The Junipers are one of those sneakers that I need to see in person. Every time I see them whether it's a picture or review I have a different opinion. Sometimes you love them, sometimes you hate them and I think that's what the charm is.
I love anything Salehe, bought my first crocs because of him. Slides are dope. Got a couple pair of the "traditional" Salehe crocs. Great review! Need to get the junipers.
I do like the literide sneakers these are based on. Really comfortable, no socks required with the mostly rubber outsole, no issue with getting them wet. Has been the perfect shoe to wear when spending the week end at the beach. Pack Hacker did a pretty fair review back in the day. I would say the main downside is how the shoe will get hot with sun exposure.
I love the fact that you're still honest with your review. And I seen the other video right on time.. when you joked about the crocs ,VS salehe sneakerhead video. That's what won him over, it was hilarious
Here for the little dancey dance as usual ! (But seriously, I was genuinely happy for you hearing the story behind this box. And thanks for all the great content !)
Being a Nike/Jordan disciple myself i have to say that crocs are shit to me. But I love how you talk about these in your unique and honest fashion. Hats off amigo.
Travel shoes are underrated! Having had a wild stretch last week made me appreciate having a comfy pair of kicks. I'll definitely be looking for a pair when my Ultraboost 21s give up, so knowing that about the Junipers is handy! Mind you, if I ever find a pair of Y3 Ultraboost 21s these would have to go on the backburner haha
love the Juniper, but the problem is they're hard to actually physically put on. Like the rubber of the insole catches your sock and makes it difficult to wear socks with it in general.
I'm a sz 12 and I just got the "Taro" pair. You're right. They weigh a TON -- 1 pound, 10oz / 745g PER SHOE for a sz. 12! Since you mentioned hiking - keep in mind, (like myself) Salehe lives/spends a lot of time in LA... and it simply doesn't rain here for 9-10 months of the year lol. I think he was going for achieving breathability from a rubbery non-breathable material - while still being protective and robust enough to support vigorous activity. If you wear these hiking in LA - which he seems to do often, based on his IG feed, you're guaranteed to end up with dry, albeit quite dusty socks...because this is a mountainous, coastal desert... ecospherically speaking.
@@kameipaulo5832 yeah. They’re dope. I love the design, but I have NOT loved the previous colorways. They are HEAVY. Each weighs like a Timb boot basically -- and the rubber of the outsole may very well be exactly what Timberland uses. It's just as dense and firm - and there's a LOT of it. They were on beaspunge this morning for $30 off… which ticked me off😅😤 after paying full price just 2 weeks ago… but maybe you can still cop if you hurry. They seem comfy, but I haven’t worn them yet for more than an hour or so. They might run a tad big; but not as big as the Pollex Crocs, if you have sized yourself in those… but again, there’s also a lot of rubber and meshy padding cradling your foot inside the shoe. If you like Salehe’s design language - or design in general, I think you’ll love them. Heavy. That’s my main caveat... but even with that, the benefit of so much weight and rubber and heft at the very bottom of your body makes them extremely stable. The person who still somehow finds a way to roll an ankle in these deserves an unfortunate award lol.
@@kameipaulo5832 If the Nike Foamposite One, Crocs Pollex, and a 6 inch Timberland workboot had a kid and sold it at an outdoors store, it would be this shoe! That's the best way I'll ever describe it! 😆
@ I felt like they were maybe a tad roomy… maybe to accommodate thicker hiking socks or something. But they’re not like the Pollex clogs. Those are close to a full size over. But these - I feel like between the laces, the constrictive materials, and the soft, sticky footbed, my foot can’t slide around much, if at all.
Always a great review, humor on 👉 point ! One thing for sure, comfy, convenient, even if they gave me a B.J, I wouldn't ever have these in my house, my dogs wouldn't even cop
This is sick! Stoked for you, you are indeed hilarious! (swap out the phone case though before anymore closeup shots - looks like a re-imagined Otterbox retro XX phone case)
Yo bro love the channel keep up the good work,the W.Y.W.S air force 1's are sitting in larger sizes on the a ma maniere website 150$ plus taxes tho,are you going for em or waiting?
As a proud Filipino🇵🇭, I must inform you the Pollex clog colorway is pronounced “OoOBAY”. lol. It is named after Ube which is purple yam found in the Philippines. Its flavor is popular in Filipino desserts like ice cream and pastries and it is currently being gentrified thanks to my local Trader Joe’s food market. It’s f**king delicious, man.
Im surprised how he didnt revise the juniper before releasing, they are heavy. But my biggest complaint is they are super hot! I couldn't wear them in the summer and on a 60 degree day i still felt the heat! Love the look but very disappointed in the performance. Alot of his products are sitting on crocs website. Definitely trying to get influenced.
Yes, size down if you’re a half. I wear 10.5/11 and got a size 10 of the Taro colorway and they fit great. The website has a sizing app in it so if you’re still unsure, use that as well
Makes me think Selehe is having a hard time hyping his recent releases so he having to give em away for free, Nah, I’m just kidding bro I’m kidding, Or am I?!? 😂😂😂
Love how people say they are heavy!! They need to get to the gym and do some leg day. Juniper that I want are sitting, but I've got to wait. I can't believe they're sitting!
Adidas now this?!? Outstanding & very well deserved! 🙏🏼🤙🏼
Thanks man it’s never taken for granted
When being yourself pays off. Congratulations pimp!

