It seems all sneaker heads now hate the Military Blue 4s, which makes no sense, since the sneakers are almost spot on to 1989! The material is even better than previous retros! I guess it was too easy to cop for it be a great sneaker
Right. Jordan makes one of the most faithful retros EVER (color, shape, etc.), even the box still says “Military” (“Industrial” was only used in writing), makes them in abundance so that any and everyone can obtain them, and people are disappointed because of what? Such “disappointment” towards these is pretty dumb IMO.
The more Yeezies I get into my hands because of the sale that's going on, the more I'm getting impressed by the wild designs and technology team Yeezy brought to the table. Definitely a breath of fresh air compared all the stale re-issues and crap designs.
Yeah honestly if you take away the hype/controversy, most Yeezys are very well built and comfortable. Lots of funky designs. They tried something new and started a lot of trends.
6:10 it's not just the Boost, adidas is also nerfing Primeknit fabric since their Ultraboost 4.0 version. Now their cover fabric isn't anything like original Primeknit like they mention, its a cheap thin polyester layer over another one that doesn't have any comfort, durability and it burns your feet inside. Who else noticed that with Primeknit?
I was freaking disappointed at the lack of a 50th anniversary Adidas Superstar back in 2020. So much disrespect from Adidas towards an iconic silhouette. I remember how well they celebrated the 35th anniversary of shelltoes and I expected something similar, but they didn’t drop A SINGLE commemorative shoe. Still can’t figure out why
@@simoncaton1226 of course, but they could have just resumed the launch later given that’s such an iconic shoe. Instead, they didn’t even say a single word about it
Have to disagree with you there elliot, the 2024 J4 military blue (or whatever name you choose) is perfect. as someone who owns the 2012 release, the 2024 ones are by far more comfortable imo, and closer to the original in shape and colour. the greyish colour isnt even noticeable and still goes with everything. it was a retro, not 'reimagined,' so there is no 'story.' it's not really comparable to the reimagined series in this regard. the ONLY reason people think the j4 military blues are 'off' is because there were so many pairs released
@@drewleaguenz5654 3's are for fashion too, and they don't hurt your feet. You can also get zoom air 1's so you can have the look and the comfort. Obviously not as comfortable as a modern new balance, On, Ultraboost etc, but not bad.
Disappointing for me is every AJ4 after the SB4. I don’t understand why Nike and Jordan just wouldn’t make every AJ4 as comfortable as those, now that we know it’s possible.
But the ultra boosts arnt made specifically for running like the new balance 1080 and the rebel, and the invincible. Adidas has softer, lighter and bouncier foam called light strike
I really want to see adidas use there light strike pro tech in a lifestyle shoe. It is a way better foam then boost imo comparable to new balance fuel cell imo.
Having military blue in 1989 I love the OG colors. Gen z and younger millennials hated it, I get it. They\ still are amazing. The DNs are super comfy. I have the coconut milk color way and they \get tons of comments. The ultra boost looks like a Hoka or Allbird.
Why fix it if it ain't broken? Nobody has ever complained about Jordan 1 having the same design for almost 4 decades. It's called ultraBOOST for a reason, so obviously the only things that can be played around with is the upper part of the shoes rather than the midsole. In addition, energy return and cushioning are two completely opposite features that can never mix together unless each of them can compromise one another. You don't see a lamborghini or a ferrari running on thick low profile tyres and soft suspensions with maximum dampening effect, you don't see a bentley or rolls-royce being built primarily with carbon fibre for ultimate stiffness to reduce power loss. As an avid runner, I personally find the ultraboost light rather stiff, while the 5 and 5X have the perfect balance to provide decent propelling effect without being overly squeeshy. If you're looking for ultimate soft cushioning midsoles, just go for the invincible run or repetitor, but don't expect your run to be responsive.
Tbh I think Adidas needs to accept the OG Ultraboost’s spot in history and try something else. Similar to how the superstars, sambas, Gazelles and Campus shoes don’t change. But they are accepted as a lifestyle shoe that matches a style Orrrr the make it like the New Balance 990 series and only release a new edition every few years with big changes to keep it current.
I would choose Ultraboost over Hoka any day of the week. This new UB is like a combination of all the previous models. Maybe I’ll try them out sometime this year. As far as those shoes from Drake goes; they’re hideous.
Comfort compared to what? Try wearing vans or converse shoes for a few hours, AF1's will feel like pillows. Now if you walked around in some new balance 1080's they would feel like bricks.
Why get mad about boost/ultra boost with not making much innovation when Nike Air Max etc have been around much longer and they’re not getting the same criticism?🤔 boost works and I’d buy the original as it was now.
UB is better than Air/Vapormax, just doesn't have the Nike logo. The 1.0-5.0 were good and the 22 was perfect. The light is cool, but the 22 is perfect imo. But everyone wants "new look" and then adidas ruined it with the 5x. Air max ain't even that comfortable lol
Since Adidas try to make stuff with recycled materials it has gone down hill. Also it seems like they fired all their designers too...Their shoes since round 2020 looks ugly AF...They badly need someone who has been to a design school.
The militarys came out in 2006 & 2012 & 🤚🏾 i know I KNOW "🤓 well actually those didnt have nike air on the back" save it , thats a new gimmick Jordan brand uses to sell you on buying the same shoe a 3rd or 4th time
Elliot page, is Jordan and Nike the same, after all Jordan is just a collaboration between nike and Michael Jordan? Because there's an argument about it.
Tired of uncomfortable Nike retros... This old shoes are uncomfortable on feet, especially old Jordans n old airmax. If Nike need do some good retros, go Kobe line
Yeah, I’m an adidas guy and the marketing for Ultraboost is pretty bad. Like, I feel like you could genuinely market it as this comfy, long lasting, light as hell sneaker, but they’ll be discontinued to $70 soon enough bc Ultraboost doesn’t have that appeal it once had.
It seems all sneaker heads now hate the Military Blue 4s, which makes no sense, since the sneakers are almost spot on to 1989! The material is even better than previous retros! I guess it was too easy to cop for it be a great sneaker
In my opinion the materials are a huge disappointment, but I love the colorway.
If they had the Green SB 4s
scarcity they would be Sneaker of the Year 24 😅 even with their shitty confort
They hate it once they changed the name and it’s not reselling for much lol
why aj4 military get criticized when every other sneaker gets higher value being close to OG
Because people always complain, they make the OG’s shape, box, backtab.. da fu*k what they want? I
I have the jordan 4 military and I love them
The did the same thing with the aqua 8’s in 2016 with the damn “glitter”
People are just mad it was very accessible

