I told myself going into 2024 i was not going to buy anymore shoes till i started selling some of the ones i dont wear. Yeah that idea went out the window. Mainly bc the sneaker market is slow and people are not buying as much anymore. I have sold a few pairs but not nearly as many as ive bought XD
I wish they'd release the black del sol colorway of these! I had them in high school and someone stole them from my gym locker... They're pretty much a perfect shoe.
Not suckung up or trying to get cool points. But you two are really putting in work, Thank you. Really enjoy just hanging with the channel. Such cool vibes, and to top it off, you actually provide fire content. Eat that algae rhythm
You literally hit the mark every time I watch your reviews, bro I had to personally tell you that the reason I pick up a lot of kicks and will be going to pick my eyes up tomorrow finally Kobe’s in the collection! 💯🖤🦖⛹🏾♂️🐍🥵
I sprained my ankle about 4 weeks ago and been off the court since but I religiously watch your videos to still feel something LMAO love how hard you guys been grinding and I really appreciate y'all
Can't tell you guys enought but I really enjoy watching the reviews on this channel. The reviews are straight forward and no gimmick without a bunch of clapping or other distractions.
Every few years I sell a number of shoes to pay for a trip with the family. As a lot of people have mentioned, shoes are selling as much now, so no trip!! Keep grindin'!!
$190 for heel zoom all the while people were up in arms about the Book 1s setup. People forget that the two shoes he played in most were the 4 and AD both of which only have heel zoom. All that to say i love the 4s 😂 I try to keep it at a "reasonable" sneaker guy number and then once it gets to be too much, they go up on eBay or donated depending on the shoe. And yes, a reasonable number is still far more sneakers than anyone actually needs.
The fact that Nike hasn’t hired You and the Mrs’s is a major fumble on their part. Every video is educational and a straight up honest review from Legit sneakerheads, I hate that term btw 😂 keep up the good work 🍻
So I don’t really buy sneakers at release day, but I really liked these. I joined the draw at 11am, waited the 10 minutes for the draw to close, then they tell me “sorry you didn’t get them.” Now I know why I don’t buy the damn things on release day. I shouldn’t have to beg a shoe company to take $190 from me for a pair of shoes. It shouldn’t be harder to buy a pair of sneakers than it is to win the goddam lottery
Welcome to the real world, limited supply and high demand means you don't always get what you want. Toughen up buttercup, enter the next RAFFLE and see what happens.
I have two rules, 1) if I don't wear them in a year, they get sold. 2) I made a maximum of 5 pairs. If I want something new, and I already have 5 pairs, I got to sell 1.
I've sold about 30 pairs over the last 6 weeks on ebay just to get rid of the clutter. I love kicks but the older i get the more i dont need 20 pairs a year just to hoop in anymore...I'm 43
QOTD: Thanks for the answer, Chris. It's good to know you're willing to be transparent about how this channel works. You are definitely my first resource for figuring out the quality of each release--like I've said before, that makes the difference for me between a buy and a pass. I'm happy to support you with my likes and my comments and my middle fingers to that ma hunchy algorithm. If I could guarantee myself one draw win this weekend, I think this would be the pair.
Great review and still torn on if I want to go after the 4s or 6s on SNKRS. 🤷🏻♂️ But I am a little disappointed that the number on the back is 24. The original pair it was “23”.
These are the ones I would get if I was going to get a pair. I'm a wearer though and can't justify the cost. There's a price point where it only makes sense to purchase if you're only going to hold them and resell them later... these will be there. Great to hear you're independent. Big+ for independent reviews... and you've always come across that way. Thank you.
I’m a little mixed myself. Some I keep some I donate some. I sell when I’m bored of them. In total I have about 40 to 50 pairs of shoes. Some are for display/collecting the others I wear.
Currently at about 250 pairs organized and a whole bunch that are not yet organized. Luckily I have lots of friends with a similar sized foot so they always get first dibs if I'm "downsizing"
Great video, thanks @WearTesters. My question to Nike though: how exactly are these a PROTRO, when Nike basically dowgraded just about every tech spec in the shoe that actually matters? The midsole is a darn downgrade of the original (not even a React pad in the forefoot, really?), that’s for sure, and no upgrade in the materials department either. Remember Nokia? I bet that’s how we’re going to remember Nike sometime in a not-so-distant-future, with how they are acting lately…
aLLLgorithm! When I amass too many I take mine to Sole Supremacy... and basically start all over again! The only things that really stay with me are performance models and Curry's.
i peaked at 63 pairs in 2017, now down to 7 pairs as of today. for the question of the day: what is a shoe model (colorway optional) that best matches your personality?
I usually keep shoes for a period of time. If I like to wear them casually, I keep them longer. Now that I'm playing again, if I get a pair and just find that I'm not playing in them much or don't like playing in them, I'll sell them and put that toward something new I want to try.
I have just over 30 pair of kicks and I rotate. If funds permitted, I'd buy more cos love me some SBs and AJ signature line with a smattering of one or two other pairs but it is what it is so am grateful for what I have 👍
Appreciate your reviews been watching your channel for some time now so insightful every time, great job, also where did you get the Cyclops shirt from?
Make more Kobe’s John Donahoe!!!! Not just more colorways but make them in large numbers period! Tired of not being able to get any of his shoes! Been a fan of his since I was a kid man and all these pairs now we are adults we can’t get man it’s sad!!!
Not seen any release info for these in Canada so far. Not that Kobe's fit me anyway, but, they're pretty. I did state last year that I was moving to a one in, one out policy when it came to the collection. Yeah, that didn't work out too well. 1 pair in Black Friday, 3 pairs for Christmas, 2 recently, 2 pairs of Timberlands...
