I can’t lie since the AEs dropped I’ve been buying more adidas than Nike/JB. Adidas is giving us more with the greatest price ever. I hope they keep putting out great stuff and don’t get greedy like some other brands
Nike as a whole is struggling right now. They making some money on the retro/Jordan side of things, but for performance shoes across multiple sports, they losing ground to competitors.
I don’t hoop but I bought them. You best believe ima walk in to the mall wearing them casually looking like I just came off the court after scoring 25pts 5 rebounds and 10 assist. They just look too good. Haven’t bought an adidas basketball sneaker since d rose 1
I remeber getting the d rose 5 pair in which Derrick hit the buzzer against the cavs and today's reference to the crazy explosive and the rose 6s got me reminiscing about watching these videos back in 2010s , the amount of help you've provided and the company you've kept to a young kid like me looking for a hoop shoe that's going to perform the best and last as long as possible makes me emotional and proud that I trusted you (before every adidas review and a rose shoe review I was crossing my fingers that these would get your approval lol ).Super happy for you and your family,much love from greece
Hey Chris! I bought your D-rose 6’s off you a few years back! Loved this video and the adidas history you gave. I’ve been watching you since the beginning I think almost 2 decades now? I was just a kid that couldn’t afford shoes and watched your videos and then you released the Kmart protégés shoe line. It was a great throwback for me. Now I’m a broke military vet with a body of a 70 year old but decided to break out into performance reviews and you are one of my inspirations for my channel. The drose 6 is a holy grail for me and I think the best implementation of boost imo. That soft goodness in the heel was pure gold 🥇! These are clean, but genuinely hate the upper, just too much dead space for my liking on top of my foot and the way it flexes definitely feels robotic and not natural. Still a Jordan 1 type effect because the looks is just that unique and credit is due on adidas. Hoping they don’t screw up the AE2!
I couldn’t wait for the lows to drop, the mids I had to go down a half size just to get better support and minimize the deadspace in the forefoot. The lows I went true and they fit me amazing, they feel significantly lighter on foot too. Can’t wait to get them on court
I’m a Nike guy all day, twice on Sunday but I had to get a pair of these lows. And thank you as always NightWing2303….Adidas as been killing it lately!
While I wanted to do the lows, I heard there was heel slippage problems from the basketball shoe Reddit, so I played it on the safe side and got the mids cause I know for sure I need as little chance as possible for my shoe to come off. Glad to know they’re actually very good but there was too many heel slippage comments for my liking.
I copped 11.5 cause most adidas I have to size up, then saw all the AE1 reviews saying they run big, good to know the lows don’t have that problem thankfully 🙏🏾
Man, I have been watching your videos since 2015. Editing goes crazy and reviews are still awesome and reliable when I need to know about a shoe. Love your videos and so awesome to see your growth!
I've heard from reviews that there's a huge heel slippage issue with the lows that were overlooked. Heard that even people experienced heel slippage just from simple walking on these!
Got the chance to play in mids and this low top version. Weight is really a big factor for me. Since I have bad knees, I prefer these low tops for them being lighter without sacrificing cushion and impact protection. Adidas is really killing it right now. I hope the folks at Nike is keeping an eye on how good 3stripes is right now. Nonetheless, AE 1 Low is surely the " bang for the buck " shoe this 2024.
So stoked to get mine tomorrow. I ordered the high top Charcoal ones though. Hoping they made some of these changes in those too. I have been trying to score a pair of these from adidas for a couple of months now. Excited to put them on and check them out.
Finally got my first AE 1's this month and it's already one of the best shoes ive ever purchased. Adidas is on fire. I need a better CW for the lows tho.
I still have my D'rose 6 March Madness and still wear them only for casual use. I was going to buythe primeknits because of nightwings review, but got lucky and had the MarchMadness instead. Still mad comfortable. Way back it was my favorite shoes to hoop, now I'm hoping to cop this one. More power to Weartesters.
Hopefully they make the stormtrooper colorway. I'm definitely copping multiple pairs. If they make that metallic purple ASW colorway as well I'll be hyped.
Thanks for the breakdown on these. Was wondering if they changed the molds just so they could have the lightboost cutout. The change in the cushion setup clarifies this for me.
I very much like the low more than the high. Cleaner look to me. Billy is the answer. He was smart and made the coolest gadgets. Flying car?! He was an easy 2nd to Tommy.
people on reddit had crazy issues of heel slippage even when going size down or their performance sizes. wish i couldve tried these on stores so that i can confirm as well lol. also some people said that they hurt their feet walking on these. kinda crazy to think about cause i love the mids.
