Nike Air DT Max 96 2024

[@geoffreylane5606]

Nike needs to bring back the Seau's the Dennis Rodman's and the Barry Sanders and the Vicks. Also the rest of the deions.

[@shawngatsby2906]

I’d cop all

[@d.k.8565]

and Webber's

[@isaacencarnacion5514]

I loved the Vicks and the Webbers.

[@ogkush1828]

, and the Kevin Garnett

Thing to remember too about a turf shoe like this is that there was a LOT of football being played on the old school Astro-turf at that time, which was really just some green carpet with a little padding underneath it. Dallas was definitely one of the teams to use this stuff at the time. So it likely was his game shoe more often than not.

[@joegross4366]

He started wearing the Diamond Turf (1) in Atlanta, who played in the Georgia Dome which was turf, that’s really what started the line. In San Fran it was grass so you only saw the DT 2s a few times at away games. I think he only played on turf in Dallas for 2 seasons (starting w/ these DT 3s) before they switched to grass. And yes, old turf was hell. I think that’s why the Cowboys switched; players like Deion, Emmitt, etc. getting turf related injuries.

[@cedfinn11]

Jesus Christ that turf in Texas Stadium was terrible. I had a couple games there in high school and it felt just like you explained. Carpet. And it wasn't even soft carpet. It felt like Velcro

[@rflick66]

@@cedfinn11I played one game on the old turf in college. My joints hurt for like 3 days after. Don’t know how people did it week in and week out!

[@tvglasses]

That Eastbay page has so many of my holly grails on it!!! Nostalgic as hell!! Bringing back so many memories! Air Turmoils, Speed Turfs Max, and Nike Air Fly!!!

[@MARS-qm9qt]

Those were the days !!

[@wkffchameleons]

Even if you need to take a break, please don’t stop doing what you do! You are the one as it pertains to the details of a release. You call out all makers for their quality. You give props when done right. You are genuine about it and that’s why I’m a fan!

[@davidgurganus3466]

I had them in 96. They hurt my feet back then. Can only imagine today! Prime Time Bo Jackson and Ken Griffey what a run!

[@KingsinceIwasBorn]

Hands down this is the best Channel for reviewing sneakers!! Not even close. Love the content and the fun back and forth

[@cesarsoto5735]

Your the best shoe guy hands down wish I could talk about shoes for 2 hrs with u

[@retroesso]

This is my fourth time buying these!!!!

[@michaeldegaetano4497]

This was my one shoe per year in 6th grade. Was super hard to find even in kids sizes in Cleveland area.

[@Stillsuckafree63]

there on hibbet right now

[@jaybird634]

I had the black on black 1st model . Great shoe in my opinion . God bless , and ty for the review .

[@Sneaky_freek]

Love when you post the OG full page ads of the Nike lineups from back in the day...hits you right in the feels ❤

[@ChriStyle181]

I literally paused and took a screenshot of that Eastbay page. I remember seeing that page when I was a kid. Great video. I picked up these sneakers and love them.

[@bradthreats9822]

Definitely need to go half size up on these!

[@DonnaTan-si8fu]

Definitely not true to size as mentioned by Weartesters?

[@ShuskyBaluski]

@@DonnaTan-si8fuNo I saw on other reviews saying they run small and snug so no TTS especially if you have wide feet

[@chrissington1978]

Yea ..thank god I read the reviews before..I went a size up and it still squeezes the sides of my feet..smh

[@adampruitt9211]

​@@chrissington1978did you go up a full size? I went up a full size and they fit me but if I use the strap they are kinda tight in the middle I probably can go up another half a size to get the strap to fit good

[@Sega_is_all_i_cd]

Yes! I don’t even think its bad to say for safety to go a whole size up in these!

[@manny8479]

Trust me when I say that we will always support what you do because you share the passion we do and do it the RIGHT way (i.e. NO RESELL INFO BS). Anyhow, love these retros. Would be nice to have the Veers or the Zoom Turfs (Eastbay page shot was amazing flashback!). Great vid!

