So dope that you're reviewing this. As a long time hooper transitioning to skating (i cant run with these kids anymore lol), its cool to see a channel i love and respect cover other areas and topics of interest. Keep up the great work!

[@dmoore914]

I hoop 3x a week but i just got back into skating after 15 years so i feel where you coming from

[@rubydixon7079]

Haha I went from skating to hooping cause I was too old to keep skating

[@grandmasteraj855]

This channel always comes with deep skate shoe cuts and that’s why we subscribe.

[@wilbs5970]

I’m a hooper and I try to skate every night after hoop sessions if I can

[@yeswords1]

“Skating is the lifestyle” Best line ever man! Whatever skaters are wearing today becomes popular in a few months. Great review as always man!!

[@IDiggPattyMayonnaise]

If you look at how girls dress now it's how skaters dressed in the 90s/early 2000s. The extra baggy pants, flannels, beanie, and big shoes.

[@47buddz97]

@@IDiggPattyMayonnaise skaters have been dressing like that again the last few years too

[@Drew.Whitcomb]

Chris just casually hitting up designers. That's next level industry expert analysis. Pizza: Supreme or Pepperoni/Sausage/Mushroom, thin crust or Detroit style

[@lnvaderon]

I just happened to re-watch the Ishod 1 review yesterday. I'm glad Nike is continuing this line and I appreciate you always shedding light on skate shoes you think are dope.

[@Yplayallday]

literaly did the same yesterday lol

[@njY2K]

Best thing I like about it is how they incorporated his last name into the AIR logo, that's awesome

[@joek9549]

It has strong Air Flare vibes. The blocked lace area, the vent slits. The 90s bball reference is the barkley 180.

[@KyngKee]

You are one of the most technical and knowledgeable KZbinrs. You make shoes sound like a science and you can teach a class on it or so. TED-talk. I don’t even skate but listening to you explain the tricks and the grip needed to help it I felt like I could go do a kickflip 😂 #SHOECULTURE

[@jeremiahpatterson6232]

I love that you review so many different types of shoes. Way to go!! Thank you

[@antiflg530]

Love your review, very in depth specially with things a lot of other people don’t really talk about. I don’t skate this style of shoes, but I can def appreciate how from the height of the shoe to the heel chain unit to the way they layered the flick area, makes you feel like they actually designed it to perform best for skateboarding. Not just an over padded dunk with a sb embroidered in it. Ishod rules ❤🎉

[@SeriousMFBlack]

Was about to cop these the other day. But I couldn't find your review. Your attention to detail is what I look for when I'm in the fence about a shoe. Thank you for the work.

[@calebbjerkeset3553]

It was great to hear what the actual shoe model/inspiration was. It makes a ton of sense seeing the vents on the toebox vs the vents on the side of the tennis shoe. Great vid man!

[@Crnicelad]

My pizza answer: just visited Napoli, Italy - the birthplace of pizza. The Neapolitan style pizza is hands down my favourite style anywhere, but the ones I ate there were 10/10. Each time perfect pizza. Whole Permegiana for 7€ from order to take-away done in 5 mins (eggplant + parmesan + fresh basil topings) was not only the best, but also one of the most affordable pizzas encountered these days.

[@LeSTIV]

I was hoping you’d review these! I feel like this is what the PROD line would’ve evolved into if SB kept it going. So dope!

[@gevurah22]

wAIR Max! Cool seeing you review these. Really enjoy these on board and the general feel. Didn't get any hotspots on my foot too after some heavy sessions on them, too. Love how light they are too but it does have a chunkier look. The 1st one was also nice on board, but it was quite narrow in comparison and I ripped through my laces way faster than expected. And appreciate the history with the Air Flare colorways. Would love to see some AM98 colorways on these, but I'm sure we'll see some PRM models like the 1s. Awesome content as always!

[@teunjansen238]

I just bought a sample pair of this shoe! At an outlet. It’s without suede, green oily bubble logo, thicker outsole and some other small differences. It has tags with comments about it like measurements and designer names, pretty cool shoe.

[@whiskermon6555]

Reminds me of the Nike penny in some ways - still looks cool ❤

[@mericisler2300]

I was waiting for this one🔥

[@ScentedArsenal]

Thank you for reviewing this brother, I was quite confused also after owning the 1st model these I find would look amazing in a Concord colorway also the fact it's a bit more elevated helps a lot as the originals are way too flat for me because I have to put orthotics in my shoes!

