only reason you haven’t heard from people about how difficult it is to put these shoes on is because they’re still trying to put them on at this moment…
I keep hearing this 😂 do they run small ?? took an L trying to catch em in person and on SNKRS, had to cop off GOAT for below retail before shipping,this gon be my first pair since a youngin can’t wait.
@mugetsu2862 they don't run small its just the sock inliner makes it difficult to put the shoe on you need a shoe horn lol also you can't pull the shoe open wide because the elastic bands on the front prevent you from doing that
@richardnegus137 ya I got the black ones from GOAT size 12.. what's tough to get into, and needed to be wider for sure( felt like I was going go split) should I go full size bigger?
This was by far the best and a perfect review of these. I got the black and purple and don’t know why going through exactly what you went through in this video between the cursing, the sweating and aggravation of getting this sneaker on I literally just purchased the triple black ones about a half hour ago. I hope Nike sees this and really figures out a way going forward on these to resolve this issue is at least 8/10 maybe even 9/10 people have problems getting these on. And I went half a size up!
I have them and what works is cutting the top bungee off. That's what makes it difficult to put on. Believe me it'll be much easier once the top bungee is off.
I know this might sound wrong to do, but is there a way you can take an exacto knife and CUT the bootie so your foot isn't slamming on it? I remember getting a pair of NIkes from DTLR and the tongue was attached with the elastic and the employee said he cuts all his elastics with an exacto knife so the shoes are much more comfortable. I did it for that shoe and he was right.
I have four different pairs of Barkley's and even though I like the colorways, I may have to chill on buying any more until they remove the inner sock. I decided to cut the top strap because I got tired of struggling every time I wanted to rock'em and spending five minutes trying to get my foot inside. I know that cutting the strap ruined the resell value, but I don't plan on ever selling them so it is what it is.
Dope shoe. Nice review. That color ain't purple though. That looks blue to me. Which is a good thing, for me anyway. I've seen the shoe in hand. It looks pretty fresh. I'll be copping.
It funny because I have a grade school pair size 6.5 of the triple black from 2016 but they are black and very dark grey and they are waaay easier to put on than the men's pair of the black and purple...the trick is to step in use to fingers in the back as sort of a show horn and you slide right in 😂
I ordered a half size up, and I still hardly could get them on, the insert is just another hell. I returned. Hope you all enjoy! Beautiful shoes but not meant for my big wide feet
Good morning. I have the black ones and I confirm that they are very complicated to put on. The width of the collar of this sneaker is not wide enough to slide your feet in easily. It’s already a sport just to put them on 😁 But I think I'll let myself be tempted
Good review...I was hoping someone would expose how hard it is to put that shoe.... it took me an hour to put on both shoes.... and I was sweating doing it 😆. I have the brown ones when they first came out.
Ok alright I try it few times I was thinking to give up. But i must admit that will keep the ankle safe and tight. But I agree is was kind of tough. To wear it. But are comfortable. Make sure you wear it once a day.
Invest in a shoe horn, it's gonna save you a lot of hassle. It's helped me with every shoe I've ever had, it's paid for itself for the hassle-free of putting shoes on and saving me from crushing the heel counter.
I hate I had to return mines , I’m a 9 but ordered a 9.5 and still couldn’t get my feet in , and I type refused to force my foot in cause I’m recently living thru an healed Achilles rupture, an all time favorite silhouette I hate I can’t enjoy
