Great point about the traction and keeping it the same. Drives me crazy when ppl complain the traction is the same on the currys. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it! It’s under the shoe anyway lol
When I got these in on Friday..... All I have to say is there isn't another shoe I've put on. I have the AE1 USA also. The CURRY 12 USA in the navy is something else.
@@yogxnzo8285 If a shoe isn't a 1:1 fit you're going to get some heel slippage. It's just going to happen unless we can start heat molding shoes like we do ice skates. I'm a genuine 10.5 in Adidas. I got a 10.5 and they fit fine. Also, don't really think the lacing structure of the AE1 is good enough to correct heel slip. You have to try them on personally. Which is hard to do. I will always recommend a Curry shoe tho. They can be found everywhere to try on and get your right fit. My 2nd favorite shoe is the LeBron NXXT Gen
Thank you for this great review. I really came for the conversation since I don’t really buy performance basketball shoes but just came here to see you guys talk. Question: would love to hear your Mount Rushmore of the shoe designers.
Shoutout UA, I know Steph makes a lotta money from that partnership, and I'm sure they sell quite a few of those Curry's, but as beloved as he is, just imagine how many pairs of shoes he'd sell if he were still with Nike. It would be crazy imo. (I know about his history with Nike).
So true about the shoe statement from an availability point of view. Like Nike listen to us, we want those Kobe 4, the Book 1s, even the LeBron... Btw, I'll finally get a Curry model.
Finally someone spoke the damn truth Nike just keeps selling overprized low quality products with poor designs thanks to hypebeasts and resalers who don´t even play basketball, and customers who don´t wanna admit they're no looking for good performance products, they just hop on trends and let marketing fool them so they end up paying insanely high prices for something that ain't worth it But when a brand comes over and starts giving consistent high quality products designed specifically for performance not caring all too much about hype, people start calling 'em cheap and boring This Nike fanbase really needs to stop ruining the sneakerhead community, Nike is not the brand they used to be
Haven’t had a pair of currys since the curry 1 lows when I was in highschool. Totally pumped to try these definitely will be purchasing a pair this upcoming pay day. Great review as always!
I like UA and Curry products in general but Flow doesn't agree with the court I play on so I haven't tried any since the first flow futr x. Maybe I'll give these a try at some point, I think they refinished our court this summer.
The moments where Flashpoint Batman met the mainline Batman (and what happens after the Flashpoint universe disappears) are one of my favorite moments in comics for reasons I won’t spoil here.
Question of the day: when you reference a previous iteration of a signature shoe, like the Curry 11, and compare current aspects of the shoe like fit and lockdown, do you actually remember how they were off the top of your head or do you have to refer to any notes you made or the previous review you posted to remind yourself of how they felt?
Hey WearTesters! Here's a new idea on how to keep this channel up and running and gain more subscribers: Start making videos on revisiting sneakers you've reviewed in the past or recently. I mean, another performance review after they've been used several times. It's for viewers to learn how basketball shoes perform in the long term or after they've been used many times! Not just SINGLE reviews after you tested them for a few games only or first time on-feet feeling. Basketball shoes perform differently after many uses.
With regards to elite traction….yes keep it. It doesn’t matter what brand. I’m glad the curry line has done just that. I did wonder while watching the Olympics if that lateral side was an actual piece for stability or just a graphic and glad to hear it does serve a stability function. Really Cool! The shoes overall look DOPE!! As for the question of the day, you’re sport on with the difference. I’m thinking about it and i can’t see Bruce without Batman, because Bruce Wayne is the facade. Although I guess…the closest I can think of Bruce anting to hang up the cape and cowl was in “Mask of the Phantasm”…it lasted just a split second. The Flashpoint side story regarding Batman was fantastic….and one of my absolute favorites! As much as I’d love to experience Tony’s lifestyle and genius intellect, I love all of Bruce’s skillsets more. They also seem more well rounded in comparison.
The Curry 1 just hits different still my favorite looking, and performing obviously haven’t played in this one but I tend to like Mid’s better than lows outside of a few signature Nike’s I’d definitely try these though.
Very tempted to get the Blue Olympic AE1. I have an old pair of the NIKE ZOOM FLIGHT DUNK HOOP from 08 and they had a fantastic Olympic version. super sad Nike has NOT put out more RWB/gold themed shoes this year. just those spotted ones.... UGH....
First of all, the Curry 6 is the most underrated model in the line. Rarely ever gets mentioned in the upper echelon, but that's where it belongs. I may have to give these a try, but the flow outsole honestly stops to hard for me and has really bothered my feet in the past.
my problem with Curry's with Flow is the toe, My kid can burn thru the toe cushion in just over a month. the rest of the shoe is fine. had to buy three pair in one high school season.
These actually look fire and hearing that the cushion is that good gets me hype for them. Curry's have been good, but not really great the last few iterations. This looks like a deffo pick up. ETA: Great take on Bruce v Tony. A consistent portrayal of Bruce, from all his supporting cast, is that his real mask is the face of Bruce vs the cowl being his real face. Tony is just a rich playboy who decided, 'I can be a hero too!'. I'd rather be Tony just because I'd actually be able to be 'me' as opposed to having to pretend to be a well adjusted rich guy lol.
QOTD: Bruce Wayne. Albert is cool. Future QOTD since Chris loves all things retro: What are your favorite albums (one per year) of 1984, 1994, and 2004? Literally everybody's coming for Nike/Jordan Brand lately--and doing a good job of it, too, it seems. Thanks for the video! Here's a comment and a like. When's the next nerd channel video?
I’m 48yo & after decades of playing basketball on & off, my Achilles tendon feels like it’s gonna snap with every step, the day after playing…..welcome to basketball old age my friend 😂 it’s like dog years. For ever year of basketball, your body goes through x number of years of wear n tear. My issue with Under Armour is the length is a fraction shorter & toe box depth is shallower than most brands. I really want to like UA more, but my feet are freaky.
I'm surprised you thought the Curry 6's had the best cushioning up to this point. IMO it's the 8's because those things were like unlocked OG Lunarlon to me
GOAT Performance Review youtuber since day 1 ! Good job Uncle Chris . Big love from Indonesia 🫡 Please come visit Indonesia and let's hoop together here Unc . God Bless 🫶🏻
the tongue looks like the anafoam used on the Curry 1. I figure they tried holes for breathability and found the material to be a comfort issue when lace pressure was applied.
I feel Bruce without batman would literally be a living ghost. He'd be wandering around with basically No identification since batman isn't real yet, so I believe that would've inpired another intity based off of batman but as a possible villian with jokers tactics without being joker.
I have multiple Currys, 8, 9 and Flotro 2, but even that it’s said it has great traction… maybe on a super clean court. where i play there is dust on the wood due to school kids and man i’m skating all around :( so keep that in mind if you are buying a flow
As big of a Batman fan as I’ve been since a kid I never really thought of how long Bruce Wayne has really been the mask. QOTD: if you could build a starting five around yourself for a pickup game using current players who would you pick?
Everyone here isn’t a hooper! We just want to rock our favorite players kicks. I just wish they’d go back to rubber outsoles. Atleast come out with a separate version with rubber added to the outsole?!
Well atleast they dont use plastics anymore a.k.a the hyperfuse stuff way back then iykyk 😂. Btw a question chris. What happened to your kobe 8 gotta catch em all! Collection? 🤣
The navy colorway is so fire
Great point about the traction and keeping it the same. Drives me crazy when ppl complain the traction is the same on the currys. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it! It’s under the shoe anyway lol
On the site, the navy colorway is sold out. Theres limited pairs left for the white pair. Steph pretty much made history in these. 👍🏽👍🏽👌🏽👌🏽
When I got these in on Friday..... All I have to say is there isn't another shoe I've put on. I have the AE1 USA also. The CURRY 12 USA in the navy is something else.
Are the AE1 lows USA good? I heard that they have heel slippage and run long. What is your personal experience with them?

