@TheShoemmelier - What is your Ultraboost size? You didn't mention in the video. Just wondering if I should go with my Ultraboost size. Thanks for the great video!

Anything in navy/midnight navy mixed with whites or greys I can mix and match with all my Yankees and Giants gear so yeah these colors are at the top of my list and usually a must buy. Greens/orange/browns depending on shade are all kind of tied at second.

I just found the cave Saucony Omni 9 Pro that I've wanted but I bought these jae tips and I really don't want to buy another pair damnit

I got these Jae Tips from Saucony in the Pink and colorful pair for $153 bc I was able to use a discount code that went through 🎉

Did Saucony yank all the running tech outta this one when they brought it back? ✌🏽💙👟

Pure garbage 🗑

Yup if u have pants 👖 they pandas 😅

They look 👀 like pandas with brown in cal ohhh noooooo😢

The pink laces look good and brings attention and i have no problem with that bc I like a lot of pop. Watching this video made me realize that the shoe has pop on its on and the pink laces draw more attention to the laces and not the shoe. I see now that the purple laces, low key, makes the whole shoe pop evenly. The green laces does the same as the pink laces but in a calm way. I have no problem with any of the laces but, in my humble opinion, the purple laces are the way to go. This may be unnecessary but I’m going to breakdown my opinion. The pink laces to me is like showing off your cleavage, the green laces is like wearing a turtle neck, and the purple laces is like showing off your curves.

got'em

Literally just bought these today for every reason that was mentioned. I’m 39 with wife kids etc…but for me as a person who appreciates them for what they are I have to agree that they’re definitely worth it.

I think it’s a good looking shoe although a would have done blacklight print for anything on the collar. I appreciate you didn’t cut the footage showing all the glue on the midsole. My theory on the delay: Elliott Hill wants a 2025 W They anticipate higher demand I cannot think of another reason the brand would hold this back. ✌🏽💙👟

Sick KickingIt ATX shirt!!

Techbro here, yes I will be wearing these on Fridays when checking our servers haha

Whelp, looks like the Air Jordan 1 ‘Black Toe’ won’t be in contention for SOTY!

32. Just got my first pair. Love them.

So far, SOTY

Let’s pretend you didn’t mention another Jordan 1 in your argument. Jae Tips has yet to introduce a new silhouette, he’s following the Saucony archive anniversary retro schedule. I dig what he’s doing at the brand, and Saucony is leaning on him hard. But 2020 was the year of the Azura 2000 (although hype people didn’t immediately catch on until Tips touched it). 2021 was the year for the Jazz - Frank Cooke and CPC/Jordan Page were the tapped “it” guys for that. The Jazz celebration spilled into 2022. CPC/Jordan Page was next on the Grid Shadow 2 (Beach, Forest, Arctic) which was so well-timed. It, perhaps, began the wave of people who ignored Saucony taking sudden notice. Saucony also put Tips on the GS2, and the rest is history. I’m not discounting your pick - I think Tips deserves the love he’s getting. I’m just ensuring the history is remembered/told as it happened. Saucony is behind the genius archive schedule and rollout. Saucony is in the conversation because the brand put in the work picking the right boutiques and collaborations to land where it is in 2024. “Remember Who Fronted.” Taking even the slightest shot at the AE1? A brand actually knocked Nike off its Bball throne. People started trying to get fits off in a contemporary Bball silhouette. That same brand knocked Nike off the running podium with a $500 limited run shoe in the same year. Pharrell wore that shoe while carrying the Olympic torch. That led to the public demanding adidas release an adizero Adios marathon shoe that was exclusive to WB runways. It immediately sold out - a traditional road running flat at $250. But you managed to put Bad Bunny’s Gazelle in there without a caveat. We’re good. I would choose the adidas SL72 in the place of the NB loafer because it’s a protected archive model, on an every 4 years release schedule, that caught heat as the Samba did last year Footwear News put Samba #1. Check out all the colorways on the App. How many are sold out or nearly sold out? Some have been restocked 4 times this year before adidas shut them down. These are $100 GRs! Bjørn Gulden going in on Nike aged like a fine wine. Sorry this went so long. Good list. ✌🏽💙👟

Yes, Jae Tips Omni 9 sneaker of the year...

