Agreed, but we all know a bunch of douchebags in Supreme hoodies are gonna hoarde them all and resell for $400... this community is trash a lot of the time
I work at a footlocker an often we have some customers (not all elderly but most of them) with either a disability or a dexterity problem who experience difficulty putting their sneakers on. This could be a game changer for so many of those people
I’m 48 and it’s kinda embarrassing for me to try shoes on in public to be honest. Most of the time I don’t tie the shoes I am trying on. I never tie my Jordans anyway so that no big deal but any other shoe...it can be a mess.
@Veer Pal Sad to see they're already reselling on stock x for triple the price. Wish nike can fix this so people like you can benefit from these sneakers. 🙏
same here i have disability i need firm shoes like jordan and was recommended to wear shoes like that it was so hard to get even still now im not really big fan of jordan its sometimes kinda disappointing its not like i choose to be like that and cant understand ppl who trying so hard to get them and even resell them i respect that and ofcourse tying shoes is sometimes hard so i have like the sticker ones its easier but not for everyone else out there (sorry my english sucks)
These shoes have revolutionised my life. I’m disabled, in a wheelchair and have been unable to get my own shoes on (let alone laced) for almost a year (I have a degenerative condition) and if I had to go out at any point in the day I would have to get my bottom half dressed and have one of my kids put my shoes on for me before they leave for school so you would have me sitting in bed with my shoes on at 7.30am for a 3pm appointment. I couldn’t get slippers on anymore to protect my feet around the house, essential when you can’t feel them! I now just feel so free, I don’t have to plan going out somewhere around if there would be somebody to put my shoes on. Not only are they amazing tool for independence but they also look good (I have the black with white detailing and gold on the soles), I can wear a fashionable shoe that fits fantastically and has given back some of my independence.
1. Many of those members may have disabilities or dexterity issues, or know people who do. 2. They’re essentially being used as early adopter guinea pigs to test both the product and market appetite for it. Happens in many industries.
These are a game changer for me! I have severe rheumatoid arthritis. It’s hard to tie my shoes. I do have some other flyease shoes that I love. I have the Lebron Soldier 12s that are awesome. Want to get a pair of the Jordan 1 hyper royals. I will be trying to get a pair of these probably in the black color way.
Good luck copping one man! Although I doubt you will be able to get one because they are in high demand and sell for a lot. I do hope the luck is on the side of those people that would actually need it!
Thanks for this review! As a sneakerhead with a disability (MS) I've been looking forward to this one. However, I'm with you, I'm not digging the Gen 1 styling really, and sounds like there are a few kinks to workout. I'm on the fence. I hope this is just the beginning of the tech, and they adapt it to other silhouettes.
I've just been following this shoe for my grandma. She is 95 and im trying to make her life a bit better by making sure she is comfortable. So if everything checks out, I'll definitely be getting her a pair.
It’s so great that all these famous people get to unbox these shoes! I mean that’s what disabled people want right? They just want to see popular people wear them and not be able to buy them themselves. Not to mention the teens who are disabled and their families who can’t afford these shoes because we have to pay for things that non disabled kids never have to think about like wheelchair, meds, attorneys for IEP’s, modified clothing, doctors visits, specialty cab rides to and from doctor appts. I really hope you enjoy the shoes!
@@saz1519 they’re releasing them for everyone plus I’m not taking the time to lace my shoes when I’m in a rush and even when I’m old I’ll use them for the same reason
I think this is amazing and I hope that everyone who really needs them or want to try them get to purchase them. I’m fairly young but I have Lupus and some days these would be helpful when I’m in a lot of pain and my mobility is affected.
Seems like adding React to the front and back half of the midsole could really help make this a comfort lifestyle shoe. The Flyease Gos feel like a proof of concept.
My Dad suffers from Parkinsonian Gait so getting shoes on and off him are quite difficult since he can't really articulate his feet. I think that when he's finally allowed to go outside again, he'd enjoy having something like this.
My biggest worry was how long they would last. I have had mine for a year and half. They still fit snug and the tread is still good. They are the most comfortable shoe I have owned. I work at a grocery store and on my feet 8 hours a day. I didn't realize how comfortable they are until I heard a co-worker complaining about how sore their feet are. I have an autoimmune disease called AS(Ankylosing spondylitis) basically my spine is fusing together. It was getting harder and harder to tie my shoes. This shoe really makes a difference for me. I have all white ones and they are tough to keep clean. I have watched youtube videos and they help a little. The mesh is just hard to get clean.
If they made these water proof they would be amazing for healthcare workers. With the nasty stuff that gets on our shoes it would be nice to never have to touch them taking them on or off.
Trying to get these for my grandma she has a hard time putting on her shoes hope resellers don’t try and get them so that people who really need these can have em
The actual use-case of the shoes is for it to be accessible anytime, thus you need to make sure they are fully opened when not in use. Your issue is a nitpick.
I’ve been so hyped for this shoe! I’m not disabled or anything but it just sounds good to just put on and take off you shoes without the need for hands to get involved
I really hope that Nike is going to make them more available to the public over time! Especially other colorways. I'm waiting on your long term review Seth, I want to buy this shoe for my 80 year old grandpa who is starting to have trouble putting on shoes and lacing them up
I have a chronic health condition that causes mobility issues and I really want to pick up a pair of these. Slightly tempted to let the early adopters work out the kinks first and help the price drop slightly.
As an Asian and an Industrial engineering student, these shoes are a design masterpiece. Now they just need to work on the look. I'm also excited for other brands to get in on this, so everyone can have this tech without worrying about impaired people having enough for themselves.
@@michaelmccay123 most Asian cultures frown on wearing shoes indoors, so removing shoes like this (using the same method this shoe uses) is very common.

