Been watchin you for 10 years, just wanted to say thank you for sharing your knowledge. Its more appriciated than you can imagine. Best wishies from Croatia!
Right on about happiness. Great question of the day, great answer. It’s the people who reach out without you asking and check in with you, not because there’s something off or wrong, but because they just genuinely care.
Routine actually makes me happy. The fact that I can wake up, make a coffee, turn on the sprinklers, take the dog outside, and watch TH-cam videos before 8am, makes me happy.
I’ve been wearing Kobe 5’s (the original) for like 15 years. Bought 3 pairs way back in the day. Went through those and then started buying used ones on eBay for like $80-100. Just ordered some this morning, can’t wait!
Here to feed the algorithm and also let you know you just convinced me to NikeID a pair. I love the new guys, but I can always depend on Nightwing when I want to know exactly how a shoe will play. Don’t know why. We’re not the same player type at all (I’m a 6’2” 200lb slasher that can throw down pretty easily). Maybe God made our feet on the same last or something. Whatever the case, it’s been over 10years of reliable, fun, nostalgic content and I couldn’t say thank you enough.
Just started watching weartesters again after years of being out of the sneaker game.(got a pair of crazy (kb) 8’s at Ross bc of your ig post). Just wanted to say that I don’t remember you ever making full-on sponsorship promos for footwear companies before, but I’m a big fan of this SPO ad. It feels like this ad almost builds upon the video you made about Nike dropping the ball, and I’m all for calling them out. Great review as always.
These are 🔥👍🏼. I’ve been messing around via Nike by you. The options ate 👍🏼. I’ve been going through life challenges lately. Forever grateful for family/friends. Thinking positive and doing positive things makes me 🙂
It is beyond me that for as long as I’ve been watching your (high quality and genuine) videos, you still aren’t at 1 million subs. I tell anyone and everyone that comes to me asking for sneaker advice to go straight to your website/channel. 1 mil soon enough
Definitely interested in these, even though they're Kobe clones. I'm sort of a NY Liberty fan, kind of interested in the purple CW rn. I am concerned the toe box is going to be tight as hell though.
Another entertaining video from Weartesters! Thanks for performance review on these. I played in my pair for the first time last week, and I thought that they did really well. I am curious about how long they'll hold up, but I'm enjoying the ride. Can't wait to see what colorways get released.
I love what they are doing with Sabrina’s shoes. Nothing gimmicky, straight to the point and clean. It’s a little disappointing to hear about the cushion though….right when you mentioned dead, I instantly was brought back to your 1st gen React review…with the Jumpman Superfly. It’s so great to see the ladies finally getting great performers…AGAIN!!! Why it disappeared for a long while is beyond me since they have not stopped playing bball. As for the question of the day…it’s good FOOD for me! I can enjoy it by myself, I can enjoy it with people…I eat to live and live to eat! 🤤❤️💯 Also…that James Brown cutaway had me DYIN!!!😂 Jodi…you are a treasure! Dare I say…on a National level! 🫶🏽🫡😆
1. Love the Serious Player Only AD, I’d love if they made a 12.5 shoe because I’m just in between their sizes. 2. 2.Having both of my parents and being able to talk to each of them and then those hometown food spots always hit 😭
Great vid!! I love that it's super firm and lockdown is good but I noped out of wanting to buy it when I saw the 'weird pointy shape' part cuz my feet are slightly wider. Damn shame.
When I get home from work and my dog's wagging her tail so much that her whole body is almost shaking, that's one of those little things that makes me happy every single day, no matter how hard a day it might've been. It's an immediate boost.
QOTD: Doing a better job today than yesterday. It's the "Nike Zoom Kobe 5 Protro Reimagined," also known as the "Nike Zoom Kobe 5 Protro That You Can Actually Buy For Retail Sometimes." Scarcity as a means to promote FOMO (and therefore sales) is another topic for yesterday's video. Thanks for the review! You got my comment and my like.
I hope to get my hands on a pair of these shoes soon. Answer of the day: my 8 y/o son, being able to play videogames with him, take him to school before work, and my wife. Second place, play basketball.
Update: my wife bought them for me. Really amazing shoe. Thought the looks were cheap. But in person they are BEAUTIFUL! chose between sabrina 2 and kobe 8. Sabrina 2 all the way. Those Kobe's are overhype and overrater. Amazing shoe by performance and looks.
I’ve been waiting to grab a pair of the 1’s on discount and have yet to try them on 😅 But these aesthetically look so good that I’m torn between which ones I should get. What makes me happy is family, friends, music, sneakers, and food 😌
Jodies' happiness is people bringing her coffee hahaha. Fair enough. Wouldn't mind people bringing me cheeseburgers....in moderation. You guys definitely always leave me smiling and satisfied 😂. They just need to make the Sabrina line a kobe protro for the people. All the bells and whistles, none of the resell. Have a good one guys.
i have the light blue sabrina 2s and after playing aau basketball over the summer and wearing them only inside for about 5 months they started to break on the top of them which kinda sucked
Oh man, folks in the comments saying the Nike By You for the Sabrina 2s is live! Bout to make to a few designs on these! Things that make me happy (there's a ton but just two for now): good food and great music, whether it's a classic album or new, I can get lost in it for hours.
Love these Sabrina's. Definite improvement from the 1 on court. 2 big concerns from playing 5x already in them. 1. Quality 2. Durability Day 1 they dyed my white socks purple. Not terrible and it mostly came out in the wash Day 3 the purple rubber outside of the pinky toe area started to separate badly. I'm sending them back and will try another color in the future releases.
@@TheDon6 ended up seeing so many reviews about the toe area separating I'm holding off. Sticking to my LeBron 21s for now. I'll give the Sabrina another try when they on clearance 🤣
Agree with both of you about what makes me happy. My people and my hobbies are my favorites. But getting a coffee is such a simple thing but fills me with happiness, especially if it’s a random (or planned) “wanna get coffee”?
Why is it that in a lot of recent Nike signature shoes that they’ve gone away from flyknit uppers? That was a HUGE forward progression with basketball shoes, but it seems like they’ve gone away from it.
This might be the shoe for me, I loved the Kobe 5 but i had an issue what i dont think i've seen anyone else report. There was a section cut out of the rubber sole to save on weight, when I planted my heel I would occasionally just slip and get no grip because it was only the midsole connecting with the floor.
I would say is a good thing they bring this to the market because Kobes is so hard to get these days and this is more easier to get this for those that really wants Kobes
Performance review Wednesday!!!!! Mrs.Wing whats your top 5 runners and what x -men character would you make into a shoe? ( like reebok made gambit and wolverine themed shoes
the tongue of the shoe has an angle on the side edge that just cuts into my foot/front ankle! Would’ve loved this model otherwise, but I will be returning :(
Yes, add 1.5 to get your mens size. I'm a size 9 in US Men and I have to add 1.5 to women's sizing making it a 10.5 in US Wmn. Although the Width will be a bit tighter so it's always best to try on
So what I took away from this review was, go buy more Sabrina 1s, especially at 80-90 bucks! Sabrina 2s, I’ll see you when you at < $100. 😉 QotD: In addition to all the EXACT same things Chris listed, I’d say my Shiba Inu; love that little fur nugget.🐕
Awesome review! As a fellow older hooper, I had a lot of hope these would work for me, but they were not for me. Finally Sabrina sneakers accommodated my wider foot, but the cushioning was very mediocre for my size (6’0 and 205lbs) and my left Achilles started burning the days after playing in these. Switched to the nxxt and kd16 and have been pain free since. Awesome review! 🎉
I love your show. But please do this 😂😂😂. In the Philippines if the resellers saw a nike shoe that is hyped they will hoard everything and sell it double or sometimes triple the price. That's why most of us users switched to China brands which is also a blessing in disguised. Fan of nike until i used anta.
Bruh same assessment - Althought im heavy footed so I prob felt the cushlon compression a little bit more - but felt like I didn't have shoes on. Yeah also the interior starting to wrinle
People, including people who make such amazing honest reviews for the basketball shoes 🥳 Sometimes, hearing a nice compelling story from Chris is just what's needed to flip a day to good one 🤩 Thanks a lot for your work 😎
From Nike has lost its way to some pretty fire performance signature shoes. I think the Nike issue is having a portfolio of shoes out there, they can’t all be beast performers, but they want to leverage the ‘brand’ of popular athletes, so some signature shoes aren’t what we think signature should be. We just gotta reset expectations, and remember that when people are being paid for their name/endorsement tread carefully (pun intended)
Been watchin you for 10 years, just wanted to say thank you for sharing your knowledge. Its more appriciated than you can imagine. Best wishies from Croatia!