Dope that they made subtle changes to improve an already great shoe don’t know if I’ll get the low or wait for the bred color way I have 2 pair so far. Can’t wait for the review of the AJ 39 got mine in today and super comfy, great lockdown, traction seems great and true to size in my opinion.
@@AGUCITO balled in them today - felt really good! Didn't feel heavy at all - and really responsive traction. Would recommend so far after a good 3hr session!
waiting for the stormtroopers to restock but i’m guessing that’ll never happen 😅 my favorite power ranger was Zack. the black suit was so clean and when he got the green ranger’s vest on top 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Got the mids awhile back and I’m definitely picking up the lows after seeing the vid. The issue I had with the mid was putting on the sneakers and the low takes care of that . Hope they release more colors in the low tho
I loved playing in the AE 1 and look forward to getting a pair of the lows!!! And favorite ranger that’s not Tommy would have to be Jason. I mean, he was they leader and had the T Rex Zord that came out the ground lol
I feel that's the ONE thing adidas will have to move away from to completely be "back", is to eliminate its Yeezy inspiration in its mainline models. That being said, these lows are nice!
I was waiting for this video and like always, you delivered when the team needed you the most lol…I copped the Stormtroopas in a 10.5 because you were spot on about them running big, so I got these in a 10.5 as well and to me they fit the same, maybe even better lol…great review as always, Chris 🙏🏾🙌🏾✌🏾
Totally agree about Jason. Dude was mad sus. Zack was my favorite outside Tommy because of his fighting style Hip Hop Kido. Trini's Yellow Ranger costume looked the best to me before the Green Ranger came along. As for this shoe, it will be copped eventually. Really enjoy the AE1s I have but happy they removed those bottom lace grommets. These lows will be my beaters. Great video as usual and thanks for the content.
I had copped the grey marble highs (because I love the highs so much and my launch pair is really scuffed) but after seeing this video I'm returning the highs and ordered the lows. Plus this gives me a reason to have both in active rotation.
Having watched many videos and reviews before my purchase, my suggestion is to go up at least half a size. I typically wear a US 9 for most sneakers but went up to a US 9.5 for these, and they fit me well without any heel slippage.
Favorite power rangers are easily Carter and Ryan (red and titanium) from light speed rescue, followed by Wes and Eric (Red and Quantum) from Time Force
After a week of playing in these, I think I’m gonna wear these for casual use instead. I feel like my heel slips off even with thicker socks and thicker insoles and sizing half down. Plus the weight even after sizing down does not help much. It’s just not my playing style but I do wear Yeezy 700s in all 3 versions (V1/2/3) and I can say that I can at least just style these shoes like that. I’ll still buy most colours they release in this model because of that.
Never owned a pair of the original mid tops. I hooped for about 2 hours in these a couple of days ago and they honestly felt really uncomfortable on my feet. Maybe they just need to break in, but perhaps it’s the ‘light boost’ effect not covering the entire midsole. Been hooping in the lebron 20 lows and they’ve felt comfortable since day 1
Interesting because I’ve seen Anthony Edwards switch out of the lows into the highs in multiple games last season. Seems awesome for casual use though.
I finally tried on my pair. I was worried because I had yet to try them on and there have been so many conflicting reviews. Some say true to size, some have said go up half a size and others said go down half a size. My true size is an 8 regular. I am sooooooo glad I went half a size down. If I would of gone with my regular size they would have been to big and I would have heel slippage. Going down half a size didn't make me feet feet too constricted in the shoe either, was not tight for me. Hopefully this feed back helps anyone debating on what size to go for but definitely try them on in store if possible
My sneaker of the year! It’s a new silhouette that’s affordable, obtainable, and carries adidas latest technology. In addition to that, you can wear these casually. BelieveThat!
I like the cushioning in the lows. A lot. I’ll just be using them for casual wear tho. I play outside and I’m not demolishing these. I get shoes at the outlet for that.
i got the all-star colorway (the best one, dont @ me), and beacuse of the short throat i couldnt even get in the damn shoe. so i had to go up 1/2 size and i can definetively feel that they are a tad roomy in the forefoot for me. ill be getting these but in the right size and save the pretty ones for posterity while the lows will 100% get battle-scared.
Wanted these but I decided to get the mid-top version instead since I didn’t really like this colorway. Will definitely be going for that pink colorway whenever it comes out tho.
Only $110 for these is crazy, def gonna cop a few colors
@@Daldir Fr, they great quality too
The hard part is getting a pair
@@EduardoVRrrrr I got lucky, they were at my mall

