0:34
from kicks.com and I just picked up a a
0:37
pair of New Balance 247 or
0:40
247 and before I get into the shoe and
0:42
every the detail uh quickly um a lot of
0:46
companies are now like going back to
0:48
getting lighter shoes and and and more
0:51
comfortable and more casual and then
0:53
part of the problem is is because Adidas
0:55
has disrupted the market man like they
0:57
really Came Out Swinging with those and
1:00
these so every company now is like going
1:02
back to trying to correct their shoes
1:05
and then make sure they fit uh what the
1:07
trend is now and I feel like this is a
1:09
perfect representation of what I'm
1:10
talking about like when you look at U
1:13
the 247 it's supposed to be light
1:16
comfortable and and then it gives you
1:19
great cushioning with the new rev light
1:21
uh cushioning system from New Balance
1:24
and one thing I did was I I weigh the
1:26
Sho to trying to see how how much they
1:27
weighed compared to the nmds so I'm
1:30
going to put uh I'm going to put it down
1:31
here turn on the scale and put it on the
1:35
scale real quick so the shoe is about 11
1:38
oz all right that's the uh New Balance
1:41
247 put that down here and then put the
1:43
nmds over here the nmd is about uh 10 oz
1:48
so basically 1 oz difference which is
1:50
really not that big of a deal so now
1:54
shoe so it comes with a um
2:00
on the toe box and all
2:02
over and on the side panel you have some
2:05
new B overlays and uh the New Balance uh
2:10
logo here on the back you have your pool
2:13
tab for easy sleep on and the the the
2:16
construction around the neck of the shoe
2:19
is some kind of neoprene adaptive
2:21
material so you put your foot in there
2:23
it's going to be easy to put on and it
2:25
cushions your foot so it's let me touch
2:28
quick wow really the Dual density is
2:31
really nice and it's a combination of
2:33
mesh and some kind of neoprene and some
2:36
type of other fabric here and it has um
2:40
insoles with the New Balance logos on it
2:43
on the tongue here you got your new
2:44
balance this is pretty cool stuff man I
2:46
like to shoe it this is definitely going
2:47
to be a good one throat line and
2:50
extension on the tongue you have some
2:51
new bu and a mesh for good ventilation
2:56
and on the toolbx it's kind of cut a
2:58
little too narrow I tried a shoe on I
3:00
tried on a size 12 which is my size it
3:02
was too small so I had to go on extra
3:04
size uh I had to get a size 12 and a
3:08
13 all right so and then on the on the
3:11
out Sole and mid sole you have the Rev
3:13
light cushioning so that's like about
3:15
10% lighter than the Nike Luna Luna fo
3:19
and what it does is it spreads out the
3:20
energy and from the you running around
3:23
and pounding and all that you spread it
3:25
across the the foot so you don't have
3:28
one part of the the foot that's receive
3:30
all the the shars and it's it's really
3:34
light and it's nice cushioning and on
3:36
the bottom you have from exactal shapes
3:38
for traction at the 4 foot and near the
3:42
at the heel you have this kind of rough
3:46
material uh it's it's made it look like
3:49
sandpaper I don't know what that's
3:51
called but it's pretty
3:52
good man this is definitely going to
3:55
give the nmd some challenge I like it I
3:57
tried them on and they were super
3:58
comfortable so I highly recommend it new
4:01
balance is definitely doing a good job
4:03
trying to make sure the customer is is
4:06
is like satisfied so they're listening
4:08
you know and like I was saying you know
4:10
like a lot of these companies like new
4:11
balance and Nike and other brands are
4:13
going to try to do more more stuff like
4:16
this you know um trendy shoes lighter
4:20
and Casual where you can wear them on a
4:22
daily basis and they're cheap this is
4:25
$95 all right compared to the nmbs still
4:27
120 so I kind want to see what's going
4:30
to happen I think the nmd definitely has
4:32
some challenge now so we'll see now I'm
4:34
going to put put the shoes together and
4:36
you tell me which one you like the best
4:46
bers all right put them right next to
4:50
another okay it's kind of acting funny
4:52
right now which one do you like the best
4:55

4:57
quick I think they are both both dope
5:00

5:05
Aesthetics pretty much the same a new PR