[@thakid691]

Awesome break down , best sneaker channel by far . Skate shoes not coming with extra laces is criminal 😂

[@gimpprice]

Chris knowing the truth about skateboarding culture is 🧑‍🍳 🤌🏼💋

[@NoxiousPond]

I appreciate how even though you arent a skater you talk about all the skateboarding details.

[@by_run]

I agree that skating is the lifestyle. Same with bmx. Awesome review as always. 🔥 I only dislike the thin crust pizzas. Everything else, I’d eat. 😅

[@hostesscupcakes8130]

I just bought these for $90. They are extremely comfortable and tbh, the most comfortable SBs i own.

[@SubZero15]

Didn’t think you would review this! I’m glad you did as I have been contemplating buying these 🔥🔥🔥

[@xBYDEMONBEDRIVENx]

Crazy that's what the shoe is inspired by because that's the first shoe I thought of. Agassi had the sickest gear. Great review Chris!

[@christiancancino1839]

Honestly one of the best lines Nike has came with in the last 5 years. Totally agree once you break in the ishod1 it’s honestly the best daily shoe I hope my black/gums last forever. Got a lot of love for these tho can’t wait for mine to come in.

[@Drift-Daddy]

I have both the ishod 1 and 2. They both are probably my most favorite shoes I’ve bought in a long time. I love the 1’s but they knocked it out of the park with the 2’s (especially with that 90s colorway) They’re comfortable as hell and look great. I get compliments on the every time I wear em.

[@ajaxxx16]

I like the look of the ishod 1 more with it being a low top. I bought so many and that react. But I do love the toe down view of the 2s

[@landonramsey1580]

The Ishod ones aren't as comfortable as I wanted them to be. I like the Nyjah 2's are very comfortable. These look they would be more comfortable than the Ishod 1s. Thank you for reviewing this.

[@lacedxupxrebel]

I think the wavy upper kinda makes the ishod look like a air max 95.

[@OleMisss]

Same. It’s kinda why I’m loving this. Think I’ll be grabbing the green pair off Nike.

[@brauprx]

At first glance, I thought the inspiration was from the Air Pippen 3 sideview looks, because of the red part and the little swoosh. Those look nice but the toebox seems a little squared.

[@ekaram32]

I would say I like the second iteration better, as a bit of a wide footer skateboarder (not very good getting my bearings back as I stopped skating years ago) I really enjoy the wider last, I have the Ishod 1s and they were so tight in the toe box for me, glad I have some wiggle room in these. Anyways I’d have to agree Chris, a NY Plain slice is always a go to and almost every time I go to NYC I grab one. Keep the skate shoe reviews coming!

[@nathanieldiaz5711]

Just grabbed the All Star pair of Ishod 1s for $50 at an outlet, can't wait to grab these too

[@xote316]

I call em the Wairmax. Lol I'm glad these are getting a review. I had the first model and will be picking these up. I wish they had zoom units in the heel instead, but otherwise, I like them. I don't care for the leather material bc it looks like plastic. Otherwise, the shoe is dope.

[@claysoggyfries]

They remind me of Air Max 97s

[@guyrjr]

Chicken and bacon pizza, crispy crust, with garlic sprinkled in the dough as well 🤌🏾

[@jas1511]

I get the inspiration, but these remind me of the adi2000 silhouette.

[@MrFaknuts]

The ishod 1s are so good… can’t wait to get these

[@simonesguerra7043]

Am seeing the air pippen 3 inspiration

[@WearTesters]

At last. We finally meet the person responsible for writing all those incorrect product descriptions for Nike.

[@simonesguerra7043]

@@WearTesters 🤣🤣

[@GatesThaGillionaire]

That’s It. Almost Identical.

[@CT37BN]

Saw this a couple days ago and am quite impressed. Thought they were tennis shoes (it just had that look and feel at first glance).. until I saw the SB logo. The air unit under the insole is just so cool Off topic I hope you can get Jodi to maybe review the womens Nike Versair (the front air pod units) just intrigues me as they're placed like in the Alphafly 2 and 3 road racing sneakers.

[@soubido]

I love the first one, almost bought every colorway that came out lol Just got these last week and I will probably buy many upcoming colorways as well lol

[@draketcarder]

As a skater my whole life I will say these new ishod shoes are at my top 3 ever that I’ve skated. Looks and feel. Plus you won’t rip laces.

[@TheWeathermanJR]

I like these but damn I wish those Air Flairs would come back!

