The Truth: Do Nike Vapormax really pop?

[@achaerna.6662]

Could I use them to sue Nike when I inevitably roll my ankle so badly I'm permanently injured by these ridiculous shoes?

Nike acg goadome boots please

[@AshAhms]

It's so natural with your style of these reviews but I really noticed how well the video/graphics editor is doing their job, always giving me a chuckle here and there. Simple but so effective. Put the team on camera some time!

[@stauker.1960]

The little editing details really make the video stand out

[@kentonli7]

I agree, the ant in the last video was hilarious hahahah

[@_JD_1979]

I love the shoe. I'm extremely flat footed and the vapourmax is the best running shoe I have, they are most durable and they strengthen my arch. I own Nike's latest alphafly, but the vapour max beats it for durability and equals it in stability for my flat feet.

[@AlexA-wm5qr]

Do nike shox next

[@juanogando1901]

I had a pair of the first vapormax. They changed the bottom because people felt like the separate air units felt weird underfoot and it did. So this 2021 version has the straight like from rear to forefoot. That gives a nice natural transition when walking.

[@thethiccdonut5257]

Ye, they aren't most comfy shoe of all time but they are still up there. If anyone can find them on sale, they are definitely worth the pick up. I personally prefer the Plus versions cuz the upper suits the outlandish appearance of the sole a lot better imo.

Do they pop easily? Just bought em don't want em to pop the first month from everyday use

[@jasonneverkovec2889]

I am 6'2" 280lbs and I find fapormax to be really comfortable. I think with my size I squish them enough as I walk that I like how they feel. My wife is 5'3" 150lbs and she absolutely hates them. I do find that the vapormax hybrids are much more comfortable than the normal ones too.

[@RetroKid]

I like how he bags on Nike and exposes them for all the ways that they get around providing quality materials...but at the same time make you still want to own certain models if you're a collector or consider yourself a sneaker historian.

[@tigoat2]

Have you ever tried filling the popped chambers with some spray foam? Might be kinda cool to see if they could be made usable again after a puncture. Love this channel. Never knew how much I’d like knowing about shoe construction! keep up the good work👍🏻👍🏻

[@MaxMax-th7uz]

I filled my Vapor max with window sealant after they popped !

[@jeremysensenig3990]

I own a pair of these and think they are unique and look cool. That being said I will never buy another pair because of the propensity of these to roll my ankle. It is fitting that an accident attorney firm sponsored this video, because for me at least these shoes are an accident waiting to happen. Keep up the great content.

[@hambaallah-mn1em]

I've been using Vapormax to run (yes run not jog) for a year now, and I can tell you from my experience that I do experiencing a bit of imbalance stride here and there but never roll my ankle once. if you put enough downforce to them they will never roll to the side, and boy oh boy they really provide you with some cushioning. the only downside is that I've popped 2 of these, and the outsole didn't last that long especially on firm road with many gravel here and there.

[@MichellePocket]

I’m glad I’m not the only one who had an ankle roll experience with these lol. I thought it was just that I put on weight.. only happened the first few days though, I’m happy with them overall now

[@jonathand827]

If it was intentional, that’s hilarious and legendary 😅

[@Bdigital9482]

They are for sure ankle rollers

Air max 97s or TNs next please...I've commented that on the other 3 vids in the air max series

[@joshuaayala3477]

Another awesome review. I was looking forward to these please please please do the Nike air Foamposit one.

[@stauker.1960]

You should go over what red Wing does with their inserts. I'm of the opinion that some of their boots should not be sold without their custom inserts.

[@matt_yuan]

a rare 10/10 cut centering score!!

[@smashalbum]

Graphics/editing on these videos is getting insane. Love to see it

[@brianeharmonjr]

Had the first gen Vapormax and loved them for casual use (I'm not a runner). Very comfortable upper and cushioning. The only thing I didn't like about them was that they squeak like hell on smooth surfaces (linoleum, smooth concrete, hardwood). The design of the outsole makes it so that, outside of the rubber pads, the bottom of the air bubble squeaks against smooth surfaces. I even tried taking some sandpaper to these areas, but didn't help. Still a great shoe.

