The true GOATS of any artistic category will show how unafraid they are to be unapologetically creative. In my eyes, this is a win for Virgil in that regard.
These are made for the true art fans, that follow(ed😥) Virgil’s work more closely. He merged all he learned from his Nike collabs. It may even be a tribute or a last goodbye? It looks chaotic, gives the feeling of when people customize their own random Nikes to make them look like Off White collabs. They don’t look right, but they got the spirit. And the black and white colorways? It seems a lot like the beginning and then end. Just like in his last Louis Vuitton show, where instead of a bridal look, they opened with a black, funeral outfit. Virgil loved details and hints, if anything I said is bogus, he at least would love that this is what I see within these sneakers. Rest easy Virg!
I was fortunate enough to walk into my local sneaker boutique and find these in both color ways sitting. Copped the white pair and will be rocking the heck out of them. Probably will be my only Off White shoe I’ll ever own and these will be my favorites out of the collection.
Glad I’m not the only one who thinks these are dope! Personally I love these Mids and with Virgil creativity these go hard. Got lucky in Snkrs and currently are in my top 5 rotation.
i copped the black pair and wore them confidently. some people just scared of what the next person thinks about them lol. im a big fan of Virgil so i can care less if other people dont like them.
I love these, copped both pairs. But I am also a fan of loud sneakers. I see them as a transformation of the normal black/white AF1 mid crossing into the metaverse.
Yall are entitled to your own opinions, and i didn't like this sneaker at first, but these are fire bruh. I got my black pair in today. They may be on foot before the day is done.
I actually like these once I saw em on feet. I like all kinds of different kicks, and these are def different. The spiky sole is hella dope. My favorite Off White shoes are actually the AM 90s and the Jordan 5s!!
Put in for both on SNKRS thinking maybe I'd hit on one and hit on both. These are underrated in my opinion, they're definitely nicer in hand. I'm not crazy about the spikes but they'll eventually wear down.
I love this sneaker. It’s going to be one of those that in a few years people will appreciate more and wish they’d picked up when they were going for retail.
I would agree except it’s just not useful as a shoe with those wobbly spikes walking uphill all the time I wish things were different I love the look Also I hope I’m wrong. I want stuff like this to work.
I’m getting my white pair here I’m a couple days and I can’t wait for them, my first off white sneaker. Now I need the pine green version that’s coming soon
I like that Nike Swoosh the most on these, the way the text behind it goes hazy. That's a 3D Chess move right there Virgil played. The melted back of the sole, like that must've been crazy to do that at the factory. It's extra and so much work to do I bet. Virgil pushed Nike to go above and beyond on this one. Nike raising the price on all these basic shoes lately and this one was a corvette for the price of a corolla. Honestly Buckets reception to these were a bit better than I had guessed, but yall killed me with the 4 lol. It's from a place of love though so yall at least hit me softly with that haha
I love how the music stops when Buckets speaks! 😆 This is definitely a Met Gala shoe....or a Rave. I see some celebrities rockin' these. I like certain aspects of the shoe, but overall, I wouldn't cop these.
I’m really really thinking about getting the black pair… I’m a Virgil fan I don’t like everything but these I do like feel like if I take off the tag and pull out the extra laces i could simplify them a lil and wear a lot🔥 great video
I really enjoy this sneaker and the mystique it has. Virgil passed away before we were able to hear about this sneaker so we may never know the inspiration behind it. It’s definitely one of the most out there off-whites and I have to respect the man for it. It’s easily on my top 5 silhouettes that Virgil has designed
My all time fav off white sneaker i love them my fav shoe in 2022 i love everything about them specially the spikes im glad nobody like them i was able to secure 2 pair n each color
