Both super cool shoes. Track 1's are almost a cyberized super futuristic take on Triple S. Having the Triple S, I think the tongue might be the same, if not, very similar. Have a pair of 1's but def want some 2's now. Great review!
Hey Tony, we got the same name! Thank you for your positive feedback! I'll keep in mind and keep producing high quality videos. And thanks a lot for the sub! Hope you have a wonderful day
Track 2's are simple and nice to wear with almost any outfit! The only downside is that it's not as popular as the Triple Ss, so some people wouldn't notice it's Balenciaga. Other than that, everything is in good shape. I'm glad you enjoyed the video and this Saturday, I'll be uploading Balenciaga boots vs Saint Laurent boots. Stay tuned!
Amazing comparison. Very in-depth and informative, and also thanks a lot for making such a rare piece of content on what is arguably a pretty niche topic (With it being on 1000 dollar designer shoes and not the Triple S, the by far most popular sneaker). Great job man! But wow, I can't get over the fact that they're now made in China. I would've never guessed. That's absolutely unacceptable with such an expensive piece of clothing from such a luxurious brand, and a complete deal breaker for me. How greedy can you be? As if Mr. Balenciaga wasn't rolling in his grave enough when Demna made his life's work into a meme factory. When the corpo heads decided that profits weren't high enough as is, and moved production to the land of slave labor, I bet Balenciaga wasn't just rolling, he was banging his head on his casket and ripping the last strands of hair on his head off.
Hi Tony ! I really want to cop some track v1 but as i’m a short guy, it will be really complicated for me to wear them (i think..) Nice video btw, really love this comparaison ! :)
Tony's Style Guide Unfortunately, I don’t have the luxury to purchase these sneakers but after watching this I’d definitely go with the track2 for the slimmer silhouette.
Tony's Style Guide If you’re still open for requests, I’d love to see an in-depth review on From the First boots, primarily the ENZO 40MM HARNESS ZIP BOOT - BLACK LEATHER and the LORENZO COMBAT BOOT - BLACK HI-SHINE LEATHER. Another brand review I’d love to see is Ankari Floruss.
Got it, thanks a lot for the input! I'll keep this in mind. To tell you the sad truth, I'm only doing this as part-time and as a small TH-camr, I would have to maximize my audience. So most times I try to find the brand that's more known to the general public :( I'm not sure when I would be able to accommodate your request, but I do have a list of brands that I keep an eye on. I'll add it and follow the above brands! Thank you again, Evan
These have been on my radar for 4 years, and I've finally just ordered a pair on Grailed. I've watched so many videos and I feel like the vast majority of people are just buying these because they're Balenciaga and don't know how to style them. The best fit in this video was the yellow ones with the longer loose pants with a break. These are not to be worn with skinny jeans or slim elastic cuff joggers imo. Whether cropped or long the proportions of these shoes really call for a loose/baggy pant.
@@TheSecondLoft What about a Track 2 in 2022? A bit late too? Are they coming out with another similar model, or what's close in style that won't look dated?
It’s not late at all bro I bought my first 4 pairs in the last 2 months I have people breaking their neck to look and compliment everytime I wear em. It’s just all about how you style them but they are still a statement piece!
Good stuff Tony. Not surprised that you decided to go with all black and white colorways for these Tracks. I’m 6’ and blind purchased the green, black, and white Track 1. I really liked how this colorway fused three shoes into one to make it really standout. Mainly bought this, so I could wear it for my work, when I’m visiting some construction sites lol
Hey again OwnD1, thanks a lot for watching my videos! Yes, I had to go with all black or all white haha. It's too hard for me to churn from simple colorways. Is it this one that you own? www.balenciaga.com/ca/track-shoes_cod11705393jn.html#/ca/men/shoes The shoes itself looks amazing. I would think that it's also easy to wear with because of its black upper body. I really like the design of it too. When I take a close look at it and see how everything is fused together, it's mesmerizing. Also, it's great that you've got that 6' height haha I wish I could be a bit taller to fit the shoe profile better. Agree with your take on these, although, I would honestly be scared to walk into a construction site with these LOL
Mine’s this colorway: m.saks.com/pd.jsp?site_refer=CSE_GGLPLA:Mens_Shoes:Balenciaga&gclid=Cj0KCQjwho7rBRDxARIsAJ5nhFrTJ3UENYkOcA5kGtnzKWn0ePmp8VLJZlThzYDQx3s349GvotccbP4aAlKkEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds&productCode=0400099324536 Big reason I got it is it visually looks rugged. We have a pretty casual dress code, so I can easily wear it in the office, walk through at my jobsites when the weather is fine, then maybe go out with it. I was also thinking about the white, blue, and orange colorway (one of the original Track colors). But since that colorway is just too loud for my work, I decided to go with my pick.
