s such a shame Nike/JB doesn’t think there’s a market for these in the UK, cause I cannot find them at ANY retailer I’ve here.
Man the shape of that toe box is so dang good. Love that the brand has been finally correcting that. Not all the time but damn it looks good on these QOTD: first off, Mrs Wing voting for the villain 😱 if we’re talking MCU, I’d say Killmonger and Namor.
I had the 2016 retro because of the color blocking, it was so clean but the texture on the leather was awful. Despite that I wore them frequently because they were comfortable, until the midsole crumbled and been on the box since that, waiting to be restored along a bunch of my shoes that also need reglue or something 😅. Maybe not from a DC or Marvel comic, but Game of Thrones was a series with many villains who you can root for going against another villain, it was sick 😂
I desperately wish this model was available in Australia because I have not seen a single colourway of this anywhere. Regarding villains though, there aren't any in Marvel or DC that I've actually rooted for, but I do enjoy Owl Man a lot. He's a perfect foil for Batman, and without him, we wouldn't have gotten one of the hardest Batman lines in all of cinema. "There _is_ a difference between us. We both looked into the abyss, but when it looked back at us? You blinked."
I've rooted for the villain before. I know it's not Marvel/DC, but technically Anakin/Darth Vader you are kind of rooting for him. Yes he does heroic things but there's moments of dark side stuff until he finally falls and becomes Vader and then redeems himself before dying. I'm rooting for the villain in this case to redeem themself knowing their past self. But I fr enjoyed Vader obliterating those rebels in rogue one at the end
QOTD: I don't think so, but my superhero movie experience is Batman, Spider-Man, and Black Panther, so I might not be the person to ask. It's a good colorway of what is, I agree, the best combination/remix Jordan model yet. It's not for me, however. I feel general Carolina fatigue with Jordans and sometimes I wish they'd limit the use of this color to OG colorways, but that's not going to happen. Thanks for the review! I give you two, or three, thumbs up for the algorithm. See you next time right here.
Magento is still one my favorite to "root" for, so to speak. You don't always agree with his methods but you empathize with him looking out for mutants. QOTD: how do you feel about shoe brands blatantly mimicking a different company's model? I saw a Skechers shoe that looked like something On would've made. It threw me off for a second. 😂
For some odd reason I always root for carnage, because the more chaos and crazy murders he causes, it always makes spiderman or venom have to go all out to stop him. So eventually he ends up creating epic final battles
I will never get tired of you not knowing what/how to call these lol “the 2 by 3” “the 2 to 3” “2 slash 3” keep them coming 😂 QOTD: I didn’t root for this villain, but I kinda wish the character stuck around longer, ultron, loved the voice actor and his character was just so interesting lol
Always gonna 👍🏻 Jordan 2 content. If I didn’t have the UNC PE lows I’d probably spring for these. I almost always root for Magneto, and he and Dr. Doom are my favorites. Someone like Magneto is different than people who are full on despicable, irredeemable individuals such as Norman Osborn or Sabretooth. Or Vulcan. Vulcan is a huge jerk
The 2/3 is a very underrated shoe and the price is right. The comfort is on 10!
Chris your reviews are the best on youtube
Thanks! 🙏
💯
I enjoyed the mini podcast at the end of the review.
I haven't even started the video and just by the thumbnail I see it's a 2/3. I absolutely ADORE this shoe and it's not even available here in Italy 😭
I remember the 2s when they came out in the early 2000s. I remember seeing the black 2s. So clean in person!
Magneto in Days of Future Past had me rooting for him. The way both Michael Fassbender and Ian McKellen played him made him likeable.
That colorway is so clean! As for the question of the day, movie wise, I’m STILL team Killmonger! My personal favorite villain has always been the joker, but Dr Doom is also up there.

Carnage is just so unhinged i love seeing him in comics and animation, but in the movies, Killmonger… Killmonger was right.
Off the batt, the 2/3 is such a siiick model, have you seen the all white with gum bottoms, phenomenal 👊🏿
Yea they womens 🔥
this hybrids are on 🔥 🔥 copping the black mettalic

It's a dope shoe and color. I have 3 pairs of the 2/3... Really nice!
Had the 04 pair, definitely need them again
How legit would it be if the NBA hosted a retro shoe night (game). One night where pros wear classic shoes like Kamikaze’s or air flight turbulence zoom.
Very underrated shoe, and mad comfortable.
Great Review
2’s are super slept on ngl
Now these I need to get! Had those 2 lows back in the day, loved em.
I really love the model all the colorways are fire
I am dying for a black/cement grey color way on this model. There is a “black/ metallic” so Im hopeful they will release one soon 🤞
I actually like the 2/3rds! I really want the plain black and white one
Great video, you guys are the best.
Thanks so much!
Love the Jordan mashup shoes completely!
I still remember like yesterday getting a pair of 2 lows from the deep discount rack at Scheels in 1995. They were my favorite, so comfy.
Happy new year!
Never forget when Daredevil did that episode of Downton Abbey and broke Thomas' heart.
Man these are clean. The 2 low with that iconic 3 air unit is just bliss.
I’ve always rooted for the hero bc of their mission. But I loved the villains struggle as well. I mean we started to see a trend of villain movies and origin stories like Joker but I definitely rooted for Venom with Tom Hardy. I think we could talk Marvel and DC for hours. Dr. Octopus in Spiderman 2 I felt lots of sympathy for. He’s a villain who had good intentions at first.
I had those 2's highschool. I miss them and hope they do a re-release.
I really like the 2/3, and this is my favorite colorway so far
1. It makes me happy that Chris is so happy for these shoes 😅 i think they're pretty nice.
2. Heath Ledger's joker scene with Harvey Dent was poignant. He was out to force people to change a broken system. I like the part where the mob guys call him crazy and he stares daggers at them and says: 'I'm not.'...then does his 'magic trick'. ❤
I had those low top UNC/Navy 2’s and I loved them
Had the ‘04 retros & loved them, so the callback to those here is SUPER tempting.

