Moves named after players change with each generation. Way back in the 2010s while in my thirties I would play pickup with a coworker and his friends who were all in their twenties. One day one of them scored using the Dream Shake, then somebody yelled out "yeah, hit em with The Rondo!". Give me the signature shoe.
I gave up on getting Kobes. Impossible to get them at MSRP and for sure I will not pay some reseller. Your reviews are Gold!!! Kudos to the whole Weartesters Team!
This is my first time winning on an Undefeated raffle and it so happened to be these 4s. Size 11.5 🔥can’t wait to see them in hand, but must defeat the final boss! Thanks Chris for your on-time reviews as always.
There is something cool about having a move named after you. A perfect example of this is the "flare" scratch, named after DJ Flare. To this day people who learn how to scratch DJ will likely learn how to flare, and that's because of how fundamental of a scratch DJ Flare made. Obviously it won't be as mainstream as a shoe named after you, but having even a small group of people continue to use your move is pretty sweet.
In Olympic weightlifting, the legendary coach Glenn Pendlay has an exercise named after him, The Pendlay Row. And Arnold has the Arnold Press in bodybuilding. However, The 1st basketball player to pop in my head after the question was Skip to my Lou Rafer Alston and his highlight reel , not sure if he has any specific moves. Otherwise, it’s Vince Carter with the elbow in the rim 🥇
Crazy I hit 2 Kobe’s in a row on snkrs, girl dads then these, I found out they fit snug af. So this time going for the gold medals I went for a 13.5 and actually hit !🙏🏾
Signature for sure, although if I had a move named it would have to be completely unrelated like “he just hit him with the Geoff” gives a certain air of mystery.
I’ll actually take the move. Signature shoes are cool, but being able to break out a move and have it associated to you is pretty cool. Kinda like Tony Hawk with the 900, or Dirk with the one legged fadeaway. You may not call it by their names (maybe Dirk), but you know that’s their move.
Definitely with Chris on this one. If way rather have the sig shoe. Nobody's really gonna remember the move attributed to you, but a physical product can last forever.
I got the all star colorway of the kobe 1 protro for $50 at an outlet in 2019. How lucky i was. Funny how nobody cared for the protros untill, you know...
I absolutely would choose my own shoe. And I like these, but not enough to go for them. I love my Gift of Mambas and Girl Dads, so I am good on Kobe 4s for a while. Love your review as always, though!!
I like these Kobe’s, but I’ll never get a W for it. I prefer having my own shoe bc it’ll feel good seeing other people rocking them (unless they came out badly and no one bought them 😂) I don’t play anymore so I couldn’t name a move but I have two for Chris The Chris Diss (some kind of pump fake then shot) The Nightwing Spin (spin dribble)
You gotta go with the move! It’s timeless. Shamgod’s MOVE got him an actual shoe years after he stopped hooping. A shoe is trendy. It’ll most likely be forgotten a few years after its release…
I know it's not a popular Kobe but I really wish Nike would release the Kobe 1 protro again. I'm still kicking myself for not getting them at Nike outlet a week before Kobe passed. My partner was with me and saw that I REALLY wanted them. NGL, kinda wish she tried harder to get me to buy a pair.
So excited I won the reverse 6's, the 8's, an the Olympics coming in Monday big shout out to footlocker and Snkrs app🎉🎉 came in clutch couldn't believe I actually won on snkrs lately
😂😂😂 the Jodizzle. I'm picturing it in my head, and people would definitely be talking about that move for as long as memes are a thing 😂😂😂. I shouldn't be laughing cause I got no game. I'd probably want a shoe because of the process of designing the shoe and the colorways would be kind of fun. If I had a move....maybe the "don't call us, we'll call you?" Just me on the bench or at home on the couch. The Weeping Wilt? That's where my signature move is getting no points, no assists, no rebounds, but somehow still played more than 10 minutes. Yeah....think I'd go with the shoe.
Watching this as I line up currently outside of footlocker! It’s harder to get a pair in Australia with a population of 27million and 6 states. Only 3 states and 1 store each is only releasing to the public. Great video review as always can’t wait to get mine soon
@@kiwimark3875 Hey man! Yes I did! There was only 3 pairs of my size! As Sydney always is there was people arguing back and forward about who came first and the release nearly got cancelled!
@@Gojopeak nice work! QLD must have a higher level of reseller/Kobe fan. The line was cool and Footlocker staff super organised. Looks like they had about 50 pairs in total in QLD across all sizes.
QOTD: A shoe, of course. No royalties are paid from a move. I love Kobe and I'm 101% prepared to take the L on these, as always. Thanks for the review! Here's my comment, there's my like, and the bell is ringin'.
If God Shammgod made it in the NBA people would remember him and not just the move. When someone drops a Dream Shake or Sky Hook we all think of Hakeem or Kareem because both of them are legends.
These kobe 4 gold medals aren't too bad to buy right now in September I got 13s brand new for 240. I just started collecting kobes I have the venice beach 8s also. Trying to get the affordable kobes before there over 500.
Lmfao the 2:44 edit. BTW Jodi has a great point at the end of the clip, signature moves and sneakers can be jacked lol, shout out to Joe Dizzle 4 Shizzle.
I’d want my own shoe that’s like a dream come true and i don’t think I’d have a move named after me but I would have a dope nickname “the kraken” because my knees make a cracking sounds when I take a jumpshot , not as painful as it sounds lol
I can’t go after Kobe’s. I’m always worried that TTS will be uncomfortably snug and going up a half size won’t work lol too bad we can’t try on shoes anymore. I’d rather have a sneaker named after me. I have no moves lol
I give up on trying to get ANY Kobe shoe, deleted all the shoe apps, appreciate the videos though , good luck to everyone trying to get a pair 👍🏽
@@ErnaMcburna likewise
Fr😂 they ain't worth it. Just so many better options these days...modern tech is hard to ignore
K.
Cool
Man same, at this point I just get the reps. Less hassle
This channel deserves a gold medal 🏅
I finally hit on a pair. Never give up! It’s my first pair of Kobe’s I didn’t have to pay an arm and leg for
Me too! Matches my niners colors so gonna wear it to the game at Seattle!
@@robmarley8652 oh they are perfect for the niners! Football season can’t get here fast enough

