Great review as always! I like the objectivity in the video too! But to someone like me, who grew up with the monster of a shoes like Larry Johnson's Destroyers or Rodman's, or KJ's or even Master P's and the beastly Tar Max, these are a hell of a joke. Not to mention that they look like a 20-30 dollar outlet bound joints... To me Nike is killing Converse slowly. I know that there's a lot of Chuck Taylor fans, but these can't be serious performance basketball sneaker, no matter the tech used in them. The materials looking cheap and this exact colorway makes them to look even more cheap. This is a plain simple shoe, that doesn't give that spark to your imagination which would increase your desire to play on the court and would give you that "super power"... These are my 2 cents.
