Reebok ES22 Review

[@MrSarge823]

More Reebok shoes please!! I love seeing you do Reebok videos, thank you for this one. Great as always!!

[@qhorton6743]

Yes

[@shoenation2037]

Fr more Reebok please

[@dwharton8983]

Takes me back to the mid 90's man I wish I had the ability to get all the kicks I wanted like I can now

[@sheldevsim]

Big facts bro

[@the_beevsknees]

I love that despite reebok sending over a pair, you still give the viewers a true and honest review of the product and what's inside/outside of the shoe. Not just pretending there's nothing that could be better I love the aesthetic of the shoe but it being a trainer, I don't think I'd pick it up.

[@ShooterMG88]

What’s rebook?

[@cxshxnly7]

​@@ShooterMG88the brand of the shoe

[@rubytech]

I definitely was amongst the kids who couldn’t afford these back in the day, there’s some consolation being an adult and amongst them is the ability to acquire the things you couldn’t buy back then. Dope shoe and colorway, and as always insightful with your details 5:55 . Keep the nostalgia coming Chris 🙏🏾👑🎬

[@TheMadTitanM5]

My older sister bought me these back in 1997 when I was in middle school, but I had the black and white ones. Nostalgia coming in hot!

[@shivaz2435]

The last retro from around 2012-13 was comfortable,I still have them in this color way from back then

[@ramirogarcia4172]

I had both color ways. Love the look & feel of them. Bulky as hell. But I loved them. I'm Big time COWBOYS & REEBOK fan. So this was a match made in heaven. Thank for the review.

[@russellgray1917]

Dope video, I remember having these and the Instapump Paydirt. They were great shoes back in the day. I remember when they got retroed, they also released a pair in a red colorway. Nice to see Reebok continue to go into the closet and pull out stuff from the past, just wish that these came with the clear soles that the originals had. Thanks for another entertaining video from Weartesters!

[@blutonka2220]

I love them. I'm a little biased though because I'm a Cowboys fan and of course love Emmitt. I had the originals and I still have the 2012 retro ones. They are one of the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned. I get why some people might not like the look because of the width but, like I said before, they are extremely comfortable. I'm a little disappointed that they aren't going to have true hexalite so, maybe these aren't going to be as comfortable but, I'm buying them anyway.

[@damascusentertainment7112]

Been following you for about a year now and just recently went back to your old stuff like 10 years ago ...You really do know your stuff and have love for kicks...The whole experience what it's like to cop a fresh pair back in the day...I'm 40, but I keep my ear to the ground...So thankful to hear talk about other stuff besides Jordan 1's...I like what TECH goes into the shoes

[@VitorOliveiraInc]

I love the Reebok reviews. I just got my first two pairs of questions, one in the nuggets blue mid and the other in the oatmeal lows. I love how they look and feel. Thanks for your awesome reviews and please keep doing the reeboks! There are definitely lots of us out here who appreciate them !

[@lamargettens2370]

I need them ESmiths fasho don’t care if it’s not hyped I’m hyped

[@rechoopslegend9833]

And that's all that matters

[@danz4318]

No way, they did it! Reebok, shut up and take my money! Love this pair!

[@danielthomas2895]

I still have a pair from 2012 deadstocked. That colorway, which is dubbed Cowboys is a must have for me. Great video

[@Drew.Whitcomb]

Glad they brought these back. In my mind it's the breakout turf shoe that really helped solidify that as a category.

[@Colorwayz1984]

Bro you are so on time!!! I loved these shoes in middle school when I couldn’t get Jordan’s

[@1yeezy]

I love your channel bro… All the kicks I had growing up you end up showcasing. It gives me sooo much nostalgia ❤️🫡🫡🫡

[@salmonteleone3520]

I was in seventh grade when these came out. One of my classmates had a pair of the black/white ones and I was so jealous. I had to admire pairs from afar back then because my family didn't have money for me to get cool kicks. I always remembered this pair. Even if I wouldn't wear them now, I hope to see them out in the wild.

[@hubbardjones5433]

I had a pair of these when they released back in the 90s. I have been wanting another pair ever since.

[@paolo.]

Speaking of ES’s shoes, I remember I had his white Rush IIs back in the day-those felt awesome on foot.

[@tonythomas2622]

These came out around the same time the jordan taxi 12's! I had both, the all black ones!

[@JuhstynS]

I had a pair in 7th grade in 2012 !!! They were awesome to me!!!

[@TwoTimesPrime]

Chris, Another OG Non Hype Beast shoe that probably won’t get much attention and that’s Great for those who want them ☝🏽 I was working at a local retail store in 2011 when the Dallas Cowboys and Arizona Cardinal colorway’s dropped. When they were marked down I was able to pick up the Cardinal’s Colorway…Still have Em, Still rock Em! Appreciate Y’all 🙏🏾 Keep the Banger’s Coming 👌🏾 8:31

[@joecool9739]

That was early 2012

[@Simeautomatic100]

*These retroed in 2013 & these are built like a TANK!! Used to wear these when I went walking all of the time. Shoes just felt apart last year :( I know for sure the price will drop tremendously. Will cop them then for sure! Great video*

[@ez_mike8638]

If you had to guess, how low? Thanks!