This is definitely a cop, it’s all about the story behind curry’s performance in the Paris Olympics. A big impact for winning gold

You really have the best perfomance reviews. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Glad you like them!
I played in mine yesterday and they are amazing! I don't want to play in another shoe currently.
your take on batman was spot on. you know your stuff! your name is nightwing after all lol
So true about the shoe statement from an availability point of view. Like Nike listen to us, we want those Kobe 4, the Book 1s, even the LeBron... Btw, I'll finally get a Curry model.
Lets go 1 Million!
Finally someone spoke the damn truth

This Nike fanbase really needs to stop ruining the sneakerhead community, Nike is not the brand they used to be
Haven’t hooped in a Curry since the 7, hearing these have the best cushion is an insta buy
The 7 was an odd disappointment. It also didn't even last a year right? lol
@@Bliu2th i personally liked them but as for longevity they dropped before everything shut down so it’s all a blur
I hope one of these days you can make a Best Outdoor Basketball Shoes video again 🙏🏼
The Adam Sandler cutaway referencing Chris' thoughts on the tongue was perfect 😂.
just found out about you guys, great work with website and videos! Thanks
I need to try this tweaked version of Flow. Super intrigued now.
Great breakdown of the shoe as per usual, but that character breakdown of bruce/batman at the end was perfect!
Still rocking the Curry 4 flotro high, I might have to check this out tho!
Got my pair Saturday. Absolutely LOVE IT!
Always the best. Thanks for the review yall
Haven’t had a pair of currys since the curry 1 lows when I was in highschool. Totally pumped to try these definitely will be purchasing a pair this upcoming pay day. Great review as always!
ooh, i loved ur break down of bruce"s/ batman character🤟🏼
Wish you guys would bring back the podcast it was awsome

That colorway instantly reminded me of the Fila Grant Hill 3 in the Navy.
Glad to see you ballin’ and wear testing. Stay healthy

I feel like there was a missed opportunity for a snipet from The Office to get plugged in right where you said "great sculpting in the rear", haha
Thanks for a good review
What a plot twist for the Curry line, awesome ❤️🔥
Another video! Let's get itttttrt
Hard facts spoken!
4:19 beautiful cinematography !
Curry made history in these! waiting for my pair in the mail. thanks for the review. looking forward to hooping in these 💦 💦
I like that you have a shoe every now and then that you really like!

