I don't see why it's so bad to wear the off white tag? I feel like that's the point of getting the off white shoe because it makes it completely different than any other shoe out. I mean at the end of the day it's your preference to wear it or not so I don't think it's a con if adds a little bit of flair.
Virgil himself wore his pairs with the zip-tie on. The zip-tie Is such a big part of the design, so I understand why people wear them as they were ment to. Big up for your nice content tho :)
RAS Kroman Agree 100%, I wear the ziptie on mine because its keeps that "brand new" deadstock feel to em. And I ain't gonna lie, it also draws more attention to em also lol
Virgil himself talked abt the zip tie, u can either cut it off or keep it there, just up to u. i put my pairs on with the zip tie, i think it has a raw and factory look on it.
Con: top of tongue will get yellow as you use it more. Swoosh will get creased. Because of the material the writing is a little faded. Pro: they’re dopeeeeeee
loved them, the only reason i was able to get the off white vapormax was because nike "specially reserved" a pair for me to buy off of SNKRS. I think it was because i had bought a pair of vapormaxes off of snkrs back in like april, it was interesting.
I use to work for a department in nike Beaverton that did all the air bubbles that are made for all the shoes on this planet I remember when we started making the vapormax good times
I love this silhouette vapormax , best one ever .. I’ve been buying every color way I really liked ever since sometimes two pair of the same after I wore one out
Yooo kudos to you for giving that vapormax for retail. On the Beluga 2.0 release, I was lucky enough to get two pairs with the intention of reselling one and keeping the other but instead I Size swapped and gave the guy who helped me with an extra raffle a pair making it his first ever yeezy. And I’m glad I gave it to him.
I have given out so many sneakers over the years either as gifts for Christmas or birthday or just used some shoes a few times, and blessed a friend.. god has given me a passion for shoes. I have been obsessed since 91 as I just turned 40 this year totally struck out on the Jordan 4 reimagined that just came out, that hurt lol I guess I will be getting on old StockX now ha .. But this is one of my all-time favorites I really want to get this shoe someday .. although I do pay resale (obviously) I don’t like to spend much more than a couple hundred over retail but these I probably will end up spending around 1000 when I save up to get them and that’s not even enough. I’m just gonna have to hope I get a good deal. lol sometimes if you hold out you will come across it for something worth paying, I can’t spend 1500 or 2000 on a vapor max when I have so much other cool stuff and bills at the same time lol
What kind of pants would you recommend with this style of shoe ? tapered ? Skinny ? Straight legged? I liked the pant ankle you had in this video, the way it looked with this shoe is smooth
Just to reply, i remebmer copping a pair of the sbb 2.0 for a footlocker employee who became a friend eventually and he cant get a hands on it, when footaction had a restock in the city had to call him and asked if he wants. just gave it to him for retail too
Louis McGhee still doesn’t make sense to Rock them with the tag... that’s like saying the creator that made the Golden Gate Bridge jumped off of it why would it not make sense for us to jump off of it
Damn for retail!!! Thats pretty awesome Hes. I 100% respect that. I gift my homie for retail all the time. Hooked him up with the white undefeated AM97s and about to hook him up with Travis Scott AF1s. Gotta show people who actually passionate about sneakers some love.
When i was younger the airmax unit was the coolest thing. Like the bigger the air unit the better now they have one where it's all visible air I think they look good. Anyone else like the look of them?
Haha for real tho. I don’t like general prestos, and Vapormax but own the Offwhite promo. Nothing to do with them being hyped, they’re just fire to me and with the design details added
I like how he says it’s not like an authentication tag when it literally is. Then he says save your ankles and take the tag off which is going against what he said all through the video, being that they are ‘too similar’ to the original
I myself wouldn't mind a saturation with the 2018 release because it'll do 2 things 1, it'll kill the resell market and that'll make me happy since I've been a collector since the 90's and with the way things are in today's sneaker market with bots and resellers buying just to jack up the price out of range of those who buy kicks for the love, on top making it almost impossible to get a pair. And 2, I'll be able to cop a pair. I have taken so many L's on kicks I really wanted only to check ebay minutes later and see 20 sellers selling the shoe I wanted for double the retail price. So I'm praying to the sneaker gods that the 2018 "OFF WHITE" Vapor Max's Are released in numbers so that everyone who wants a pair can get a pair. (I apologize for the venting).
pro- its the off white vapormax con- its the off white vapormax so you gotta make sure you dont get hypebeast jizz on them, use (insert product here) to avoid being in that sticky situation
That gift a shoe thing footlocker is running, me and my gf went there to look at some shoes. I ended up getting the black & gum lbj15’s, she got a pair of nmd’s and we ended up buying another pair of nmd’s and putting them in the gift a shoe box
Won a raffle for the 2018 off white Vapormax from SneakersNStuff.... until my bank declined it because SNS are based in Sweden and they thought it was a fraudulent charge.