Definitely need these. I'll probably wear them almost everyday and because I often have a lot of stress with school and stuff and am always heading somewhere these would be very quick to put on
As an above knee amputee I can't explain how happy I am to have these come in I can only get the yellow an black ones wish I could get a high tip before I got shot I only wore hightops
Really happy with this video, your best so far seth. So many have skipped over the original purpose of this shoe and FlyEase innovation, or thought that this was the first time Nike had tried something like this. Thanks for going above and beyond the required level of research, and truly informing your viewers.
Hyped on those tan mid APTHCRY socks tho. I love this idea, but definitely good to have a family of flyease products. I know people with Cerebral palsy who own flyease shoes, but this pair in particular wouldn't be very useful because they have more movement in their hands/arms than their legs. So I hope they continue to expand the flyease line for lots of use cases
Omg!!! I LOVE THESE!! I really hope they are made more readily available! I could see were this would be awesome for kids! And for myself! A mother of young kids & an infant 👶 my hands are always full!! So to be able to put a shoe on that’s not a flimsy flip flop w/out have to wake up my sleeping baby.... I just LOVe THESE!!!
I really hope they try to make these for all people and accessible to everyone. Especially people who are disabled in which these shoes were meant for. I know this video is old but still had to comment. Have a great day
I just got a pair. I was super happy to get them ordered I have mild cerebral palsy and have difficulty tying shoes with laces. Only bad thing is the Support isn’t the best and runs a bit big in my opinion
Good 411 for it being designed to assist the disabled, as I thought it was for people who just couldn't be bothered with laces and wanted different looking slip-ons.
Love the concept. But how long will that band last I mean one accidental cut will it render it? Also the part that moves looks like a magnet for lots of small stones and dirt to get in.🤔
Appreciate the info Seth. This is 100 times better than a pair of crocs or walking out in slides. No disrespect... It just provides coverage from weather and the elements. Similar to why people wear slip on vans. Can't be too nit picky... its a great design that I'm sure will improve.
i was actually mad at this shoe for a long while. i ended up with GBS back in november 2022. after PT and other treatments i needed a sneaker to easily put on and take off. me, being a sneaker head automatically looked at the fly ease line. i wanted these sneakers and could not for the life of me find a pair in my size for at max 120 usd. i was so furious, like seriously i legit need this type of sneaker and nike cant deliver? i ended up settling for another flyease but i was so frustrated that i couldnt get a pair. these were perfect but with piling up medical bills i could never justify the 100 dollar mark up.
If you keep stepping on the heel when taking off the shoes the heel tab where you step will turn black and dirty very fast. Maybe they shou,d colour the tab black so that it won’t be so obvious when it is dirty.
These are a godsend for my elderly parents. But will have to wait for some toned-down colourways. The styling + colourways available right now are abit too out there for 70yrs old.
Whens the black colourway shown dropping? I see Nike now have a black/white/gum, but not that double black shown?? (edit) I've now been wearing a pair of these Go FlyEase regular for 9 months. All day wear, long walks, running errands, chores, gardening, driving, everything. I can confirm none of Seths comments re the Living Hinge fatiguing or splitting has happened to me. The rubber band has not stretched. Nothing has collapsed. My Fly GoEase still wear like day one. They are a robust build, quite overbuilt in many ways, and so therefore quite heavy for a lifestyle sneaker. My only issue has been inside the sneaker in the heal cup - the 1000's and 1000's of times slipping the sneaker on and off has meant the fabric padding on one of the shoes has worn down, but this could just be down to the way i walk as it's only one shoe. A really good shoe very well implemented by Nike. I hope Nike make a mark 2 just with a lighter bouncier midsole.
im guessing nike are testing the market to see how fast they will sell toi hopefully match supply, since resellers will probably get these, hopefully nike is smart to go alright BOOM and just smack these out
I really hope these go towards the people who actually needed them, not just some reseller holding dozen pairs in his room lol
took the words out of my mouth