[@mozzie2729]

This is why I always watch every episode on this channel, the amount of in-depth history behind each shoe is fantastic! At 2:43, I see the Nike Barrage at the top right, I had no idea those came out that long ago. I picked them up (the navy colorway) back in 2016 because I thought they were nifty looking, had no idea that they were a retro until now.

[@Yeurro]

Sean Evan’s dropping in with a question is fire

[@CourtneyWilliams-ku1jv]

I wanted the first DTs in elementary school. Having sneakers with straps was drip back then.

[@mikeyramirez3648]

Been subscribed for a bit first time commenting. Just wanted to say I really enjoy your reviews and how detailed you are with everything. Probably my favorite reviewer on here tbh. Keep doing what you do bro it’s always 🔥🔥

[@WearTesters]

Thank you 😊

[@radioclash77]

Biggest differences I've noticed from the OG are that they switched to Varsity Maize instead of Metallic Gold, the air max bubble on the OG was a metallic gold to black fade instead of solid black, and the top of the OG toebox where it meets the tongue had mesh. These retros do look VERY good despite the changes.

[@bigferrents]

Speaking of bargain bins, my first pair of jordans were from the bargain bin. It was 1994 and my mom got me the Jordan 8 aqua lol

[@danieljones1784]

That same year or maybe it was 95 I got my first pair that I bought on my own with lawncutting money I made and I bought some Larry Johnson converse shoes. I bought in a bargin bin for $40.00 I was the only one in my school that had those for some reason. I loved those shoes but I grew out of them in 6 months.

[@aloxera8834]

Man I been watching your videos for years! If I’m deciding on a shoe to get…your videos are my go to!

[@TheEnglishAngle]

Man I love these, I had to get a half size down because mine was out but nonetheless they fit decent and aren’t uncomfortable. Might be my go to shoe for the rest of the year honestly

[@Bruhda1]

What a beautiful sneaker Nike will always be #1 especially when it comes to retros this Dtmax 96' is fiya but the white&black Colorado colorway gotta be my favorite one💪🏾💯🔥

[@SincerelyJ927]

Just know i appreciate you guys doing these videos...literally no other shoetuber like you guys💪

[@ClintonLeach]

I remember seeing these a lot back then but never had my size as a kid & missed the 2018 pair but finally got a pair today part of my childhood is fulfilled now just waiting on the diamond turf 1's to come back just cause i passed on them multiple times in the past

[@Real-Ez]

I get the QOTD, and I’m glad you’re not tired of the reviews, this isn’t just the hot ones, but most people do get tired of what they’re passionate about because it’s no longer a hobby, it’s a job that you do a lot My dad who works with phones all the time, now doesn’t get excited of new phones that come out for the same reason, he works with so many phones that he doesn’t care for them

[@stevenmarincas1708]

Awesome work bro glad your still doing reviews pure Quality and Honesty

[@WearTesters]

Thanks 😊

[@TaeGutta88]

Been waiting on this , my boy does the best shoe content

[@Zo-Killa]

Great video bruh! One of the best old school kicks ever. The 90's were the best era. Shot out to Eastbay! N the many pairs I circled n finally got as an adult 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾 there's alot they need to retro now! The Air Raid was the first sneaker I fell in love wit back in 92 n it's been a wrap since then!

[@518streets2]

My first time getting these can’t wait until they come in the mail 🔥🔥🔥

[@mainsourcery]

I need the cleat versions. Not only do they look good, but that strap really adds to the functionality of the cleat.

[@llahhsoj7651]

You are one of my favorite shoe people on here. Im 47 from Indiana. I had the first diamond turfs when they came out and then a weird ass colorway like in 2014.. Keep doing your thing my guy, Those are sick though.

