I will never understand why Nike doesn’t want to make Kobe’s accessible for the masses. They would rather have other brands make a shoe that feels and plays just like their model. Meanwhile, people slowly over time will end up gravitating towards other brands for future purchases. Grateful for other brands for making great products!!

[@edwardcashh924]

I already switched to LaMelos, f*uck LBJ, thats what nike is pushing now

[@LordBass10]

just my 2 cents id say they don't want to take away sales from other products and they dont want them sitting again. They make them limited and hard to obtain and they can justify releasing more even though in most acts of business or atleast in shoes it doesnt make sense to limit product when those shoe mold cost thousands to create per size.

[@robs9872]

It’s greed on everyone’s end that benefits from those shoes.

[@davidgaddy4328]

I was thinking the samething. These pumas look just like kobes. I will definitely get a pair.

[@jrobinson4453]

they should have at least made a yearly general release model in a laker colorway. Kobe has so many fans that would appreciate it and make exclusive colorways more limited. I think that would be a fair balance for true fans, collectors and resellers

[@julienansay2979]

Incredible how legit Puma became those last 5 years. Most spectacular breakthrough with New balance, Li Ning and Anta. Is Nike still on the podium (perf wise)?

[@lionelgrisbane]

Nike is 🗑️

[@marie-louisefonrose8134]

Nike for the past 15 years are trash plain and simple they r just recycling old tech but with a new marketing spin on it . That's all . The most innovative shoes in basketball were released in the 2K like with the Answer/ Iverson shoe line reebok use to innovate and so did Adidas to a certain extent . So far rn the main Jordan line is hit and misses but mostly HIT from a tech/perf point but other than that it's marketing scam on steroid for shoes that are less durable and worse made than 20 years ago .

[@heyitsnheeeil5672]

Recycled models and overpriced

[@julienansay2979]

@@marie-louisefonrose8134 I can' t even more agree

[@julienansay2979]

@@marie-louisefonrose8134 I never want to hoop anymore with Nike. By far Puma & NB are more reliable

[@igoplord69]

Thanks for putting us on, man. As a brand snob myself, reviews like this make me take a second look at these other brands. Appreciate the review!

[@renceileto1776]

The "question of the day" just raised my anxiety level maaan 😭🤣

Yes. No need to expound. Just yes.

Puma has definitely become my go-to brand recently. Love their lifestyle collaborations too.

Thank you for your vids. Really enjoy them

Man, Puma been putting out quality products for a while now, very underrated. Nice job showing em love.👍

[@mikhailcc]

oooo Puma always making heat!!! thanks for the video Chris!! I’ve been buying too many basketball shoes but maybe one day I’ll try these 🔥

[@jojetparedes4024]

straightforward and honest breakdown as always. The shirt is just icing on the cake..

[@joshhutton9534]

These look like they could easily become one of my favorite Pumas since the Clyde All Pro. They just mentally look like a lower sitting shoe which has been an issue of mine the past couple of years. Date. No question

[@mikeybobs]

Looking forward to trying these out. Just got the Stewie 2 on clearance and they’ve become my go to hoop shoes. Keep up the great content!

[@CollinsMbu3]

Really interesting system. Love that you breakdown this stuff

[@hamzaerrahmouni8568]

Love the vids!

[@randomreviewsAR]

Great vid! I may pick these up!

[@fullcirclekicks]

i was anticipating your review once i saw these! Figured it was a drop in midsole, glad they went that route

[@MRVSKIN]

Always love the reviews 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@WearTesters]

Glad you like them!

[@Synlias1]

for the algorithm, I bought them after I saw your review pop up. Bit scared of the traction performance but been eyeing these for the last 3 weeks and cant wait any longer to see a performance review so this pushed me over (even though it isnt really a performance review offcourse :) ). So basically checking for myself! :)

[@chrishausaman1323]

These look fire! I am excited for the direction of basketball shoes lately they are starting to get cool again. Can't wait to see a review on the AE1 lows!

[@MingRose]

I actually dig the box and the outsole is so sick.

[@andrewtjm99]

Great review!

[@by_run]

Awesome review. Curious to see this shoe in-store and maybe try them on.

[@Cromartie22]

Love the vids! Been watching y’all since I was in middle school and you were still Nightwing haha

[@WearTesters]

That's awesome!

[@mwalkercpa]

Love the content!

[@ChibiTheEdgehog]

Puma has done Drop Ins. It's part of their "LQD Cell Challenge" line

[@rashadadderley6853]

The black pants for the on-feet portion is a nice touch. Haven’t seen that from any other reviewers and it almost makes the leg feel like it’s not even there.

[@helphelphelphelp6145]

I have been loving puma shoes for a bit now! The puma extent nitro has been my favorite lifestyle shoe!

