How Zion Williamson's Nike Shoe Might Have Ripped
ฝัง

- Seconds into Duke’s game against arch-rival the University of North Carolina, star player Zion Williamson went down and his Nike sneaker came apart. The shoe ripped violently, exposing his entire foot and causing the freshman sensation to bow out of the game with a sprained knee in Durham, North Carolina. Williamson is considered one of the best in the nation and is expected to be the No. 1 pick in the forthcoming NBA draft. Williamson was wearing Paul George’s signature Nike PG 2.5 sneaker. #InsideEdition

It's because Nike wants all athletics to take a knee. They figured this was the easiest way
Hhahhha
?

Lame ass joke
The little kid in China that made that shoe is probably getting canned by now.
Not every shoe was made in China
Rip
nimol xo China assembled Nike shoes..
@@asadfalconsfan1851 haha that's funny
nimol xo that’s the joke dumbass
Maybe it broke because it was glued together not sewn together. Nike needs to stop cutting corners.
Maria Hale I mean get what u pay for🤷🏻♂️Maybe not the best thing to cheap out when u gonna use it alot
They use them a lot any shoe would break
The have to pay the kids in their sweat shops an extra 4 cents a day, so they have to cheap out in stitching to maximise proffits
Yes I agree
What do you expect from Chinese made products? 😂😂😂
Guy: writhing on the floor in pain
Other guy: great opportunity to steal the ball!!!
I don’t know if you’ve played basketball before but in the game people get their rebound and try to grab the ball... so I mean... sorry for the other team continuing doing what they’re supposed to do?
I mean, hr lost control.
You shouldn't atop the play if the whistle never gete blown
It's called competition, they're paid/play to win.
You don't get awarded just for attending.
Everybody left him there

you mean confronting Nike?

Imagine spending 10k for a college game and the best player doesn’t even play
If you got 10k to blow you probably dont care about money lol
HunkMine stupid comment, if you have $10k to spend on a basketball game you clearly care about money, otherwise you wouldn’t have that $10k to spend🤣💰
Imagine all that money being spent by fans and none of it is going to the best player.
Its free if you attend the college
@Jcxst Sûpręmé uhh yeah he did. Save ur laughs giggels
Damn his whole foot went through the shoe 😭😂
The glue let go that was holding the sole on. Once the sole is removed your foot can go thru the sneaker.
I’m deadddd😂😂😂”He broke his shoe with his own foot”😂😂💀
ang 012 Yes unbelievable!😂😂😂
NIKEEEEEEEEE!!! NIKEEEEEEEEE!! Why do you bond shoes together with glue for such important shoes. Stitch them! I hope he is alright.
Ray Mak that fabric is stitched in under the insole🤦♂️ inside edition is fake news
The shoe he got was the cheapest Nike has from what other new sources were saying
@@sammyzimmerman4719 The next shoe Nike make is gonna be scotched tape together.. more cheaply made bigger profits.. with world athlete wearing them... anything can be sold by Nike. It could be shoe made of paper and stapled. Introducing the new paper and stapled shoes by Nike
It wasn't the Nike glue. If you saw what broke, it wasn't the glue, it was the entire midsole that ripped in half. The upper stayed intact with the midsole.
It doesn't even look like this you almost at least find the same color scheme

Don’t they give high level baskeball players reinforced shoes so stuff like this doesn’t happen?
Yes. Shoes like
Jordans, Currys, Kobes, LeBrons, CP3s, etc.
ussr chris they give signed players with their own shoe deals specialized reinforced models. Since Zion can’t have a shoe deal in college he was wearing the standard Duke issued PG’s. Now that he’s in the NBA he has the specialized shoes
That’s for pros tho
Nike: “We’re just gonna pretend that didn’t happen...”

It looks like a foot long to me, so I think you're right.
He paid that shoe to broke
Damn funny !!!

