hey welcome to cow free kicks on this channel I review leather free sneakers only and this video is about an absolute mess of a shoe from Nike it is the Nike [Music] proa welcome to the channel if you've not seen one of my videos before I always look into five different categories when I review a pair of sneakers I think they're all really important when you're making that decision into buying a new pair of kicks and then at the end of the video I will give these Nike Pro meaners an overall rating out of five stars if you do like what you see as you're going along please do not forget to click the little thumbs up like button Below on your device and if you've not done so already whilst you're down there please do take time to subscribe to the channel so let's start this review off as I always do by checking these out on feet [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] currently available in five different colorways via the Nike app and website it's worth taking into consideration that these Nike Pro miners are part of Nike's entry level or budget range of sneakers we'll talk more about that price point towards the end of the video but do take it into consideration especially with their looks because they are a very basic looking shoe now the main talking point for this pair of sneakers is this incredibly chunky unnamed foam midsole unit it's got some little cutaways on it that run from the toe all the way to the heel and it's got a tiny bit of Nike branding towards the heel on the outside of the foot as well well kind of butts out towards the back of the shoe and then it's got a rocker like motion cut into it with like a wave detailing effect that you can see present on the out soole of the sneaker you can see the light hitting it with the undulations on this grided rubberized outsole that you get for these Nike Pro miners it is quite a pronounced rocker the shoe is quite High towards the toe and towards the heel as well so you get this rock emotion when you're walking which we'll talk more about in the comfort section the upper is very basic soft polyester detailing throughout the upper of the shoe it's very soft to the touch you've got TPU reinforcement around the toe box around the I stays for the laces you've got TPU Nike branding kind of average sized on the outside of the foot when you move towards the heel we've got like some synthetic leather heel tab detailing at the back and you move towards the inside of the foot and you've got a tiny Nike Swoosh branding on the inside not the biggest fan I don't know why they just don't double up on having the big swoosh branding and then at the top of the tongue you've also got some Nike branding as well but overall they're a very very basic shoe I really want to talk more now about their comfort where I want to put this massive rocker mid so to the test on my back door step [Music] not a massive fan of these looks wise because of just how chunky the overall look is and I'm really disappointed with them comfort-wise as well because despite the fact you've got huge amounts of FO midsole there's no responsive bounce back no give no energy return from it at all you can see from the step test I was putting a lot of pressure on it from toad to heel and I got absolutely nothing back and I'm really not a fan of the pronounced rocker motion that you get with the wave effect that you get through the middle of the mid soole and with the that it butts out at the rear and you've got a pronounced rocker at the front I just didn't enjoy the experience overall at all underneath my foot I was expecting some give and some bounce back from the fact you've got a huge amount of foam midsole but when you actually press it it's so dense it's so firm that there's just too much of it in my opinion to give you any return at all under foot now that that translates to comfort hopefully more Comfort on top of the foot because you've got nice phone detailing with his polyester upper but what they've done is because they've got such a huge stack height they've created a really low foot entry hole at the top it almost feels like you don't have them on properly you know if you'll squeeze your foot into a shoe and you push the back down this part here and you have to fish it out with your fingers CU it gets stuck it I had that feeling the whole time I had to constantly check to make sure that I had all of this on my foot properly because it just sits so low it almost feels like your foot is going to slip out at any minute I did enjoy the fact that I had that feeling coupled with the fact that it was dead underfoot now there is some nice foam detailing around that part so it did feel comfortable in that respect but just the ride height for me is all wrong it's got a nice foam tongue on it though and the rest of the shoe does offer a nice comfort and fitwise they're an absolute true fit I'm a true Nike size 10 lengthwise and they were perfect lengthwise and they do have a wider than average foot than toe box so they've got a wider than average foot in general a wider than average entry hole and toe box as well they are designed to be a walking shoe so they made them a little bit wider to be a little bit more comfortable and I've got slightly wider than average feet so I did find them okay in that respect but overall just an absolute mess of a shoe for me Comfort wise now I want to put them on the scales to show you how much they [Music] weigh coming in at 372 G per shoe I consider any sneaker below the 350 g mark to be lightweight anything below 300 G is frequeny lightweight and anything above 400 G you're talking about a heavyweight pair of kicks so coming in at 372 was a disappointment as well because there's no tradeoff for that additional weight if they were 372 and this huge stack height offered unreal Comfort I'd be like I don't mind the weight but right now considering they offer no comfort and I really don't like the way they look the weight is also an issue for me as well because they are going to be heavier than your average shoe when you're walking around in them and that for me does play into comfort as well now I want to talk about their breathability where I want to pump this upper full of smoke to see how breathable it [Music] is you can see from the smoke test that the smoke did Escape quite nicely from the toe box and areas of the middle of the foot as well but mainly from this well perforated tongue which you don't normally find on a pair of sneakers so it was nice to see that overall it's going to offer you good breathability but now we want to talk about their price now these come in at £64.99 which generally I'd be applauding because it is a very good price for a Brand New Pair of Shoes especially from a brand like Nike it's part of their budget range their entry level range do not expect to run a marathon in these even a 5k these are designed to be a walking shoe with this rock motion and everyday lifestyle walking shoe I personally would never buy a pair because I just don't think they work comfort-wise they're an absolute mess for me I just think they look too bland and I think they're too heavy they're only saved by the fact that they are breathable and they have a good price point but they're not going to get any more than two stars for that reason alone I just wouldn't recommend buying these I mean I could have given them one star to be honest if it was just all about Comfort which is my main concern when I'm buying a new Pro shoes and their looks but they do perform quite well in the breathability test and also they do have quite a nice entry level price point obviously if you are Keen buy a pair if you don't like them just send them back if you've liked what you've seen today please do not forget to give the video a thumbs up like before you leave drop any comments below you can also follow me on Instagram hopefully I'll see you again soon bye [Music]