Putting them on is actually not that difficult. That inner bootie is attached to the strap. If you pull that strap up and out it’ll keep the bootie flush with the back of the shoe so you can slide your foot in without stepping on it.
Just got these I’m 45 my first pair of these was them all blacks low cut decades ago👍🏾only thing is if you got a true retro pair them soles my crumble these new ones have a totally different sole looks like 🤦🏾♂️that’s what eventually happened to mines🤷🏾but the all blacks I had didn’t have the purple in them👍🏾
These 🔥 must cop. Got the all blacks too. By the way... Bro you doing it big, real big. Shoes, guns, games, baby, etc. Couldn't be happier to see you thriving 💯 🙏🏻
I was like I must have these shoes, then when he was trying them on & couldn't get them on gave me PTSD of owning them in 2015 😂😂😂😂😂😂..burh never againnnn..
Always wanted this shoe finally had the chance to buy only to go through the same thing that struggle putting these on is crazy…dope “looking” shoe but not comfortable in your true size and any size bigger they look stupid
The jumanjis lol this was in the original jumanji movie. When the cop was working in the shoe factory. When Allen dad sent him outside to get his ass beat 😂. He put the shoe on the belt and messed the machine up that got the cop fired from the shoe factory 😂😂💀
I mean u a sneaker heqd doing reviews n dont know to go half size up on these, uptempo , posits, pennys or any OG 90s nike basketball shoe ? Your friend ain't right .. jus cus u say hes right 😂
Old Royal is the name these are being given. ***
These them Jumanji parish sneakers 👌 good ole days
💯💯💯
This was my first Nike I got as a kid, this is a must cop for me 💯
only reason you haven’t heard from people about how difficult it is to put these shoes on is because they’re still trying to put them on at this moment…
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It was hard to put them on in 94 too but fuck it 😂
LMAOOOO son I got 4 different colorways of this shoe and it's hell trying to put them on most recently the triple black
I keep hearing this 😂 do they run small ?? took an L trying to catch em in person and on SNKRS, had to cop off GOAT for below retail before shipping,this gon be my first pair since a youngin can’t wait.
@mugetsu2862 they don't run small its just the sock inliner makes it difficult to put the shoe on you need a shoe horn lol also you can't pull the shoe open wide because the elastic bands on the front prevent you from doing that
I picked these up today. I like having something to wear besides Jordan’s all the time. Triple black on as we speak.
If u buying these to wear casually, go up a half size. If you hooping in these, your true size or bigger still works
U gotta cut the middle of the sock part
@@Cowboys_by_20middle where at
Yeah if your feet is wide. They fit perfectly once they are broken in.
@richardnegus137 ya I got the black ones from GOAT size 12.. what's tough to get into, and needed to be wider for sure( felt like I was going go split) should I go full size bigger?
@@johnclundt2496 I always go a full size up on the Barkleys
Best release of January
Been waiting for these
I literally broke a sweat trying to get in these
I just recently bought my first pair of CB94 and I’m in love
I just got mine yesterday from the ups too clean
They fire I always liked the look of them but never bought a pair because I like so much other stuff that drops around the same time
Fax 🤣💯
I cut the first 3 straps off of my triple blacks and now I can actually get them on and wear them comfortably
I feel about these how ppl used to feel about air max 95’s I gotta have em. Love the snug fit of the sneaker
best review and explanation of the shoe booty problem. nobody has explained this not even weartesters

