As a sneaker head watching, these videos hurt but at the same time it’s really nice to understand what we are wearing more and if someone was gonna destroy a shoe I’m glad it’s at least well documented and presented as educational. Looking forward to more in the future! P.s please do a pair of Jordan 4s I have always wanted to know how they layer the mesh/leather
They should not hurt you; sneakers use a lot of fake / cheap materials just to maximize profit off of folks like you then create another 'special' colorway to generate new hype to sell the same plastic trash to you all again and again and again what would be the dream is to start your own sneaker brand, destroy Phil Knight's legacy and start a new movement where the sneaker heads are the ones in charge and in control of the building materials used *as this $2k shoe has the same materials used as the Nike Outlet stores Dunks scratch n dent for $39.99*
lol maybe in a perfect world but theses shoes are and will continue to sell out so there is no point for them to spend more money on resources for better materials
@@ihavetoreturnsomevideotape2760 Why would they use better materials? That would cut into their profit margins. These companies are all about making money.
It won’t because people have a herd mentality and will always have fomo for trendy 💩 Brands marketers are always laughing when these fools pay $2k for pair of mass produced cheap shoes
Eh, I don't think this is shocking anyone - sneaker heads aren't buying these things because they actually think the leather is real or because they think cheap Nikes are comparable to high end products.
I did buy my first pair of Jordans this year and I did not really like them. I then saw him cut them in half and now I see why I do not like Jordan 1s. They are a 100$ shoe and not a dime more. Whoever pays more than that for such a let down of a shoe is nuts! Even Jordan said they were not comfortable.
No one is buying these because the materials are good. They're buying them because they look cool as hell. Personally I've been buying reps for two years. They've come a long way. The quality control is arguably better at some rep factories. I don't mind paying $100-$140 a pair at all because I know the materials aren't worth retail even.
I love the macro shots! We can see the fabric and leather so clearly and it really helps with understanding what kind of material they are and what they look like close-up. I've been looking into buying a new pair of sneakers with a friend and going into stores trying to see if a shoe is using leather or fabric has been helpful and frankly a little bit fun, thanks to your videos! Also surprised you haven't done a video on a Puma sneaker (other than the platform shoe), would be interesting to see maybe a Puma Suede cut open since I've heard good things about it being durable!

Decent chance these are reps considering they’re from StockX lol, although to answer your question in my experience the materials are often sourced from very similar (if not the exact same) place, so you’ll most likely find similar quality leathers and suedes to what Nike use.

very curious to see other sb dunks cut in half. especially the all suede versions of the colorways. I have been skating them for a bit now and am a big fan. So I hope those ones don't let down as much as these did.

Would be interesting to see the difference in quality between newer ones and older (black box and before). Anyone who's been buying SBs for that long knows how different they were.
Nike is the bad guy here, and thats coming from a lifelong sneaker head who loves their shoes. Its Nikes fault for not being clear with any type of authentication process.

Gotta say thank you because you and another TH-cam, as well as the hype train, has me pretty much done with Nikes and I now look for sneakers to not only look good but be of quality too. Also love that you've been exposing Nike's "leather" as it always seemed off to me that people would mention that x sneaker has premium leather, even when I did like Nikes.
Been wathcing the channel on and off ever since I saw the Iron Ranger being cut in half. So happy to see that StockX decided to sponsor the channel! Well deserved! Video idea: Comparison between "Jordan 1 High OG" and "Jordan 1 High '85" (e.g. the Varsity Red - supposedly the build and materials on the High 85 are superior)
You should consider the Off white 1-50 dunks for an episode, much cheaper to scoop then these trash flops in the resale market and a much better quality shoe. Retail was 180(I got a pair actually!) and the leather feels really buttery to me,(I’m no expert and couldn’t say whether it’s good or bad) but it’s got leather inside as well and the shoe has worn much better than an orange box or sb dunk.
I somehow managed to get the lot 1 OW dunk from last summers drop. The quality is actually still pretty dogshit. Leather feels very plasticy and the shoe is super uncomfortable.
@@Mohamed-bt7zx 15 at most, for the actual production atleast for a real leather dunk, but for fake yeah I can see these costing less than 10 to produce. Then add about 10-15 for bureocracy and distribution and the such. So we are left with around 50-70 dollars of profit for Nike depending on the dunk model, which is kinda nuts honestly.
I have 2 pairs of the Chunky Dunks and when you wear them the toe box has a serious crease that looks like a bent plastic piece! I dont care about creases but the crease is so noticeable its insane the even wear them!

