It’s definitely not like the old pair that tightens all around your foot/ankle but my pair seems to pump up the tongue of the shoe just a little. I wish it was like the OG pump but I’m still happy to have them. Thanks for watching.
I did not see you mention that the Pumps on Reebok shoes these days hardly ever work. If they do, it's not like the original ones which you could actually feel working. These pumps are more or less just for looks, which is unfortunate. Also, the 'hexilite' in the bottom is not soft and cushion-y like the originals. I had to buy these on StockX myself ... I am beginning to hate that site because it's impossible to cop any decent shoes these days. I never had a problem pre-pandemic but now, it seems like even average shoes are coming up as an L on the release. It's a shame ... sneaker companies are favouring the resellers.
Got these fire pair of kicks as well. I consider this to be my holy grail, (not because of Dee Brown's dunk, but because of John Cena) and was beyond happy when I finally got them. Great review; and here's a sub to you, my friend. Cheers
This shoes are simply fire! I love 90s rebook and this one is such a classic icon! And your review man is great, an honest point of view about everything. I’m happy that I’ve found this channel! Keep going man!
I would suggest going true to size in these. If a 10 is what you normally wear then I would get these in that size. These fit a little roomy in the toe area which is a plus in my opinion but still aren’t so big that you should go down.
I don’t even blame ya for going the stockx route because these are a must have for any collector! Definitely one of my favorite release so far this year! Thanks for watching! 👍🏽
I really like these shoes. The leather quality is pretty nice for this price point. The only complaint I’ve seen from everyone is the pump doesn’t work as well as the OG pair.
I picked this pair plus a pair each from the recent Kamikaze 2 colors. I mean yeah... I like Air Jordan and all, but when it comes to classic sneakers... Reebok are though to beat and IMHO have way better designs compared to AJ especially the further you go with Jordan, or should I say after 13 - the designs are questionable and cringe a bit for my taste. Compared to my 2 Omni Light pairs and the Shaq Attaq I have - the pump system is about the same. It does the job around the mid foot portion, but of course it does not come close to the original. When it comes to this gimmick though, my Nike Air Command (Billy Hoyle) have a batter pump system that actually works decently.
Buenas tardes yo soy de colombia y quiero comprar un par de Reybok delas del anuncio si ustedes me pueden ayudar a informarme cuánto balen y como ago para comprarlas mi número de la punta del dedo mayor al talón es de 27.5 centímetros les quedó muy agradecido si me pueden ayudar a comprarlas gracias
Nike better drop the last 2 pump shoes they made in 91&92 and the quality&tech better be dope and true to the OG NO EXCUSES if Reebok can do this than Nike can as well.
Facts! I would like to see those release too. I hope Nike and Jordan are paying attention to these other brands. Reebok is really going the extra mile with these types of releases.
@@DancyTV I actually missed out myself, and don't even know if they released in England, so I copped a pair from new York and had them ship it over the Atlantic. I do see them up on ebay now, in a few different colourways. The billy hoyle colourway will always be the best though imho, although the teal/jade? Colourway looks really nice also. I keep looking out for an original force 180 pump so I can do a sole swap, but have never seen one in my size as of yet.👍
Great video bro, oh man as soon as I saw this I turned in to that teenager in the 90s. Im waiting on my pair can't wait to see them in hand. It's crazy I think I've been more excited about all the true retroes coming out then some of the new stuff respectfully of course. Dope video bro 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Appreciate it! Man as soon as I saw these on the release calendar I was so excited! I’m feeling the same way about retros right now... I’m so much more hyped about releases like these or the Ken Griffey’s that just dropped. We get so many Jordan’s and yeezys that it’s nice to see something different. You won’t be disappointed in these ... the leather is actually pretty good.
I was bummed I missed out on Reebok’s site. I didn’t know they dropped on midnight... at work, that morning checking out other sites, & I hit on Champs Sports!! I’m pumped (*pun intended) & can’t wait ‘til they come in. I’m definitely gonna swap out the laces for white joints
This is my first pair of pumps. I can honestly say out of the box when you first put them on, they’re the most comfortable feeling show I’ve purchased this year. Now let me explain, im not saying it’s the most comfortable shoe out there but, material wise and how it feels around my foot is great. They’re a little roomy and the leather is soft and forgiving. The pump “works” on mine as it does pump the tongue of the shoe slightly and the valve does release the pressure BUT, it doesn’t feel like what I remember the OG was. The OG use to pump and you could feel the pressure around your ankle but in these it’s not like that. I hope that helps ... I still think these are a must have for any collector.... honestly one of my fav drops this year.
Thanks! Yeah this release was actually a little harder than I anticipated. I really wish people would stop copping for resell but I guess that’s how it goes these days. Glad you were able to grab a pair at least ... these are a must have for any collector. 👍🏽
I like the fit on these better. The question fits just a little short and narrow in the toe, while these fit more true to size and wider in the toe area. Hope that helps ... thanks for watching!
Real talk, I only know about these cause of John Cena. use to rep these every week. I feel you on that bull$#!+ resale price, didn't wanna do it but I had to drop $240 for my pair......couldn't miss these again though
Yeah the resale is single handedly making every release more difficult and taking the excitement out of obtaining the shoes. I don’t blame ya going the resale route though because these are a must have in my opinion. Thanks for watching! 👍🏽
Facts! I want all the 90s shoes to come back! I started looking into some la gears awhile ago and they actually still sell some on their web site BUT, they are a little more modern and not exactly like the old school ones.
@@DancyTV lets see if LA gear will give us the LA techs with the OG colorway . I believe they were white black grey n pink. To see that colorway you have to type up LA gear from 1991-1993 that’s when they came out
Yo I try to buy them online and besides being hard they were asking to much so Could not get them then last Friday I was on Somerville , MA taking my daughter to Lego land I saw next to it a Reebok Outlet Store I was like let me try but with low hopes so I look at the entire store like 3 times hoping to see them and they were not there so I was walking out the store and this girl at the register ask me can I help with something and I was like well I am looking for the Omni pump 2 and she look at me and say what is your size and I froze like subzero for a 1 and then say 10.5 and she respond no way I actually have one they return on the back , and I was like your sure and she say yes I don’t know why they returned it I would resale it and smile so much and then when I saw the box and open it it was amazing moment I wish I would it recorded bro that girl make my day and when I ask for the price she say retail $ 140 so I went like can I try it then they look beautiful then she say that she had them when she was 7 years old so it was destiny bro True facts
Wow! You found them at a Reebok outlet! That’s great luck! I usually stop at the outlet too and every once in a while you will find some gems. I picked up a pair of the Reebok Frank Thomas big hurt shoes a few years ago at the outlet. Thanks for watching!
