It's JUST A SLIDE! adidas Adilette 22 Slide Desert Sand + Magic Lime/Desert Sand! OK Comfort...

[@hersoleheat5425]

Grabbed a pair on JD today in the magic lime/desert sand cw. I’ll see how I feel about them when they arrive, but really liked this cw.

[@TalksWithTJ]

Congrats on the pickup

[@vitorzacchia]

Hello, I wear size 7, which size would you think is ideal to buy? My foot is not wide. thank you

[@TalksWithTJ]

I said they run big so probably size down

[@vitorzacchia]

@@TalksWithTJ Size 6 fit perfectly, thank you!

[@udntknomeXX]

Thank u! I was really tryn to get y folks were so uptight in regards to the adilette 22. Slides have been around for forever. Picked these up a couple of weeks ago & I'm fine with them. I do own Yzy slides but jus not that into them. I wear my Adidas Bounce slices more than anything after retiring the Adidas Superstar slides. My niece says the 22 looks like a log 😂.

[@TalksWithTJ]

I can see the log comparison 🤣

[@quietkidchris]

I tried to hit on the app and couldn’t, they were readily available just walking into JD so I got em. I chose the swirl mainly because the mono color ways of even the Yeezys never did it for me especially for the resell price rather just get another foam runner. They definitely fit big so I suggest size down.

[@TalksWithTJ]

Facts, they fit really big

[@wavestogood22]

I personally like them more then the yeezy slide. they have more character to them. the yeezy slide still looks like a prison shower slide.

[@TalksWithTJ]

Respect that!

[@Mister_Phafanapolis]

Yeezy Slides look like some $5 jobbies you’d find in a discount bin at Dollar Tree or 5 Below

[@aminurrah1076]

No 🧢

[@rawsanity27]

When I first saw the Adilette Slides I didn’t think bout Yeezy slides at all. IMO they really don’t look that similar. And they don’t feel the same either.

[@TalksWithTJ]

They don't feel anything alike, more arch support and more firm foam in the adilette.

[@muhammadshafieq3498]

My TTS is US9 (27cm). Narrow feet What size do you recommend for Adilette 22 ? Should i go US8 (26.5cm) or US9 (27.5cm) ? Since Adilette22 does not have a half size.

[@TalksWithTJ]

Don't own them so I'd watch a review of people wearing them to help

[@aminurrah1076]

Real deal colours 🥶

[@TalksWithTJ]

🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@jackies.7037]

I like the design, and I definitely want a pair in the mixed/swirled color way. I just need a good replacement for my crocs that I wear around the house. 😂

[@TalksWithTJ]

Great summer option and the mix is a nice colorway.

[@keithwarren2226]

Very nice video TJ big time…

[@Mister_Phafanapolis]

Why _is_ “comfort” the Uber alles for sneaker heads? Bio mechanically, a soft, squishy shoe with no support is actually not good for your feet, gait, balance

[@TalksWithTJ]

Everyone's foot is different and having a shoe on that is uncomfortable makes zero sense. If you're in the gym lifting legs in terms of squats or deadlifts, yes shoes aren't optimal because you want direct contact with the floor to have the tripod force when lifting. I don't think runners run in uncomfortable sneakers do they? No, the advanced tech in them is stable and cushioned. New Balance doesn't bottom out, it's also stable and cushioned.

[@Mister_Phafanapolis]

@@TalksWithTJ No, disagree that running shoes are “comfortable” or that nature designed the human body to have a two inch wedge of _Nike Air Zoom X React_ under foot. I’m confident that a firm shoe with a wide toe box is the better shoe design that the narrow, squishy, soft, nebulous soles the sNeAkEr cOmMuNiTy is obsessed with.

[@TalksWithTJ]

Whatever works for your feet, wear that. Whatever someone else seeks out for their feet, good for them, and everyone is content 🤙🏽

[@thecryingdad3839]

Well played Adidas. One thing you need more now is hype.

[@TalksWithTJ]

I think they have it honestly, these sell out.

[@zombl337og]

i would get a pair if they made a size 14.5/15

[@TalksWithTJ]

Sized out

[@zombl337og]

@@TalksWithTJ yea adidas is sizest (besides yeezy at least)

[@joshy08_31]

You should’ve did an on foot🙄

[@TalksWithTJ]

For a shoe that wasn't my size whatsoever? Nope, wasn't necessary. There are a lot of on foots you can see on other channels

[@DumbMonsta]

It doesn’t make sense Kanye getting mad at companies making fake yzy slides or something similar to yzy slides But at the same time keep the yzy slide the hardest foam to buy in the world Like bro make it more accesible I know adidas is also in the mix but yeah

[@TalksWithTJ]

Well adidas owns the designs so not really a matter of stealing. And they are accessible, they just sell out fast no matter how many pairs are dropped.

[@DumbMonsta]

@@TalksWithTJ Correct me if im wrong but wasn’t a time a Yeezy was restock in a large quantity to a point that they were sitting in stores?

[@TalksWithTJ]

Yeezys aren't even allowed to be on shelves in retail stores past release weekend for most drops. They are more widely available and some models hit where others don't but Ye Day is always a big event.

[@DumbMonsta]

@@TalksWithTJ Ok I feel you

[@JayMuggah88]

I find it ironic cause Adidas has literally made bargain brand versions of their hyped materials i.e. Yeezy for a while. I remember the tubular boost were made to be bargain brand yeezy v1s, these just got hype cause Kanye been complaining about them. I would cop these, but I got two pairs of Yeezys slides and can honestly live without these. No lie tho TJ wouldn't be shocked if Adidas wrote him a bigger check for hyping these Nordstrom slides up.

[@TalksWithTJ]

Yeezy slides are much more comfortable than these but with everything that transpired we'll see how things go.

[@JayMuggah88]

@@TalksWithTJ Post yeezy Adidas is going to be an interesting transition. I don't think they'll be able to maintain the same amount of hype and clientele w/o Kanye...but I def don't think he should be bought back anytime soon.

[@Angie_Onaleta]

This is a good looking slide 👌🏿 I can't do Kanye sooo...but my only question is, do these fart? 😅 I remember you saying the Kanye ones fart. 😂😅

[@TalksWithTJ]

Ummm I don't think so and I wear socks with all my Ye slides now

[@kylepiche5643]

I had to grab both lol

[@TalksWithTJ]

🤛🏽🤛🏽

[@bryan6158]

as long they're not uncomfortable then it's cop worthy. if comfort were the end of all things then no one would buy jordans. to me, these adilettes look interesting, unlike the yeezy slides

[@TalksWithTJ]

They have character with the texture and design. They are comfortable, just not as comfortable as some Adidas slides or the Yeezy slide. And facts Jordan's are NOT the most comfortable for most retros.

[@vertigo700]

Omg just get a Hoka Hopara and call it a day.

[@TalksWithTJ]

Yeah no thank you respectfully, would absolutely not wear

[@vertigo700]

The comfort is out this world. I understand the need for aesthetic.

[@TalksWithTJ]

Yeah it's a no every day of the year on those.

[@vertigo700]

What would be your go-to accessible slide of all time?

[@TalksWithTJ]

Can't say I have one of all time. As an athlete I wore a number of them. If they were comfortable and black/white I probably wore them from Nike or Adidas.
