Nike doesn't care about improving its materials because people love buying this king of plastic shoes.
Its mad, I litereally dont know what to wear this summer when leather boots will be too hot. All of kicks now this plastic covered crap that make leg sweat like its in plastic bag
This channel made me despise big footwear brands even more than I did before and I love it
Another downside of using fake leather (or plastic “vegan” leather) is how non-eco friendly it is compared to real leather. One, because it’s usually made from plastic / PU which is worse for the environment in the production process and two, it just doesn’t last as long so you go through more pairs. Real leather can have its issues too with water consumption in the tanning process but nothing compared to the fake stuff. Real leather just lasts way longer and doesn’t end up in a landfill after a year.. just another reminder to watch out for greenwashing
high quality leather is for sure better than vegan leather for the environment but cheap leather is probably worse than vegan
I'm honestly blown away by the number of models Nike currently sells. I don't own any Nike's, but went to the website last week just to see if I was missing out on anything. I don't even know how I would go about deciding even I wanted a pair. Their "New and Featured" category for just men's footwear has over 200 models. 🤯
All made of 99% plastics and made by slaves who get paid pennies
No doubt. Compare that 'new' or even the new and upcoming drops list [141 items in men's alone] to the first Nike Air catalog insert from 1987 and add in all the non-air shoes they made that year, how many more women's and kid's versions and specialty items, the company is probably releasing at a scale of 1000 times what they were then. Particularly when factoring all the colorway variations. Original models today can release in a half dozen on the first day and tack on another half dozen a few months later. OG Air Max 1s you got 2 colorways.
nike is a money machine
For comfort try out the shoes that have react cushioning. Also if you have a Nike outlet near go into one. You can try on all the shoes you want since everything is out.
@@beneg417 from what i’ve heard ZoomX is far better, but i have only been able to try react and i have to agree it is really comfortable
I'm glad somebody is holding Nike accountable. Thanks Rose Anvil 🎉
Also, coming from a Mechanical Engineering background, these breakdowns of the construction and materials are so useful!
Really help understanding the quality and value but also if it's worth compromising when you like the design
Yeah sneakers are interesting because they’re inherently disposable. Lots of rich leather will outlive the sole, but still get thrown away.
@@MrLlama999 This is Asolo hiking boot company summed up. Great build quality of uppers, soles are complete shit and can't be resoled lol
I just bought a pair for 70$ so I’m glad they lowered the price
It would be awesome if you compared these blazers to the SB Blazer Mids or GT Blazers!
You should start a series where you compare a kids shoe to the adult version of the shoe. My Nephew just started playing bball & I realized for bball shoes, the kid versions are really lacking in technology. So I would love to see the comparisons between them.
I had a pair of blazers and I really like the way they look but they were like ovens on my feet in the summer and absolutely freezing in winter they were also pretty bad quality (fell apart after about a year) and just not really that comfy
Have a suede version for a second year already,its pretty comfortable and breathable.So i guess the moral of a story is to buy only suede versions and not "leather" ones
It was the opposite for me tbh. Mine were actually really comfortable and almost never made my feet feel hot or cold. But, I would say the material wasn’t that good. The leather wasn’t that strong on the outside so it had many noticeable scratches and some tears. I did feel comfy in the shoes though.
@@instant8117 Yes, I can agree with that. I bought them because I liked the looks but didnt expect much. I was surprised that they didnt get wet inside after walking through snow despite the holes on the side (I put waterproofing spray on them). Of course they are not as comfortable as Ultraboosts but its okay, even for a whole day. So its actually a shoe thats absolutely fine.
@@user-fu1vw5qh5lyeah i just ordered the suade zoom variant. Can't be any worse than this trash leather. Only £51 in Nike's end of season sale.