Btw, I’m thinking of getting a Dior Saddle bag, that’s either this one with white stitching (www.pinterest.com/pin/292945150759930915/) Or this one with black calf leather, all black stitching (www.pinterest.com/pin/690106342883188666/). Which one do you think it’ll be better, in your opinion? I know it’s a bit subtle difference, but you’re the guy when it comes to appreciate these finer details
I guess the only difference I can see is the tonal stitching. I do like bags without tonal stitching just because I can wear with any outfit. It'd mainly depend on which outfit you're going for, but if I'm looking for something subtle and minimal, I'd go for the one without stitching. Also, they seem to fit F/W vibe better. Tonal stitching is better for S/S when you just wear t-shirts and shorts imo
Depends on which style you’re going for. Triple S is not something I would personally buy but it’s not something that would be gone in the near future. It’s something like Alexander McQueen oversole
Thanks for the video, really helpful and comprehensive! But I always thought chunkier triple s or track will look huge on short people. So, I am thinking to buy track 2 because it looks smaller and slimmer. Although I like all three.
they have a yellow and purple pair of the track 2s on farfetch that has really caught my eye- have a pair of the white/red/grey 1s but I think I found my next grail
HAHA you're another Balenciaga addict. They do design a lot of nice stuff. The only thing I wish they improve on is reducing the number of colorways per design :( They release too many of them. What's your next grail?
I don't own the Triple S, but I've tried 39 on all three pairs (Triple S, Track 1, 2) and they all fit me. Keep in mind though, I'm not too picking on sizing so I usually wear 39 for most shoes.
Im a 9.5 US in running shoes. I tried the track 1s in a 41 eur and they fit tts more to the snug side. Do you think i could get away with a size 41 eur in the track 2s
i still dont understand why triple s would look good with short guys than track, triple s has a bigger profile right ? can you explain a little bit more
You forgot to mentioned that the track 1 lights up n comes with a usb if u press the track button u can change different lights & track 2 there’s no lights ?
Tony's Style Guide Dope Haven’t Worn Them Yet But My Birthday Is The 24Th Of This Month So I’m Gonna Style Em Right With Some Amiri’s & Off White Hoodie
Tony's Style Guide Trust me , Sometimes I’d rather be 5’6’’ lol And may I ask how many inches/cm they give you approximately ? Sorry for having so many questions
I don't get the point of making this controversial and asking if I'm anti China LOL If you prefer made in China over made in Italy for the same price, that's your preference. Nothing to do with who I am
The best review I’ve ever seen thank youuu that was so helpful!
OHHHHH Thank you so much!!! Huge motivation for me! I'm super happy that it was helpful for you :)
Really appreciate the amount of depth you went into comparing each shoe! Just got a pair of track 1s and am very happy with them.
Haha thank you! I will be uploading more in depth comparisons after New Years! Happy New Years
@@TheSecondLoft Will definitely be watching for em, much love man! Happy New Years to you as well!
The track 1s have grown on me a lot. Think I’ll get them instead of the track 2’s. Thank u bro
Tracks are always a great choice! Hope you enjoy your shoes 😀
Definitely 1’s
Ur mad underrated!! Very high quality videos, this helped me out! I probably will get the track 1s, thanks for your tips n stuff :-)
Glad I could help!