The Dirk one leg fadeaway has become associated with Luka. I always have to let people know where I got it from.

Bringing back memories of those Shiggar Fraggar Shows and Skratchy the Seal.
1:37 Jodie's interjections have gotten so much funnier! (Lots of plastic)😅 You two are awesome!
Weartesters always the best sneaker content!
another banger chris, this comment question was prolly your best one yet. I would prolly want the move. I would call it the Freshness
You two are the true gold medal 😂 love it ❤
The forever most authentic footwear UA-camr on this platform
Great vid as always …… I actually hit a pair this morning. I couldn’t believe it.
The Jodizzle😂😂 you gotta help her with the move nightwing😅😅😅

One of my favorite shoes ever, my 8th grade basketball shoe in 2009
Managed to COP it yesterday! 🥇🎉🎉
Crazy I hit 2 Kobe’s in a row on snkrs, girl dads then these, I found out they fit snug af. So this time going for the gold medals I went for a 13.5 and actually hit !🙏🏾
I got two hits on this shoe today. I think that there are more pairs of these than the last few released. Good luck everyone
#RoadTo1million subs! Thank you for the reviews wing!
Signature for sure, although if I had a move named it would have to be completely unrelated like “he just hit him with the Geoff” gives a certain air of mystery.
Feeling Golden with the Size 12 !
Lucked out and got a pair (Sz 10) from SNKRS this morning. First pair of Kobe's.