These Junipers intrigue me. Also, can't wait to see what Salehe cooks up next for Puma Basketball.
Love Salehe and all he’s shoes. They’re out there but so different and original. Well deserved man!
I love anything Salehe, bought my first crocs because of him. Slides are dope. Got a couple pair of the "traditional" Salehe crocs. Great review! Need to get the junipers.
Oh, also you are the only sneaker postie i can't wait to view. Keep it up my bro
They’re worth a shout but maybe one to wait for on sale
You are the best, that's no bullshit fam, I really look forward to all yiur content
Thanks fam appreciate you
Agreed on the pollex being the perfect travel companion! Congrats bro on the pairs!

Nicely reviewed, you cover it so well! I just took delivery of the new Junipers, love them as they so different and in your face.
Being a Nike/Jordan disciple myself i have to say that crocs are shit to me. But I love how you talk about these in your unique and honest fashion. Hats off amigo.
Bro man you’re on fire this week with content jheeez 🔥
It’s cos I haven’t been playing golf 🤣🤣 so I’ve been productive 😂
A bro well deserved 🎉 the grind pays off 💯

Love the pollex. I have a pair by each door. Great for playground with the kids
love the Juniper, but the problem is they're hard to actually physically put on. Like the rubber of the insole catches your sock and makes it difficult to wear socks with it in general.
Definitely the most deserving guy to get some free kicks. Best sneaker channel out there!
Awesome bro more brands should tap in.
These vids always help me reset after work, so chill. Thanks!
I honestly rock with these bro gonna look at gettin a pair.
You really are hilarious! At the same time I myself is an enthusiast for sneakers. I am your target audience and I appreciate you bro
Show off!!
So happy for you and your success
Congrats!!! Cool of him to personally reach out.
Id cop these but I feel like he's been taking it easy on the colorways these would be insane with the right colors n pop
Congrats man! Awesome co-sign!!! I feel the Junipers are for fashion-flexing only.
😂😂 In his bag as usual subtlety hilarious and poetic 👊"respect"
Congrats! This is a very big deal, well done.
This is HUGE (the Crocs too), congrats!!!!
I’ll be rocking my echo and mellows for a minute. So comfy. Crocs ftw
Nice collab bro 🎉 🔥
Juniper… more like Fungi… those things are hideous.
Seriously though bro, you have made it!
Congrat's brother, you deserve the reconetion for your great work. Peace!
Appreciate you
Bout to move to St. Louis and run the healthcare game my guy! 😅 Great to see you get recognition!
Certified hood classic to certified hood famous
Cool you’re getting the recognition! Well deserved
Always quality content… well deserved Bro…👍🏻
Would you say the Saru fit like the Pollex? I had to go down 2 sizes from my TTS for the Pollex so I was just curious! Thanks man, love your videos!
Love them! Hate the "all over the place sizing" 😅
Much Respect from Salehe…. you are hilarious and keeps it 💯