[@Simeautomatic100]

@@ez_mike8638 *My guess is btw 100-80. These SAT the last time when they first retroed. When I got them, they were like 80.*

[@WhathehadasSole]

Said the same about these, described them the same way. 😂. They're prize fighter beaters when retired out rotation. Need a Army Green and a khaki colorway with gum bottom. If not a custom @mache275. Tank22's

[@albedat]

Been waiting so long for this to come back! Thanks for the review 🤙🏽

[@richardpye749]

I'll be keeping an eye out for these when they inevitably hit the discounts. Is there a reason that Reebok don't produce the real Hexalite anymore? Licensing or something? Having worn proper Hexalite back in the 90's, I want that feeling back.

[@Brandon-r5h4b]

There are on discount at finish line right now. ✅️

[@therealakmal]

Yup. I agree. It's a turf version of Reebok Question.

[@jst5hoes394]

My grandma bout me these joints for Xmas 97! I lost my shit when I opened the box! Definitely grabbing these to feel like a kid again fa sho

[@marcusgreenwood9804]

Love that shoe I gotta have em for sure those classic reeboks are so dope

[@eoretaspace]

the legendary design ive only seen thru photos. the chances of getting the shaq preacher getting retro is as slim as a slim shaq so this is probably gonna be my go to

[@alexisguzman3950]

Awesome you brong up Eastbay magazine that brings back so many memories

[@by_run]

Great to see these come back. Awesome review as always. 🔥🔥🔥

[@jamescobb2559]

Glad they released them but 180 come on man, I'll wait a few months and they'll hit the outlets 🔥🔥 video as always

[@MaxMilly_85]

Just picked these up for $75 love it

[@cscloud150]

I'm glad Reebok brought these back. Retailing at $180 is just too high for these kicks even for it being the signature shoe of a HOFer. $130 would be more justifiable and I do wish they would bring back the ones with the clear bottom. Now if they created a DMX 10 version and include Pump tech I would definitely pay $180-$200! 😎

[@ez_mike8638]

These are dope 💎definitly grabbing a pair. Thanks for the honest review 🫡

[@Zo-Killa]

Those were one of my faves as a shorty... those n the Fila Rainmaker, the Stackhouse 1 n the Grant Hill 1 thru 3

[@djjackson4592]

As a Giants fan, it was hard for me to buy the signature shoe of the star running back of our most hated NFC rival. But, I bought a few of Emmitt Smith’s signature shoes back in the day. I loved the Reebok Pump Paydirt so I bought the original ES-22s and they were great. They were comfortable and super durable. The shoe held up with regular use until 2012, when they became my shoes for doing yard work. I bought the first retro back in 2015 to replace my originals. They look great but are not remotely similar in comfort as the originals.

[@itzdasix]

I just picked a pair of shaq pumps on ithe magic colorway and a pair of question pumps i love them i picked them up thanks to uour reviews

[@arerays]

1 of my favorite shoe way back 1997.. memories❤

[@eastbayboi925]

Glad I jumped on them at the release. My size 14 already sold out.

[@bryantphale]

Last time I seen was about 2013-14 ish I don't remember but I remember that they did go to clearance like you said.

[@engelmann82]

YES!! Mine are on THE way!! The Sample tongue would have been sick!! 😀 ….add-on: after trying them on I had to go half a size up, they are wide but short. Hope that helps! 🙂

[@bundatmoto7144]

ive been watching wear testers is like forever. though im not playin bball anymore.. i enjoy watchin' you guys.(cris)🤘❤️

[@matthiassventoest6800]

the old Emmitt Smith joints.., I remember almost picking them up during the OG release.., at sports authority. I passed, but regretted it.

[@sinsear2404]

Love this shoe, very comfortable. I’ll wait for them to hit outlets.

[@yep87]

I NEED THOSE 🔥. Had a pair in the first grade. I remember getting them from Hibbets

[@alphagames8737]

Love this shoes retros are the best

[@pfvision]

Didn't knew about these but they look dope, especially seeing that they are super close to the og

[@itzdasix]

BRO THOSE ARE FKN FIRE

[@juanantonio5319]

"Recreate the 12s" Been saying that one since the 2000's.

[@SimpleAsBDCs]

Great video always bringing hidden Gems back to the light…

[@TheDwalkitout]

My cousin had these when I was much younger. These so fire

[@edwin6035]

Crazy 8 is back too! Good old days

[@pmoneygetter]

Man these are so hard man. I definitely want a pair of these.

