I feel like you're the only sneaker UA-camr that is not absolutely addicted to consumerism. Sometimes I watch other channels and I am concerned for them-- I feel as if they are unaware actually how addicted they are to spending money. Literally every other channel is focused on "why you NEED this shoe"
Yea I do feel sometimes the whole point of sneaker UA-cam, which in my opinion is supposed to create a community of like minded sneakerheads, does get lost.
“Catch and Release” can be a cool name idea for the series lol it’s a term used for fishing 🎣 pull a huge catch out the water, take the pic, and throw it back in the wild 🔥
Yo, I have been eyeing the Terramoa in both the Silver/Black and Gold/Tan Brown colorways and that's one of the reasons i love this channel so much - u don't just cover hype sneakers but give love to other under the radar brands & models. Also, I think me and you both have the exact same feet in terms of width since I follow ur sizing guide religiously and so far hasn't been let down. Sizing up 0.5 in Asics and the XT6 fits my foot exactly like urs and so glad I can have a sneaker ytuber to reference size-wise. Anyways amazing vid as always brother - can't wait for the sneaker gems u will bring to our attention this year. Peace.
Enjoying the content JD, surely a worthy topic - in need of downsizing also. I just need to reduce clutter and eliminate sneakers I don’t need use or get value from anymore. Btw ASICS Gel 1130 x Hal Studios “Galcier” is 🔥 - a clean look and nice suede! It also reminds me of the JFG 990v4 “1998” - OUTRO. If u lace swap, it will be quite similar from the perspectives of colours and how the materials look. Worthy pickups for sure. Also a lot of sneaker UA-camrs struggling to differentiate themselves at this time and more or less regurgitating the same thing , yet your content is unique and a joy to watch. Keep it up 👏
I’m on the chunky shoe/lace vibe atm. I can’t get enough of my puma suede XL’s. A fraction of the price you are paying for Lanvins, Represent Bullies and Mihara Yasuhiro’s
Please make more videos like this. My favorite video of yours was the financial advice for sneaker heads. While I’m not a sneaker head anymore, I like watching videos on how we can enjoy fashion and not spend money
Nice Content. I love the hal studio asics. There are so comfy and i wait for constantly dry weather here around Berlin. The contrast at the custom sachs are great, maybe the midsole are a bit to yellow imo. But the idea to customize it, is nice!
Yo homie I just came across your channel and you made my day lol… it’s so refreshing in this day and age to have a fellow Sneaker enthusiast, who not only has his own taste and ideas, he also shared them with the public. Lol… I just grabbed pair of Jordan 2 bred’s for $97 while all the 🐑 🐑🐑🐑 are going nuts for the 4’s… Never ceases to amaze me… perform your own thoughts, people! And found this man’s example and learn some words with more than two syllables in them… Lol
maybe it comes with age but I've been doing exactly the same thing. So many of my pairs either don't feel right on my feet anymore (flyknit racers) or worn for a few days in summer. I ended up listing so many pairs on Klekt as used - didn't see the use in holding onto random pairs that were taking up space. Would rather get some money back and let someone else enjoy them!
So I switched out the laces on my Tom Sachs for cream and they have been my go to all year since I bought them. The Tom Sachs stuff doesn't affect my opinion on the shoe, which is absolutely dope. If sneakers were invented in the early 1900's they would have looked similar to them. Also I think they are the closest thing to a converse low top that nike ever made.
This is like a yearly ritual for me. Start selling or even giving away shoes that I just no longer like. Our taste does constantly change lol one day you like something, the next you do again. But having so many shoes becomes overwhelming 😂
Being a big enthusiast of AM1's, I' have over 20 pairs in my collection. I'm well aware that certain pairs require more wearing to break them in, depending on the materials. It is regrettable that you decided to part ways with a splendid pair like the Patta Noise Aqua. I hope the new owner will make good use of them.
the hal studios x asics 1130 glacier colorway is one of my favorite sleepr sneakers i picked up on release. once i had them in hand, i knew they were worth it. & yup, youre right theyre super comfy
@@idcjake10 unfortunately i don’t have any new balance 990s. but i’ll say i have a wider foot, and i’ve gone true to size with all my asics models and they all fit me fine. 1130s are wider and more forgiving in the toe box than say a gel kayano 14 tho, maybe go up half a size for a gel kayano 14, but for 1130s i say go true to size. i think josh did a review on them too if you wanna watch that to get a better idea
@@jugg3rnog appreciate the feedback. I happened to come across a shoe store and they had 1130s to try on. It wasn’t too much of a difference and the 11’s fit super comfortable after being on feet all day (10.5 had a more secured fit). I’m impressed by how comfortable they are
@@idcjake10 yeah if i had the luxury of going down a half size i would but im a size 13 so it basically never happens lol. glad you got to try them on tho
„Wear or sell“ might be a name for the series. Love the new background 😇. If Im considering buying a product i first look at my collection and think is there already something similar or is it replacing something ? So i rather sell and buy then
Wearing my hal studios forest green pair. Also my most worn shoe since I got em. Glacier pair still ds, love em so much that I gifted my mom a pair. She loves em
The Patta Air Max 1 hurt my feet even with the Move all day insole 😢. I brought it to Hawaii for the island vibes but switched to my 2002r by evening time. It was surprising the insole didn’t even help.
I had to sell my AM1 big bubble pair for the same reason. Literally every time I wore them, my left ankle would hurt so bad. I’ve never had a shoe do that before.
Welcome to the old man club LOL! Once you become older you just want cushioning upon cushioning. You just can't get enough cushioning. Recently picked up some Puma RS-X, might pick another one up or either get a New Balance 580 or a pair of On Running.
I have all 3 pairs of the gps shoes... I almost stopped wearing them partly bcoz of the controversy and also I just was into many other shoes... But recently I started wearing the brown pair again... Which I initially thought was the worst colorway... But now I am kinda liking it...I think the brown one looks way better when its worn and used heavily...
I definitely understand where you're coming from when it comes to separating the creator from the shoe. I like the general purpose shoe and the message behind it despite the allegations. 700 wave runner is still a top 10 shoe of all time for me, even with Kanye's antics, lol.
Loved the vid bro but how could you find the Patta Air max 1's uncomfy? I have these and genuinely one of my most comfy sneakers, up there with foam runners
I’m literally wearing that brown color way now while at work lol and yeah I don’t rock with those allegations but I ignore it and wear the shoes and plus most ppl won’t know anything about the shoes just another Nike to them .
i have a storage unit full of my old shoes and clothes that i now have to pay $170 per month just for storage as it wont fit in my home because i listened to what people on youtube and facebook groups said was popular to buy and i dont use any of it 😂
I think you’re going through what eventually every person getting up there in age realizes. You got caught up with the hype and accumulated too many shoes like a street addict. Don’t rationalize around it. It happens.
I am torned I don't feel comfortable wearing my Tom Sachs and Alexander Wangs because of the baggage...the Yeezys, easy, I gave those away...time to move on and those designs aged like milk design-wise IMHO
I'm also in downsizing season. Getting rid of a bunch of stuff i havent worn or dont ware any more. Much easier said than done but so far I'm knocking down about 6+ shoes of my 20+ sneaker collection. Also i have a bunch of other stuff going on in my life and shoes are the bottom priority in all of this. Goodbye AMM 4's, Carhartt 990v6 and Asics Jess Gonsalves, i hardly knew you! 🫡