I would most likely buy the Off-White Nike Air Force 1 Mid Grim Reaper off StockX. They’re priced very well. Plus, the green laces and the black/white aesthetic is dope. 🤙🏼
Some of the details are indicative of the original designs and purpose of the Air Force 1. The spikes were added because before they became a basketball/lifestyle sneaker they were intended to be hiking sneakers.
I've been wearing my black pair for about a week straight and just about all of the spikes are gone. since the spikes are gone it feels like a completely different sneaker on feet.
This sneaker is 8 for me but the reason is the history behind the shoe the reason it was made the way it was made and too know these were Virgil’s last shoe to work on it’s poetic
These are for the die hard Virgil fans. This really might be his last Nike collab design so it’s more special than most even know. I love these to death. May Virgil Rest In Peace.
I don’t know if this is true, but it almost seems as it’s a mash up from all the other sneakers from Nike off-whites. Some materials and some features are clearly taken from older releases. I copped black and will probably not wear them, but love them as an “sculpture” for an ode to the Virgil era.
These shoes are not for ordinary people. And people with no fashion sense will absolutely dislike it. It is made to stand out and get out from normal style shoes. Like the 700 wave runners before. The people don’t like it then what now, everybody loves it. Keep in mind it is made by a fashion designer who breaks boundaries in traditional fashion and not to mention makes an art in everything he designed.
I got 2 pair of the blacks and 1 pair of whites. They're an acquired taste. Very interesting looking shoes. The spikes remind me of king Koopa or something. Holding on to these. Crazy because mid airforce 1s are trash but these aren't. I bet Virgil had Mario 3 on his mind when he designed these, the bricks for the box and the colors used makes me think of Mario 3,2, and 1 nes
These are different. I kinda like em, but I hate the spikes. My Top 5 OW x Nike/Jordan are: 1. AJ5 Muslin 2. AM90 Desert Ore 3. AJ1 UNC 4. Chuck 70 (the white pair, not the plastic one) 5. Blazer Mid All Hallows‘ Eve
I got the black pair.. love em .. yea they different.. I always liked different.. the 90s nostalgia of the af1 mid is my era of sneakers.. pics these sneakers are wierd.. in hand they nice .. on feet they are dope
I like the black ones and will wear them on stage for sure. I think the green ones with white details will have less colors for people who don’t like all the colors.
I really like him I have both pairs. They are still DS I have not decided whether I should keep both pair and have not decided how or what I will rock them with ; I also got 2 GS pair for retail also during the drop 1st I got myself the 2 pair then I realized realize these will be really great for 1st day of school shoes for my girls I asked them what they thought about it they both like them When they shipped to my home we unboxed them The girls really like the shoes and they're both happy with their sneakers
i would say the Nike Vapor Street Off-White Black Laser Fuchsia is the worst not hthis particular colorway but just the whole like 'pack that came with the Nike Zoom Terra Kiger 5 and the Nike Waffle Racer Off-White
Coming from someone who will get a pair in the future these will not be a shoe years down the line that ppl will catch on and want. Some have to be convinced after in hand a shoe is better but many think this shoe is down right ugly. The runners u can get away with the spike look but unless u cut that inner piece off it’s a huge eye sore. If I’m wrong I’ll eat my words but I highly doubt these will be sought after. The TS air trainer have a better future than these. These are a 2-10 for me but so ugly I want them bcuz ppl don’t like em
These are art collector sneakers. Art is subjective. These were designed to be displayed. 40th anniversary AF1 designed by Vigil (One of his last designs) As a designer and collector I see the investment value. Daily drivers prob not but who wears OW as a daily driver anyway?
An “almost” great release, those spikes throw me off bad. Their color makes it way too much about them too so 4/10 overall. Without them tho, easy a 9+.
The true GOATS of any artistic category will show how unafraid they are to be unapologetically creative. In my eyes, this is a win for Virgil in that regard.