For all the Sneaker Heads who are 30 years old or older and who are Kobe fans, the shoes that matter to us are the ones that Adidas is going to release, I'll explain why... at the end of the 90s it was normal for you to ask your mother the Last Kobes or the last Vince Carter. At the beginning of the 00s, wearing skateboarding shoes began to become popular, so kids asked their parents for Osiris, DVS, DC, etc. No one asked for basketball shoes anymore, so the Adidas Kobe Bryant collection was the last great sneaker from the time when we all wore basketball shoes for our best outfit. Kobe's line with Nike is very relevant for those who love basketball and know about the sport, but for popular culture they are just another basketball shoe, totally contrary to what Adidas achieved by making Sneakers for Pop Cilture.
Glad to see a fully funded channel like Weartesters out here. You’ve been honest with us since you started doing this instead of selling out like some other channels. My collection has fluctuated over the years. There was a time when I used to buy 2-3 pair of some of my grails when given the opportunity. When times got financially tough, I was able to sell some of my collection, but I would try my best to keep my grails. Fast forward a few years later, I liquidated most of my collection, and kept about 20 pairs that I know I couldn’t live without just to get a decent down payment for my house. At the end of the day, sneakers come and go, and brands like Nike/Jordan Brand will eventually retro/re-release things we bought and sold. I’ll just sit back and wait until I can see some of the things I’ve let go come back for me to possibly purchase in the future.
Although your awesome content and great personalities lead the way, I truly appreciate that your channel is self-funded. You’re not beholden to anyone or any corporation. You guys are real, simply put. Question: do you get FOMO on any of the newer releases, or do you just roll with it if you don’t get a new release?
What a shame that they don't release a Protro of this with full-length Zoom. That would be as good as it gets. What's your favorite Kobe Protro? I remember that you really liked the 1; I can't remember how you felt about the 5.
Some of the big brands should really invest in Chris and let him cook a shoe or two with full creative control. Would love to see that one before I kick the bucket
As far as "collection" goes, I only have 2 Jordans (2020 fire red 5s and the 72-10 11s. The a couple of Adidas retro running shoes with boost for when I know I'll be walking a lot.
Great video. But question: Can you hook us up with some weartesters merch. I like the other merchandise you have. But I want something with that red "W" logo and the circle. Just simple, clean on a nice white t and not too big but not too small of a logo.
Leaving my question again, since it was ❤ed by you two... QUESTION: If you could have one shoe come back every 2-3 years with necessary interior tech/luxury improvements... What would that shoe be?
Can you get your hands on a pair of the upcoming Nike Air Max 1 '86 OG' Jackie Robinson ????? I have questions about quality and materials before I buy them, and you're my go-to nowadays. I'll wait right here 😂😂😂
Love it and hope I cop something Saturday Dope shoe. I usually just sell off what I’m not really tripping on keeping esp if it’s close to another colorway I rock often.
Saw them in 2011 or 2012, forgot...on foot while I was overseas. Anyway, I told myself I'll get them when I get back tonthr states and never did. My heart still hurts....😅
They look nice...some more colourways would be cool...maybe some suede hits, but really I'm guessing they are still a player's shoe rather than lifestyle....maybe.
I think it’s great we’re getting 3 offerings all on the same day. But man, if you were trying to get all 3, good luck! I have what I feel like is a lot of shoes. Like more than I should and I’m not a huge content creator lol
Hey, love the vid yall. I just had a question though. I have had stress fractures in my shins for 2 years and i can't figure out how to get rid of them. How did you heal your legs? Thanks!
I am up around 240-250 pairs, still buying almost every week it feels like and trying to make an effort to sell more but they ain't shifting like I'd expect.
I think I have around 40 pairs and I probably wear around 10 of them regularly. I don’t have any pairs I keep on ice because I can’t afford to double up and I believe in wearing shoes lol
Any shoe that I haven't worn into the ground but am no longer wearing, I donate to those in need. I had the Kobe 4 Philly back in the day and the color was pretty much the same as the protros. the original version had #23 on the back and I never understood why.
Hi Chris, since we are doing comments now, I was wonderwondering if you could answer a question I have. No problem if you don’t want to. Avenged Sevenfold has a guitar player that is wearing a high top Nike , they are black mainly with a white mid-sole,they remind me of a Kobe 1 but something’s different. IDK, if you could I would love to know. Thanks Gordo. You still the best at what you do. 🤘
How do these fit compared to the gift of mamba 4s? I heard TTS was the way to go for 4s, but those were a bit snug for me TTS. I haven't played in them yet so maybe they break in...?
I have too many shoes. It's just a fact. I wear almost everything, but I do have a few that are so special to me that I'm nervous to wreck them... but I need to get over it and enjoy them while they are wearable. It's also tough being in the PNW, because the weather is so gross for so much of the year, and a white mesh AM90 (for example) doesn't enjoy that.
I told myself going into 2024 i was not going to buy anymore shoes till i started selling some of the ones i dont wear. Yeah that idea went out the window. Mainly bc the sneaker market is slow and people are not buying as much anymore. I have sold a few pairs but not nearly as many as ive bought XD
Same brotha, it’s getting a little crazy and it’s not even close to the end of the year
Same!!!!!
Same. 😅 4 pairs and counting
I can relate 😂
I’m a 9.5 or 10… what you got? 😊
Chris knows his kicks well. I always tune in to see how the shoe sizing are on certain shoes. It helps when I know what size to buy.
I wish they'd release the black del sol colorway of these! I had them in high school and someone stole them from my gym locker... They're pretty much a perfect shoe.
the reps of those are decent, but even the best 1s don’t compare to retail
These look amazing. The added vibrancy in the colour is welcome.
Thank you for keeping the real honest reviews since 2009! I’ve been a subscriber/fan since 2013 and I love every single video!
Not suckung up or trying to get cool points. But you two are really putting in work, Thank you. Really enjoy just hanging with the channel. Such cool vibes, and to top it off, you actually provide fire content.
Eat that algae rhythm
Much appreciated!
You literally hit the mark every time I watch your reviews, bro I had to personally tell you that the reason I pick up a lot of kicks and will be going to pick my eyes up tomorrow finally Kobe’s in the collection! 💯🖤🦖⛹🏾♂️🐍🥵