Do you recommend the Taro colorway?
Been thinking about pullin da trigger on these for awhile but not sure yet

Str8 🔥🔥🔥..not a fan of that color way but the style is crazy
i have these in the original colour way. I use them by the pool on holiday, although they add to my luggage weight 🤣
This is sick! Stoked for you, you are indeed hilarious! (swap out the phone case though before anymore closeup shots - looks like a re-imagined Otterbox retro XX phone case)
This is awesome!! Congrats!
That’s awesome of Salehe….Well deserved.
Yo bro love the channel keep up the good work,the W.Y.W.S air force 1's are sitting in larger sizes on the a ma maniere website 150$ plus taxes tho,are you going for em or waiting?
This proves crocs are only for cool people ❤greats videos fam

That’s mean bro well done!
Great chanel, one of only couple that i still follow in sneakers sphere 👍
Crocs not so much 😅
Bro, you are hilarious. Well deserved!
4me Salehe is 🔥in my🔝 3 now
You are on fire 🔥🔥🔥
😢 Im sad because I actually purchased these Junipers and it’s been three weeks with nothing to show and no update.
How did you get a 9.5? Crocs don’t come in half sizes.
If I wear a 10.5 what size you say go?
Good job👍🏼
But let’s be honest, the pollex and those junipers are f‘in hideous 🙈
Bought and sold .. too heavy as you stated !!!!! I have tons of the pollex clogs .. but the junipers just too bulky
Deserved 👏👏
Well deserved mate!!!
Big ups. Lol you deserve it
Polarising is putting it mildly 😂😂😂 but fair play, nice to get some recognition bro
Cant wait for Ye to message you😂
I didn’t realize how heavy and big they’d be.
3:30 it's pronounced ooh-beh. It's a type of Yam and it's purple.
Thanks bro
Bro, these look like someone stepped in a pan of macaroni and cheese
Bro said “OUB” it’s OuBay
If your crocs fit big just boil them in hot water a little bit then they’ll shrink
I’d rock for sure…if I got them for free too
Crocs have yet to make a decent looking traditional shoe and these are the worst yet imo. Hopefully Stephen Smith can do something not hideous.
Im a fan
Travis Scott juz send me a pair Jumpman Jack Dark Mocha 🤞🥵🤯
what's the kiwi equivalent of crocodile Dundee? cause thats you
Do they run big?
Yes, size down if you’re a half. I wear 10.5/11 and got a size 10 of the Taro colorway and they fit great. The website has a sizing app in it so if you’re still unsure, use that as well
Congrats!bro! i told you you are in the wrong business. You should audition for SNL or something like that.. as always 👍🏻
Ushh meke bro
Crocs are ugly as hell, but my margaritaville ones are comfortable af and I am glad I have them
The juniper sneakers are hideous
Dam bro.
They look heavy.
Bro, at $0 you still paid too much 😂
😂…I actually have the Original pair, but this was still funny.
@2:54 pause
He shouldhave sent new balances
Game recognise game.
They look cool but I'm not a fan of the material on the upper.
Makes me think Selehe is having a hard time hyping his recent releases so he having to give em away for free,
Nah, I’m just kidding bro I’m kidding,
Or am I?!? 😂😂😂
🤣🤣 that thought did occur to me actually
Obviously you don't know Salehe's vibe. There's several videos online. Due diligence. ✔️
Love how people say they are heavy!! They need to get to the gym and do some leg day. Juniper that I want are sitting, but I've got to wait. I can't believe they're sitting!
No one gives af
Bro don't say his last name please 😂😂😂. Just say Salehe ✔️
Mega oxidized yellow…..you mean gum lol
Soz it’s a no from me.
Those last ones are ugly. Yuck but great content. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
socks to bed = best sleep experience , try before rejecting 😂😅😂😅🎉😅
Yesss sir just got the LeBron 22 from Nike