5:29 GOT 'EM! First Kobe dub since he passed. As close to GR as Kobes can be this time around, I guess
Love love love your channel!!!!
Thank you so much!!
Definitely with Chris on this one. If way rather have the sig shoe. Nobody's really gonna remember the move attributed to you, but a physical product can last forever.
Kris Dunn & Bones Hyland of the LA Clippers brought me here they have been rocking these for their last few games 🔥📈
Snagged these today! My first pair of Kobes!!!!!!
You & your wife are the 🐐’s of this kind of content.
In my top 5 of all time
Clean! Been hitting every kobe since November, we shall see tomorrow if I can keep my streak going 😮
Chris’ shirt game is GOATed
So many shoes! Love Kobe’s. Thanks for all the great content.
with the stock market tanking, i can’t spend anymore on sneakers 😢 but then i see your video and i will try for them 😂
been watching since 2014!
I finally hit on the Kobes I was about to cry because I never had a pair till this year.
Own shoe. I am a wear tester for Trek and their latest shoes integrate a lot of my feedback. Going all the way to a full show would be great.
definitely a signature shoe over a move
They look fantastic!!! It’s stupid how they are not easily available.
Because they want you to buy Sabrina’s and other signature shoes
I got the all star colorway of the kobe 1 protro for $50 at an outlet in 2019. How lucky i was.
Funny how nobody cared for the protros untill, you know...
Just walked into shoe palace here and they had these. Had to get a pair since I took an L when they came out.
These were my 1st Kobes and my favorite to hoop in..... so good🥇
I’ve sworn of new sneakers for the rest of the year but I’m hoping my Kobe luck continues
I absolutely would choose my own shoe.
And I like these, but not enough to go for them. I love my Gift of Mambas and Girl Dads, so I am good on Kobe 4s for a while. Love your review as always, though!!
I’ve never felt so good I just hit 1 out of my 2 devices and I got a size 12

A shoe is trendy. It’ll most likely be forgotten a few years after its release…
That’s why we’d rather the Olympic 7s. He actually wore those in 2012
@@ted_shelton only the real ones know
Bingo
7s had the best colorways too
WE GOT EM BOYS! LFGGG
A signature shoe by far !!!
I hope I can cop it when release tomorrow in my country.
Able to got em today...yesss

Nice Review as always 🔥🔥🔥👌👌👌
I still have that Eastbay Kobe olympic poster. One side has him dunking, and the other with the US flag made out of hyperdunks.
Always solid my friend
Loved the video
Found these @ a Nike outlet today!!!😮
We need Kobe's 9 and 11's!!! My favorites are the Beetovens ones
Things are rough as ever but I still love watchin the vids guys.
Another great review, and I love the shoes. Like you just waiting patiently for my W on the sneakers app. 😂😂😂
100% I would want a shoe over a move. Also, it’s ridiculous how much Nike doesn’t want us to buy these shoes.
Kobe 4s and 5s grips so good

The shoes you designed are 🔥
The 1 and 6 protros have been great.
Off ball ankle breaker into a catch and shoot 3 from top of the key while turning around and saluting the crowd/camera.
- The Nightwing (potentially)
The "sky hook" immortalized move
Won them at sole Botique here in San Antonio the 30 min drive to pick em up lol these are super limited but the Kobe 4 MPLS was my first Kobe

Found these sitting at the Nike outlet for retail had to cop 🤙🏿 ripKB824
I cannot believe they release there here out of nowhere and I was able to cop at retail without any headache. I'm so fking happy ngl lol.
where are you anyway?
@@b4rn3rdChile
Made my first SNKRS hit on these! I’m hyped just because I hit lol. Flip or keep ?
Keep
Man I remember when Vanessa herself said that Nike wanted only the Halos to be limited…. 🙂↔️
Imma just buy Sabrina 2, good luck to everyone trying for these.
I remember that kobe wears hyperdunk 2010 with snakes design on it. 😮😮😮
It baffles me that WT still haven't reached a million subs.
These are so great! I hope I can get a pair!
If God Shammgod made it in the NBA people would remember him and not just the move. When someone drops a Dream Shake or Sky Hook we all think of Hakeem or Kareem because both of them are legends.

Hit while watching your video🔥🔥🔥 that’s the secret to winning on SNKRS🤫
Dope review!🔥🔥🔥 And The QOTD: I’d want a shoe!!!
I really wish they'd do more Kobe 1s.
I can’t go after Kobe’s. I’m always worried that TTS will be uncomfortably snug and going up a half size won’t work lol too bad we can’t try on shoes anymore.
I’d rather have a sneaker named after me. I have no moves lol
I have been lucky with hitting every KOBE this year except GIGI so feel they are less limited now
Great shirt!!!!
My own shoe for sure.
now only if these will be widely available..that'll be great
Love Kobe’s!!
Kobe! Kobe! Kobe! Kobe! Kobe! Kobe! #Lakers4Life
Solid video as always. Hope a W on these in my future. Also give me a product vs a move to live on forever!