TheLaneDownUnder damn that must suck bro I bank with chase and for me it’s the opposite someone could by crack on the moon and they’ll let the charge go
I don't see why it's so bad to wear the off white tag? I feel like that's the point of getting the off white shoe because it makes it completely different than any other shoe out. I mean at the end of the day it's your preference to wear it or not so I don't think it's a con if adds a little bit of flair.
i get that, i just personally would cut my ankle on the tag, that thing is hard AS! but u are right each they own!
Hes Kicks I appreciate the response and your opinion Hes!
Anonnymouse Hacker so how many other shoes have you seen with a red zip tie? Right. Stfu
"rock OFF WHITE w no price tags" - lil uzi
kobe bryant it’s just corny imo the same thing as people wearing a handbag on Jordan’s
Virgil himself wore his pairs with the zip-tie on. The zip-tie Is such a big part of the design, so I understand why people wear them as they were ment to. Big up for your nice content tho :)
RAS Kroman that’s fair :)
RAS Kroman Agree 100%, I wear the ziptie on mine because its keeps that "brand new" deadstock feel to em. And I ain't gonna lie, it also draws more attention to em also lol
Agreed, I wont be removing mine, everybody has their preference but its kinda like a signature of the shoe
Virgil himself talked abt the zip tie, u can either cut it off or keep it there, just up to u. i put my pairs on with the zip tie, i think it has a raw and factory look on it.
I have these and I wear them tag on same with the air max 90 and presto
0:00 - 0:04 typical hype beast stereotypes
Zebra_ Zavage yup
The all black vapourmax is 💥💥💥
Con: top of tongue will get yellow as you use it more. Swoosh will get creased. Because of the material the writing is a little faded.
Pro: they’re dopeeeeeee
its a nice touch that the text is faded...
Will the text rub off over time/wear?
No, if you take care of them they should be okay. Or if you wear them every day and wear them in harsh weather yeah. But thats with every shoe
Its dum to wear an expensive shoe everyday
even dumber if you wear it rarely..why buy if not enjoy?
$250 retail, $400-$700 on ebay.
Facts
1700 now
there's a thing called reselling
Sadly my size 11.5 for these go for 1650-1800.. these are my grails
@@angelsdusts yeah reselling for a dumb high price is definitely smart.
Am I the only person who liked the VaporMax when it came out in March
Hunter Bull nope, I loved em
Hunter Bull I bought them before this shoe
loved them, the only reason i was able to get the off white vapormax was because nike "specially reserved" a pair for me to buy off of SNKRS. I think it was because i had bought a pair of vapormaxes off of snkrs back in like april, it was interesting.
No 🤨
Hunter Bull naw man. I like them too. I like the black ones and the navy blue ones. They're 🔥🔥🔥
I use to work for a department in nike Beaverton that did all the air bubbles that are made for all the shoes on this planet I remember when we started making the vapormax good times
They still squeek on marble floors.
Adrian Maria the ogs don't squeak
you have to rough up the sole, because it's a running shoe not a walk around time shit
ewwww
gucci smoothie hence the collaboration with an iconic running brand such as off white.
Adrian Maria AA
"On the medial side" love the anatomy terminology, hess!
Yesssss this is what I was looking for. Finally a good video on these vapor maxs
Yo, you're content is wonderful, and very informative. Keep killing it man.
thanks man!
Love your great attitude and rewarding the sneaker community with selling to people at retail rather than jabbing them with $$$.
I love this silhouette vapormax , best one ever .. I’ve been buying every color way I really liked ever since sometimes two pair of the same after I wore one out
They should have the name of the Chinese factory where they're made, instead of Beaverton Oregon
Mr Persianality oregon is where the "vapor air" is created and produced
Thats where Nike headquarters are, not where the shoes are made
@@mrpersianality6363 Nike shoes are made in Vietnam tho????
Jam - CSGO and GD nah these are made in China
Lmfao
I agree leave the tag in the box or make it a novelty item and hang it from your rearview or put it on a key chain kinda thing.