Curry 2 and 6 have a special place in my heart. Might have to cop these
Yeah, those are the GOATs i hope they retro the 6.
Got my Curry collection. Great for working out in the gym
I love the flotro retro Curry brand is releasing and for the price on sale u just can’t beat it
Damn...that was the strongest intro to a shoe that I've ever seen.
that sole and traction is fantastic, if it ain't broke, don't fix it!
That jumpshot form though!
Great reviews. Love the content.
Great review 🎉love the edits 😭😂
that's a good question, and a great answear. we are changed by the events in our lives, we can not predict what we end up.

I may have to give these a try, but the flow outsole honestly stops to hard for me and has really bothered my feet in the past.
Now I am worried about Curry’s ankles 😂 and with heel pain, keeping them warm in the summer is key! No shorts with AC!
These look great! Dope review as always 🔥🔥🔥! QOTD: Batman, always Batman!
my problem with Curry's with Flow is the toe, My kid can burn thru the toe cushion in just over a month. the rest of the shoe is fine. had to buy three pair in one high school season.
Curry 11s are awesome. Excited to try the 12s
They look great and UA dropped the msrp from $160 to $140🔥🔥🔥🔥
Off topic Chris, but you mentioned the 12 or 13 for outdoor use. Which would be better for very wide feet?
These actually look fire and hearing that the cushion is that good gets me hype for them. Curry's have been good, but not really great the last few iterations. This looks like a deffo pick up.

First time I’ve wanted an Olympic colorway in a long time.
I need to get back to playing and try these.
Awesome review as always. 🔥
I’d rather be bruce wayne for sure.
I'm surprised you thought the Curry 6's had the best cushioning up to this point. IMO it's the 8's because those things were like unlocked OG Lunarlon to me

I'm gonna get the navy just so I can do the reenact that shot in the Olympics. lol That QOTD was kinda deep. Idk which I'd be.
Nightwing roasting em kids!
I really like these shoes. I just wish He had better color way. Hopefully they release more when the season starts back up.
Might have to try to pick these up
the tongue looks like the anafoam used on the Curry 1. I figure they tried holes for breathability and found the material to be a comfort issue when lace pressure was applied.
Another banger!. Yes please.🙏🏼
Traction on Currys are elite until they get dusty and then you slide all over the place on dirty courts. Has that changed?
The flow series never misses
I can't wait for the Tatum 3's!!
Hi where did you buy the shorts you used in the pickupgame showned?
Try since Apparel
@@vigilancenyoni3944 tnx., but cant find the shorts on the site
Yoo where did you get those shorts they're fireee
I think I saw something similar on since Apparel
I'm not sure if i missed it, but how does the Curry 12 perform on dustier/dirtier indoor courts?
Imma go Bruce cuz Tony with no suit still has to worry about the tech in his chest right? Like the thing keeping him alive I mean.
Always Support my favorite sneakerhead
For AL
Ty can’t wait for mine to come in
Is Chris Having heel pain ? It s the 40s ! Yeah getting old sucks ! Go with neutral cushion shoes it helped me !
Bruce Wayne, Billionaire!!!!!! I've never even try'd on any Steph's kick's 🤔
Waiting for the purple and gold colorway 👀
I feel Bruce without batman would literally be a living ghost. He'd be wandering around with basically No identification since batman isn't real yet, so I believe that would've inpired another intity based off of batman but as a possible villian with jokers tactics without being joker.
time to save money, for december. So (I wish) I could by multiple of these
defs be batman without being batman hahaaha. also this might be my new indoor hoop shoe once i can get it for sale.
I have multiple Currys, 8, 9 and Flotro 2, but even that it’s said it has great traction… maybe on a super clean court. where i play there is dust on the wood due to school kids and man i’m skating all around :( so keep that in mind if you are buying a flow

After Curry's performance i wanna buy this!
The real
MVP of the olympics ❤
Algorithm but not… tell me an Air Tech Hot Lava video is in our future!! Thanks J & C
Everyone here isn’t a hooper!
We just want to rock our favorite players kicks.
I just wish they’d go back to rubber outsoles.
Atleast come out with a separate version with rubber added to the outsole?!
Well atleast they dont use plastics anymore a.k.a the hyperfuse stuff way back then iykyk 😂.
Btw a question chris.
What happened to your kobe 8 gotta catch em all! Collection? 🤣
Question: i started wearing long sleeves because back in the day you convinced in one of your videos i noticed you stopped why is that?
Nightwing torching them young bloods...
This review made me get this👍
I love the look.
curry gold medal game shoes 😍🔥
There is a lot of truth to what you said. I want the shoes that Steph won Gold with. UA is sold out in my size, but I really want them.