[@AtomskNandaba]

yessssss !!!! I missed the last run, so excited to finally get another shot at grabbing a pair for retail!!!! ✨✨✨✨

[@dongoodman8398]

Loved those

[@knutritter461]

And I got an original wearable vintage pair in this colorway with real ULTRA-HEXALITE! 😉😇 Actually this used to be a turf shoe.... maybe it could have been used on outside courts.

[@wongwilliam5427]

i love the hexalite cushioning.........but they don't do it anymore......so sad......

[@lucioalonso4547]

Even though I'm not digging these bricks, its always cool to see old school items. Appreciate the review guys.

[@Warmwinterz]

I remember i had some emmits with the strap (reebok preseason’s”…I.also got the black air missions the same day. Back to school was lit in 4th grade 😂

[@joecool9739]

Its funny how you said the Yeezy Basketball reminds you of the Reebok ES22 Because the triangular silhouette of the Yeezy Basketball always reminded me of the Reebok Kamikaze 2 And the Kamikaze 2 is obviously a re-interpretation of the triangular Jordan 7 silhouette, but with crazier patterns

[@SeanWentz]

Had the originals ❤

[@marcus2022]

why can't they just produce honeycomb hexalite unit???

[@mangotar0]

Those look amazing 😮

[@phoenixmg]

I still have my 2012 retros. They're still wearable. I got the club blue and the black ones for $100 new😎

[@novakruss510]

Just got these

[@Barbitas79]

Bieeeennn!!!!!! Al fin es22!!!

[@briannama8760]

I take these over the questios👊🏿

[@hoco27]

Wow! I had those pair of shoes!!!

[@aaronr7389]

Absolute 🔥

[@jaysonjackson7916]

These joints hard 🔥🔥🔥

[@_illustrated.by_]

I saw pictures of these, they looked like they had the real hexalite or looked a little bigger than the iversons. Really wanna try the tech, wonder why they don’t bring it back. These remind me of the Nike air max nomos from back in the day

[@saijiang5759]

One of those 90’s Reebok hot shoes

[@Plvcky]

Those are sick AF!

[@BootlegCablePodcast]

I'm waiting on the Herman Moore's

[@rustysmittyful]

Your shirt is so DOPE.

[@howardside90]

I'll rock these....FIRE!!!

[@anthonytortiz]

Are used to have the black and white ones back in the day 💯💯

[@AlbertGomez-e7i]

I would rock those are fly

[@lavoyjackson4585]

That blue material makes it look super cheap. If they’d do a diff colorway, I’d def pick these up

[@xaviereyadan4819]

May I suggest “Hexalike”?

[@Dirtymane1]

I need the Tracy McGrady Adidas T-Mac 4 & the Scottie Pippen Nike Air Swift! Talk to somebody for me sir LoL

[@WhathehadasSole]

These are tanks. Have multiple pairs from the last release. Weird fact: on the Coolish Gray cway, it has the clear sole part. Don't know why🤷🏿‍♂️ These should get the Question treatment. Quality materials, like full leather would be great for these.

[@celicaksg6640]

I always love reissues of old masterpieces, but I don't like the way Reebok simply omits their original tech features. I know it's difficult but I want the hexalite again!

[@Destroyer-Grizzly-BIH]

I remember drawing a picture of these back in grade school.

[@JohnRolandCruise]

You did recently a review on And1 Rise; how about And1 Chosen 1? Got both recently, they are awesome.

[@SayFoolLonzoNSG247]

🥶🥶🥶

[@tagjr9744]

I remember the sole being clear?

[@ryandecs24]

How Come you don't have bok the Blast

[@TheChadMultiverse]

Why don't they have real Hexilite anymore? I had a pair of hexilite rebok pumps way back in the day and they were so comfortable, kind of reminds me of the boost squishy-ness of today. Kind of. But still, maybe you can explain that a little more - or maybe you did and I just missed it ;)

[@xantobin]

The only draw back is that it's $180. $120 to $140 is appropriate. Other than that these are still dope

[@antoniosmith1814]

But Jordan's are worth $200 ?

[@xantobin]

@@antoniosmith1814 Yes because of branding, longevity, and demand. Simple economics.

[@kozykev]

Nice to see these come back, just a bit too bulky for me

[@shawngatsby2906]

I’ve been saying for years to bring this back… I’m finally gone get me a pair!!!

[@eastbayboi925]

Copping these

[@unchained81]

Hello Chris and Jodi, I have a question. Hopefully you can help me out. Years ago, I purchased my first Aid Jordans not checking what model they were and I no longer have them but I wished I had kept them. None if your videos mention them and all I have is a picture of me wearing them. Can you help me identify them? I doubt but I hope they're still available somewhere. 😕

[@Based_Proletariat]

Hopefully they release the Florida Gators colorway.

[@roberttrotter2814]

They should drop the praseasons again

[@ffblegend]

I still want them...I skipped when they were like 60 on FNL...they haven't dropped past 130 that I can find. I love them, but my wife also dislikes them.

[@gruss512]

Just waiting for the Black and white color way 😏