[@elementkx]

Im getting them just for the insole. Don't care if its a gimmick or not.

[@elementkx]

I always thought it was insoired by the flare and the am97.

[@gregmorris2884]

They had this Mexican restaurant in Inglewood, Ca. They had a mexican pizza 🥰😋 it had refried beans and everything like a taco!!! Oh my GOD 🎉

[@ZEPLUS7]

Fun fact. Where I’m from in Canada apparently has some of the best pizza places in the world. ( Windsor Ontario ) is my neighbouring city. I didn’t believe it until I went to Chicago back in the day did a grade 9 trip. We went to a “ famous pizza restaurant “ according to my teachers….and less to say, I didn’t like it at all. I felt like I was eating cardboard with cheese on top… I’ve since tried a few pizza places in the US. But nothing comes close to the pizza we have in my home town and neighbouring city. It’s actually crazy.

[@canesfank2]

I also got air max running vibes from these, as opposed to the Jordan 5 low vibe I got from the first version. As far as pizza goes, I’d say sausage and pepperoni with white sauce from round table. That’s my favorite chain pizza, but here in Sacramento, the best pizza is Luigi’s!!! A simple pepperoni pizza is ambrosia from the gods, but you might get your car stolen going in to get it😂 as it’s in Oak Park.

[@variandavid377]

I enjoy my Ishod 1s….but I have to use them sparingly. Used them for work and for some weird reason the forefoot flex zone on the left pinches the big toe and it hurts! Love the look of the 2s and the air flare is a classic beauty to use and inspiration. Love the 180 inspiration too. Doesn’t Nike have that Flyleather thing…or did they ditch that? Couldn’t they have used it for the leather parts of the shoe, especially since it was touted to feel like real leather? 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@TheChadMultiverse]

Fun fact (maybe I am remembering it wrong, but I swear its true) the Air Jordan 1 from back in 85 had an insole kind of like that - with the air unit. I remember taking them out to show my friends, "See, it has air cushioning". I could be wrong because no one that reviews AJ1's has ever mentioned this

[@WearTesters]

Chris has gone over the AJ1 tech in every AJ1 review. An insole like the one you describe is not featured in the AJ1 and never has been.

[@Damkohler11]

My fav pizza is always gonna be from Godfathers Pizza. Gotta get the Classic Combo if you find one of their spots, they're mainly in the Midwest. Thick crust, Pepperoni, Sausage, Mushroom and Onion...magical :)

[@Hsuperman18]

those insoles/midsole are insane!

[@wetosb]

Mannnn, i just thinking to buy this shoes and you make a review of him.

[@andrej1928]

Love your skate shoe videos!

[@jameslkru]

Oh and also I’m originally from North Dakota and sauerkraut with Canadian bacon is my jam. Don’t knock it until you try it.

[@aschlly6490]

Thin crust with a bunch of cheese is my favourite, i wish i can try the pizza i saw in Supernatural which The Death recommend to Dean when they met for the first time, that looks delicious af~

[@IzzyDaing-n6x]

The White/Blue reminded me of a barkley upon first glance. The CB4 II for some reason. I totally saw 90s basketball influence tho

[@WearTesters]

You saw it because marketing told you to see it - not because it was there. Actual inspiration was given in the video.

[@More-Sauce-Man]

Such a great design. I want nike ID for this guy so bad.

[@Tapeworm99]

This question may be stupid, do skaters dislike when non skaters wear skate sneakers with no intention to use them on a board? Growing up I always wore dcs and various other skate brands but never fully learned to skate. Would it be frowned upon to buy these for casual wear because I really dig the design on these.

[@Nickles4]

Nah. It’s lowkey nice that people outside the sport support the athletes. If you like the show then you like the shoe.

[@ChaseThornsberry]

No it really doesn't matter there are people who get all kinds of shoes that are meant for different things and never do what they're intended for. But keep in mind that skate shoes and pretty flat so if you wear them all the time it'll hurt the arch of your foot

[@Srettelswen]

You should try doing performance reviews for skate shoes. That would be dope.

[@carmendewa2449]

Picked up this shoe a couple of days ago and i love it looks and all and ive had so so many people asking me where did you get these they look awesome. So me myself im pretty rapt and am going to pick up the other two colours 😉

[@MikeRoyale9936]

I’m with Chris, Big ole NYC style cheese pizza , folded

[@davidmcdermott3415]

I just need a dark color way. I like what they have done with them

[@ThaBlockisHotPodcast]

These kinda remind of of 3’s. Great shoe and I’m looking to cop.