[@steventurner3767]

Was watching this video as I was opening the shipping box with these in it. Really cool to see these in hand being a 90s kid myself. Thanks as always for a great review!

[@Boogenhagen100]

keep up the great work Chris and Mrs. wing. go with what you know. 🎉

[@cmoney7363]

Great Sneaker! CLASS OF 96 WOOP WOOP!

[@donblk.2235]

Great review, I picked up my pair Saturday at footlocker easy pick up

[@abelramirez7391]

Keep doing Vids you are one of the true Shoe reviewers on KZbin. Always feel like we get a flat out honest review and not a bunch of hype👍🏽

[@matteon1222]

MAN, that Eastbay page... I had four pairs on that page. Started with the Speed Turf Max, then got the Turmoil's (white and green), then The Barrage (white, black, green) and the DT Max in white and blue (not pictured) All bad ass shoes. Great times... great times...

[@Mr071lulu]

I was out the other day, and this chick and I just started yapping about sneakers. Some people think sneakers are frivolous, but It just one of those things that brings people together for a short while 🎻

[@marcdalmeida7970]

Without knowing the origin of this colorway and just assuming it was a random color... I think its kizmit that these match perfectly for where Prime is right now in life. We wake, we live, we type... FOR THE ALGORITHM!

[@MaddyLyons-o3c]

This color way was the first release for this shoe. It’s believed it was meant to be a neutral color way, being as the Dallas Cowboys blue / silver colors were loud for a regular everyday shoe. Deion didn’t play baseball in 1996. The red and white color way was later released when it was announced the Red’s signed him. And the blue / white color way was released to match the cowboys uniforms

[@markhimself44]

I got my marvel-ish "Since" shirt today...woo-hoo! Chris, you're the best shoe reviewer on here....so don't ever stop.

[@Sometimessoloadventures]

These, the Jordan 11-13s, and the Air Max Triax are my all time grails and I’m only missing the Air Max Triax from my collection because I finally hit on these. Can’t wait to get them in hand

[@colebougie80]

I hooped in these my freshman year. I know they weren't bball shoes, but I loved them!

[@JesusMartinez-hy8fo]

Always wanted these since I was a kid. Now finally got them! Hope they come out with the red.

[@JesusPerez-qd2ob]

This is one of the few podcasts that talks about different shoes and not the same damm jordon shoes in different colors!!!

[@gordoeastlos323]

Been waiting on this review, thank you for the upload Chris just copped my DT 96 today.

[@Ab7trAct]

Amazing QOTD! Thanks!

[@WearTesters]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@roboroflo8679]

I remember when these first came out and I was not into them. After seeing what came out after these I appreciate them way more. The ones that came out after just looked so generic to me. You could tell what these were from far away and that is something that is super dope.

[@lcbarreras]

They originally dropped in Feb during SB weekend. A friend of mine copped me a pair while he was in Vegas during the SB.

[@iamJaekwondo]

Hibbetts still got size 8 and 8.5 and 9 right now on their site ... going fast

[@terryllramsey8128]

Just picked mines up thanks for the review .🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@jonathanwhitsed2188]

My first pair of Nike's in 1996, epic!

[@ALopezTheGreat]

Real nice!! I really wish these had the speckled metallic gold air unit like the OG did. I had them in middle school in 8th grade and I remember that the Max Air unit was metallic gold in the inside. Only take away for me but nonetheless they are still a classic and dope piece any collection

[@FireSneaks83]

This was a great pair to snag! I remember when I was in the 6th grade, a friend of mine had a pair. I wanted them so bad back then and mom wasn’t paying those prices for shoes. So I had to settle for a pair of the black, adjust force’s with the white shroud 🥴

[@MrCourtneyRice]

You are necessary! Because the history gets lost with all these retro’s and reimagining’s so you keep the culture poppin! Cheers to you!

[@MarisaDEEZ]

These hard!!!