Yea I do feel sometimes the whole point of sneaker UA-cam, which in my opinion is supposed to create a community of like minded sneakerheads, does get lost.
I feel you. I have unboxed dozens of shoes on youtube myself, but I only have kept about 15 pairs in total.
“Catch and Release” can be a cool name idea for the series lol it’s a term used for fishing 🎣 pull a huge catch out the water, take the pic, and throw it back in the wild 🔥
I like this change up of content and it’s relatable to many sneakerheads. Looking forward to more like this.
It's nice to hear more about the shoes than just the standard review. Great video
Thanks for feedback

Those asics are fuego. I like sneakers that your typical consumer would dislike. The crazier the midsole the better.
Your videos are always uplifting, keep that vibe 🙌🏻
Thesse asics give me retro 12 vibes looking at them from above, prety clean
Please make more videos like this. My favorite video of yours was the financial advice for sneaker heads. While I’m not a sneaker head anymore, I like watching videos on how we can enjoy fashion and not spend money
Thanks will do
Liking this concept! Something different but relatable.
'Keep Close' - not quite the opposite of 'pick up' but it's what you're looking to keep and use!
Keep Close.....intriguing 🤔
I’m the same way with Solomon’s as you are with the air max 1, as great as they look they’re not for my feet
Haha yea everyone has that one shoe that simply cannot be worn
Nice Content. I love the hal studio asics. There are so comfy and i wait for constantly dry weather here around Berlin.

That black Kiko ASICS is reminiscent of an AJ12 to me.