[@bezerker93]

First video I ever watched of your and subscribed was Zoom soldier 3 when I was a teenager in AAU now I’m still watching trying to find shoes for my daughter first basketball season thank for being one of the only constants in life

[@MasterObiWanKenobi-db5ti]

Great review and very happy that Puma is keeping staying at the top of the game. After the Clyde all Pro and Nitro those Stewie 3 look promising

[@dollabill39]

Well done. Always. Dig those shirts!$

[@depaul124]

Great content 👍🏽

[@Jtmg528]

Love the channel ❤❤❤❤

[@goodcompanyman]

@10:22 Bonchon too fire LOL 😂

[@Dickens5632]

Love seeing a bunch of brands putting out bangers! I’d choose the date, and then I’d procrastinate everything until then like I do when I have an afternoon appointment on a day off lol

[@vsChris]

Absolute loved the Stewie 2, It’s probably my favorite hoop shoe right now. I can’t wait to try these out once they start releasing more colorways

[@anthonyeverett6382]

I'm definitely going to give Puma a try. Great review 🔥🔥🔥

[@mikey1220]

I’ve always played in Kobe’s since the original Kobe 1. When they started taking the shank out I sprained my foot and realized I needed a shank or at least a method of torsion support.

[@taylormilton3]

This is a very good video for sure. Thank you!

[@WearTesters]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@julienansay2979]

The look is kind of futuristic Puma Clyde! Really a great success from a visual and perd point of view. Puma succeeds to confirm that previous succès like Puma Clyde All Pro, Puma MB or Puma Clyde All Court weren’t an accident

[@zlatkokupsjak3558]

Great review.

[@attwoja]

The SPO/Puma factory callout was really interesting. Love seeing tidbits like that.

[@DanielMartinez-fu3pb]

Looks like an awesome shoe!! I am in on the date, but it would make the lead up to it super hard unless it was a long drawn out death like an illness of sorts. Keep grindin'!

[@eustarez5]

Looking forward to seeing more colorways!

[@jafwilding]

Good stuff Chris.

[@PCBBoysszzz]

Great vid

[@LeslieandMichaelKim]

Love the channel ❤

[@LeslieandMichaelKim]

Chris, you don't know how many kicks I copped after watching your reviews. In fact I wait for your reviews before I purchase. 😂

[@HoopInTheBackyard]

Im really thinking bout getting these to try out!

[@pfvision]

damn me, this gotta be the one where you really convince me to try a brand taht i wont normally give the time of day and belive me, you've been doing that a couple of times over the years I've watched you. Great shoe, they look amazing and the drop in convince me to try it out.

[@anthonycole8925]

I have never been disappointed in a Puma basketball shoe, and the Stewie line is always 🔥

[@ojwhittle4960]

Always watch you guys first before buying a shoe for performance ❤

[@EarlyThunder]

T shirt is 🔥🔥🔥🔥. You plan on getting or reviewing the Ranger1?

[@Jun_fer05]

Great job!

[@shayp3kicks395]

Your Kobe 11 Tinkers look amazing! For the Algo💪🏾

[@Nando1348]

Live the videos man keep em up. Maybe a Jordan 3 J Balvin Rio. ❤

[@PhucHoang-hx1vi]

Puma step their game up fr

[@JoshuaC923]

Pretty cool shoe and colour, you know it kinda reminds me of Anta. Good to see non Nike products being reviewed. Knowing the date at least gives me time to enjoy my time with my loved ones instead of being paranoid of when it will happen. Question, I'm a Adidas fan and sometimes i wish Adidas has cool shoes with history like Nike, what other brand you wish had shoes that rivaled Jordans in branding?

[@parkerb8516]

Do some more Weartesters Unlaced Podcast please!!! At least once a month!

I miss it

[@kj_1487]

Long time lurker here! Gotta ask, what are your thoughts on the Converse All Star BB Trilliant CX? Thanks!

[@uspatriotstigmacher134]

Nice. These look promising. I haven't bought Puma in a while. I'm with you on not knowing cause or date... just me live 💯

[@franzjoseff3175]

Very nice vid. All the things that you need and none of the bs. Mrs. wing did Alanis Morisette while Mr. Wing lowkey Rage Against the Machine and I can't unsee it. Lol

[@Gaigex23]

I’m doing the algorithmic things because Chris said to and this channel starts my mornings ❤

[@schizotypeseraph]

Can't wait for that EQLZ (not sure if I remembered that right) review! Date of death for sure lol

[@ldgaulding24]

Hey Nightwing do you think Nike will ever retro the Nike Ndstrukt Worm (Dennis Rodman's sig shoe from 96)?

[@ChrisbeFoSerious]

I LOVED the Clyde All-Pros. Currently using the Harden 8s which are also fantastic. Should I get the Stewie 3s or All-Pro Nitro?