Jordan makes one of the most faithful retros EVER (color, shape, etc.), even the box still says “Military” (“Industrial” was only used in writing), makes them in abundance so that any and everyone can obtain them, and people are disappointed because of what?

The Air Max Dawn, you have it under 2022, is the most comfortable Air Max that I have ever worn. The DN is not a comparison by any means.

At least they have real Primeknit in 350s, unlike these new Ultraboost fake Primekit models that burn your feet
@@marcop.525 yep! the downhil of ultra boost have been them getting rid of OG primeknit.

Honestly, I think Covid might have done something to that.
@@simoncaton1226 of course, but they could have just resumed the launch later given that’s such an iconic shoe. Instead, they didn’t even say a single word about it
The Nike DNs are solid, probably one of the most comfortable air maxes (which sadly isn't saying too much)
when you were measuring the rick owens vs jordan 1 highs at 4:35, why did the rick owens have "viewers" as a measurement?
Initially I was disappointed by the military blue but then they grew on me again

Nike as a whole been disappointing lately
So lazy with the designs and tech 🤦
@@bennyybuckets which company has more tech since they’re so lazy with the tech?
They don't live up to the standards they set for themselves anymore.
Jordan 4's (the most uncomfortable shoe I have ever worn, I don't get the hype), followed by Converse chucks, and Red Wing boots.
There for fashion not for comfortability
@@drewleaguenz5654 3's are for fashion too, and they don't hurt your feet. You can also get zoom air 1's so you can have the look and the comfort. Obviously not as comfortable as a modern new balance, On, Ultraboost etc, but not bad.
I love the nocta hot step 2 , the shoe is dope in both color ways so far 💯

Your reviewing the adidas ultraboost 5 as your a runner ?
Having military blue in 1989 I love the OG colors. Gen z and younger millennials hated it, I get it. They\ still are amazing. The DNs are super comfy. I have the coconut milk color way and they \get tons of comments. The ultra boost looks like a Hoka or Allbird.
I don’t hate them I got a pair and I love them
Respect for covering up the Nike swoosh on the black socks during the Ultraboost section 😂👍🏻. We see you 👀
Not sure if you got the Nike X Undercover Jun Takahashi Moc Flow shoes. It is the most UNCOMFORTABLE shoe ever.
Why fix it if it ain't broken? Nobody has ever complained about Jordan 1 having the same design for almost 4 decades.

