3 SNEAKER HACKS TO MAKE UNION AIR JORDAN 4s BETTER!

[@swagdestroyer]

I never even noticed they had a solid window before. Looks better cut out lol.

[@S7ayMelo]

I noticed right away so happy someone cut it

[@kylewilson5702]

Bro shut up and cut the damn tongue!!!

[@rallerallybil]

Nah keep them og

[@jessyopoku3458]

Same

[@daveyvertelman1725]

It really does look better!

[@CatcherOfBass]

I like how you’re never worried about customizing your shoes

[@martymardb7878]

Yes, yes , yes !!!

[@heskicks]

I’m worried but I am more excited to try something different!

[@IamAlexPierce]

Tony probably fufu

[@flow2tech]

@@IamAlexPierce who cares.. A good fufu may as well be legit with what these high end rep dealers are pulling off now....

[@heskicks]

Congrats to Evan for winning the giveaway contest for these Union Air Jordan 4s! Turns out he lives in Oregon and I will hand deliver his pair when they arrive!

[@cmazz_318]

Thats whats up!! Cool, dont forget to film it. At least you may be able to recoup a few bucks through the content! Plus we want to see it.

[@damienjeremyweir4543]

DOPE

[@Frank72728]

Im really liking the folded tongue especially with low cut socks

[@rdb6677]

ode!!

[@grinder5000314483]

He crazy for opening it

[@CHS_BLue]

If the jumpman wasn’t so low they be igh but folded makes the tongue too low it coulda been a lil higher in the first place

[@kevinxiong9332]

These look so much better with the window cut out, hopefully I hit the black pair on snkrs!

[@LadyLeoASMR]

Same, alarm set!

[@Player-gx1eo]

No, not at all! The solid window is the soul of that shoe... you have every other model with cut windows, why don't you just enjoy these as they are or dont buy them if you dont like them how they are 🤷‍♂️

[@youngdagger1890]

@@Player-gx1eo ok it’s his opinion and u can’t tell people what to do with their money or do with things they spend their money on

[@natewatson6962]

the more you look at em... that colorway is fire. It looks like a slushie on a hot day or something. They honestly killed it dude I think ppl just had to get used to it.

[@variandavid377]

The colors were a little jarring to me at first but grew on me....and after you explained about the carryover from the AJ1 and seeing that correlation I dig it. I like the yellow laces for the same reason as you...coz it actually works with the shoe and matches that small union tag. Lastly, the materials used are great...that suede looks buttery and cut really thick. That was a major standout for me.

[@bestbeforeapparel]

Obviously the idea behind this shoe it is for people to customise them like this, THEY LOOK SO FIRE!

[@jaylane86]

Removing that frosted window was dope

[@Shlumbus69]

I really like those compared to the other colorway

[@kevincollins8620]

I flip flopped hard. Only time I've done this with a shoe. I love the shoe now. Not like. Love. Went from hate... To love.

[@GoopieG]

Same here. I’ll admit I went from not liking them to actually paying resale for these for the first time this year. I think they may be my sneaker of the year

[@kevincollins8620]

@@GoopieG You actually payed resell price on these my gai? Damn. I salute you for real my GEE. The resell price had me say "Daaaaamn" in the Friday Chris Tucker Smokey voice. Skull cracking prices. I'm a size 9. They are unobtainable to me now. Probably for life. I have over 300 kicks. Comfy. These can slide. The. Union Jordan's can slide. And SW Air max can slide. Some shoes aren't meant. Oh yeah and chunky dunky and strangelove. Them resell prices scare me. Ya'll that can do it remind me of wild west duelers.

[@flexathillcrest1]

Homies hated on me for the adidas zx8000 vapour pink but when these come out they suddenly ok with some pink. I dig the pop these will have with some darker jeans. Nice look.

[@zonkoooo]

Panels out looks great just so risky chopping these up. Also an amazing new color way for the 4. Almost reminds me of the pure platinum/solar Y2 release, except I prefer the lighter pair this time around. Glad I kept my energy on these.

[@onlyDTA]

I’m probably the only one who likes the solid wing. Don’t like how the red contrasts too much with the cut out

[@CarlosLopez-md1ei]

Prolly flip the blk tongue label upside dwn and maybe even over the top lid like an AJ 1. Could drill four perforated holes in the corners of the implied cut out center rectangle piece. But instead just draw dashes to kinda say "cut here".

[@jameshin01]

look much better. those 3 changes made it look dope specially the lace swap with that mustard yellow.

[@vonmitchell3921]

Definitely like the window cut out and tongue. I'm a bit iffy on the laces but the don't look terrible. Different but not bad

[@lukevincent6334]

i like you because you tell the truth about shoes

[@cinzinc9205]

Waaaay better with the window! You made me flip my mind on these

[@masterwontv]

They look nice with the tongues cut out and with orange laces!!! (and the windows cut out) Nice upgrades!!!👍👍

[@jdom2006to2012]

I personally would get some off white orange laces and add some paint speckle to the midsole and your changes to really set it off

[@ChillinwithChase]

I am not going to lie I was big on the pink pre release. But once I saw them on feet with pics honestly wasn't feeling it. I tried for the Black and once I got in hand I was lkke omfg these are beautiful. Now I just got to get my actual size.