jodi is hilarious 🤣❤️
Almost every single day 👍🏼
compelling is the perfect word to describe it.
One of my favourite colourways of the 2/3
1: who roots against the blind superhero?!?!?
2: a well written villain can draw you into the story as much as the hero does.
3: Stilt-Man
Jodi a real one for this, sometimes villains are the coolest
14:06 I actually copped them on sale. I love the UNC Jordan 2/3 colorways in general.
Cool....these and the Spizike Low UNC are on my radar.
honestly im always tempted to get a pair of 2/3 cuz its just a nice looking casual sneakers
Man the shape of that toe box is so dang good. Love that the brand has been finally correcting that. Not all the time but damn it looks good on these
QOTD: first off, Mrs Wing voting for the villain 😱 if we’re talking MCU, I’d say Killmonger and Namor.
The new penguin and kingpin. Great villians to cheer for.
Chris every time you said "detailed look on this BAD BOYS" i ended up buying them,, well at least most of them 😄
Those are great but I don't think I will get them, I recently got the Jordan 2 Retro Low 'UNC', but super video 😊😊like always
Same 👍🏽
Those are 🔥 I have them as well
I love the underrated 2s. Cheaper for me 😂
Just here for the content.

They did release lows in the 94-95 run if im not mistaken. Great content as always bruv!
That is correct. Chris was mistaken.
I desperately wish this model was available in Australia because I have not seen a single colourway of this anywhere.

"There _is_ a difference between us. We both looked into the abyss, but when it looked back at us? You blinked."
Nice looking pair (althought i could see these a fragment collab if i didnt know better).
Killmonger from Black Panther was a really relatable villain
THEY SHOULD'VE MADE THE BOTTOM WHITE TOO
For the million subs!
Always hated 2s, but these ain’t bad 😮
🃏 joker and Loki!! They are the best and smartest bad guys!
Killmonger in Black panther was a little too relatable too … but yes Joker is the top tier villain, is the Grinch considered one too?
I've rooted for the villain before.
I know it's not Marvel/DC, but technically Anakin/Darth Vader you are kind of rooting for him. Yes he does heroic things but there's moments of dark side stuff until he finally falls and becomes Vader and then redeems himself before dying.
I'm rooting for the villain in this case to redeem themself knowing their past self. But I fr enjoyed Vader obliterating those rebels in rogue one at the end
Love these shoes! Excited for them to hit the outlets 😂
I’ve been saying those Jordan 2 Black Chromes need to reallyyy make a comeback
Great vid. I was rooting for the penguin until the last episode.
I love villains👌 thanos, joker, green goblin juggernaut, mystique, dr octopus😂
I'd never wear a hybrid Jordan but for people that would those are pretty nice.
I've definitely rooted for Dr DOOM to win 😂
DOOM IS MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE
I want those original white n navy blue lows like now!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nike really be playing us man
QOTD: I don't think so, but my superhero movie experience is Batman, Spider-Man, and Black Panther, so I might not be the person to ask.

The Penguin is really good
Very cool but I enjoy the original sole . These soles have been alot of nike sneakers now . Be great to see something new ✨️
Magneto always pulls me in
Great sneakers

QOTD: how do you feel about shoe brands blatantly mimicking a different company's model? I saw a Skechers shoe that looked like something On would've made. It threw me off for a second. 😂
Yeah, these are fire, and I'm glad they're finally un-bricking those midsoles 🙌
For some odd reason I always root for carnage, because the more chaos and crazy murders he causes, it always makes spiderman or venom have to go all out to stop him. So eventually he ends up creating epic final battles
Can you do a review on the jordan 4 orchid please
I will never get tired of you not knowing what/how to call these lol “the 2 by 3” “the 2 to 3” “2 slash 3” keep them coming 😂
QOTD: I didn’t root for this villain, but I kinda wish the character stuck around longer, ultron, loved the voice actor and his character was just so interesting lol
Mr Freeze from Batman:The Animated Series is the best!
The violator from the original spawn comics was pretty bad ass .
Doctor Doom for the Fan 4… Battle Beast from Invincible
Mr. Freeze, Riddler, Joker (my favorite), Magneto, Green Goblin
These look like a good summer shoe.
Here for the squish
And of course Heath Ledger’s Joker in The Dark Knight. ❤
Not Marvel, but Eddie Redmayne in the 2024 The day of the Jackal tv-show was absolutely stellar.
I need the all black jordan lows 4s
Definitely understood where Killmonger was coming from.
This model is as cool as the air Jordan legacy 312 lows
Have you seen the White/Black/Metallic Silver? SKU FD0383-148 …They are a really nice colorway as well.
These are nice 👍
Always gonna 👍🏻 Jordan 2 content. If I didn’t have the UNC PE lows I’d probably spring for these.
I almost always root for Magneto, and he and Dr. Doom are my favorites. Someone like Magneto is different than people who are full on despicable, irredeemable individuals such as Norman Osborn or Sabretooth. Or Vulcan. Vulcan is a huge jerk
I'n the opposite..if the Navy went all the way I am out! Lol!!
Will we see the Jordan 6 Infrared / black red come back any time soon?
i like 2/3 but haven't seen them in Mexico
Honestly I wanted Deathstroke to win in Arrow 😂
What if I’m a alternate universe these are actually the show that kept Mike with nike 😮
Magneto and Darkseid
Magneto was right.
(Probably doesn't qualify because mutants are treated like villains by most in that context)