Very helpful, very informative, love your style Love your style of disseminating the information without being too long winded.

Very nice video! just ordered my track1s in triple black colourway! subscribed man!
The triple blacks are simple and clean 🔥🔥
Very informative review of each, definitely helpful for those looking to pick up a pair.
Thank you Evan! Were you looking to cop one? Also, please let me know if you have other sneakers you’d like me to review

Which one did u buy
Getting the Track 1 in the white/orange colourway tomorrow, sooo excited
Oh yea!! Those are soooo nice. Can be worn with so many different styles
Track 1s are better because its not open the 2s are open and thats a big L for me
That's a great point. The open holes of Track 2s can be a downfall.
Thanks for this awesome video
Thank you for your awesome comment! Happy to hear that you enjoyed the video.
Feel free to suggest if you have any other reviews you'd like to see!
Best video ever, very helpful 🌹🌹🌹
Tony, I really like your videos. I started watching when I needed help regarding SLP Wyatt 🤣
That's awesome! I'm glad you like them!!
I wanna get the track 2 but im TRUE 6.5 but I know they don’t come in half sizes, do you suggest I size down to 36 or size up to 37?
Love your video !
Thanks a lot! I'm super glad that my video was helpful 👍
Do you think buying a track 1 in 2022 is still okay 😅 ? Or do you have other pair recommendation ?
I think it’s a bit late tbh
@@TheSecondLoft What about a Track 2 in 2022? A bit late too? Are they coming out with another similar model, or what's close in style that won't look dated?

There are reports, midsoles of the TripleS in the long run the glue comes off in the toe area. Which model has less issues?
what a great video.instantly subscribed
Thank you so much!!!! Such an honour to hear that :)
Tony's Style Guide just followed you on instagram too, hope you grow up everywhere ❤️
Are the track 2's to cold for winter?

Bro said you could throw anything on with the Triple S?! Man times change so fast it’s crazy
the video is really good !
+1 🥶🥶
Thank you!! Glad to be helpful
Do you recommend to buy the Triple S in 2020? Im looking to buy the color way that you showed in your example (black with white and red)
Depends on which style you’re going for. Triple S is not something I would personally buy but it’s not something that would be gone in the near future. It’s something like Alexander McQueen oversole
Tony's Style Guide im just buying them cause I like them haha
Yeah then there shouldn’t be a problem. It’s a staple item. Look for the best discount though! There’s gonna be a lot
I love the tracks and triple S but I can't bring myself to fork out luxury dollars for products made in China.
Yeah, it's tough to think that you're paying that price for lower quality model :(
I just don't buy Balenciaga anymore because of this. The triple S made in China is terrible.
Pedro Paulo Amorim only the speed trainers are made in italy
@ Yeah, and their new Tyrex model.
@ I checked ssense, says its made in Italy. The new Zen sneakers are made in China.
I disagree on your sizing recommendation. I usually wear size 42.5 in jordans and 43 in yeezys, but I had to go for 42 in the track 1s
I where size 9.5 what size do you recommend to get?
hello, I know I'm really late for this video but between triple s and track which one is better?
I personally like the tracks more but it also depends on your style
Thanks for the video, really helpful and comprehensive! But I always thought chunkier triple s or track will look huge on short people. So, I am thinking to buy track 2 because it looks smaller and slimmer. Although I like all three.
Glad it was helpful!
Buddy does the sole inside Track and Track 2 is the same size.
Yep
By the way what size r u in track if compared other brands such Adidas or a Nike. Seem u have space in front. Thanks
if foot lenght 23cm. what size shoes balenciaga track 2?
If i am a 7.5 in yeezy 350 and 700 what size should i get in the track 1 a 39 ?
Tracks come slightly bigger than TTS. I would say 39 will be safe. Best thing is to try it since everyone's feet shape is different
in terms of weight, which one is lighter and more comfortable for walking?