I genuinely wanna see more of these videos with every and all classic sneakers that are leather adidas superstars, stan smiths, puma clyde, etc
Been waiting on an update of this sneaker for so lonnnngggg
From an economics perspective this is a great example of 'Substitution rule' in consumer price inflation. The manufacturer decides rather than increase prices, because leathers are costing them more, they reduce quality of materials and charge the same. We've seen this more and more with processed food over the last decade. Ever notice some item you've eaten for years suddenly tastes uninspiring? Happens a lot in anything requiring grains like bread, cereal, confections and sweets. Especially now considering artificial sweeteners are dominating sugar for the same reasons....costs and inflation. In another decade it'll be hard to find a $100 shoe that isn't 100% artificial. And a Hostess cupcake will cost $20 and still taste like soy sucralose. They just won't stop..conjuring..currency. (shrugs)
Blazer SB is arguably better quality but lower in price ($85-95). Most come with (mediocre) suede upper and an insole with zoom air cushion at the heel.
At the end of the day, it's a vulcanized shoe. The point of failure is, if not at the leather upper, at the glued outsole. Wouldn't be a durable shoe even with good quality leather imo.
The upper suede parts of Last Resort AB VM001 High last way longer than SB so probably nikes skate line is worse than some new independent companies coming up
@@bubblegumcowboy468 Not sure if you can resole a vulcanized shoe though
Agreed, cup soles last so much longer.
I never thought I'd get sucked into videos about shoes, but here I am watching my 325th Rose Anvil video. Thanks for keeping these shoe companies honest. I've always liked vintage style shoes. Love Asics Onitsuka Tiger 81's but they went all vegan on me. Any vintage sneakers you'd recommend?
why did these become so popular out of nowhere? alot of people started to have these in my school but in a week they were all in very bad shape.
A lot of people are just Fashion Victims 😅
These are one of the closest things to Bruins for me
Y'all NEED to do a review on some vans half cabs
Hello! New to the channel and have learned a lot. Can you shoot a video about the disparity of sizes when it comes to quality footwear, mainly boots? I personally wear a size 17-18 and have never had luck with finding reputable brands that deliver quality products. I also thought having a monster boot would be a nice addition to your wall of halves!
yo nice video!!
Can you make a tear down vid about the nike blazer 77 jumbo too? (and compare with the normal ones?)
that would be cool
I know it's unlikely but it would be really cool if you did an episode on some Rick Owens leather shoes. They're some of my favorite shoes I own so it'd be cool to see how they're constructed
Ramones or geobaskets?
@@frojdpojken1214 Geobaskets preferably
Absolutely 💯
@@frojdpojken1214 Ramones. I like 'm but they're way overpriced, like everything Owens
Isn’t Rick selling a tanktop for 90 usd 😹😹😹
I would like to see a cut in half video of the SB version of the blazer, like you did with the dunks. The SB blazers are a way more premium sneaker imo, but they cost the same.
"more premium"
@@BeersAndBeatsPDX haha yeah. But they do fix some of the problems Weston mentions in the video.
They actually cost less lol
Finally, another sneaker video!
Thank you for your videos. I was about to buy a pair and with such poor quality, I won't. What is a better alternative for a similar style ?
Nice review!
Still love my Blazer high tops.....and I had them in HS in the '80s as well. Pretty sure the back tap was vinyl then too.
i have a 1980 pair, made in korea. the lining leather and heel are in fact fake lmao, so is the swoosh
Hey Weston. I want to get started in shoeshoemaking but i have no idea were to buy leather from.Can you recommend a website?
I got me a pair of GS Blazers (the kids size version) because it didn't have exposed foam on the tongue but had a fabric liner on the inside. Plus on the kid's version the "Nike" branding above the heel is stitched instead of printed.
I'm curious what else they changed compared to the adults' version. The kids version is also cheaper than the women's version, despite having overlapping sizes.
I have a pair of black blazers and after wearing them for a few months the plastic coating started separating from the leather and falling off on the toe of the shoe
review specifically the SB version, i'm interested, if there is any difference in durability between casual sub-model and SB
Hey Rose, I know we primarily do boots here but have you considered getting into leather jackets?
I'm actually just so into the hoodie you're wearing. It looks so fuzzy and cozy! What brand is it?
I switched from sneakers to leather boots and shoes because of how flimsy they are. I was tired of throwing away sneakers every 3 months.
Vans actually makes an even more durable, skateable version of the sk8 hi for about the same price as blazers without compromising the look and has a better insole than the 80 dollar sk8 hi
i love the og blazer, great in the gym too
For summer what do you recommend in Nike Blazer Low '77 By You shoes Suede or Canvas?