I love the CB 94s. They’re just a little hard to get on and off. I’d suggest going up a half size.
I have them and what works is cutting the top bungee off. That's what makes it difficult to put on. Believe me it'll be much easier once the top bungee is off.
Yes I've heard the same thing
You mean the pull tab?
@@homicideh92 nah the top bungee where the laces are.
@@aydreeun24the very first bungee at the top? Interesting. Never thought of that.
@@chummyx4o1 yep exactly. I cut the top bungee and I feel like it's waaay easier to get the shoe on

I had these back in the 8th grade when these first came out
I just grabbed these last night had the black purple and orange but these way more comfortable
Go up Half a size for sure....

Can you do a video on some clothes that match with these , Nike got some weird colors and it's hard to find clothes that match some times
I miss my all black and red ones I had got in 2011
Dope shoe. Nice review. That color ain't purple though. That looks blue to me. Which is a good thing, for me anyway. I've seen the shoe in hand. It looks pretty fresh. I'll be copping.
Question I thought these were the royal blue ? What’s the difference on the varsity purple and royal blue they look the same ?
A smidge darker

That shoe that color one of the sharpest shoe I've seen

What's the name of the 2 stores you named sole play and what else?

I tried to put them on last night n almost caught a cramp in my rib so I gave up
Bought a whole Nike fit to go with these and the same! Like grown man type Charley Horse trying to get these on🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
I figured it out u gotta hold the tongue and the back tab
So go up half a size? Got it
I've never had a problem with the fit of CB '94s .. they break in real comfortably.
What’s the name of the zip pants worn in the video?
Fun fact: it’s 34 dots on the CB 94 for his number
I hate I had to return mines , I’m a 9 but ordered a 9.5 and still couldn’t get my feet in , and I type refused to force my foot in cause I’m recently living thru an healed Achilles rupture, an all time favorite silhouette I hate I can’t enjoy
Are they royal blue or purple?
those are 🔥🔥🔥 i got me a pair too
they sitting rn so i'm waiting a lil but i need me a pair fosho
Man these is tuff. I like them ones with the 34 on side of the back. CB 34
1st time hearing of Snipes.They pretty good ans legit?You ordered from them before?
These 🔥hate to say the black away joints better
I'm glad i got CB94 beautiful shoe but i do agree it's hard to put on i could break my finger try put them on. ..
👀
Putting them on is actually not that difficult. That inner bootie is attached to the strap. If you pull that strap up and out it’ll keep the bootie flush with the back of the shoe so you can slide your foot in without stepping on it.
tried that sir doesn't work as easy as you say it
7:34 its that front strap by your ankle
Tony. These are the Old Royals bro. The Varsity Purple as per your title are the black and purple ones (away)
The jumanji parish ‘94
Triple black the illest color for me then the black and purple but you need a shoe horn lol
Remember, these were in jumanji . When he went to his dads factory and the black guy was trying to show him his new shoes he “invented” lol
Some OGs should not be retroed…this is one of them, this is one of the reason I don’t mess with the blazers
Fire just gotta know what to wear with them
Just got these I’m 45 my first pair of these was them all blacks low cut decades ago👍🏾only thing is if you got a true retro pair them soles my crumble these new ones have a totally different sole looks like 🤦🏾♂️that’s what eventually happened to mines🤷🏾but the all blacks I had didn’t have the purple in them👍🏾
Finally a review that shows how these things barely fit a human foot 😂😂😂😂. Nike been needing to fix the fit on these joints
I'm a 10.5 going up will it look too big tho? Dam,got me thinking now.. 🤔 Ty🙏🏼
Yes, I'm a 11.5, and bought size 12, and look too big...go true, and they will spften after 3-4 days...
Why are they so hard to put on?
Waiting on the red and black Chicago GO up I have side 💥👟💯

Bro you doing it big, real big. Shoes, guns, games, baby, etc. Couldn't be happier to see you thriving 💯 🙏🏻
I was like I must have these shoes, then when he was trying them on & couldn't get them on gave me PTSD of owning them in 2015 😂😂😂😂😂😂..burh never againnnn..
They are Varsity Royal
I copped a shoe horn slide right in
Did the shoe horn really work for you??? Cause I got these ones and the all black ones and I feel like giving up
U gotta cut the middle part of the sock
I feel like I just bought these 3 yrs ago . Oh I did
I need at least 20min before I leave to put them on 😂
Can't put them on unfortunately, went up .5 and everything. Even a shoe horn doesn't help.
This pair and lebron 12 give me so much issues to put on 😅😅😂😂
Took me 15 minutes to get them damn shoes on they have to do better yes that was the hardest shoe ever to put on
😂😂😂😂😂 it’s a real task putting them on lol
🔥
I thought i was the only one
These are my favorite shoes but iv said since i bought them that the liner on these shoes is the worst iv ever tried to put my foot into by far
That bootie is like the Griffeys
I lose a few pounds every time I try and get these on lmao 😭😩
Always wanted this shoe finally had the chance to buy only to go through the same thing that struggle putting these on is crazy…dope “looking” shoe but not comfortable in your true size and any size bigger they look stupid
Bouha super glue the sides lol
The most challenging on foot ever lol
I actually cut the booty out and now it fits perfect and the last pair I got just with scissors it was easy
These are old royal not varsity purple not unless they changed the color to em
correction Old Royal
Name color fancied out its purple all day
Bruh u violating that bootie 💀
The jumanjis lol this was in the original jumanji movie. When the cop was working in the shoe factory. When Allen dad sent him outside to get his ass beat 😂. He put the shoe on the belt and messed the machine up that got the cop fired from the shoe factory 😂😂💀
Like Jordan 8 hard put on too
but they going to praise the Jordan 8's knowing damn well they are uncomfortable
$170 worth it for a shoe to pick up/collect? I don’t see myself ever wearing these lol
It’s work to get these joints on and off.
ID on pants in the thumbnail? Thanks
Get a shoe horn. I use it for all my shoes
I mean u a sneaker heqd doing reviews n dont know to go half size up on these, uptempo , posits, pennys or any OG 90s nike basketball shoe ? Your friend ain't right .. jus cus u say hes right 😂
The eyelet locks on the OG are black. The retros are always white for some reason. So it’s not 100% copy of the OG.