One thing that makes me happy is a true performance review from Da Wing! Good to see you still getting some court time.

Hey I love ur vids but i got one quick question, should i get these or gt cut 3??
These are 🔥👍🏼. I’ve been messing around via Nike by you. The options ate 👍🏼.

Great review! Please post a performance review for the SPO Ranger and Game 1
What makes me happy?
When I'm on my lunch break and I see the notification that there's a new performance review 🙌🏻

Always entertaining and supremely descriptive in every possible way! Jodi’s laugh always make me smile too! Appreciate y’all!!!
Can these be worn on a night out to a bar or party with a suit, or shirt/jeans? (as long Nikes colour combination are smart)?
for plastics and rubbers the film you're talking about is called mold release, it's so the compound you're curing doesn't bond to the mold
GO BRINA, GO DUCKS, and go buy these shoes. Love it.
1. Love the Serious Player Only AD, I’d love if they made a 12.5 shoe because I’m just in between their sizes. 2. 2.Having both of my parents and being able to talk to each of them and then those hometown food spots always hit 😭
What makes me happy- is a day where nothing goes wrong 😊

i know i read the title , but when i saw thumbnail and beginning i was like "oh its a kobe shoe review".....
agree with Chris, its my people
Weartesters video cutaways make me happy 😂

What was that shoe you showed w cushion?
I had the same issue with the inside materials wrinkling on my purple pair, felt it after wearing them twice
Hey Chris, between the Jordan 38 and Sabrina 2 - which one would you choose? Which one has the better cushion?
Update: my wife bought them for me. Really amazing shoe. Thought the looks were cheap. But in person they are BEAUTIFUL! chose between sabrina 2 and kobe 8. Sabrina 2 all the way. Those Kobe's are overhype and overrater. Amazing shoe by performance and looks.

