If I were Tom (I'm not sure how wealthy he really is) I would have kept all the ones that he got to sell on his own site, that he likely paid cost for in a warehouse somewhere, and then sold them at cost in a couple years. That would be a big FU to the collectors and price gougers.

Love the Sulphur colorway and I’m so glad I got them for only slightly above retail. Happy to hear such an in depth and technical review about these and also really glad you like them! Hopefully these will be way more comfy with the contours as AM1s make my arch and feet ache after just a few hours of wear. 😅

Thank you for keeping your videos honest and not bending for advertisers!

Love that these showed up in Kohls. Hope we get to see the re-sole video.

Your channel is so refreshing and brutally honest. Huge fan since your AF1 & J1 cutting video days. NB990v5 is one of my faves. NB 992 someday? Comfortable together with the Made in UK 577. More power to the channel!

I’m so glad you did a vid on these. I these these get my pick of sneaker of the year. Easily the best new model this year. It was awesome to see the contour in the midsole. I always felt like I sank down a bit in the heel and didn’t know why lol

Basically all sneakers are resoleable. While I appreciate big companies pushing repairability as a feature, there is nothing stopping people from having their cobbler put a fresh sole on their converse,vans,yeezys, keds, dunks, rick owens,etc. What would actually be cool is if they started providing original soles for use in repair. A lot of sneakerheads especially want to keep their shoes looking as original as possible, and providing the original materials could go a long way to encouraging resoling.

What's stopping people is that it wouldn't be worth the cost to put a fresh sole on a $50 pair of sneakers.

@TillmansFX

@@jakej722 Yeah absolutely! But there are plenty of sneakers that people pay way more for, whether its retail or resale, and I think it would be a more effective sustainability initiative to offer original materials for resoling than it is to make a one-off that isn't any more resolable than your average sneaker. Just my $0.02 though.

The upper needs to be durable enough to still have a decent amount of usable life left when the original sole wears out for a resole to be practical.

Hi I just found your channel and wanted to let you know that I really enjoy all the videos! Especially the historical ones really interest me as a historian

Dude, you have come a long way in your videos. You are the freaking shoe KING now. You do such a great job at these shoe/boot reviews. I just love watching your content. Really quality stuff. And you seem like a really good person too. Keep the quality content coming my dude. I love it 😻

It's wild, I was just thinking, "wow, I'm surprised Weston hasn't made a video on the GPS", and lo and behold, not even a day later, here it is! Great review as always, can't wait to receive mine!

Yes! I've been waiting for this video since the first drop! I LOVE mine.

5:18 the spit & tears had me dying 🤣

I LOVE the Tom Sach's stuff, it's all just so unique and I love em, amazing video like always dude!

I wanted these shoes badly, and failed to get them each time they were released, but after watching this I went ahead and got them second hand. Luckily this video did not skyrocket their market value. The arch support is unlike other Nikes. Thanks for this!

I appreciate you introducing us to the GPS, as I had no idea they even made them. Imagine my surprise of their “popularity” & Out of stock. 😅

Yess!! I’ve been waiting for this one!!

I have the Archives and a pair of the Studios on the way since the latest drop. This was a great video, I have liked and Subbed to see what those cobblers have to add for this.

Thank you for the thorough review. My wife and I have the brown GPS arriving soon.

You’re the man for doing this!! So excited

These are great. It's probably one of my favorite releases this year by nike. I was bummed out the first colorway release. However, the second colorway, I was able to walk into a kohls, try them on, and buy it. Great shoe to just beat up.

I can't wait to pick up a pair of fake Tom Sachs GPS for $32. I'll tune in for the comparo if you get your hands on some.

That was a thorough review. 👍 I like a lot of things about these shoes, but I don't like the blue tag and the black outsole. The outsole should be 100% beige, and the tag should just be the same as the most dominant shoe colour - in my opinion. 👟👌

Thanks for the video

Saw your video, went on market place, picked up a pair. Thanks pal.