Which shoes are A and S grade leather according rose anvil ?
You should do a comparison with a sb blazer!
What is a high quality leather alternative to blazers?
Please can you cut open a Jordan 1 Zoom CMFT I can't find a cut open video of them anywhere and have been wondering for a while.
Hey just wanted to see if you would do something like this video with skateboarding shoes from skateboarding brands like es, etnies, fallen, lakai and DC? I’m really curious about the materials they use for their skate shoes
A whole exploration of the NB 990VX family would be fire!
Can you cut open and rate the leather on the Nike blazer mid premium women’s shoes in the color “proton dust/summit white”?
I have work the low top blazers every day for about 1.5 years now, and I gotta say they have held up very well. The only concern is the sole wearing down.
Agree had mine for a little over 2 years now still in decent shape
There is no way a vpn company advertises this much and actually has a good product.
How about the Blazer Mid Pro Club as that is the premium model? Any better?
Please cut some diadoras. The basket lineup is super interesting they have the “premium” mi basket used and then some lower grade models caked the magic basket. I’d love to see a comparison of their leather qualities as they’re the best Jordan competitor I’ve worn
Could you do a video on some of the best shoe brands you’ve found?
Is this also witth the Low one? I have blazor vintage anf Jumbos...Low thanks
Where can I buy an original Nike Blazer Mid 77?
Do a video on the straye logan paul shoes, it has a lot of leather, like suede, I would like to see what you think about them
I sure like to skate blazer SB mids. They're so thin but also padded somehow
I actually sent a pair of these back when they first released these a few years back due to the cheap/ faux leather. I purchased them due to the leather claim and was really pissed at the false description and deception that they were passing on to the consumer!! It was terrible and as I have said before, it’s funny that back in the day, you would not be caught dead in a pair of fake leather shoes!!! Just one of those things as a kid you did not want to be embarrassed by, cheap shoes!! Just the way it used to be!!! To be fair though, I have been tricked by adidas as well!! 100 % agree with your assessment!!
You should do a comparison of skate model vans vs the normal model vans
I wanted to buy a pair of blazers but I just hate leather liners. Real or fake.
Id love to see the Jordan 1 Lost and Found and compare that cracked leather to some of the others youve done
You should try doing this to a pair of Nike Vandal Highs and Vandal Lows. Older Nike shoes that were brought back a few years ago and the shoes were seen in the Terminator and Back to the Future movies.
At some point you guys should try to get your hands on the new CPFM Nike fleas, super curios what those are about
THANKS Rose Anvil, FOR your GREAT and HONEST WORK . THIS IS WHAT WE ALL NEED THANKYOU AGAIN, GOD BLESS 👍💯
Could you test out the new Nike SFB 6" Leather NSW boot ?
Do a review on the Asics Tiger Mexico 66
You should do the blazer jumbo they are an updated version of the Nike blazers
Slept on these for soooo long! Just picked up a pair of white ones with the red jumbo check 😤😊
try to get a pair of jordan 1 lost and founds. they just came out and the red leather is some of the best leather ive seen on an jordan 1, very thick, smooth and doesnt have that "fake" texture on it. And the white leather is interesting. the material has me conflicted, would be curious to see if it id real and how the cracking is made
Could you test the Blazer Jumbo?
You should compare them with the supreme sb blazers from this year
Nice video, please do puma suede next
Damn that subscriber count🎉
All of these sneaker vids make me wonder what's inside my leather J/Slides. I love them either way, but still!
You should do a review on the Nike Cortez
Yea
8:55 bro why do always cut the laces like it ain’t that hard to unlace them
I wanted a pair of these but now I'm not so sure.
I have Nike By You Blazers (custom) it seems that they use different (higher quality) leather
You should do a pair of nike court visions
Happy Thanksgiving everyone.