The tag is iconic
Years later, I still really want these!!!
Yooo kudos to you for giving that vapormax for retail. On the Beluga 2.0 release, I was lucky enough to get two pairs with the intention of reselling one and keeping the other but instead I Size swapped and gave the guy who helped me with an extra raffle a pair making it his first ever yeezy. And I’m glad I gave it to him.
Genesis Apostol nice man! It’s good to help others out when you can!
These are the best off white sneakers from the collection hands down!
I have given out so many sneakers over the years either as gifts for Christmas or birthday or just used some shoes a few times, and blessed a friend.. god has given me a passion for shoes. I have been obsessed since 91 as I just turned 40 this year totally struck out on the Jordan 4 reimagined that just came out, that hurt lol I guess I will be getting on old StockX now ha ..

The zip tie looks horrible on these but on some of the others like the 90/97 it’s like icing on the cake. Perfect!
Best pair in the ten imo
Payton Ford I'd say tge jordan 1s these r still fire tho
These are ugly.
easily
These new B rolls are next level - respect Hes
NotQuiteDeadStock thanks! Really fun to try and create!
What kind of pants would you recommend with this style of shoe ? tapered ? Skinny ? Straight legged? I liked the pant ankle you had in this video, the way it looked with this shoe is smooth
Just to reply, i remebmer copping a pair of the sbb 2.0 for a footlocker employee who became a friend eventually and he cant get a hands on it, when footaction had a restock in the city had to call him and asked if he wants. just gave it to him for retail too
One of my fav shoes I wear in my rotation
Virgil wears his own shoes with the tag. So if the guy who designed it wears the tag why tell people it makes no sense to wear the tag? 🤦🏾♂️😂
Louis McGhee still doesn’t make sense to Rock them with the tag... that’s like saying the creator that made the Golden Gate Bridge jumped off of it why would it not make sense for us to jump off of it
DNA leo terrible comparison. it’s what makes them unique
but it doesn't and ur a styleless wannabe hypebeast twat of a kid if u do or think it looks good
@@hwburner1524 no ur so wrong look at my other comment u dumbass
I like the blazers a lot! That colorway is awesome. They have a vintage patina to them.
Mark Lagares like em too!
Gave a friend of mine DB5's for retail. Because friends don't charge friends resell.
Brad Nolan What a nice guy
What a dumb fuck
i want to befriend you my friend
The only one being real and not jumping on hype. Good review my dude
Damn for retail!!! Thats pretty awesome Hes. I 100% respect that. I gift my homie for retail all the time. Hooked him up with the white undefeated AM97s and about to hook him up with Travis Scott AF1s. Gotta show people who actually passionate about sneakers some love.
Did the the vapormax come with a hang tag
some people like putting the tag on, some dont. dont say its a bad idea tho its just preference
Hey Hes Kicks, can you make a video of '1 year after wearing vapormax'? Thanks bro! Keep up the good work!
Sir can you make a video of "3 years" experience wearing these shoes?
Yea that’ part‼️‼️💯
When i was younger the airmax unit was the coolest thing. Like the bigger the air unit the better now they have one where it's all visible air I think they look good. Anyone else like the look of them?
Wow the intro sums up my thoughts on the vapormax
What does FK stand for
Haha for real tho. I don’t like general prestos, and Vapormax but own the Offwhite promo. Nothing to do with them being hyped, they’re just fire to me and with the design details added
i beat these tf up, yall got any sole swap suggestion on these ? 😭 😭 😭 i popped my left shoe air bubble
I like how he says it’s not like an authentication tag when it literally is. Then he says save your ankles and take the tag off which is going against what he said all through the video, being that they are ‘too similar’ to the original
I like the limited quantity. I really wanted the Blazers but I stuck out, but it does make it more fun to try to get the grail
12:02 did you just say "Supreme air max"? What do you mean? Do you mean that nike release the version of Supreme x vapormax?
I've been a huge fan of Vapormaxs ever sinced they released but these are fire asf 3rd fav of "the ten"
Damn Hess hit off the “nobody ever wins” SNKRS app?!