Exact same inners
The triple s arent ugly. But at the same time it's all about how you wear them
Haha I call them ugly shoes, not because they’re actually ugly, it’s more like a category of shoes. Eg leather boots
Check google for ugly dad shoes and their name will appear
I wear 10.5 & prefer track 1 what size would you recommend?
I would go for size 10. They come a bit larger than TTS
they have a yellow and purple pair of the track 2s on farfetch that has really caught my eye- have a pair of the white/red/grey 1s but I think I found my next grail
HAHA you're another Balenciaga addict. They do design a lot of nice stuff. The only thing I wish they improve on is reducing the number of colorways per design :(
They release too many of them. What's your next grail?
Any chance the letters on the balenciaga track2 fall off or no.....!!?
Nope
May i know what is your size on Balenciaga Triple S? And also what size does Track 1 and Track 2 fits you?
I don't own the Triple S, but I've tried 39 on all three pairs (Triple S, Track 1, 2) and they all fit me. Keep in mind though, I'm not too picking on sizing so I usually wear 39 for most shoes.
At first I tot Track 2 was the older version,for me track 1 has the better looks
Im a 9.5 US in running shoes. I tried the track 1s in a 41 eur and they fit tts more to the snug side. Do you think i could get away with a size 41 eur in the track 2s
From my experience, track 1s and 2s have the exact same fitting for the inside. :)
now I know which one to buy!( track 1) thank you!
Good choice!
i still dont understand why triple s would look good with short guys than track, triple s has a bigger profile right ? can you explain a little bit more
You forgot to mentioned that the track 1 lights up n comes with a usb if u press the track button u can change different lights & track 2 there’s no lights ?
Track 1s have the LED version but the default ones (one that I've reviewed), don't have the lights
I wear size 10.5 should I go for a size 43 or 44???
If you wear a ten then your size should be 40 but I say go up a size to 41 since they do not make half size up.
I Just Brought The Green & Black Track 2’s
Great!! How do you like them so far?
Tony's Style Guide Dope Haven’t Worn Them Yet But My Birthday Is The 24Th Of This Month So I’m Gonna Style Em Right With Some Amiri’s & Off White Hoodie
I wear 42 for track1, should I get the same size for Track2 or 41?
I would go same size unless you feel tight/loos with 42
You kinda cool my guy. Mess wit the aesthetics
Thank you!!
So if I wear a size 46 I should get a size 46 or 45?
I would try one size down since it fits a bit loose but true to size also works if you tighten your laces
Tony's Style Guide thank you👌🏻
Hello I know I’m really late but which model gives you less height ?
I’m 6’6 and don’t want to be any taller to be honest lol
LOL you're like a whole foot taller than me :( Sorry to break it for you, but both have the exact same height :"(
Tony's Style Guide Trust me , Sometimes I’d rather be 5’6’’ lol
And may I ask how many inches/cm they give you approximately ?
Sorry for having so many questions
It’s almost 2 inches. I think I might’ve left the specs in the video.
Tony's Style Guide Thanks man appreciate it a lot !
How does the track 1 do in the rain? Can you step in puddles?
You could but you’re gonna get some water inside haha
@@TheSecondLoft oh gotcha lol
1 or 2 which has higher sole ?
They have the same height
@@TheSecondLoft thankss... sorry i want ask, the balenciaga branding in track 2 embroidery or printing ? Thanks
love both
Yeah they both are really nice pairs!!
You have a lot of Jawns
Haha, thank you for your comment!
There are many more on my wish list. Do you have anything in mind that you’d like me to review?
Track 2 are very very heavy got my first pair and Jesus
that review was fcking awesome
Haha thank you so much! :)
I got black tracks 1 they way better
bravo...
Thank you haha
Good guy
LOL Thank you sir
Are you anti China, i can't see the difference in made in Italy and China, i think made in China is better if there is a difference at all
I don't get the point of making this controversial and asking if I'm anti China LOL
If you prefer made in China over made in Italy for the same price, that's your preference. Nothing to do with who I am
I love you
Haha thank you, I love you too!