The comfort for dunks, mids and jordan 3 retros
What do you think about the burnt sunrise sb dunks
Suggest some new balance shoes and Colourway
Where's the next Yeezy drop for the UK at? US and other regions getting new drops!
Tbh I think Adidas needs to accept the OG Ultraboost’s spot in history and try something else.

Orrrr the make it like the New Balance 990 series and only release a new edition every few years with big changes to keep it current.
Military blues retro’d fall 06 and I thought they were mid then too 🥶
Love the vids
What happened to the Zellerfeld Beluga Slide Review?
The reason why ultra boost hasn’t really changed is because it never needed to be
0:23 "this shoe sucks"
literally the best shoe of this year:
I would choose Ultraboost over Hoka any day of the week. This new UB is like a combination of all the previous models. Maybe I’ll try them out sometime this year.
As far as those shoes from Drake goes; they’re hideous.
LOVE THE VIDS ELLIOT!!!!!
Thanks for being real 👏🏽
I mean… the blues might be different because, i dunno… they are “industrial blue” hence the change in name.. 🤦🏻♂️
@4:21 average geobasket feel lmao
I love the Design of the black foamposite but they are so hard…
The af1s mid disappoint me. They look good, People say they are comfortable. But they are so heavy and they are like a brick in my feet.
Comfort compared to what? Try wearing vans or converse shoes for a few hours, AF1's will feel like pillows. Now if you walked around in some new balance 1080's they would feel like bricks.
The uncomfortable complaints can easily be fixed with a new insole
Why get mad about boost/ultra boost with not making much innovation when Nike Air Max etc have been around much longer and they’re not getting the same criticism?🤔 boost works and I’d buy the original as it was now.

Each Nike air sneaker has a different unit. Most boost units are the same. Boost and zoom air are way more comfortable however
Trying to hide that nike check with those ultraboosts...
I peeped it too.
The QC on the military blue 4s is also quite bad atleast on my pair
0 secs 0 views bro fell off
Grow up
😐

idk why ppl think this is funny

Did u hide your Nike logo sock at the adidas shoe 😂❤
Very educative video!
All the Super Poofy Colourways are an instant - HELL NO ! for Me

THE MILITRAY BLUES?! 😮
New Balance is more especial, good colabs with good comfort
7:04 The tucked in swoosh on the black socks man 😂
That’s why Nike has 60 day return
Absolutely right on those military blues 0:35 mfs uncomfortable af got rid of my pair
The militarys came out in 2006 & 2012 & 🤚🏾 i know I KNOW "🤓 well actually those didnt have nike air on the back" save it , thats a new gimmick Jordan brand uses to sell you on buying the same shoe a 3rd or 4th time
I like my Air Max DN's. Daily mine TBH
Ngl Jordans feel so overdone to me like I’m tired of seeing them
The dj khaled 5s are probably one of the most disappointing pairs I have had in the past few years
Bro please review new balance more v5
Love ur videos
Those drake shoes remind me of Lugz
Ultraboost 5 is not a disappointment.
Elliot page, is Jordan and Nike the same, after all Jordan is just a collaboration between nike and Michael Jordan?
Because there's an argument about it.
Why wouldn’t they be? Jordan is a brand, owned by Nike. MJ is somewhat involved designing the numbered models, but that’s about it.
bro has beef with UB...
Bro spitting FACTS
HOLY 1989 j4 blue the best
Tired of uncomfortable Nike retros... This old shoes are uncomfortable on feet, especially old Jordans n old airmax. If Nike need do some good retros, go Kobe line
W gang🔥
hi elliot 👋🏿
Who would’ve thought that both Elliot pages would just be chicks in disguise
Nike socks 🧦 with ultraboost?😅
🤫
Funny how many NIke shoes are in this
Stopped watching when military blue 4’s were the first shoe L
When it’s heavy it is durable and robust. It also develop your muscles at your feet that’s why it is uncomfortable at the first time.
4DFWD technology is basically the upgrade from BOOST
Yeah but imagine stepping in dog shit with them, its game over.
to me the ultraboost 5X looks better than the regular 5
Nike is dead to me 😂
Yeah, I’m an adidas guy and the marketing for Ultraboost is pretty bad. Like, I feel like you could genuinely market it as this comfy, long lasting, light as hell sneaker, but they’ll be discontinued to $70 soon enough bc Ultraboost doesn’t have that appeal it once had.
Yoooooo