The ending was better than watching a Yule tide fire
You mean to tell me that I paid over a $100 bucks for some imitation leather from Nike with these blazers. I might as well went on a fake sneaker site to buy shoes if I knew I was getting bullshit quality from an authorized retailer SMDH! Great content Sir
I’ve always liked the look of Nike but not the price. As a teen in the 80s I always had Puma or Reebok. Then spent ten years in the Army where I ran every single day. You’d think I’d remember what shoes I used but I have no idea. The last three I had were Soucony and the newest are Sketchers. But the shoes I wear most are Clarks slip on mock moccasins that they don’t make any more.
Thanks for your service🫡
Why is this nike blazer more puncture resistant and ariats cowboy boots?
I always had an inclination that this has fake leather because my feet always hurt so bad and like you said not breathable
I've never understood sneaker heads. Most sneakers are cheaply made, don't last long, and are over priced. They might look nice but there is no substance.
I just like how they look.
You can make that argument about a lot of things people enjoy.
Are there any Nikes that are mostly leather?
Have you considered doing a long-term daily wear (even if not all day, every day) of some modern Nikes?
I haven't owned any Blazers, yet... but I do have a pair of Dunks, from before the hypebeasts turned them into something to backdoor and resell... and man, they've honestly held up nicely. The leather/not leather is shit quality, yet once I broke them in, they became a go-to after work shoe for me; very soft and pliable... a far cry from how they arrived.
I see the thumbnail and I'm like, oooh this won't end well
If you could recommend one retro high top sneaker what would you get? I was looking at getting either blazers or dunks (originals or sb) but after watching your videos on them I'm totally off them. Thanks
Do A Ma Maniere Jordan 4s! There is lots of people unsure if the material is suede, nubuck or premium leather. But everyone feels it is very premium for a Jordan. Would be a great video! Don't forget my shout out! Lol
Have any better alternatives for Nike?
Another thing anytime you gotta use a saw to cut thru a shoe it’s gotta be pretty tough
I love your videos! could you please check the lether quality on the nike court visions? I got a new pair of them and they are nice but I wonder how's the lether as they are the cheap alternative to the forces or dunks
Same crap leather
Of course they’re going to be more of the same Cheap. Why do you think that they’re made in China
@@dirtfarmer7472 true, but there are also good chinese products
@@jogurtterminator2035
Yes there is, 1 reason for that is that mfgs can’t get anyone to do hand work.
Fortress clothing can’t get their stuff made in the USA
Love the style of these. Goes with everything. Wish they came with a wider toe box.
100% agree with this.
Vans definitely fit more anatomically
Please make a video on golden goose sneakers
I'd love to see you cutting apart the sneakers from racer worldwide, I'm really curious about the quality
I have 2 Blazer Low. Vntge77 and Jumbo. They are Brand new. Hope they will Last some time
Do jordan 4 cut in half & history 🙏
very festive ending. thanks
You should do a Orange label SB Blazer!
I know there'd be issues with trademarks and all that, but I would love an exact 1:1 Blazer handmade by a leatherworker.
You need a sneaker customiser to rebuild you one. Nike lost a lawsuit against customisers as they have no right to tell you what to do with their product once its yours. As long as you use the sole there shouldn’t be any copyright issues that will stop you.
What could be a great Blazer alternative? I like the sleek, extremely narrow white high top leather silhouette, but my pair is starting to show its years. I wish Nike made an updated (or er... premium) version of the Mid 77s with all these issues addressed.
Maybe look for some SB Blazers? I think they are made out of a more durable suede since they're the skate models.
@@donlckwsk Those look like if Vans had produced the blazers. Not bad, unfortunately there doesn't seem to be anything in plain leather.
@@RedneckMonkey762 These are a solid alternative, unfortunately they're a bit wider and not as narrow as the Mid 77s
Rick Owens Ramones or Geobaskets if money isn't an issue
I think "the Crown Northhamton" makes a quality full grain, resolable Classic Basketball Sneaker.
We need this guy to design a shoe
I actually bought a pair of these and really regret it.
How come?
As always awesome breakdown!
Btw would you do breakdown of Saint Laurent boots? Maybe the Lukas or Wyatt model
It'd be interesting to see the level of quality for that hefty price tag (also they look super cool imo)
i like that Idea. Almost got their Jodphurs.
Would also be cool if he did high end dress such Carmina