A TEENY, TINY RUSSIAN GREMLIN HACKED THE SHOE !!! Didn't you SEE that?!
The eight year old kid who made this shoe is in big trouble

Inside Edition: A TOTAL DISASTER
Watch his stunned reaction, “his shoe broke”,he says.
Such wise words of wisdom
😂😂 he barely raised his eyebrows
Idk why but... I really hate your profile picture...
"working to identify the issue" ?? STOP MAKING CHEAP SHOES
Is it really that hard to understand?
John Perez It’s not Nike, he’s cheap, real NBA stars like MJ and Magic always have said they use a new pair every single game, this guy have been using the same pair for more than 10 months.
@@leo19751984 no he hasnt look how new the shoe looks the sole is bright as blue with barely any dirt on it
miguel martinez It might look like that, but everybody knows he’s used that pair for more than 10 months, as real pro’s said it before, they bought a new pair for every game.
Nike sponsors his team and thus must use those shoes. If Nike believes they would last that long without getting him some new shoes. Then that's still bad on their part. Regardless, athletic shoes aren't meant to rip like that ever.
Every shoe has a life span, but if your business is basketball then you use new shoes on every game, if you run a business you need to spend money in it, His business is basketball then he needs to spend money, NASCAR teams spend lots of money on tires, because they know they”ll burn those out, in a nut shell you wanna make money then spend money, besides it’s not only me saying it, Magic Johnson said the same thing about those shows being worn too much, you can’t contradict a guy that made a living out of that sport.
That's how big Zion is, his shoes literally can't handle him 😂
nobody:

He should sue Nike. He could have been seriously injured. That shouldn't happen to $110.00 sneakers.
Yep, it's possible and he should do that. It has impact to his performance, his image, his health, etc.
@@farisrahmadian his career and livelihood could have been jeopardized. Nike's sales and profits might decrease, next time I get sneakers, I might not get Nike.
@@podsmpsg1 but you will
@@wetlikewater1875 how do you know?
You know what's crazy, in the basketball sneaker world, $110 is now considered a budget model.
FILA corporation: "This is our window... get our team to the hospital NOW!!

Haha
Reebok got there first.
“His shoe broke he said” oh my god not like anyone else would say that
"his shoe broke", he says.
people watching the news: "nooo waaaay!"
“He broke his shoe.”
With his own foot
See how they tried to take the blame off nike and put it on him
I guarantee you before this happened you couldn't find no one on the playground wearing his sneakers
I think that particular shoe is the Nike Colin Kaepernick model. It’s not meant for playing, Just Kneeling.

*slowly claps*
XavierDawg claps slower and more dramatically to outdo other slow clappers.
LMAO Thought the same thing when I heard they were Nike.
Try again Simp....paul George's shoe
Paul George....
God forbid there was an expert brought in or else I won’t have known that the shoe broke
In 2nd grade the same thing happened to me but with a different shoe brand and it ended up spraining my ankle
You don't need a shoe expert to explain why his shoe fell apart...it's common sense...smh...
They have Experts for every little thing fr
I agree, its most likely due to physics or should I say friction, weight, & pressure.
@@caspergaming5746 not just every little thing. They have experts for everything.
@@AgentSongPop next thing you know they have a blinking expert
@@caspergaming5746 LOL.
NIKE IS MADE $1 IN CHINA....& SELL FOR OVER $100
Yeah and Nike is thinking 1$ is too expensive and try to find solution to make more saving 😂
It's probably made in Indonesia since China is charging more than $1.
I’ll give you 10$. Now, make me a shoe...
PRINCE Prince It’s like $23
Buy USA made goods
Yeah, it totally doesn’t have to do with him being 6ft 7 and 400+ pounds, just bad shoe
It really doesn’t, lmao.
Zion Is 284...
He’s 285 but he’s a big guy and one of the strongest in the league rn
Looking at your picture u clearly don’t know anything bout basketball
But isn't the shoes supposed to be able to handle that much pressure during an intense game?
some chinese 8 year old don't put enough glue in the shoe
Cheap labor makes cheap products. Nothing new.
Thank god we had a sneaker expert around to tell us that it was faulty glue that was the culprit. Truly a solved mystery 🙄
Should have used flex tape
KPYY33 it was the foam from the midsole on Zion’s pair that tore. The glue and stitching held together. There was a lot of torque going into his shoes and that was a risky move he made so his midsole tore. The glue wasn’t faulty. And other images show that the pair of shoes were used before so that lowered the durability of the foam.
IKR and they would have gotten away with it if it weren’t for those meddling kids 😝
HAHA.. Thank you for making me laugh
It would have been more believable if they had interviewed Al Bundy
Wait how is that just glued and the glued part of the shoes is just so short, I never seen one like that
That happened to me in gym class I was playing soccer and my Nike shoes the whole entire side of it just split right open in the middle of me kicking a ball and it left the side of my foot numb for a while. The funny part is the shoes were only four months old.
Did you go to a shoe expert?
Lisa Guerro would have confronted that shoe
Or maybe the factory that makes them.
@@JamieMurphy25 leave it as the shoe. Lol confronting the factory makes too much sense. You can't make sense on YT, buddy. TH-cam code brah.
Guess Zion will be signing a contract with adidas after college lmao
looking back on this this was very insane that it happened
“Identify the ishoe” 😂😂👌🏻
Fake, The shoe was a paid actor
Ive had this exact same problem with my old nike shoes as they were tearing on the sides way too fast and addias shoes have been go to me since. Pretty unbelievable since this is a baskebtall shoe though
Easily could have been a groin tear and MCL as well. Kid got super lucky 🍀
**OBAMA'S STUNNED REACTION**
"His shoe broke"
If I’m spending a fortune on shoes, they’d better not fall apart like that!
Then buy better
Back in the 80's all we said was "MY ADIDAS" Why because they worked! Glue?! Nike glue! that"s just sad.
“We asked a shoe expert what went wrong”
Shoe expert: *rips off shoes
‘So that’s how it broke’
The sole and uper use to be stitched.They stopped for look and save money.
As expected Nike trying to use cheaper quality stuff in exchange for profit anyone noticed tho the quality of shoes has gone down alone with the quality of the back packs and gear it all feels cheaper more disposable
I think there quality of clothes has gone down as well
Haha Nike be like ""Check out the all new Nike trash bag "wind breaker" jackets.""
In 20 years, Inside Edition is going to consult me as a “meme expert.”

