the same way Jordan brings back “retro’s” I feel every skate shoe company should mimic. There’s an unlimited amount of shoes I grew up skating that I wish I could skate again. I took a lot of them for granted!

[@faralteezee4474]

Except that Jordan retro's quality gets progressively worse and more expensive with each passing year. *That's a NO from me.*

[@TysonHook-22-]

@@faralteezee4474 ​ @Far Al Tee Zee Thats a common miss conception, Jordan for sure has quality issues and always has but in recent years theyve made improvements in the right direction, especially when it comes to the OG colorway retros, they're putting much more effort into quality materials and getting the small details correct... but general releases are always hit and miss and they still mess up in major ways even on the more exclusive limited releases... but to say Retros have steadily gotten worse year after year is highly inaccurate. Go watch MJO23DAN, Jumpmanbostic or WearTesters youtube channels and see some of there break down/discussions of Jordan quality over the years... MJO23DAN and Jumpmanbostic been collecting J's since before they were retro'd... MJO23DAN has some of the best OG vs. modern retro comparisons on the internet. A bunch of OG Jordans were faux leathers and durabuck though many so called "sneaker heads" like to claim OG Jordans used higher quality near premium materials... which isnt true at all, thats none-sense that mainly spawns from the message board days/pre youtube days, when people could get away with making up stories and preaching it as fact, and then it becomes hip and cool to be an OG making BS claims like "I remember the days when Jordans were still made of high quality" yet they never truly owned the OGs or there simply miss remembering otherwise theyd know there has always been major quality control issues, and cheap material usage... like the OG jumpman logos being notoriously bad to the point of arguably being worse then the china knockoffs of the mid-late 2000s... For example - MJO23DAN - Comparison - The Air Jordan 5 V Fire Red OG('90) vs 2000 vs 2020) Are the 2020 retros perfect, no of course not, were the OGs perfect def not but are the 2020s better then previous retros... yes for sure! at least Jordan Brand is giving us a real leather upper, rather then a crappy durabuck synthetic leather. kzbin.info/www/bejne/p5i9n5l8fL-IeZI

[@TysonHook-22-]

Various brands are doing that in different ways DC, and ES most notably... DC has Kalis and Stevie Williams shoe models in OG style and slim modernized versions, they also brought back the Lynx and maybe a few others in the DC line up. ES has Silos, Accel OG and slim, Omega, Evant, Quattros, Sparta, Scheme...

[@kylerjux1582]

@@faralteezee4474 Honestly shoes are getting more expensive because of inflation, skateboarding is one of the only industries where everything has pretty much stayed the same price for the last 30 years.

[@roygnade2604]

amazing comment! I LOVE THE FEEL OF OG DUNKS SB'S BEST SKATE SHOE EVER took them for granted at $120 each now there hundreds and even thousands

[@robthys]

Damn I really wish I could get ahold of one of these. Such a piece of skate history in the hands of all these hypebeast resellers.. such a shame

[@mitchio83]

I think symbolic is the word they were trying to find for those shoes.

[@atamagashock]

Funny thing is, I actually love the way the look. Obviously the story behind the shoe is huge, but I legitimately love them, and now 3 years later I’m finally planning on getting a pair this year

[@hiphopandstuff3526]

Very good interview! Love these colorful shoes !

[@32srt32]

Nike needs to make some plain color dunks for everyday skate use. You csn make any color in a regular dunk why not do it some plain colors for everybody.

[@gfeast4518]

They do occasionally but they still sell out instantly and are at least $200+

[@Clean_Duners]

They should be a general release version though like even if it’s all white like the Air Force ones they would be 🔥

[@atrusty9729]

Those shoes are fucking legit. I LOVE them

[@gfeast4518]

The PRod 2 was the first shoe I really remember having and skating as a kid, too bad it’s impossible to get dunks these days, would’ve really loved to get these

[@gavin7772]

Same dude the black with the gold swoosh

[@gfeast4518]

@@gavin7772 always had some fat brown es accels or Etnies too, I went back and got some of the prods I had on eBay, so sick

[@mikecrossley4231]

Chris's hair looks nice

[@mikecrossley4231]

@Mike Deosaran heard he cuts it himself maybe you can go down and get one!?

[@aaronbennett4444]

👏😂

[@32srt32]

Guy mariano, tom penny, koston and ronnie creagar some of the best street skaters ever!

[@Orich123]

i feel soooo bad when he says people got mad at him thinking he had control over the stock numbers :( im sure if he had, he would have at least produced enough for all of his fans

[@BrodaciousD]

the mexican blanket p rods are hands down the best prods ever

[@faralteezee4474]

Only if you get ones with a good color combo because, allegedly, no 2 pairs are the same. Mines look like floor mat instead of zarape, FML.