like this camouflage type cw. looks like ready for battle.
I like’em too

I don’t hoop but I bought them. You best believe ima walk in to the mall wearing them casually looking like I just came off the court after scoring 25pts 5 rebounds and 10 assist.
They just look too good. Haven’t bought an adidas basketball sneaker since d rose 1
Buying these shoes is the perfect chance to get back into hooping bruddah!!!
Bro these definitely can be worn off court they look like a yeezy model lol
The way I started screaming at the TV when Red Ranger put on the Dragon Shield 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

"which ranger not named tommy" yeah you know damn well tommy takes all top 3 spots lmfao
Good job Adidas, I love breathable shoes. On my list to purchase. Thanks Chris.
The black ranger was my favorite growing up. The AE1 is growing on my need to find it in stores
Man I was hoping you would review the lows. You’re always cooking. Thank you!
Man, I have been watching your videos since 2015. Editing goes crazy and reviews are still awesome and reliable when I need to know about a shoe. Love your videos and so awesome to see your growth!
I've heard from reviews that there's a huge heel slippage issue with the lows that were overlooked. Heard that even people experienced heel slippage just from simple walking on these!
Just stay to tts then in that case.
no heel slip in my case
Reddit is full of Chinese posters talking about heel slip
I tried on tts and had some pretty big heel slippage. I'd recommend tts or a have size down.
i wore them to my uni exam today, i felt it a bit as well, but after lacing them to the last eyelet, that issue was solved

That crazy explosive might be the best shoe I’ve ever hooped in, that and lebron soldier 7
Yup I owned a pair of the drose 6 and literally the boost along with the outsole tore apart… but they were my favourite
Finally got my first AE 1's this month and it's already one of the best shoes ive ever purchased. Adidas is on fire. I need a better CW for the lows tho.
You and I are on the same page🫶🏽🙌🏽. Great review fam
Great vid! Waiting on the WOW 808 4 ultra review
this is colorway is actually niice!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I love this video! The outro was awesome! It’s always going to be the green ranger for me. If I have to choose another it would be the white ranger 😂
So glad I got my pair!
I can't do low tops. But I love the high tops/mid tops AE1
Got my pair in today..def a little heavy, but pretty comfortable for casual wear. Can't go wrong with $110! Now more color ways!
The mural and slime green color ways will be instant cops 😮💨
Great review! 🔥shirt as well! Glad I was able to grab a pair!!
It feels like 🐜 took the Yeezy nostalgia and made a proper basketball shoe.

@@JosiahBrewster some Yeezy models have designs of silhouettes from the 90s and early 2000s
@@waynebarry2597 yes, but clearly Kanye/Yeezy Team's design language is evident in a decent amount of mainline models from adidas since Ye was there

I went with the mid ascent but I’m definitely picking up a pair of the lows when a new color way comes out (hopefully storm trooper)
Brilliant move adding the counter.
Zach and Billy are my two favorite MMPR's, then Tommy.
The crazy explosive low was such a good shoe
Excited for these. Billy was my guy as well 😂
Finally! Been waiting for yall to showcase these 😂
Can’t wait to try this… mine is on the way❤
Jason/Red Ranger was always cool to me, but then also Kimberly/Pink Ranger because I had and still have a crush on her.

Fun fact: if the shoes are made as low top after a high top version, they tend to feel slightly smaller. Certain models apply.

Grew up watching ninja storm, my favorite power ranger is Blake Bradley aka the navy thunder ranger.
These are selling quicker than any yeezy or GR jordan at the moment, and I hate it!
I just want a pair of AE1s wtf
Anyway, fire vid as always Chris!
Billy was always my boy, Tommy included. That said, the dragon dagger was dope af.
Those new Dames look like they may be fire 🔥 as well
I think the launch colors are dope.
I haven't hooked in Adidas since the lightweight Derrick Rose Shoes.

Adidas has been releasing the better performance shoes this year. More tech compared to the other brand for the price.
Awesome review as always 🔥
I like this 'initial colorways. 😊😊
Billy was my favorite too lol
I like the cushioning in the lows. A lot. I’ll just be using them for casual wear tho. I play outside and I’m not demolishing these. I get shoes at the outlet for that.
i got the all-star colorway (the best one, dont @ me), and beacuse of the short throat i couldnt even get in the damn shoe. so i had to go up 1/2 size and i can definetively feel that they are a tad roomy in the forefoot for me. ill be getting these but in the right size and save the pretty ones for posterity while the lows will 100% get battle-scared.