Thanks :) been requesting this since your first dissection video. really wish nike sb would make these affordable again, i have a bunch of pairs of these from recent and old ones and i just want to be able to skate them again and not feel like im bleeding my wallet for it
Hey sorry to say brother I love your videos but that pair of Nike dunks are fake the sb logo underneath is supposed to be a lime green not black stock x definitely sent you a replica pair
You've really grown since your old videos, love the production even more now, it's disheartening to see that we pay so much for absolutely shit quality, keep up the great work!!!
Hey, Weston Kay. New sub here and I’m loving the channel - the hypebeast sneakers in particular. I just saved your New Balance 990 video to my watch later and thought that I would request videos on Hoka One One sneakers and Salomon XT6. I think it’d be a dope idea to shed some light on these sleeper hype brands. Best wishes to you and good luck!
I would love for you to consider making a video comparing standard issue military boots from different militaries around the world! US, Israeli, British, and Canadian are all commercially available

@@benjammin8510 not only sneaker wise. Gotta tell you that Primeblue is wayyy better and durable technology than DriFit. Nike only put effort on something when they really want, other than that is pure mimic and scam
love this channel exposing the terrible quality of today's shoes. Rose Anvil if you read this would you be able to get your hands on some Jordans from the 80's or early 90s and see if there were any differences in the materials or quality compared to today? your channel is much appreciated
See now.... I don't agree with you about who's fault it is. I think when I see a $100 retail price on a sneaker, I got enough sense not to pay $2000. But you gotta remember. That resell tax is basically a scarcity /hype tax. It wouldn't have mattered what it was made out of.
Hi, I’ve been subscribed for a few months now. Love your channel. I see you occasionally do giveaways. I could really use a pair of boots. Been down on my luck all year and just trying to survive. I currently wear a pair of blundstone and the right one is blown out on the toe cap. Love your content man. And your leatherwork. Can’t wait to purchase some soon.
You should start a ranking series where you pick a category and rank like top 5 comfortable boots or top 5 waterproof boots or most durable, warmest, sneakers, etc…
Would love to see some more of the air max series, especially the air max 1! Love the videos, it’s fascinating seeing and learning what shoes are made of and how they’re constructed
Love the way you dissect the shoes! there is a brand called Klogs Footwear, It is very popular with workers in health care and food service. They have Made in America models. I would love to see you take one of these apart.
Oh yah by the way, would it be possible for you guys to do a review on the Alexander Mcqueen oversized leather sneakers in white? Can wait to see your next exciting reviews. Thank you
This video is awesome !! P.s. Please do a jordan 1 85 cut and compare the leather with the regular jordan 1 . Would be nice to see if the leather is actually better in the 85 cut .
I'm a little late to the party but I must say, I am a sneakerhead and out of all the shoe related content on YT your channel is the one I watch videos all the way the through. Also, thank you for doing this video since I was really looking to cop a pair of these from a reseller but will now pass seeing as this shoe is made from recycled ice cream cartons and spray paint. Keep up the good work!
Would love to see you cover one of the SP Dunks from 2020. CU1726-100, CU1726-101, & CU1727-100 are the SKUs. These dunks seem to have a much higher-quality leather than what we see today. Would make an interesting comparison to today's dunks.
You should check out the nike dunk x passport “workboot”. Would suit the theme of your channel plus the material choices are more durable in looks, but are they really..? Also I’d love to see you do a dunk high and what your opinion is of them.
It would be really awesome if you could do a review on the Jordan 1 high 85´s. They are widely considered as a super high quality shoe with a really thick cut of real leather.
Would you review the Nike SB "Orange Label" dunks? Aimed at "core" skaters, the leather quality is better fr what I've heard. Recent "light cognac" SB dunk low is a great candidate!
I’d be curious to see you to tear apart one of Nike SB’s “Orange Label” Skateshop exclusive dunks. Look up the “Nike SB Dunk High Pro ISO Kentucky”, its resale is relatively low and the leather looks to be of a decent quality 👀