Your review of the kobe 4 was the first vid of yours i watched now years later im still watching ❤
Those reflective details are dope. 👍🏽👍🏽
I need a pair!! Kobe 4 is my favorite
Out of these 3 Kobes, these are the best looking. Fingers crossed to cop a pair!
The question at the end of the video was one of the best so far.
You always have really good reviews. Thank you. Very Helpful.
The fact that Nike hasn’t hired You and the Mrs’s is a major fumble on their part. Every video is educational and a straight up honest review from Legit sneakerheads, I hate that term btw 😂 keep up the good work 🍻
Man keep it up guys! Been here for years and its always my best choice ‼️luv from Germany 🇩🇪
I love the stars on the shoe!
My favorite sneaker channel ❤
This colorway is 🔥. Love that 3M.
So I don’t really buy sneakers at release day, but I really liked these. I joined the draw at 11am, waited the 10 minutes for the draw to close, then they tell me “sorry you didn’t get them.”

@@uRadarr why do I have to be tough when it comes to buying a pair of shoes?
I have two rules, 1) if I don't wear them in a year, they get sold. 2) I made a maximum of 5 pairs. If I want something new, and I already have 5 pairs, I got to sell 1.
My fav out of all the drops tomorrow. LET’S GOOOOO!
I've sold about 30 pairs over the last 6 weeks on ebay just to get rid of the clutter. I love kicks but the older i get the more i dont need 20 pairs a year just to hoop in anymore...I'm 43
Thanks again for another dope review.
Thanks for watching!
So enjoying reviews from this channel 🥰🥰
Glad you like them!

These are so nice! Also hyped for the Girl Dad
Paid resale for these. Had too they’re too nice
Don’t blame you, I’m thinking about doing the same. Shoe is awesome
Awesome review as always. 🔥
Hope I can get a pair of these.
These are the ones I would get if I was going to get a pair. I'm a wearer though and can't justify the cost.

I wish nike can also protro kobe's budget line, or the Huarache 2K4 since it's been 20 years since its first release.
Yeah, when is Nike going to retro the 2K4s again?
Currently at about 250 pairs organized and a whole bunch that are not yet organized.
Luckily I have lots of friends with a similar sized foot so they always get first dibs if I'm "downsizing"
I won one of the holidays pairs. Weartesters always gives back.
Funny how the phillys and camo's sat back in the day. You could get them under retail now they are selling out.
Great video, thanks @WearTesters.

always go half size up unless u want a snug fit

I agree! I was this kid.. and literally wore all the shoes you named in 98-2000 lol awesome comment my guy!!
Anyone else hit on the military blue 4s ? I can’t wait for the review!
I need the protro of this pair. This is my first ever nike kobes. Still got the OG pair
Glad to see a fully funded channel like Weartesters out here. You’ve been honest with us since you started doing this instead of selling out like some other channels.

