Nike BOOK 1 Detailed Look & Review!

[@mikekelly4542]

This shoe is gonna age really well, i like the versatility of it and the colorways have matched that theme so far of being able to wear them in a lot of different settings.

[@grahamcarmichael6567]

Nope

[@yeshuarc]

Nike and DB did a good job creating a hoop shoe that could be worn casually. I think Nike has themselves a future classic with this one that will inspire companies to create a casual looking hoop shoes. Great review 🔥

[@deejaay]

I have to disagree. If I want a casual shoe, I would like to be a shoe that's casual. So that I get all of my tech catered to casual fit, comfort and performance. If I want a hooping shoe, I would like to be a hoopin shoe that has all the tech catered to hooping, fit, comfort and performance. Meshing the two together, I feel like there's going to be some sacrifice somewhere.

[@Jayolebabe]

A modern shoe with an old school vibes plus casual looking. All good for me.😊

[@ic3y11]

I like that he compares the book 1s to the AF1 when talking about looks of the shoe.

[@jsondao]

YO! I was able to purchased both pairs for retail. I've tried the Mirage V1 on the basketball court. The traction is phenomenal on the clean court while the collar of the ankle gives a lot of support in the ankle area! I went true to size since these shoes will be broken in over time as I play. I would say go half size up for casual wear since they fit snug at initial first wear. They feel more of a midtop basketball shoe instead of a low top shoe. I would say they remind me of a KD15 and a Kobe 5 with more padding. This shoe is the first time I've gone TTS since all the new Nike basketball shoes, I normally wear half a size up. Plus the last time I went TTS was the Kobe 6 Metallic Silver, those Kobes weren't as narrow compare to the Protros. I know the Book 1 have mixed opinions but they are comfortable and innovative in their own special way! Thanks for the review!

[@bryansandiego3844]

Definetly i'll cop this one no brainer! Thanks for good review!

[@jshoua3142]

perfect basketball shoes for me. I don't hoop hoop like seriously, never really tried in team practice. never played a serious game in a real court. I'm not ass for someone who doesn't play real basketball. I play in slides on my uneven concrete backyard. Definitely will be using the books in gym.

[@signaturesneakers267]

Awesome I was waiting on this review with you ❤

The Nike Book 1 Is Inspired By The Air Jordan 1 Nike Air Force 1 And The Nike Blazer

[@micd9256]

6’2 pg/sg. Somehow, the Book is an incredible shoe on court. I’m genuinely surprised at how excellent it is. For me, right now, it’s the best basketball shoe available.

[@supapowies]

Would i ball in it ? No. Casually? Absolutely, I'm sold

[@diegoroot4680]

they are better than any kyrie shoe in the past 4 years.

[@bryantartus]

the book 1 is nicer then then Air Force 1. I just got these and think $140 is fair for the quality of these Book 1. they are incredibly well made and beautiful! fair price for quality.

[@Lon612]

The question is will this be in Nike by you? If nike is smart they would

[@rastahopie9663]

all good for me, casual and hoops at the same time.

[@Hondas2k10]

Shoes are nice to me! I can wear casually to work as well.

[@aidanlyons25]

I mainly watch these videos not for the performance of the shoes but as shoes for casual fits

[@potatoworkshopgames4618]

I’m waiting for mine to get delivered. Love d book

[@datharo5]

I wear my hoop shoes casually. 😅 If they're comfy for casual they're gonna go on my feet. I wore the Jordan 38 fundamentals casually to work and wore it with a purple Jordan hoodie and jeans.

[@masa82chx]

The TPU wall/cage is only on the lateral side, not on the medial side, that's why it's softer 😉

[@SimpleAsBDCs]

Great video keep up the good work AF1 are decently comfortable to me I prefer AF1 comfort over AJ1 looks are better on AJ1 though and 8 times out of 10 I wear basketball shoes as work shoes im on my feet a lot and moving around basketball shoes are great for that…

[@MarylandPark-vm9wo]

Loved the D Book 1

[@federicocavallara5574]

Seems like an upgraded Kobe AD mid

[@chookie9789]

I think they priced it $140 not because of the tech in the shoe , I think its because of the materials .. they more premium than other shoes imo

Wouldn't hoop in these but look like a casual option

[@WtfReal]

Had to cop the oar colorway for over retail. But I like it a lot so 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@Popongkee]

For sure majority of the people that are trashing this shoe haven't tried it on a real basketball game. 😂 Better than Ja 1's for sure and on par, if not probably better than the GTs. Fit is awesome especially for those with wide feet.

[@Apollo-Computers]

I'm glad you say that. I'm waiting on mine to be delivered.

Can u do some performance review?😂

[@Filipino_Josh]

Great review. Question though, are these better than AE1?

[@gizmo5385]

No

[@jhunt876]

It depends on what your preference is. The book 1's are very comfortable and have great cushion. They conform to your feet a bit better in my opinion and had pretty decent ankle support for a low top shoe. The ae 1's are fairly comfortable and is very breathable, you can literally feel the air flowing through the shoes keeping your feet nice and cool. The ae also have better ankle support.

[@chancegocrazy]

Just need some better colorways

[@wyvernheartdio9757]

I go with my usual size of Lebrons, they fit great.

[@phillipparedes6444]

Honestly... I see so many people rocking Kyrie (Nike), Dames, PGs, Currys and KDs casually... I don't mind it. It gives different flavor or style for who ever wants to rock it. 🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️

[@Dipset415]

[@jonasanderson9413]

[@stefanvasilev9318]

Am I the only one that finds these uppers so weird... Doesn't that make all the hi-tech carbon, TPU and such counters, straps and outriggers kinda unnecessary? Since a basic, vintage-looking, retro leather upper performs just as well? I find that strange hah

[@prof21]

No, leather upper alone does not perform just as well.

[@MunchOnDeezNutz]

$140 for a basketball shoe is actually a good price regardless if it's a first shoe or not.

[@polong99]

Then Nike already succeed in making u feel comfortable getting rob by corporation. 😂

Yeah, you made the right choice

[@Jolz0]

@@deadeyedan1521 yeah it's just that i could have gotten a cheaper basketball shoe like the witness 8 or luka 2's instead of buying an expensive shoe like the lebron 20's. Next time i buy basketball shoes i'll make sure to get a cheaper one.
