    I miss these kinds of Nike shoes. Early 2010s had some of the best basketball shoes performance and aesthetic wise

  • @TheRedArrowHD
    @TheRedArrowHD Рік тому +92

    I strongly agree with your comment in the beginning about skipping models for retros. I was so upset when I heard they’re skipping the Kobe 7 because they could’ve benefited the most from a protro since they had the best looks imo but didn’t perform well

    • @jimjellychristoff350
      @jimjellychristoff350 Рік тому

      On the flip side, may be those shoes that didn't perform well should benefit the most in protros "IF" manufacturer would have the guts to upgrade its performance

    • @aamirrazak3467
      @aamirrazak3467 6 місяців тому

      True I definitely agree that the Kobe 7 deserved a protro and was disappointed that it was skipped. They are great looking shoes aesthetically

    Hey Chris just wanted to say how much ive enjoyed watching your vids since the original kd 3 performance review. All my sneaker knowledge I owe to you and I always look forward to the next vid you guys release. So thank you for everything you’ve done from the og nightwing2303 days till now 🙏🏼

    Ngl definitely had a moment talking abt the old vids, Got into shoes from being a basketball fan.. started with the eastbay mags… felt like god himself came to town when we finally got a hibbett sports. Chris was one of the first channels I every watched bc he was THE ONLY performance shoes reviewer on yt🙏🏾 especially the being a wade fan and not being able to see his shoes literally anywhere

    Hey Chris, I’ve been watching your videos for probably 2 or so years now, I was super into the normal hype shoes, mainly 1s, dunks, etc because of the hype. I’ve been watching your videos and it’s helped me branch out a lot into different lesser popular/hyped up shoes. Ive sold off a couple of my 1s but I’ve added some new balances and 4s to my collection, and I’m hoping to add the georgetown 6s soon. Love your content, and always excited to see what other shoes you guys cover!

    I remember back in the day I had the 2011 hyperfuse low and they never retro’d that shoe and they prob will never but I remember trying the kd3 at a footlocker and the fit and feel is similar, so I’m super excited for the drop!!

I mean that means for sales and revenue as well, That was my issue with the Kobe protros…..I was hoping to get the 2s and 3s, but they jumped to the 4s.,