[@JulioMarston]

great shoe, I'm looking forward for a performance review

[@manicmike3952]

Puma basketball shoes have been really decent in the past ten years now. Thanks for the vid.

[@wongjunjie874]

For the win with love from Malaysia

[@BobbyObado]

The Stewie 3's look really good. Upper details are awesome. This is a good 'level up' for Puma basketball.

[@affc68]

These look awesome, might cop.

[@akbarberlian]

clyde all pro that Chris mentioned in the start of video is very breathable

[@MigLifeCrisis23]

Shoe looks nice. Curious to hear the performance review if you get to it. As for QOD, I think I’d rather know when I die so I can live it to my best and not waste time. Also, so I can make videos for my kids teaching them different things for them I would have wanted to show them as they grow up.

[@wad3heat]

I grow up with Kobe's shoes. I fell in love with the 6 and 8 one sooo good the zoom insert was incredible nowdays, I 've found a shoes that have the same skills like zion 3 but it's very tiny plantar. another problem it's too soft the outer sole that is in contact with the basketball court.

[@DRock406]

The Kobe 11's are my sleeper best Kobe, best when broken in. So the comparison is dope! Hope to try these on and see more colorways.

[@rambo_ontherun3661]

You had me at mix kyrie and a kobe together 👌🏾

[@nicocaranto8492]

Shirt game is always 🔥

[@IsraelElkington-kt4ur]

From the title, I thought this was gonna be a Sabrina 2 review. I’m looking forward to that one!

[@geraldlopez1412]

I'm playing with the all pro nitro right now. Looking forward to try this🙂🇵🇭🇨🇦

[@solarcentipede1749]

Really hope the traction works. Unfortunately I only have excess to dusty courts.

[@willbrantley4267]

Definitely taking the date of death! Question of the day: Do you prefer a great defensive game with lots of hustle plays, guys getting on the floor after loose balls, and a lower score or a great offensive game where shots are dropping, guys are getting to the rim, and it's fast paced/high scoring?

[@Bliu2th]

It was fun seeing prison ball the first 2 games of the Nuggets Wolves series but there is a limit where I think its okay to let them play but playing defense shouldn't be like blocking the d line in football lol

[@ReallifeGfly]

I thought the Stewie 2's were trash at first because of the traction, but oddly enough over the time it got better and I find them very comfortable now. Took a few months though. Might give these a try

[@Kowsan824]

Question of the day: Would you rather be studio head going forward with which studio franchise? ( DC, Marvel, Spider-Man Sony ) and why? Need a John Campea reasoning 😊

[@tinariki821]

Always 🔥

[@coakersme]

Keep it up!

[@jodimorgan624]

Chris do the top 10 most comfortable Air Jordans, Puma , Rebooks and Adidas. Please

[@CraftDPham]

i loveeeeeee my Stewie 1's. skipped the 2 because it was just a 1.5. these right here look AMAZING! as someone that loved the drop in insoles, these look promising. the one thing i wish they had was an outrigger. but thats a personal preference. Puma has been killing it lately. personally i would pick knowing my death date. if i know i only have a week left, i would live it upppppppp

[@JSROMER]

All of the growth lol best show review channel on youtube

[@platanito027]

Hi Chris, speaking of SPO, would you please review their newest sneaker?

[@TylanXO]

So I’m a size 9 but I got my Clyde all pro in a 9.5 and they are fantastic. Should I get a 9 in these or do I go with the 9.5?

[@stevenshorten6184]

Another expert review.

[@grockamicr5897]

Thank you

[@lukebasham2220]

These look fire🔥🔥🔥

[@dwharton8983]

Yes! I support variety I'm so tired of Nike oversaturating things, more brands please 👍

[@ridocf]

Love you nightwing, im a long time viewer when u kept changing your brand’s name. Been a while since i watched a video of yours but i enjoy listening to you and your knowledge of shoes EDIT: I also still have your pureboost cookie n cream i bought from you 😎

[@rauldingle]

algorithm. I'm gonna need a pair of these! I'm thinking you can slap the Serious Player drop ins in them as well? I'd rather not know my expiration date. I already got stress in my life.

[@noheauxsdrew]

I wanted to get the Stewie 2 last year but couldn’t justify it, I’m playing more hoop now so I might have to grab these

[@mylestaylor6822]

For the algorithm! Yall gonna review the EQLZ 247?

[@FerDeath]

I don't know how did it happen but since last year I have been buying lot of Puma stuff, they are on the right path for sure.

[@NtokozoHndrxxNgcobo]

Please do a review of the Vans Hylane

[@LAdams-sb1hf]

They look like futsal shoes which is a nice change... Can't wait for the blue green colorways

[@nahmanimgood.3194]

How much were these stress tested? Last Puma’s i got a year ago absolutely fell apart when played in.