You should do a breakdown on the Nike ACG Lowcates! See how they compare. They are also marketed as a sort of sneaker boot. ACG stands for All Condition Gear and they are much easier to get a hold of than the GPs

Ughhhh I forgot about it after it sold out but now I want it again 😫😫😫

I fell in love with old Polyeurathane midsoles recently so anything like that kind of cushioning I'm cool with.. compared to standard Eva more common these days

I'm kinda surprised he's so happy with the quality considering he already said it's bad leather with no grain

Can you do the a ma maniere Jordan 4s? Please? The material is so crazy and I would love to see your analysis on it. Love the videos.

hi Weston! Thank you very much for (another) interesting and informative video. I have been watching your stuff with pleasure as they are informative and very interesting for consumers. I wanted to ask if you could do a video on the latest Birkenstock boot - Birmingham. As it seems quite well and is hopefully properly made, however rather on the expensive side. In one of your videos you talked about Birkenstock cheating and selling boots for much more than they are really worth I wanted to get your opinion on the Birminghams.

I don't usually fall for Special Release shoes, but being a fan of Tom, I was keen to try a pair. Unfortunately the damn shoes are sold out before I can capture a pair.

The value priced Waffle Debut seems to be nearly identical to this. I just bought a pair for $59. It's funny that Weston says they're more boot-like because i really can't stand most sneakers and wear boots instead. I put these on and immediately loved the feel and yes, they do feel like Blundstone.

FYI: on the KZread TV APP, the sound is off from the video. Just a heads up! Great video as always!

They should make a high cut version. If so, I would be tempted to get a pair myself. Too late, resellers were quick to snatch them up, going for $300. If lucky, they will be released in Canada in a year, or six months.

There are many options from Vibram that work for resole, Freestone, New York, Newporter, Zegama, Siera, New Boulder or even Arctic Grip Christy Flat.

I’ve tried to wear Nike but usually they look cool but don’t function well. Brooks Beast is the most comfortable shoe I’ve ever owned. Makes all calf pain disappear.

Seeing this shoe’s construction reminds me of Nike ACG‘s shoes with „Trailframe“ like the ACG Lowcate. Firm but stable as hell and available to all of us.

Great video man! I love mine too!

I was able to get a pair of the new brown colorway that released on Tom Sachs website on the 6th. Anxious to see how they wear.

Got the Cream ones and the Yellow ones. I really love em. I am a sneakerhead who has all sorts of expensive pairs, but without a doubt these are my most worn pair of 2022

You should check out Andrew Turriff - he's from the boot biz and is in the process of designing a "functional outdoor shoe" using high quality leathers, stitchdown construction and vibram soles! Similar vibes to this but absolutely no corners cut.

I got emailed 3 hours after the first release for my W for these. Needless to say I had left for work by then. Anyway I would LOVE if you could do a review on the sneakersnstuff x Jordan 1 Mid. I swear the leather on these is insane, best I've seen, and they're cheap.

My Nike GPS - the Zegamas - brilliant from trails to the shops and even to church. ❤’em!

God after seeing this I would want one. My favorite home and at around the house and dog walking is the og sock based Vans ultrarange and is my go to. But damn did the GPS sold out instantly... I'll have to keep an eye on it for next time for sure!

Just checked with the online sites that I frequent and most resellers have already boosted the price up to over 400 dollars. General purpose has become an irony of its own.

Great and enjoyable video. I fail to see the purpose of a bottom that can be resoled while the upper itself is not really that durable. Expensive for what it is, too.

Funny, I'm wearing my pair today. Honestly, it's the Nike version of Rod Laver tennis shoes, but "resole-able". It's a shoe that's comfy, is easy to get looking crusty, and meant to look pretty good when it's crusty - just like Rod Lavers.

I love these videos .. Could you do a fear of god suede Chelsea Boot?