[@gilandsebastian1042]

Spicy pepperoni, thin crust with cheese on the inside edge pizza hut style. But if I'm really hungry I'll take a deep dish Chicago

[@neirrad]

Thanks for having eyes that remember.

[@johannervinadvincula8359]

black cat 4 have a thick tounge too

[@helphelphelphelp6145]

I’m with Chris on the pizza option lol

[@VinCode17]

I don't skate, but for casual wear, i think it's 🔥. School pizza 😂 was the best 💪

[@ralphtree03]

i like pizza with pineapple on it, i know its not popular choice and its even banned in one country to put pineapple in your pizza, but the charred sweet taste adds to the savory flavor.

[@tonyg1997]

You’re the best 💪🏽🫡

[@thedrizzle1978]

Ishod 1s felt and looked great yo me. Rock my blue & grey joints a little more than my black & grey but both look super nice! Not liking the look of the 2. Need to see the 2 in more colorways

[@shanecall4449]

When I first seen this the upper remind of the Pippen but just with a bigger swoosh

[@_illustrated.by_]

I’m not a skater but I would buy these for sure

[@GRAYMASKMAN]

Got the ones. Like the twos. Just want a different color way! Something earthy like the ones but different then my brown pair

[@IntelligenceAp]

These are Fire Bro 🔥🔥🔥✅️👀 Do they Have all Black ⚫️ These look Better than tha Book 1's what do you think . 🤔 Them Blue Joints 💙 gonna go hard wit Nike Basketball jerseys 💯👑 ... But I beat they Perform On the Skate Board Top Tier ..... they Look Hella Sturdy 💪🏻💪💪🏿

Supreme pan pizza! As a kid the cafeteria pizza with the school lunch corn

[@blazehelldorado]

When I first saw the shoe, one of the Pippens came to mind.

[@viclion93]

Pizza from Italy, specifically Rome style with Prosciutto 🤤🤤🤤

[@TseStanley23]

Chris had the NY pizza once and never looked back LOL

[@BobbyObado]

Who else apart from Chris will bother to dig to find out the real tech specs and why there's a discrepancy with the product description? This is your answer to 'Why Weartesters?'.

[@knutritter461]

The reason why they could have mixed inspiration from tennis and basketball shoes: I realized in languages like Brazilian Portuguese and maybe even in Spanish as well 'tennis' is used as a word for any sneaker.... maybe there had been a person in marketing who forgot about that.😉

[@zomgitsgabe1687]

These r 🔥🔥🔥 def gotta cop

[@RetrochinaXXI]

Noooo brooo!!!! I specifically clicked this video because I just knew you were gonna confirm that these look like the Pippen 3s 🤦🏾‍♂️

[@ulpsb]

As a 90s skater, I did not wear my skate shoes to chill or go to school. Skateboarding was not as "cool" then and not accepted. That's how alot of us got into other shoes/sneakers cuz we'd go out to parties or chill, not wear skate shoes... for me personally, I like these way more than the 1s. And I do have them. It's all preference tho. Where I am an 8.5 in sb dunks, 8.5 in these I have alot of room in length and could go down to an 8.

[@WearTesters]

Definitely not the case in the Bay Area. Skating wasn’t just popular, it was everywhere. Skate shoes were worn all day every day.

[@ulpsb]

@@WearTesters we're coasts apart 🤷

[@WearTesters]

@@ulpsb Where are you from?

[@ulpsb]

@WearTesters ny whole life(not Cleveland cuz the image). We literally had people drive by throwing shit at us. Not until thps, limp bizkit and Avril Lavene... lol.

[@WearTesters]

@@ulpsb Wow, that's insane. In our larger cities like SF skaters definitely weren't welcome on majority of the properties -- to the point where there are anti-skating blocks on anything that can possibly be used to skate on -- but I don't ever remember that type of behavior.

Ishod 1 sitting in Ross right now

It fits so weird. Really flat toe but the rest of the shoe fits normally. Also not the best aesthetically, especially when compared to the Air Max.

[@madams8632]

I heard somewhere the foam in the drop in midsole is cushlon 3.0

[@WearTesters]

Cushlon 3.0 is super soft and bouncy. This is not Cushlon 3.0 at all.

[@johancoolyeah]

Are they true to size? Zoom Blazers and Force 58 are so small that you need to go up one size.