Going to start wearing mine more as well

Keep up the good content dude ❤
Thank you thank you!
Love the Hal studios asics
Love this type of new format! Please do more of this
And definitely not feeling those black ASICS I’m sorry 😂
haha its not for everyone

great looking shoe, just not made for me though
the hal studios x asics 1130 glacier colorway is one of my favorite sleepr sneakers i picked up on release. once i had them in hand, i knew they were worth it. & yup, youre right theyre super comfy
How is the sizing compared to say, new balance 990 series? I’m a 10.5w and unsure if an ASICS 10.5 or 11 would be best
@@idcjake10 unfortunately i don’t have any new balance 990s. but i’ll say i have a wider foot, and i’ve gone true to size with all my asics models and they all fit me fine. 1130s are wider and more forgiving in the toe box than say a gel kayano 14 tho, maybe go up half a size for a gel kayano 14, but for 1130s i say go true to size. i think josh did a review on them too if you wanna watch that to get a better idea

Those Gel 1130’s are 🔥🔥
I have those Hal studios pair as well and haven’t worn them yet. Looking forward to warmer weather to bust them out.
Defo a summertime banger

Saving glaciers for the summer
Yeeeee JD crazy s sweater

Yea it’s something about the width of that shoe it’s a bit narrow for me
I had to sell my AM1 big bubble pair for the same reason. Literally every time I wore them, my left ankle would hurt so bad. I’ve never had a shoe do that before.
Glad to know I’m not the only one
@@JoshDominic Definitely not. I hated to do it because I liked them so much, but had to. I just can’t make that silhouette work.
Welcome to the old man club LOL! Once you become older you just want cushioning upon cushioning. You just can't get enough cushioning. Recently picked up some Puma RS-X, might pick another one up or either get a New Balance 580 or a pair of On Running.
Haha matter of fact I literally bought my first pair of ON this week
That custom is fire 🔥 who cares about Sachs !!! Wear em
My concepts 1s are quite comfortable, however the shape of the Pattas is different. The ASICS are 🔥rock em at Berghain.
Easily getting into Berghain with those
I have all 3 pairs of the gps shoes... I almost stopped wearing them partly bcoz of the controversy and also I just was into many other shoes... But recently I started wearing the brown pair again...

Closet clean out series
Yeeeee JD need to sell some
Of my kicks that are sitting around too
yessir

I’m still wearing Yeezys IDGAF
This year I am focusing on buying my grails 👑😎
Yesssir
I call it curating my collection.
Very good
Loved the vid bro but how could you find the Patta Air max 1's uncomfy? I have these and genuinely one of my most comfy sneakers, up there with foam runners
Weird man mine felt super narrow
Hey, where do you usually sell your sneakers in Berlin ?
I usually just post them on my Instagram but other great places to sell are Vinted, Depop and eBay Kleinanzeigen
Asics hype at full swing I see - would it end same fast as it start 😅
I don't think so.Asics has a cult following outside coutries like the US.
If I wear AF1 in size us 8,5 NB860v2 in us 9, which ASICS size take ? Us 9 or 9,5? I have wide foot ?
US 9 should be good for you
@@JoshDominic thanks you!!
I’m literally wearing that brown color way now while at work lol and yeah I don’t rock with those allegations but I ignore it and wear the shoes and plus most ppl won’t know anything about the shoes just another Nike to them .
That’s a fact, we assume everyone is following sneaker news but most people don’t know about it
i have a storage unit full of my old shoes and clothes that i now have to pay $170 per month just for storage as it wont fit in my home because i listened to what people on youtube and facebook groups said was popular to buy and i dont use any of it 😂
Got a storage unit as well 🤣
Yo josh where is the sweater from?
It’s from Stussy
Collection recap
ID on Porsche sweater?
It’s from Parra
opposite of pickup is a letgo
Sneakers Let Go's…let me think on that
We need more of this series
kick flip diaries
Always separate the art from the artist, still wear my Yeezys
And all for the Asics Berlin brutalism btw, won't be for everyone but that's the point!
Haha yea I feel like that shoe was made for me
I think you’re going through what eventually every person getting up there in age realizes. You got caught up with the hype and accumulated too many shoes like a street addict. Don’t rationalize around it. It happens.
I am torned I don't feel comfortable wearing my Tom Sachs and Alexander Wangs because of the baggage...the Yeezys, easy, I gave those away...time to move on and those designs aged like milk design-wise IMHO
"The shoes that looks great on your feet but not comfortable" quotes by air jordan 4 😂
I think everyone agrees here
Monthly unload videos..
"drop offs"
Tbh I could care less bro, I like the shoe. The person isn’t my family so I don’t mind about the allegations
i agree
Those black ASICS are disgusting 🤢
😁
I'm also in downsizing season. Getting rid of a bunch of stuff i havent worn or dont ware any more. Much easier said than done but so far I'm knocking down about 6+ shoes of my 20+ sneaker collection. Also i have a bunch of other stuff going on in my life and shoes are the bottom priority in all of this.
Goodbye AMM 4's, Carhartt 990v6 and Asics Jess Gonsalves, i hardly knew you! 🫡