[@andrewab1209]

😂 no

[@fernandoreyes680]

Futura 1s and J Rod 2s are my favorites

[@fresh-er8427]

Koston got 3 with Nike, but don’t forget eS & lakai too! Add it up,make koston proud

[@jeremiahpatterson6232]

Dunks are almost impossible to get right now. Just got lucky on some wasted youths! I love skating dunks but can’t anymore sense I can’t get them! 😂

[@lillylopez98989]

Rod always has that ganster swag

[@jeremiahpatterson6232]

The shoe is dope! I’m sad I missed it for retail.

[@kungfuscubabape953]

Prod my fav skater

[@tresfordays9644]

Is it really 10 pro model shoes if some are just color ways of dunks? Because Leticia and Rayssa have colorways of the Verona but no one considers them as having pro model shoes

[@aym2328]

impossible to get some nike sb dunk low for many months here in France,there is some raffle in a 2 shops maybe, but you don't have a chance to win with the number of participants, even if i would have liked the "what the prod " i have absolutely not a chance to buy some (except at 500 euros with the black market or stockX)i don't understand the nike policy

[@Ianmertensflow]

THE PROD DUNK IS LIKE MY OLD FAT CAT. SO UGLY IS BEAUTIFUL.

[@jomalomal]

bro equated lil wayne to jimi hendrix 💀

[@christopherduby5330]

Zoom tre hands down was my favorite . P Rod wtf is up with the price of these where can i find a pair that is not re sold for over 200 ? Smh!

[@32srt32]

Durometer, then shape, and last size. I have to have a certain durometer and shape, but size i prefer 54mm but can use anything down to 51mm.

[@Lazershark2012]

Sucks I can’t get any Nike sb with the fat tongue

[@pimpinassassin323]

Ups drivers know what are in some of the boxes because the scanner tells them what's in it if it's expensive

[@mwboost]

Not a shoe to wear. More of a trip down memory lane like he says.

[@nostalgic_pokemon_memories]

Nice a shoe the common skater will never have..... Great job

[@Juny1]

I need a pair, they're dope!

[@ZForce151]

Very nice! I Like!

[@meme101RE]

Prod literally made the Kevin Eleven of shoes

[@matthiassauzay324]

you guys need to get suciu on the show

[@ghost_horse__6471]

These are made from all the left over material from the unsold p rod pro model shoes. Lolz. J/K

[@pow910]

Mark suciu would be really good to have on the show

[@masonbass4922]

I honestly think they are aesthetically pleasing

[@eppyz]

Never been a fan of Nike personally I can go into many details to why but only time I rode Nikes was in the '80s when the Air Jordans were on sale for $20 at Big 5... that's why I bought them...They were just cheap shoes that were halfway decent to skate in.

[@eppyz]

@ yes they are I will agree with you 100% And I can have a whole discussion on why same thing with Apple.... they aren't much better.

[@mitchio83]

I thought durometer was something about size my whole life.

[@nicktorres4064]

I wish I knew before they sold out on Nike

[@jpesicka492]

Iconic

[@stevebanning902]

janoski has two

[@Eldiablozatanas]

Anyone know why both pairs have different colors in the right toe ? Green and blue ?? The one in the wall is green and the last pair that they put on the table is blue

[@matrixtamu4433]

What shoes are behind Jeron? Anyone know?

What has happened to skateboarding.....

[@faralteezee4474]

Do you think hypebeasts would had scalped them if they were done in the PROD 1 instead of the Dunk? After ASAP Rocky brought them back, *absolutely yes!*

[@WesleyStrawther]

It’s called an “aglet”. Shout me out.

[@ItsJustRyan89]

phineas and ferb showed me the way.

[@jimbogreening3409]

Hideous

[@scientific1481]

and this is the reason I will NEVER buy, and never have owned, a Nike skate shoe.....I am just not special enough

[@andrewab1209]

Nah you just broke

[@robertsalazar5375]

Yeah I'm over Nike ..it's the same shit different color haha

Nike is synonymous with greed and filth. Shame on this half hour long commercial for some guy who sits in a Jacuzzi and smokes cigars. Proves that no man is a hero - you can have skills but zero integrity.

[@Mal00fNYC]

has to be the most laziest shoes design ever

[@flanzjones]

P Rod has the fashion sense of a foot dragger, them shoes are doing too much. J/K keep the energy up and keep skating, not so easy after 30 happens kids.

[@TheLCeezy]

ok fashion lord