Can you do Adidas Forums 84? the hi version has really nice quality leather I believe, much better even compared to the best Nike can offer.
But they are pretty expensive as well
still cheaper than aj1s
Wasn't expecting this LOL i've seen videos of people cutting fake dunks but never a Chunky Dunky! It's a $100 shoe and the rest is just hype. Great video. Thanks!
love your vids, but you know having (Stock x) as a sponsor is cancer :{
Thanks :) been requesting this since your first dissection video. really wish nike sb would make these affordable again, i have a bunch of pairs of these from recent and old ones and i just want to be able to skate them again and not feel like im bleeding my wallet for it
It’d be very cool to see you cut and test some motocross boots especially expensive ones like gaerne
I appreciate you concluding that you need to test other SB Dunks for quality comparison. I’ll be watching for that upload!
Hey sorry to say brother I love your videos but that pair of Nike dunks are fake the sb logo underneath is supposed to be a lime green not black stock x definitely sent you a replica pair
You've really grown since your old videos, love the production even more now, it's disheartening to see that we pay so much for absolutely shit quality, keep up the great work!!!
You sold yourself short on the cut centered score. I give you a solid 10. 🤘🤓
Never thought I'd see a stockx sponsorship on this channel
Hey, Weston Kay. New sub here and I’m loving the channel - the hypebeast sneakers in particular. I just saved your New Balance 990 video to my watch later and thought that I would request videos on Hoka One One sneakers and Salomon XT6. I think it’d be a dope idea to shed some light on these sleeper hype brands. Best wishes to you and good luck!
Stockx can’t afford to send him legit 💀
Bro you are making banger after banger. Simply unmissable
nike is using such cheap material on these. Shame.
I would love for you to consider making a video comparing standard issue military boots from different militaries around the world! US, Israeli, British, and Canadian are all commercially available
StockX sent you fake shoes 🤣 just kidding... Thanks for another rad video
But are you kidding 🤔 😂
@@bigsho5218 he is. cuz these are real
As a sneaker head since 16, I’m glad I found this page! Thanks for being transparent. I hope your findings bring the change we need. Level out the sneaker game. No more being tricked.
He knew it was coming tho and this is actually the only outcome we can expect from a Nike Dunk dissect in his channel
Says alot about Nike...
@@benjammin8510 not only sneaker wise. Gotta tell you that Primeblue is wayyy better and durable technology than DriFit. Nike only put effort on something when they really want, other than that is pure mimic and scam
love this channel exposing the terrible quality of today's shoes. Rose Anvil if you read this would you be able to get your hands on some Jordans from the 80's or early 90s and see if there were any differences in the materials or quality compared to today? your channel is much appreciated
Sad knowing that some of the shoes in this series are probably fake since they’re from StockX
Wait, you think real ones have better leather? 😂
Great video! Y’all are killing it.
See now.... I don't agree with you about who's fault it is. I think when I see a $100 retail price on a sneaker, I got enough sense not to pay $2000. But you gotta remember. That resell tax is basically a scarcity /hype tax. It wouldn't have mattered what it was made out of.
Yup. Supply and demand. Demand way over supply. High prices are a given no matter the material
Hi, I’ve been subscribed for a few months now. Love your channel. I see you occasionally do giveaways. I could really use a pair of boots. Been down on my luck all year and just trying to survive. I currently wear a pair of blundstone and the right one is blown out on the toe cap. Love your content man. And your leatherwork. Can’t wait to purchase some soon.
Kinda the reason I buy reps, its not worth paying 2k by any means😓
Would be super interesting if you did the LV trainers as those are probably the most expensive / "premium" sneaker on the market right now