The original Kobe 4 Philly has the number 23 on the back. ❤

bro nightwing, can you make a sneaker review about kobe 6 italian camo? thanks!
Can you get your hands on a pair of the upcoming
Nike Air Max 1 '86 OG'
Jackie Robinson
?????
I have questions about quality and materials before I buy them, and you're my go-to nowadays. I'll wait right here 😂😂😂
Fingers crossed you review the adidas KB8 II aka crazy 98!
I love the protro 4. So light and fits is perfectly snug with just enough ankle support. They are def top 3 for me
Same snug with GoM kobe 4??? Im playing size 9 with gtcuts lebrons and kds... should i go to TTS??? Please response
still got my og mpls iv. might restore them just to rock casually. can't seem to buy new ones due to limited release. 😂
6:30 does anybody know why the first release of the Philly has number 23 on the back instead of 24 like the Protro? 2️⃣3️⃣⁉️
Prob because his dad wore 23? Idk
These are growing on me
Kobe had a legendary sneakers 3Peat 4,5,6 🐐
Love it and hope I cop something Saturday
Dope shoe. I usually just sell off what I’m not really tripping on keeping esp if it’s close to another colorway I rock often.
For the algorithm! This is probably the most wearable of the upcoming Kobe pack for me.
These are so nice, I really hope I can get them 🤞
Saw them in 2011 or 2012, forgot...on foot while I was overseas.
Anyway, I told myself I'll get them when I get back tonthr states and never did. My heart still hurts....😅
Would love to get susnset 6s, what the kobe 8, chaos 4s. These are nice but let the kids have them
They look nice...some more colourways would be cool...maybe some suede hits, but really I'm guessing they are still a player's shoe rather than lifestyle....maybe.
I think it’s great we’re getting 3 offerings all on the same day. But man, if you were trying to get all 3, good luck! I have what I feel like is a lot of shoes. Like more than I should and I’m not a huge content creator lol
Let’s see a full shoe closet review!
Hey, love the vid yall. I just had a question though. I have had stress fractures in my shins for 2 years and i can't figure out how to get rid of them. How did you heal your legs? Thanks!
Rest is the only way to let them recover.
I am up around 240-250 pairs, still buying almost every week it feels like and trying to make an effort to sell more but they ain't shifting like I'd expect.
I’m sorry you’re having such bad luck. My asshole bleeds for you
Love the Heigh of Kobe 4 , what insole did OG.s come with Chris ?
Hit on snkrs first Kobe 4 🙌🏼
Thank you for saving me money on multiple occasions 👍🏻
Happy to help!
Its sad we still cant get kobes for retail , resellers still getting about 70-90% of all releases :(
I love these ...but as a 4e foot @weartesters ..I can't wear them :(
I think I have around 40 pairs and I probably wear around 10 of them regularly. I don’t have any pairs I keep on ice because I can’t afford to double up and I believe in wearing shoes lol
Another solid review🫡! Just out of curiosity which is your favorite out of the trio?
Any shoe that I haven't worn into the ground but am no longer wearing, I donate to those in need.
I had the Kobe 4 Philly back in the day and the color was pretty much the same as the protros. the original version had #23 on the back and I never understood why.
Surprisely hit on a raffle for these. Praying I hit on the Venice and Camo!
still kinna sad that they dont have full length zoom
Hi Chris, since we are doing comments now, I was wonderwondering if you could answer a question I have. No problem if you don’t want to. Avenged Sevenfold has a guitar player that is wearing a high top Nike , they are black mainly with a white mid-sole,they remind me of a Kobe 1 but something’s different. IDK, if you could I would love to know. Thanks Gordo. You still the best at what you do. 🤘
Great review!
How do these fit compared to the gift of mamba 4s? I heard TTS was the way to go for 4s, but those were a bit snug for me TTS. I haven't played in them yet so maybe they break in...?
I want these so bad. Colorway also works for the clippers.
Can u do a studio tour and toy and shoe tour? All different videos of course
Check out our latest upload.
I have too many shoes. It's just a fact. I wear almost everything, but I do have a few that are so special to me that I'm nervous to wreck them... but I need to get over it and enjoy them while they are wearable. It's also tough being in the PNW, because the weather is so gross for so much of the year, and a white mesh AM90 (for example) doesn't enjoy that.
I feel you fam, I live in Pnw as well and the rain definitely put damper on my rotation!