No
Ya seriously this has been happening since they switched over to glue, ask any highschool kid or any athletes that have played hard.
Thats nike for ya

SO MANY injuries could have happened in that split second!! Glad he's ok!! GOSH!!
Nike...DO BETTER!! Glue??
I've seen whole bones go through legs in the nba before lol
Adidas too. I bought two of them and in 2 months the bottom of my shoes separated.
Temujin Khan Then you were doing something not meant for normal shoes lmao
xClaw dude, running 6 miles each day shouldn’t worn out my shoes that fast.
BrendaAnne it’s not the glue. The glue held up the way it was supposed to. The shoes were put under great stress and have many times before so the foam was weakened from stress and tore.
Plot twists : *The shoe was a paid actor*
**When inside edition doesn't have anything to news**
Wow, that sweat shop Quality has REALLY gone down hill! 🤷♂️
Nike just ran out of Air. 👟💨
Well, Pump It Up. Oops! Sorry, wrong brand.
@@juicyfruit6311 actually, Nike did come out with the Nike air pump shoes. I used to have a pair. The pump was a basketball on the tongue of the shoes. 🙂
@@MrMJmusicLover True. Read about Nike's version in Sports Illustrated during the Dee Brown slam dunk contest win. Didn't it require the use of an external cartridge to inflate it? FYI I wore the Michael Chang/Tennis Ball Pump shoe. Damn things only lasted a month until the I wore out the soles.
@@juicyfruit6311 🤔 Never heard of the tennis shoe pump version before. 🤔

Nah
xSpectate- Fortnite yeah you’re right, idk why I said 6”4’ I literally looked it up before I commented that too... 😂
Exactly. Pgs aren't for big guys
Zion: plays 15 minutes into the game
Nike: time to make him fall
He played 36 seconds.
Honestly . Nike almost wrecked Zions career . Honestly Nike should have paid him a HUGE lump sum for causing that injury
Flex tape should patch that up. And also make Phil swift the new creator of Nike shoes 👌
Mihir Amin can’t wait for the flex tape 1’s
Hehehehe
They broke because they said he’s been playing in those shoes for two months, which is a crime, he’s 285 pounds and Coach K gets 10 Million a year from Nike. How is he playing in the same pair of shoes for 2 months. Pay these kids or let them go pro. Ridiculous!
ToxicKiller1734 he’s not going to college idiot he’s playing basketball. Once basketball season is over this month he will never see that school again. What an idiot.
I live in NC. Everyone at school the next day were all talking about it. They were acting crazy