@@TheDon6 who knows if all the Sabrina's will be like that but all the 21s I've had have held up great and some on Nike are $75-100. Hoop well homie
@@momof2emk Wont take any chances lol. But I just copped the Queen colorway for like 80$ !
I don’t know what basketball to get Tim trying to decide if I should get the Sabrina 2s or the gt cut academy
Great review as always! Wish Nike added a zoom turbo in the forefoot and I think these would be perfection.
Agree with both of you about what makes me happy. My people and my hobbies are my favorites. But getting a coffee is such a simple thing but fills me with happiness, especially if it’s a random (or planned) “wanna get coffee”?
Loved the first one. Very Kobe-esque. Might take a look at the 2.
Why is it that in a lot of recent Nike signature shoes that they’ve gone away from flyknit uppers? That was a HUGE forward progression with basketball shoes, but it seems like they’ve gone away from it.
This might be the shoe for me, I loved the Kobe 5 but i had an issue what i dont think i've seen anyone else report. There was a section cut out of the rubber sole to save on weight, when I planted my heel I would occasionally just slip and get no grip because it was only the midsole connecting with the floor.
I have to subscribe, great content!
Would be interesting to see how the gum rubber option in Nike ID performs outdoor.
I would say is a good thing they bring this to the market because Kobes is so hard to get these days and this is more easier to get this for those that really wants Kobes
Performance review Wednesday!!!!!
Mrs.Wing whats your top 5 runners and what x
-men character would you make into a shoe? ( like reebok made gambit and wolverine themed shoes
Awesome review as always.
Thank you for another great video WT team.
It's a good thing these are great performers cause nike's not moving the innovation needle. Being out on the golf course makes me happy tbh
That ranger shoe really reminds me of the J.Cole dreamer 2's with that mustard and black colroway
Ordered these on "For You" in a Yeezy 2 Solar Red colorway
even with a move game day insole it’s still not enough cushion?
The James Brown insert 😂😂😂
Dude. These are awesome! WNBA Players have better shoes now. Even the 1's looks pretty great
Versus GT cut 2 which one is better?
Question. That sabrina was for unisex?
Which shoe is better, the sabrina 2 og dbook 1s?
What in your opinion is the best performing basketball shoe of all time
the tongue of the shoe has an angle on the side edge that just cuts into my foot/front ankle! Would’ve loved this model otherwise, but I will be returning :(
Another great review
I have a wide foot, should I go half a size up?
Can you please do a performance review on the GT Jump 2? I already have one but haven’t played in yet. Still waiting for your take on them
Midsole already coming off? How long are you using it for 😢
These do look like Kobe 5’s. THanks for pointing that out. You are absolutely right
I bought the 1's online but had to return them cause they fit me narrow and long like janoskis.
If I wear a size 9.5 (wide feet) for kobe 8s protros, what size should I go for with Sabrina 2s?
Which shoes has the best cushion?
Are these better than the get cut 3?
anyone know if i should get the same size as gt cut academy/kobes/ sabrina 1? Im trynna do nike ID so I need fit to be good
Hey what was that song after you said it was hot out there?
do these come with men's sizes?
Yup.
Its unisex
Yes, add 1.5 to get your mens size. I'm a size 9 in US Men and I have to add 1.5 to women's sizing making it a 10.5 in US Wmn. Although the Width will be a bit tighter so it's always best to try on
Yeah they are unisex
What was the “wild” pair he pulled out??? New kds?
@@Boigeeneeus Gt Hustle 3
@@camwilliams6886 yea I saw the ad soon after haha. Thanks
Off topic question: anybody know if the player only midsoles fit in the Kobe 9 or Kobe 11?
It runs so big for me, the toe box was so long and it doesnt hug my toes i hadda return :( needed half size down
guys what do I take in my country Sabrinas costume cost 1300 kr and wow 10 cost 1500 on sale
Width wise they were great and I had no foot pain in these... BUT I went true to size and I had a lot of length. That disappointed me
I can't believe they won't shell out for both heel and forefoot zoom for her second shoe
Can’t wait to customize these
went here because I have Sabrina 1 and planning to cop S2
Was on the fences above these changed my mind
Curry 12 or these?
Hey Chris what are your faith beliefs? Just curious.
making other people happy makes me happy
So what I took away from this review was, go buy more Sabrina 1s, especially at 80-90 bucks! Sabrina 2s, I’ll see you when you at < $100. 😉
QotD: In addition to all the EXACT same things Chris listed, I’d say my Shiba Inu; love that little fur nugget.🐕
Sabrina 2 or gt cut 3