You should start a ranking series where you pick a category and rank like top 5 comfortable boots or top 5 waterproof boots or most durable, warmest, sneakers, etc…
Would love to see some more of the air max series, especially the air max 1! Love the videos, it’s fascinating seeing and learning what shoes are made of and how they’re constructed
Love the way you dissect the shoes! there is a brand called Klogs Footwear, It is very popular with workers in health care and food service. They have Made in America models. I would love to see you take one of these apart.
Your sneaker videos are the best!
Another great video! Would love to see you cut open a Nike Adapt auto lacing shoe!
ok we need a few hypebeast stuff now!
-foam runner
-yzy slide
-adidas forums
- kobes 5 or 6
- NB 550/560
- any nike or adidas football cleeats?
Oh yah by the way, would it be possible for you guys to do a review on the Alexander Mcqueen oversized leather sneakers in white? Can wait to see your next exciting reviews. Thank you
This video is awesome !! P.s. Please do a jordan 1 85 cut and compare the leather with the regular jordan 1 . Would be nice to see if the leather is actually better in the 85 cut .
Well played stockx lol 😂 what better way to show your truely authenticating by having a content creator cut them in half
it's really painful to watch getting these shoes dissected and cut in half.. but at the same time, so satisfying!
I'm a little late to the party but I must say, I am a sneakerhead and out of all the shoe related content on YT your channel is the one I watch videos all the way the through. Also, thank you for doing this video since I was really looking to cop a pair of these from a reseller but will now pass seeing as this shoe is made from recycled ice cream cartons and spray paint. Keep up the good work!
Shoes: exist
Scalpel: it’s free real estate
Yo this was so interesting, great stuff g
just coped a pair of jordan 1 stage hazes, the mud guards made of cracked leather, wondering what the quality is of it
super interesting!!! keep on doing! p.s. more new balance cuts :)
Can you do a video on the Adidas Five Ten Freeriders please? They're pretty much the no.1 mountain bike shoes. Thanks
the stockx ad after everything that just happened ☠️
Would love to see you cover one of the SP Dunks from 2020. CU1726-100, CU1726-101, & CU1727-100 are the SKUs. These dunks seem to have a much higher-quality leather than what we see today. Would make an interesting comparison to today's dunks.
Was wondering if you can review whites smokejumpers? Just found your channel. Great stuff man
Yessss cutting one of my favorite collabs in half, on my birthday no less
Sneakheads call $17 shoes “good leather”, “buttery”
You should check out the nike dunk x passport “workboot”. Would suit the theme of your channel plus the material choices are more durable in looks, but are they really..?
Also I’d love to see you do a dunk high and what your opinion is of them.
I forgot to mention it’s also pretty cheap to buy resale.
It would be really awesome if you could do a review on the Jordan 1 high 85´s. They are widely considered as a super high quality shoe with a really thick cut of real leather.
StockX so authentic they got sued by Nike for selling fakes...
Would you review the Nike SB "Orange Label" dunks? Aimed at "core" skaters, the leather quality is better fr what I've heard. Recent "light cognac" SB dunk low is a great candidate!
Oh wait, looks like you have a review of the "SB fog" colorway in the works?
you should open a gallery with all these dope shoes im sure every sneakerhead would like to see them first person.
I wonder if the recent Market drop on sneakers is all your work... HAHAHA.... Keep it up!!!!
I’d be curious to see you to tear apart one of Nike SB’s “Orange Label” Skateshop exclusive dunks. Look up the “Nike SB Dunk High Pro ISO Kentucky”, its resale is relatively low and the leather looks to be of a decent quality 👀
Channel and work like this keeps consumers like me grounded from becoming hype infused fuccbois. 100.
I'm certainly not a professional, but I wanted to ask what shoes last longer, which is made of natural products or those made of synthetic materials?
I can wait to see a
Jordan 1 Dior Cut in half
Cut open the yeezy foam runners
Also we share the same first names