[@agentdubski7760]

1st. Great Review. My favorite Diamond Turf was the DT1 that was Black with the Gold mesh and had a dusty blue color on the inside of the tongue. I pulled them from Eastbay or JCPenney's. I didn't wear them much because I also had those White/Maroon/Black Preseason Pump Paydirt that I LOVED!!! But like you said, I did play outdoor hoops in one of my "turf" shoes. It was the Air Max Pro Streak. Wasn't great to play BBall in, but man I was into that carbon fiber forefoot strap. The white pair was the best pair. 2nd. You have a gift and all the knowledge. You've been part of my daily KZbin for a decade. I'll be sad when I can't see new vids, but just like Eastbay, I'll have old catalogs to look at. 3rd. QOTD : What is your favorite Jordan that Jordan never played in?

[@zsid3]

I hope to see you still doing reviews when you’re my age! Also - I was wearing the Balvin Medellin’s out grocery shopping with my daughter. Some guy walked up to us, said excuse me & she responded - but then he started talking to me about the shoes. 😂 And we wound up talking for around 45 minutes. I was cracking up when we left, saying that I had found my people 😂😂. (She’s not a shoe person so she was just in disbelief the whole time). 😊

[@frogtofall]

The, “back of the throat” cutaway was ON POINT! 🤣🤣🤣

[@kenstevens7855]

They've retroed these a few times. I got the white and reds some time around 2012, and then red/white and black/white in the 2017 ish time frame, I think. I'm probably off a year or two, but there was definitely two retro periods in the past 12-14 years, prior to this current one.

[@MM-x6c]

QOTD: Thank goodness you don't have to eat shoes! I really appreciate the job you do. As with any job, I'm sure there are times you're less into it just because, so thank you for persevering because I look forward to these videos every time there's a new one. These look cool. I'm sure they feel like bricks on foot, but that's true to the 90s. Doing my part: you know you're getting my comment and you got my like.

[@kungarne201]

I love these bulky kind of shoes with the retro style

[@timmyheatz12]

I've just copped these last week and honestly I'm satisfied with the purchase from elder millennial. Glad that nike and deion sanders made amends tho. Yes the air max2 94 cb and air max dt 96 are similar bc they were designed by Tracy Teague

[@victorscott7982]

I had the 4s growing up. I want those again and the SF color way.

[@mr.gorham6228]

Copped two pairs! Wear Testers the best!

[@rojinsamurai1]

Found these yesterday at Shoe Palace in San Jose…for those looking for them. My kid said “why is his face on the bottom, so you step on it all the time”😂

[@rakeemmcgee52]

I got mines from there too. I forgot about them friday and I was surprised to still see them at shoe palace online saturday

[@CHELTON77]

Had them in 96 White and Royal (Dallas Colorway) and yes they were awesome on the blacktop.

[@donaldthomas72]

Love the review and nostalgia

[@laronwhite09]

Def go up half a size in these. My true size was so SNUG

[@chrissington1978]

Yea..fo real..I went a size up and it still fits very tight on my feet..and don't wear thick socks with them neither .

[@adampruitt9211]

​​@@chrissington1978I went up a full size and they fit me but if I use the strap they fit kinda tight in the middle I probably can go up a half a size more and the strap would fit better and be more loose Griffey 1's run small to I had to get up full size in them too

[@2BDK618]

It dope that you compared them to Barkleys, word has it that the designer of the Barkleys desiged this model too

[@06VistaBlueGT1]

Had the OGs back when they originally released back in 1996. Only Diamond Turf I want is the 1 in the OG colorway when they release next year.

[@christopheralvarez3452]

I was in 6th grade 96 still remember seeing them on one of class mate I never been so jealous in my life I wanted them so bad my mom got me Reebok for Christmas I guess you don’t understand the money situation as a kid but I can’t wait to see them again this is my second pair but I am probably going to wear them like once a month or something the bottom gets yellow really fast 😢