Off white has done a colab with every sneaker company
Intro is so true man
Carolina Srt4 funny to see but if it takes a hype sneaker to turn others onto a model then so be it lol
Totally agree with you on the blazers, VERY slept on. But man those vapormaxes are 🔥!!!! Great review once again Hes
They Are Fuegooo! Gs💯🔥😤
I got lucky and copped these. So good
Why do you hate Nike so much. You sound so mad at then and criticize everything and if adidas made this you would be in love with them
Bruh what
martin firth he’s speaking his mind if he like or doesn’t like Nike it’s his opinion
You have not seen his collection have you
I don’t own any off white, but if I did, I would rock the tag
vapor 2019 look the best, off-white is basically regular sneakers with expensive kitchen sponge
Keeping the off-white tag on them isn’t a “bad idea” that’s the point! They’re off-white it’s part of the brand/design
Thanks for the links, very informative !
Wish i could've copped a pair!
HunterLawAbbott dm me on IG: @angabooi
How did u lace yours
The vapormax plus is so fire
I think it’s ridiculous to say that Nike took a risk with “The Ten.” People would buy anything Virgil put out.
I just wanna know are these comfy for running?
OhMyBooda yes they are i have a pair and they are comfortable to run in your foot sinks in.
god, running on 1500$ pair sneakers lol
I h8 that the vapormax squeak crazy bad when walking. Not sold on them ATM, I’ll rock my TN Airs till they fix the issue!
I wish they would’ve did more of the style vapor max with the large tongue
Best in the collection
the 97s only came with the white ropes, black ropes, and the vintage white flat laces jsyk :)
Just because it's off white
Love the shade of black
Can they crease?
I myself wouldn't mind a saturation with the 2018 release because it'll do 2 things 1, it'll kill the resell market and that'll make me happy since I've been a collector since the 90's and with the way things are in today's sneaker market with bots and resellers buying just to jack up the price out of range of those who buy kicks for the love, on top making it almost impossible to get a pair.

So I'm praying to the sneaker gods that the 2018 "OFF WHITE" Vapor Max's Are released in numbers so that everyone who wants a pair can get a pair. (I apologize for the venting).
I don’t really like Nike’s but I gotta admit these are 🔥
I need these!
Copped these and the Prestos
How the hell you lace these babies so fire bro?
I'm not a fan of the Off-white collab, but I do like the silhouette.
How many sneakers do you own in total?
Shoe of the year for me next to the yeezy breds which I’ve got a pair of
eooow bit far there. u clearly know fucking nothing about sneakers
Yo people be sleeping on these. IMO it's the 3rd best in the set.
Harry li nobody sleeps on these. They were pretty hyped up
800 dollar resale is not slept on
these the best in the set
Harry li B. Z!.xz
Hi Hes,
How did you lace this shoe? I've been trying to do the loose look on them and so far no luck.
Thanks
pro- its the off white vapormax
con- its the off white vapormax so you gotta make sure you dont get hypebeast jizz on them, use (insert product here) to avoid being in that sticky situation
The vapormax are cool, but I really like the blazers. The blazers are more versatile
So basically it’s like overpriced rice honda?
Jordy Angkawidjaja like a body kit on a Porsche
Jordy Angka no it’s like having a GTR and buying the liberty walk kit
How do you tie the laces like that?!
Makes lots of sense to leave the tag.
U a good dude!!
Much RESPECT!!
Sold my friend my first ever pair of kd 4 (gold medal) which is my fav Silhouette. For retail $95, great condition
hi im getting off white chicago can u tell me a pro and a con about them?
First 5 Seconds Sums Up Everything Lmao
lol
Is the lettering supposed to fade away over time
Please review the hyperdunks
How did you lace those?
omg this my absolute dream shoe would lovee to own a pair
Wait... When did you get the Blazers?
king_ryan_james A month ago. He gave her friend some Zebra Yeezys and she gave him those.
That gift a shoe thing footlocker is running, me and my gf went there to look at some shoes. I ended up getting the black & gum lbj15’s, she got a pair of nmd’s and we ended up buying another pair of nmd’s and putting them in the gift a shoe box
I just watched this nike air off-white vapormax video and i got a adidas ad whahaha
lolol
Are they available in UK England
Whats good my guy?
Won a raffle for the 2018 off white Vapormax from SneakersNStuff.... until my bank declined it because SNS are based in Sweden and they thought it was a fraudulent charge.
TheLaneDownUnder damn that must suck bro I bank with chase and for me it’s the opposite someone could by crack on the moon and they’ll let the charge go
I personally hate it when they print text on the sides of shoes. Other than that, the shoe is very nice
Blazers r 100% best shoe in the collab
Better than yeezy?
Top 5 or 10 adidas ultraboosts of all time. Like if you agree!
My quality 1:1 original price 48$/ pair