Grim reapers are fire

Change the white shoe laces with pink like I did. Or pink and green. You won’t be disappointed
Copped both colorways, absolutely love them. So unique. People will want these in 3 years when every sneaker is translucent with spikes.
I copped both too. White pair for the summer. Black for the fall
"Futurist lense"....this guy gets it.
Same here, agreed!
Don’t see no translucent sneakers with spikes atm🥱
Glad I’m not the only one who thinks these are dope! Personally I love these Mids and with Virgil creativity these go hard. Got lucky in Snkrs and currently are in my top 5 rotation.
i copped the black pair and wore them confidently. some people just scared of what the next person thinks about them lol. im a big fan of Virgil so i can care less if other people dont like them.
Hit on these. I like them a lot. They are really heavy though. More of a piece of art for me.
Definitely at the top of the list for my favorite off whites! Copping another set in both colorways for display 🏁
Black pair 8.5/10 off the pictures & videos. I don’t have them in hand yet.
I have both colors. Both 🔥💯. Glad they were so easy to get
Squad
These are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👀👀👀👀💯💯💯💯 damn I miss the drop I want these badly
I wouldn't wear em but I do appreciate them as art and dig sort of exploring all the different details. Thanks guys.
I love these, copped both pairs. But I am also a fan of loud sneakers. I see them as a transformation of the normal black/white AF1 mid crossing into the metaverse.
Dope vid Brothers! This was definitely a must pickup for me. 🔥
I just cop’d the Black ones!! 💪🏾💪🏾
I like the first Zoom Flys, the black and white pairs. Those were very dope, don't like the dot pairs tho
Honestly I love the way they look, and I love the way they feel on foot.
Hands down an all around amazing shoe.
How well did they age? Looking to buy the pine green ones
@@Sleepwa2ker spikes are all gone on the bottom of the shoe and all logos inside on the insole are gone, but other than that they look just fine
@@justinlorenz9686 gone as in the broke off or did they just dull?
@@Sleepwa2ker more like they worn down and some rubbed off while walking.
Not really that big of a deal tbh
I have both pairs and see them more as art pieces to display more then wearability in my opinion.
I was pleasantly surprised by these, had every intention of returning them before they even arrived. They run big for anyone looking to cop
Yall are entitled to your own opinions, and i didn't like this sneaker at first, but these are fire bruh. I got my black pair in today. They may be on foot before the day is done.
Wow this guy liked a shoe so much he might wear it
@@shrimpdude I know right!? What a time to be alive!
I actually like these once I saw em on feet. I like all kinds of different kicks, and these are def different. The spiky sole is hella dope. My favorite Off White shoes are actually the AM 90s and the Jordan 5s!!
This is one of my favorite OFF-WHITE shoes. I really thought the resale was going to be crazy….because I couldn’t hit on SNKRS.
Put in for both on SNKRS thinking maybe I'd hit on one and hit on both. These are underrated in my opinion, they're definitely nicer in hand. I'm not crazy about the spikes but they'll eventually wear down.
hypebitch
Just cut them off, way better walking experience
Got both colors however I don't like the white that much the black pair is 🔥🔥🔥 waiting until Fall to wear
I love my black pair. I feel like people just dont understand how to style these.
Agree 💯
Definitely!! 💯
I love this sneaker. It’s going to be one of those that in a few years people will appreciate more and wish they’d picked up when they were going for retail.
Not a chance shits will be 50 under retail
I would agree except it’s just not useful as a shoe with those wobbly spikes walking uphill all the time
I wish things were different I love the look
Also I hope I’m wrong. I want stuff like this to work.
@@orbitaljellyfish808 Avant-garde is almost never practical and almost always controversial.
colorful spikes just aint it.
@@nassiglutt6587 From the “on foot” videos I’ve seen of these it looks like the spikes bend and smoosh/not rigid when stepped on
I love this one it’s just because the right price for people really really love!not for resellers ! I have both white and black
I actually DIG em!!!! 7/10!!!!! Can't explain WHY though....
I’m getting my white pair here I’m a couple days and I can’t wait for them, my first off white sneaker. Now I need the pine green version that’s coming soon

Lmao I noticed bucket’s immediate non-negative reaction too and it 10/10 caught me off guard
I like both of these and personally own the white
The black colorway on these was a lot better imo. I wanna know what ur thoughts would have been if those were the ones u got.
I love how the music stops when Buckets speaks! 😆
This is definitely a Met Gala shoe....or a Rave. I see some celebrities rockin' these. I like certain aspects of the shoe, but overall, I wouldn't cop these.
The black pair is sick!
I love these

Omar comin t shirt is dope asf. I copped mine a few weeks ago and the shirts' quality and fit is too perfect!!
I really like the black pair

Love both color ways but only got the black ones🔥🔥🔥
I would most likely buy the Off-White Nike Air Force 1 Mid Grim Reaper off StockX. They’re priced very well. Plus, the green laces and the black/white aesthetic is dope. 🤙🏼
Copped my size but don’t know if i should rock'em or keep'em like a peace of sneaker's art ?
Air terra kiger were one of my faves so these are good in my eyes
Some of the details are indicative of the original designs and purpose of the Air Force 1. The spikes were added because before they became a basketball/lifestyle sneaker they were intended to be hiking sneakers.
That's facts? I didn't know that.
The hiking bit is interesting. Virgil was one of the best there was in incorporating culture through use of design elements to tell a story
I've been wearing my black pair for about a week straight and just about all of the spikes are gone. since the spikes are gone it feels like a completely different sneaker on feet.
Dang … they just fall off ?
How do they feel and look now? Bad?
Yo foam I have the blk pair , feel the same way kool details but just can’t seem to wear them out. Pretty far out style
I am liking these a lot lately re the black ones. I get a crazy amount of compliments on them and they are comfortable. 2 cents
This sneaker is 8 for me but the reason is the history behind the shoe the reason it was made the way it was made and too know these were Virgil’s last shoe to work on it’s poetic
I would like a pair of those
These are for the die hard Virgil fans. This really might be his last Nike collab design so it’s more special than most even know. I love these to death. May Virgil Rest In Peace.