Agreed, but we all know a bunch of douchebags in Supreme hoodies are gonna hoarde them all and resell for $400... this community is trash a lot of the time

Hey Seth,
Great review as always!
Would love to see a durability test on how these hold up over time. Let's say a few weeks or months even
My biggest worry was how long they would last. I have had mine for a year and half. They still fit snug and the tread is still good. They are the most comfortable shoe I have owned. I work at a grocery store and on my feet 8 hours a day. I didn't realize how comfortable they are until I heard a co-worker complaining about how sore their feet are.

I have all white ones and they are tough to keep clean. I have watched youtube videos and they help a little. The mesh is just hard to get clean.
These are the best shoes for going through security at the airport
If they made these water proof they would be amazing for healthcare workers. With the nasty stuff that gets on our shoes it would be nice to never have to touch them taking them on or off.
Look at the Zoom Air Pulse.
you can put waterproof spray on them
As a disabled person one big problem is being able to reach your laces my left hip is messed up and I can barely reach to put my socks on
Trying to get these for my grandma she has a hard time putting on her shoes hope resellers don’t try and get them so that people who really need these can have em
I admire the creativity, I truly do.
I'm doing my senior design project where I make a shoe design. I was inspired by this shoe
What's your insta?
I'm not going to lie I would've probably lost my balance trying to put my feet in over and over for the review. You have mad skills lol
I'm looking forward to these. I'm not disabled or anything but these look like the most ideal daily shoe for kicking about the house.
The actual use-case of the shoes is for it to be accessible anytime, thus you need to make sure they are fully opened when not in use. Your issue is a nitpick.

Wow . I’ve been wanting a shoe like this . My belly gets in the way of tying my laces so I just push and force my feet in lol big belly problems !
I hope these were cuz I have cerebral palsy and these will definitely help me
Good idea, but will wait a year or two when they use React and have GTX options.
Wonderful video! The shoe is not for me but it is a step in the right direction for people with this need. Thanks!
Whens the black colourway shown dropping? I see Nike now have a black/white/gum, but not that double black shown??
(edit) I've now been wearing a pair of these Go FlyEase regular for 9 months. All day wear, long walks, running errands, chores, gardening, driving, everything. I can confirm none of Seths comments re the Living Hinge fatiguing or splitting has happened to me. The rubber band has not stretched. Nothing has collapsed. My Fly GoEase still wear like day one.
They are a robust build, quite overbuilt in many ways, and so therefore quite heavy for a lifestyle sneaker. My only issue has been inside the sneaker in the heal cup - the 1000's and 1000's of times slipping the sneaker on and off has meant the fabric padding on one of the shoes has worn down, but this could just be down to the way i walk as it's only one shoe.
A really good shoe very well implemented by Nike. I hope Nike make a mark 2 just with a lighter bouncier midsole.
Very well done video! Quick and concise and enjoyable to watch! Well made!
Like whats the point if this is a limited release ?
im guessing nike are testing the market to see how fast they will sell toi hopefully match supply, since resellers will probably get these, hopefully nike is smart to go alright BOOM and just smack these out
I'd be interested to know how long that hinge and the elastic band will last? How many on/off motions. I'm assuming Nike did the "IKEA" test.
The THAT CHAPTER music
People are all talking about people hogging these, but I think they are going to make enough for everyone and not make this a limited run
