Nike Shox Technology was one of the most exciting reveals Nike has ever done in their history as a innovative sportswear brand. It was suppose to be the follow up to their legendary Air technology. In fact, the history of Nike Shox dates back all the way to 1984. Nike designers like Bruce Kilgore (designer for the AF1) worked on the design for Shox for nearly 14 years! In this video we take a closer look at the history of Nike Shox and why it ultimately failed to capture the market like Nike Air did.

Shox were, and still are, my favorite athletic shoe design of all time. I've always been interested in shock absorber tech in general, so these shoes instantly appealed to me. Plus, the R4 design is just beautiful. My first pair were "Blue Spark" colored, and received more compliments than any other garment I've ever worn. I mention that only because it suggested that the design aesthetic had mass appeal. Personally, I think they were just a little too edgy for mass adoption.

I LOVE SHOX. At 40 years old, they were prescribed by my orthopedist to aid my mobility after meniscus issues in both knees. Without the shox, my knees would be done after 5 or 6 hours. Couldn't do my job. With the shox, I was able to complete my work day (12 hours), with strength and energy to spare. Shox changed my life and now I can't find them . I need a woman's size 6.5.

I own two pair of Nike FLIGHT shox. White/blue and White/red both pair are in excellent ( Mint ) condition. I keep them both in their original boxes. Brought them from dicks sporting goods for $29.99 each back around 2005. I've seen them reselling for $120-$250 in similar condition. I'm not interested in selling either pair. I wore one of each to the Young Money Concert Tour, I think that was 2010/2011. I was given backstage VIP tickets from a friend.

All my teammates were in awe when I showed up to the first practice rocking my new Nike Shox I was the only kid on the team with a pair. I scored 2 points that season in garbage time in a meaningless game, I never went out for the basketball team again

@BrockZagel 3 года назад

My sister bought me a pair of the Silver R4's from a Goodwill since I wear size 15 and can never find shoes in a store that big. They were the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned and lasted for a long time. I think one reason they were so comfortable for me was that the heel was higher than the toe (higher ratio than most shoes) and that took the pressure off the forefoot. LOVED them!

Yep....but anyway you can get any long harden brush and make a cool clean inside your shoxes springs.....but if you walk around anywhere in the countryside place with loose sticks and bushes...that opened springs sole could get trapped into any wood stick or plastic or metallic spring around...but it's worth to take good care of your shoxes always....walk always on safe places....flat pavement....anywhere flat 'round the city....

From Australia, I heard about Nike shox back in 2005 and was told that Ebay would be the best place to buy some. Got some TL3's and absolutely loved them. Nike's marketing of them was never good but they were so damn comfortable. Best sneaker I've ever had.

@pauldeyaeger Год назад

I drooled over these as a kid but never had enough money to buy them on my own. When I was 17 I bought a pair and they were my absolute favorite. I wore them so much the adhesive that attached the sole to the shox disintegrated. It was hard getting rid of them, I actually might have cried a little. They made me feel taller and faster like my feet were on little clouds. Breaks my heart they are $300 - $500 online now because I know I cant help myself, I will be rocking them again one day!

As a poor college kid back then, I worked my socks off earning pocket money to buy a pair of R4 as my first pair of Nike top of the line runners. Ran with it and ended up injured myself pretty bad. Still remember the doctor told me the shoes were not suitable for actual running due to the excessively tall heel and unstable design which caused my injury. I swore not to wear any Nike running shoes until 8 years later when they came out with Nike Lunar Trainer.

@georgeshaw4930 2 года назад

I still love them and still wear them! Wish I could find a place to replace the rubber (soles). The leather is in great shape. That is the only downfall on these shox is the thickness of the rubber in the heel areas!

Bought the R4 in London when they first got released at the beginning of the millennium. They weren’t cheap, I wouldn’t play basketball in them but they were great shoes. Very futuristic looking and conversation starters. I’d definitely buy them again today. As for some of these so-called sneakerheads, they’re starting to make me question a lot about them. Probably a bunch of resellers acting as sneakerheads. We wore everything from the OG Fila, Jordans and even the original Uptempos, never heard of anyone back then who didn’t wear their shoes because of resale value. Unheard of unless you were some nerd trying to make money off real sneakerheads. Some of the tastes with today’s lot are questionable.

Shox were crap. They were the most uncomfortable shoes. Felt like I was walking on concrete

Nike shox were the worst thing to ever hit the stores. They're ugly!