[@xLastHopeForWorld]

You're crazy boy! 1k shoes as a costum but the result is awesome! I always wear my J1 Unions wirh the yellow/orange laces!

[@seanmw23]

Imo I like the way they look with the folded tongue, not necessarily more, but it’s def a cool look to me. Also nice haircut Hes 😎

[@walterroux291]

I know. I like all three details he changed more before than after. But to each their own.

[@blutoable]

Is that box only for the release for august? Or will the same box be released with oct. 16th restock?

[@UnitedThruMusic]

Great Video!

[@ericg1149]

Yellow laces really do change the look along with the tongue and wing window. Good work, looks way better

[@lolmaorofl]

It looks way better when you can afford them

[@YoItsMikeee]

Got my pair in today, still deciding if I want to keep them or not 😭 cutting out the wings are cool but I rather leave them how they designed it but still cool idea

[@israels841]

Keep them bro they fire. I hit on a 9.5 and trust i guarantee this shoe will always steal looks no matter where.

[@israels841]

Legit if u wear this shoe to target to buy water you’ll probably get asked about it because they catch so much attention

[@YoItsMikeee]

@@israels841 you garbage the shoe? wdym lol. Yea they're nice and all but I rather have OW 4's in the Bred color way. I already have Union 1's so I'm chillin. I'm definitely gunna hold on to the Guavas for a bit tho, if I hit on Off Niors then maybe keep the Guavas. We'll see

[@israels841]

mike ramones i meant to say guarantee

[@israels841]

mike ramones if u have the ones then yeah because you’d have Union already

[@FS-iu8xi]

I like that you took the time to altered this shoe. I prefer that way it was intended to look but they do look nice after alterations. Good video

[@xStrypes]

The cut out definitely makes it look like a true 4. Wonder if you could press or iron the tongue to flatten it out. Fire vid tho

[@mickey034]

Content like this makes ur channel exciting! Keep it up bro

[@dbz_g0d432]

They look so much better after this!!

[@blondetravonne]

Do you think I could bring these to a tailor to do the exacto knifing and the dremel to clean up the wings? I don’t trust myself to do that

[@alexyoung5798]

Your hoodie is 🔥. Did you dye it yourself and if not, where did you get it?? Haha

[@rommellthompson3150]

Looks way much better in my opinion Sneakers are meant to be worn . Brooklyn is watching

[@genkun8999]

Union exclusive's are always the best colour ways.

[@anonymoose42]

I hit my pair of them for retail and I never really hated them I was just slightly indifferent over pics but in hand they are a lot nicer than I expected

[@AP-mb8uo]

What you did is exactly what I was thinking to do and they look PERFECT! I just need to still obtain a pair:(

[@raindraphot3594]

guava ice is dope, will the shoe release again? wanna cop them

[@CHRIS-ec1ps]

I cut the middle of the wings off and unstitched the tongue. Makes the shoe 100x better 🔥

[@lolmaorofl]

You’re the next Virgil! When’s your signature shoe coming out?

[@CHRIS-ec1ps]

@@lolmaorofl soon, you buying ?

[@currents17]

The folded tongue makes it look perfect; like more of a lowcut sneaker and less like a big basketball boot shoe

[@jiveturkey3352]

I would never alter these at all by cutting anything. They look great as is dont mess with them.

[@JustCallMeAhmi]

I still hate that I missed out on these on release day. The Guava Ice color way is beautiful. I will eventually bite the bullet and reach back for them. Great video bro. 🔥

[@ktroopa]

These are nice! I personally wouldn't wear them because 4s look to big on me but I appreciate the design.

[@GSXR0311]

Looks dope! Only thing I saw on Instagram is you should add the cut out stitching to the top of the tongue. Looked cool on the black pair.

[@GoopieG]

Sneaker of the year no doubt. First shoe I’ve paid resale for in 2020

[@matthewerickson7672]

I was pretty surprised to see how fast people went to hate on these right away I definitely missed my pair last month but I’ll try again for the noir pair on SNKRS in a few weeks

[@carywilliams5364]

I like what you did. I've never liked those shoes (probably cause I'm old), but you actually made them tolerable.

[@MrWaarden]

So much better! If i get my hands on a pair i will do the same!

[@wyteboydak]

yea i didnt like them at first but after seeing more pics after release i completely changed my mind. im like in love w/ both of them & seeing this damn near made me drool, lmao! can't afford them rn, but im hoping to be able to own them & proudly wear the heck out of them sooner than later! if so im def gonna try to get the straps cut like you did these, that just gives it a whole new look. you just gained a new subscriber tho, lol.

[@j1stunna27]

Ayo what’s the name of your Nike hoodie? Or where you get it? Love the content!!