If you haven't already, I would love to see one of these videos about the Vans Goretex hightops that are marketed similarly to these

Good to see that you just sawed through the best variant of the GPS

The pull tabs are one of toms features also used on his other sneakers / clothing (nasa inspired) reason why they’re good

I’d love to see this shoe resoled. Great call!

Great break down RA. The soles come off easy BUT even easier to glue back up. Why send it to landfill just because it is using an eco glue?

The original Mars Yards had single stitches securing the straps down. This was replaced with a box stitch in the 2.0 to fix this problem, and now it's found its way into the GPS!

I was hesitant about liking this shoe but after getting the RoseAnvil blessing I really want this shoe now

I like this vid. Good insight.

Do the Nike ACG Lowcate next! I have a pair and love it so far. It seems like an alternative to the general purpose shoe and I like it for cold weather and commuting in the city. There's a "trailframe" in it, and I wonder how it you will like it compared to the GPS.

Lowcate‘s really have an amazing fit and stable built. Love em too.

Many folks work in factories on concrete and I think this could be the shoe for them as many don't like boots. But they would probably need to be leather ( Resoling is great but will material uppers last long enough to make resoling realistic.? . I think leather would. ) and probably a protective toe cap. Yes.. I like the arch support too and with Zero heel... even better. The wedge design especially on runners squish my toes... a feature I wish makers would drop.

Yo Mr. Anvil!! You should cut up and review Canada west boots!!! The moorby heritage line. Essentially the canadian red wing equivalent.

Can you please do the goretex Jordan 5s or goretex new balance or goretex hokas something goretex/sneaker to see if that’s a load of bs and if it’s a better alternative to a boot pleaseeeeee

Cool looking shoes - but even thinking about all the foam makes my feet sweat! All the graphics were fun!

I would love to see you breakdown the Fear Of God Nike shoes! I own a pair and really want to know exactly what I’m wearing

Lol the raindrop test editing 🤣

Very cool. Look forward to the collab if it happens

I genuinely love these, I want a pair for spring but I'm not paying three hundred fucking dollars for a pair. I hate sneaker head culture so much.

Interesting combination of a hiking boot sole and mesh upper 🤔. I wonder what kind of weather or climate are those intended for

What do you do with the cross-sectioned shoe? I’d love to purchase a half or both for display if I could.

I have the yellow pair, I’ve only worn them 4 times but I really like this shoe. Hopefully I can get the white pair on. Restock.

Hey Rose Anvil, can you review the CLB Air Force and the all white Colour of the Month All White Air Force 1? They both have nice leather but the price (resell) is quitte different.

Just ordered a pair in the new brown color way can't wait to get em on feet

It reminds me of the New Balance that I have. The sole logs are almost exactly the same in appearance. Does this mean Nike ripped on New Balance ?

Nike has some boots of their own, you could do a vid on some of them, per example Nike Manoa

Nike does not have to make money on colabs. They Treat colabs as loss leaders to build hype. Also there will be more color ways available in 2023, so the secondary prices will probably not go up.

Please check out the Nike presto utility, and do a deep dive on them. They are one of my favorite sneakers

We need a review of the OREE Infantry Boot. Just got a pair and they’ve been getting really good reviews online. Also they’re made by a fellow KZreadr

You should look into the Norda one running shoe.

Vibram makes soles for shoes like these, I've heard the 1443 zegama is pretty good

I also own a pair but let me just say these soles are not soft but I enjoy beating on them. I honestly really love that they got a second batch released at kohls hurting the possibility for resellers netting some type of profit. Hopefully that meant more people got them to enjoy the shoe!

I have a pair of the Studio Colorway. I love them. And I agree with pretty much everything that you said about these shoes.. The only thing that I would change about these shoes is the heel area. I would prefer a heal more like on the Nike Internationalist, or the Waffle One's. A heel that really locks your heel in, one that doesn't give you the heel slippage that these shoes do...

Dear Rose, will you consider cutting a mountain boots in half? Like AKU or Lowa?