I got both pairs and couldn't be happier. I actually hate all the other off-white collabs, but that's just me.😂
I got the black and rocking em on my bday
I’m gonna cope them, to go with the black,& pine ones I own…
these are better than the blazer low's

Better than all the dunks
It’s the spikes. There’s just no need for the spikes. Colour fine, detail fine, spikes awful
These are different. I kinda like em, but I hate the spikes.
My Top 5 OW x Nike/Jordan are:
1. AJ5 Muslin
2. AM90 Desert Ore
3. AJ1 UNC
4. Chuck 70 (the white pair, not the plastic one)
5. Blazer Mid All Hallows‘ Eve
Imo the black ones are fye 🔥 white is dope too but the swooshes are almost nonexistent visually
Just copped both, off white and black,,, I think they are dope......
I got the black pair.. love em .. yea they different.. I always liked different.. the 90s nostalgia of the af1 mid is my era of sneakers.. pics these sneakers are wierd.. in hand they nice .. on feet they are dope
I like the black ones and will wear them on stage for sure. I think the green ones with white details will have less colors for people who don’t like all the colors.
That come out in the fall or winter
Buckets 🪣 is hilarious 😂 🤣😂
Just here to increase my use of synonyms and laugh at a few Bucket one liners. Would've been a great sneaker if it weren't for the funky outsole. IJS.
I bet if it had “AIR” on the side sole and “shoe laces” and the laces y’all would go crazy
Dead ass!
I really like him I have both pairs. They are still DS I have not decided whether I should keep both pair and have not decided how or what I will rock them with ; I also got 2 GS pair for retail also during the drop 1st I got myself the 2 pair then I realized realize these will be really great for 1st day of school shoes for my girls I asked them what they thought about it they both like them When they shipped to my home we unboxed them The girls really like the shoes and they're both happy with their sneakers
It’s sure got a cyberpunk vibe, hair dye, piercings and shades only folks
How they run?
Those spikes ruined it for me.
Do the visionarie, I think it was a very slept on aj1… and can’t beat volt…
Those are my baby lol
i would say the Nike Vapor Street
Off-White Black Laser Fuchsia is the worst not hthis particular colorway but just the whole like 'pack that came with the Nike Zoom Terra Kiger 5 and the Nike Waffle Racer
Off-White
Definitely not a 4, much better on foot, I got them for retail and I promise I would never wear a mid but somehow on foot changed my mind
Honestly I'm the opposite way, I think the lows look oddly proportioned. The mids seem to balance out what the lows lack.
I actually like em
This is fire
Coming from someone who will get a pair in the future these will not be a shoe years down the line that ppl will catch on and want.

Watch the resell on these go up 500% in the next 5 years. I’m calling it
Rip Mad Doctor & Lil Deb. Rip Roy Boy 🐯
I like the black pair, the white not so much
same the black pair goes really hard
I’m getting a pair.I never had off white before
Those are fire !!! I got the yellow ones
Lose the spikes and I'm sure these would be going for more right now. All white/black AF1 Mids with a pop of color? Fire
HELL TO THE NO
Most people can't pull them off 😴
I cant say. Unfortunately I dont own a pair yet. When I do, Ill come back to this vlog and do a comparison!
Buckets the goat 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love this music. Can someone please tell me the artist and the genre of music?
These are art collector sneakers. Art is subjective. These were designed to be displayed. 40th anniversary AF1 designed by Vigil (One of his last designs) As a designer and collector I see the investment value. Daily drivers prob not but who wears OW as a daily driver anyway?
The shoe box is perfect for these as they are, respectively, "bricks" imo lol. Cool review tho 👍🏼
There's bricks on the box for a reason lol
What are thooooose🤨. Uggo to the max🤣. Great content nonetheless compagno’s👍🏽. Keep it up. Peace ✌🏽
I like them a lot better than the off white blazer lows those things are trash
I absolutely love this sneaker just wish it did not have the spikes on the bottom
These are my least favorite off white as well. My favorite are the original Blazer (the 10).
Will someone please get bucket a LIST !
An “almost” great release, those spikes throw me off bad. Their color makes it way too much about them too so 4/10 overall. Without them tho, easy a 9+.
I love how this shoe pisses off resellers when they can make the quick bucks