I didn’t agree, but I understood and appreciated your reasoning…until you said the Black Toes are top. Seems kind of contradictory to your other points as it’s just the same shoe reintroduced.

I did at 18 in 1997.

If I had to size up half a size for ultraboost due to it being too tight would you reccomend sizing up half a size for this silhouette as well?

No Howard branding killed it for me

Yo this yo dude from tradeblock! I lie these but not too different than the Doernbecher

Is it possible to remove the inner insole?

As a 25 year old man, in 2008 and 2011 I was way too young to even think about buying them. Now I can cop 2 …one for me and lil me

Mine arrived today, and MAAAAAAAN! The blue on these is crazy!! 😳

Houston Texans fit…at least for me

I was 20 when this shoe originally released and they were all sold out when I first saw them on a guy I was hopping with, I wanted them ever since, I’m 47 now and was able to find a size 11 at Hibbet , I wear an 11.5 but I don’t care this shoe was a bucket list for me I don’t care if they don’t fit😂

First time I saw foams I thought “Air Bakin 2” then they made the ‘Air Bakin Posit’ just to screw with us.

RAD. I HAVE BOTH COLORWAYS AND HOPE MORE COME OUT.

This is surprisingly nice!!!

Love this silhouette, my only gripe with this shoe has always been with the translucent bottom turning piss yellow, instantly turning these shoes into beaters.

I love kicks; but they sold out here in Detroit before the store

I don't really like the jordan 2, but these really spoke to me and got them discounted for 145CAD from JD Sports I can wear them forever, they're the most comfortable of all the shoes in my rotation

what a sleeper shoe

There's New Balance running shoes worth more than a pair of $240 Nike Air Foamposite One Penny's lol..seriously

Would you swap the laces for off white or white laces?

Beautiful shoe! Copped (in 3-5 business days)😅

I hit the button on SNKRS thinking that I wouldn’t get these, cause I just haven’t had that kind of luck (for anything, even outside of sneakers) recently, and seeing that “Got Em” screen had my inner child screaming lmao. Sure, that price isn’t pocket friendly, but if sneakerheads were worried about always making sound financial decisions, the industry wouldn’t be what it is today lmao.

this is just one of those colorways thats visually stunning always love the blue posite

ohh man, these came on my radar summer 97.. i wanted them sooo bad, but i just couldn’t get with that price!! i think i only knew one person that had them.. overlooked the other two releases due to me being a responsible parent.. but now that my son is a grown adult, i’m coming for everything i missed out on 😂😂 my pair will be here tomorrow! 😁🙌🏾

Sick and tired of that age look

🔥

Got mine earlier. Went outside to break it in and for some grocery. I can see people (mostly dudes) checking out my shoes.

They look cheap in hand

They are literally worth every PENNY.

No joke, you saying 240 for Foams is laughable because they last longer being worn daily past 10 yrs like brane new with a full length zoom air unit and are more durable than Jordans or any other shoe on the market for that matter. It's a steal at 252 after tax if you're being honest bang for buck. "I doubled up" on these, simply because the points that I've mentioned and these are the most recognizable Foams, arguably the most iconic. Jordans are 225-235 after tax nowadays and made with lower grade materials then they had 15 yrs ago while Nike switches the prices for the same models on a whim. So a 20 dollar difference for Foams is a way more reasonable decision, let's be serious. If you truly wear Foams, this is evident and not a debate because it's insane that people would even mention price for Foams is too high at a 20 dollar difference for way a better constuction and, "consistent" materials used. Jordans are still using cardboards under midsoles, what are we talking about 😂💯

34, favorite shoe all time didn’t think twice about it. Copped! Electric blues in 2011 introduced me to Foams

I agree with you. Videos did this shoe no justice. I had the original in 97 and just picked up the 2024 pair today and the color of this shoe is amazing such a deep rich blue and it's technically a sample pair turned into a GR. So glad I grabbed these for me and my 4yr old. PS he loves foamposite's