[@1takeroddy]

Mane🤣🤣🤣every step

[@marcelinosalgado1295]

As for the rolling ankle theory: I’ve owned the Vapormax Evo, it is more supportive than the flyknit and I was still able to roll my ankle more than a few times. Only by running a short distance for fun. Would not recommend for any athletic activity. For sure the most comfortable in my honest opinion however

[@trealin4730]

The sole on the model your testing is the vapormax 2.0 technology and different from the original vapormax sole released in 2017

[@wompa70]

It’s baffling why they think relying on a factory set air bladder is a good idea. Just imagine the difference in pressure between a hot summer mountain trail run and a cold winter beach run.

[@GEES44DC]

No one is running in these.

[@bri1085]

Air Max hasn't been a running shoe for a long time

[@hanoman78]

5:53 watch a lot of on feet reviews of these shoes, and they seemed to me a bit unstable on the sides especially if you are heavy on the outer side of your foot. Lo and behold, this video showed my concerns 🙏🏻

[@jonathankulesa]

“Street Cleats”… AKA, the good ol “Click Clacks”… 😂 It’s also wild to know that it’s not one continuous air bubble on the Vapormax like Nike states…

[@cjk5115]

It's funny: I hate Nike's products (too narrow and woefully overpriced) and I hate them even more as a company, but I did have a pair of the 95s back in the day and really liked them, which is why I've watched this series. I guess I've continued to watch because you've helped validate my hate, so thanks for that because you could not pay me $210 to wear these. Another great video, by the way.

[@jogurtterminator2035]

I would love to see an Air Max 270 and 720 review, i wore the 270 for some time and for me it's the most comfortable sneaker i've ever worn, but i heard some people dislike them.

[@summytsoi]

looking forward to reviewing Air Max 720. I had a pair and the air units are both poped after 1 year. It is not wearable anymore.

[@StoicDivinity]

My first Vapormax popped about 10 months into em. I seriously thought they would've popped sooner, but my 720s popped before the Vapormax. Knowing that they pop, I have, and will continue to gladly buy a fresh pair of Vapormax. They may no be rugged, but the aesthetic of all white VMs in the summer can't be beat.

[@DMorgan77]

Great job as always Rose Anvil team.

[@veridico84]

I had a pair of vapourmax 1s in white. Honestly one of the best pair of shoes I've worn. Seriously comfortable, they weren't an everyday shoe for me, so they didn't wear out fast.

[@nBasedAce]

I would like to see you completely fill the vapormax with water, no air bubbles, and see how it feels to wear them with water instead of air.

[@lakisnkl7338]

i have the 2023 vapormax it feels different yes but the hard parts of the sole is very protective yes im careful where i step buy i think its a great shoe looks like a soccer shoe and since im a fan i bought it just for the case not 200 plus cheeper of course much cheaper the upper is very good too its a special shoe for sure need to be carefull if you buy them

[@kirbyfan3000]

Im curious how you do the new 2023 one. When all of these ones were on sale.. i was gonna buy them until i saw the reveal for rhe 2023 ones

[@cobrajma]

The 2017-19 Vapormax don't have any foam. I have 34 pairs of them, and absolutely love them. The '21+ with redesigned air sole are awful. Only have 3 pairs of them, just trying to Give them a chance. They are incredibly hard underfoot by comparison. Never ever the instability of the originals as everyone complained about. And I'm 6'4 250lbs with a size 15 foot. Grab an original and test it.

[@PixelSlayer8]

I would like to see you cut and review the Air Max 97. IMO the best looking air max ever.

i recently popped mine and i am still kinda sad,they are really nice shoes and they fit me well.I got even sadder when i found out that Nike has a return policy that basically says ,if you own a pair of Nike shoes with air soles or air bubbles you are eligible for a full refund,all you need is the receipt and guess what,i lost the receipt...

There is a SE vapormax with a zoom strobel and is very comfortable for WALKING around, but a bit unstable to actually run in them.

[@RyTrapp0]

I'm just about done with the big name athletic shoes - but, not gonna lie, they still have me with the knitted uppers, really love those, very comfortable. At least, when they get a minimalist mid/outsole anyway. Probably pick up some Nike Free Run '18s eventually, I've actually had decent luck with their Frees. I remember getting Nike air bubbles and shox as a kid thinking "yea, high tech running shoes!", until I finally stopped giving them chances and accepted that they aren't real running shoes lol.

[@G_F1]

The Free RN 2018 is a great shoe. Great for all around exercise as it’s super stable, wide, and has a comfortable yet still quite durable upper. Highly recommend.