@kamilmusalat 4 года назад

Visionaire TV nah man, they were cool at the time, especially the VC ones and the slim Nike shoe runners just like ultraboost now or used to be because ultraboost start to look shit as well and we’ll be looking at them like at shox

Great video! The shox were dope. I still remember when VC jumped over the dude in the 2000 olympics that convinced me I could dunk if I had a pair 😂🤷🏽‍♂️👟

@NachoAverageFinds 4 года назад

Haha It was a huge boost for Shox

I think the year was 2003 when SHOX caught my eye . Always wanted the runners but the VC’s were the ones that caught my eye . I actually had 3 pair that I hooped in . I think if Nike would’ve reworked the technology or went the basketball route first it may have worked out better . If they EVER retro them somebody put me down for a pair or 2 ! The all black were my favorite, then it was the white with the red stitch and the white with the blue stitch !! Great shoe to hoop in , especially for me because I love high top basketball shoes! Great vlog episode.

I was the only one at my school to cop the OG BB4s. I actually went to the mall in the morning and went late to school just to get them. Nobody was even waiting in line. Nobody was hip til I got them. You should do the Nike Tuned Air

I had the Nike Shox lethal zoom back in like 06-07... as comfortable as they were around the foot, it gave me numerous shin splints

@NachoAverageFinds 4 года назад

Ahhh shin splits are the worst!

Dude, just call it like it was and is. EXPERIMENTAL. The aesthetic is not for everybody, it's for those experimenting in style and those experimenting in look for a shoe with a balanced response when jogging or just being active day to day. In terms of straight up '90s Nike nostalgia I'd go for the Nike Air Max 95. In those days I had a low top skate kind of Nike sneaker. Black with "bunny ears" on the toe. I challenge you to find the low tops for me because I wish I could see them again. Haven't seen them nor remembered their name or look since 1999. At the moment I'm looking for a pair of Nike Blazer in vintage style, not the new reissue crap. I used to have a true to original spec Blazer and I never gave them much a chance but nowadays I dig those sorts of sneakers and high tops.

@NachoAverageFinds 4 года назад

SPNKr Super experimental! Iconic. Nike really took some risks with the SHOXs. AM95 is my favorite air max of all time. Thanks for watching!!

@SPNKr16 4 года назад

@@NachoAverageFinds Your fave? Cool bro. I'm hopping onto JD shoes site right now because I was just told they carry them in the original colour theme. As I remember I kinda liked the Shox as a kid, but they were too funky and crazy for my taste. The "lower class" kids had them instead so it was instantly stigmatised in my area that ratty kids wear them. My immediate neighbourhood never donned em but it was an interesting time for sure.

@PedroPablo21 Год назад

I loved my Nike Shox VC 2 and the Shox NZ that had a brown leather look to them. They were the first shoes that weren't on discount that I was allowed to buy.

@shawnajoseph7515 Год назад

Shox were the most comfortable shoes that I've ever worn on a warehouse floor (the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn of all time were Reebok Zigzags or Brooklyn Kamiks snowboots) I worked in a huge warehouse at the time and had to walk and stand all day. I could walk and stand all day and my ankles as well as my knees felt soooo good all day too. The bottoms of my feet were never sore. So a AAA+ for health and comfort. I bought a pair of shox for my mom who just had to be out of work for months on disability because of her knee. She healed fasted and better because of the mercy shox gave to her knee while going to and through physical therapy.

I had the Markus Naslund's Nike Shox 45 back in 2005/2006 and they were 🔥 I got about 5 good years out of them. People used to come up and ask me questions about them all the time

@valjeanlee7060 4 года назад

I had two pair of Shox...one pair being the Vince Carter's...I loved them.

Shox will always be one of the biggest symbols of brazilian 00s street culture. This sneakers is a hit till this day here. That's why Neymar signed one last year.

@bodaciouscans 2 года назад

I was a pretty avid runner in the 00's. I owned one pair of Shox - attempted to run in them but they were not comfortable at all. I believe I still have those shoes stored somewhere at my parents house haha

@christopherbowen3922 4 года назад

Elementary and middle school I would always ask for NikeID shox for Christmas. Nothing better than going to school with brand new shox that had my name on them. Bought a pair of white NZ yesterday for nostalgic reasons and I still have that same feeling as when I was 10. Shox will grab people’s attention and everyone will love them or at least chuckle because I’m wearing shox in 2020

@alexthelizardking 4 года назад

Shox look like something you saw on back to the future 2.

@NachoAverageFinds 4 года назад

Haha yeah they still look futuristic right

@goranpuljak 4 года назад

I bought shox tl white a week ago. Always want it. In my opinion still in 2020 they look futuristic and something special. Very nice looking and very stable on feet. I totally love them. Many people give me like when i wear them...

@tghetto5 4 года назад

I had the VC 2's in red and black and they were the hardest shoes I've ever had to put on. Dude at the store said they loosen up after wearing them but after like 4 tries I gave up.

I thought these were some of the best hooping shoes ever made! I had the white and silver BB4s in 2001 and I have all the retro bb4s now. Great video, subscribed

@NachoAverageFinds 4 года назад

Thank you for the comment man. BB4s are epic for hooping. Appreciate the love 💪