[@bernandinocamilo1946]

Changed the laces for another color but over all not bad 👏🔥🔥🔥

[@BrandedDubA]

This was my favorite color combination out of the pack. I was a little depressed when I found out that the guava ice would be a Union LA exclusive. I personally like stuff that’s different, not usually one to ride the high train. Was super happy I hit on sneakers app for the community gardens. I’ll keep my fingers crossed I can hit on October 16 for one of the three pairs. 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽 The lace swap was the hit for me 🔥🔥🔥, you could’ve done the double lacing too.

[@OyeBelafonte]

I’m team flip flop. I ending up copping the Guavas even tho I hated both pairs in the beginning. In hand the sole goes wells with the rest of the shoe. Still not a fan of the Noirs

[@taotaosun1733]

Love the new intro

[@abdielmaldonado3018]

Thats crazy how cutting that makes it look so much better but there is something about that folded tongue 👅

[@c.mokicks5461]

Super clean! Flip flopped... it’s the tongue. Once you fix that they’re dope! Both colors but I grabbed the Noir... btw the air bubbles are yellow too. Great vid man!

[@ImSosaBaby]

Im a fan of these shoes, but this made them look wayyy better

[@loscrows1836]

What you did made them look awesome! I don't think I could be able to do that to mine lol. I'd be too scared to mess them up.

[@tkorandycrawford4306]

I was looking at the hoodie where u get it it’s 🔥🔥

[@The_Babbling_Brooks]

Wait using the alternate laces that came with the shoes is considered a “hack” or “DIY”....So two hacks and a lace swap👍🏻 Love the end result. Looks dope.

[@brobi-wankenobi2369]

Looks WAY better. Nicely done Hes 🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@lasershow5235]

Wings look way better. Respect for having the cajones!

[@brantlytjon8378]

Are you going to do a review on the Sean Wotherspoon Adidas Super Earth? I would love to see what it looks like without the extra fabric. I know that its part of the story behind the shoe but the extra fabric can be used for something else.

[@dtdaniel05]

You made the shoe looked finished. Preschool to grown man. I hated them at first , now with what you did... I slightly don't like them now😁😂 but definitely wearable now. Great video.

[@fadycalderon3935]

you made these look way better even tho I still wouldn't personally cop

[@BlackipinoGambino]

I think the window cut out actually looks nice but I gotta say the other laces are better imo. or maybe a diff color. super dope of a giveaway

[@ManCave1972]

Big improvement but I was sweating that you’d slice right through the wings!

[@LUV2T8KU]

Those came out nice good job.

[@robertorimassa4899]

with these small changes they are much better, if they had released them with these details it would have been much better

[@cmazz_318]

Woooooo! Congrats Evan Kinkhammer!! Glad you kept the same energy. I respect it.

[@__Edward__]

The changes you made are dope! Lets be honest most of those who got these won't be rocking them anyways.

[@jessseow]

Still prefer the offwhite sail 4 to these. From the get-go the solid wings are an eyesore for me. I can live with the folded tongue in fact sometimes wear my ow4s with the tongue down but the solid wings - not cutting it for me (no pun intended)...

[@Starshipstoner]

These are fire and I love the unfolded tongue I think it was the extra pop the shoe needed

[@greendotdave]

I dig the Nike sweatshirt (though these kicks aren't for me) -- link to the sweater?

[@antoniomarquez1782]

The holes on the tongue are an eye sore. Plan on sewing those up and doing a lace swap with the black tip union laces.

[@dellwin9615]

Nice with the subtle changes. If would add somethin to it, maybe a dark violet on some part of the mid sole.

[@rashodwebber2021]

You just gained a follower... Soon as you did the tongue I’m like this looks so much better! And cutting the windows out?! 💯

[@jackshook3229]

i absolutely love all the unions

[@mrbigbag5600]

Love the tongue folded it’s the Nostalgia for me

[@sole4kickz]

The transparent windows looks better, I agree you notice more of the materials behind.

[@garenhuddy1981]

That Hoodie is fresh af, where did you get that.

[@paonitez]

They are 🔥

[@Tyler_tha_narrator]

Cutting the wings makes a different shoe. THOSE are fire. Not that I'm mad I didn't go for a pair, cuz I would caught a L anyway.

[@d.felixphoto2260]

Swapping to a frosted backtab would be nice too

[@treyhovathagod3782]

I thought these were trash originally but now I did em! Love the mods you made to them too!

[@RampartLosAngeles]

Yeah those small changes make the shoe look much better 💯

[@YudiTera]

Great I was curious to see them with the wing holes. Wouldn't swap the yellow laces though 🤔 Still don't think there worth more then 650 euro's 🤔 still like the off white 4 better alongside with the white Levi's 4 which are my top 3 with the white cement 🤔

[@DarkDreamer_]

I like yellow laces and cut out window, but in terms of the tongue, maybe this is an unpopular opinion, but I like flipped tongue more.

[@mackenzygourdet7451]

I want that shoe but way too expensive on to get them. Can you help me out find them at least for a decent price?

[@mikeljohnp]

Came out much cleaner 🔥

[@AllAboutNat]

Personally I'll be leaving my black pair as is. I prefer the tongue down tbh. Can't wait to get them, got a steal on stock x :)

I got these still dead stock and the black ones too. Might wait another year before I wear them
