so i just got this package in from kicks world and i'm excited to check these shoes out
make sure that they're legit and explain everything to you guys on how this website works
because this is a very interesting one and if you didn't know by now my name is dj and this
is the dna show so let's go ahead and crack this box open so i can show you guys what i rented
oh based on the looks of the box and everything like that looking like it's legit so far let's go
ahead and crack these shoes open and see what we got inside you have three wipes right here this is
actually from kickswords and reshoevenator actually so these are reshubernator wipes
that come inside of the box when you order them then you have your return label for the shoes
right here you got your nike undefeated paper with your white paper classic like normal and then you
got the shoe oh you got the shoe so before we get started breaking down the sneakers i want to make
sure that we break down kicks world so you guys have an understanding on how it works and how i
even got these shoes in the first place kicksword is a monthly sneaker rental subscription website
there are four different tiers that you can rent your sneakers at level one allows access to one
sneaker two to two three two three and four to four and there are also dollar value limitations
to each level as well so you're gonna have to kind of figure out which one suits you the most for
example if you were to go level four use sneakers you would have a two thousand dollar maximum value
with four pairs of sneakers that you can rent per time at a month which is roughly around 500
value per sneaker which actually ain't that bad and aside from level one two
three and four you also have lightly worn sneakers or brand new sneakers and you have the option to
either rent used sneakers or new sneakers in this case i decided to go with a used pair of shoes
because i just wanted to see how used are they are they legit and how clean are they once i
got them and how dirty am i gonna get them and all those different things like that so hopefully that
gives you a slight understanding on the monthly rental service and how many sneakers you can rent
each month based on the level of sneakers that you decide to rent another additional thing that
i like about their website is they have a 15 retainer that you put in towards the monthly
fees if you decide that you like the sneaker and you want to keep it that will give you the market
value of it depending on the sneaker and they give you that 15 already towards that sneaker
that you're purchasing i completely understand renting sneakers is simply not for everybody
but at the same time i just wanted to check it out saying that i've been in the shoe game for all
these years and i've never really seen something like this actually come to life i figured why not
let's go ahead and see if it's really worth it if the shoes are legit that way i could show you guys
and let you guys make your decision as well so now let's go ahead and take a look at these sneakers
see how dirty or clean they are see if they're legit and then i'll talk about the positives and
negatives so starting with the outsole looking at the sneaker i can clearly see these have
definitely been worn the stars are starting to rub off on the front and the back end of the shoe
the rubber on the back end with the heel drag so you can definitely tell these have been worn a
good amount of times it looks like the sneaker has been cleaned on the inside and out i'm giving it a
smell test it has a fresh smell another thing that i do like about kicks world as well they
have collaborated with rejuvenators so every time a pair of sneakers have been worn and sent back
they then disinfect and clean the sneakers with rejuvenator to be prepared for the next customer
looking inside the insole and the stitching everything like that looks like it is a-okay
and ready to go i don't see any issues with the toe box or the perforations or anything like that
when it comes to stitching the materials feel good on the back end everything feels good on the front
end the tongue looks good the undefeated logo is straight copyright everything is perfect on there
your branding is good on the inside size tag looks good no mishaps with the printing or anything like
that yeah honestly everything looks straight and i have no problem saying that these sneakers are
legit and just based off of my first impression sounds like there's nothing to worry about i did
look into it a little bit more to see when it comes to the business and how they were able to
originally create their first set of inventory and how they source more sneakers in the future
and one big source that i've heard they got a lot of their sneakers from was places like stockx or
other authentic places maybe like stadium goods or flight club or something like that where they can
guarantee the authenticity of a sneaker so knowing that they have the backing when it comes to
cleaning the sneaker or the sourcing of purchasing the sneaker those two things are super huge when
it comes to building a business like this and i think that gives them a really solid foundation
and i'm excited to see how far this business can grow in the future now again like i said earlier
i'm not sure if this is built for every single person i know not everybody wants to rent sneakers
which we'll talk about a little bit later but again i definitely think there's a big audience
for this type of demographic so let's go ahead and unleash these things and try them on and then
we'll come back and i'll talk about who i think this website is built for who it may not really
fit to at all and if i'm gonna actually decide to get more shoes from them as well in the future
so after seeing the shoes on foot what do you guys think about them honestly this sneaker alone i the
reason why i picked them up is because i've been so on the fence about this shoe wasn't sure if
i wanted to cop it not exactly sure if i wanted in my collection if it was gonna look good with
outfits different things like that so after seeing them i feel like this is definitely a sneaker that
i probably would use just for a rental purpose and then send back and probably not end up purchasing
for my collection but i just don't see myself rocking it too often and i think that is one
reason why a lot of people may like this website they do like the shoe they want it enough just to
be able to rock it a couple times and then they just want to give it back they don't want to say
they have to purchase the sneaker and then stuck on the shoe and got to worry about selling it
and all those different things say you have kids and their shoe sizes are growing really fast and
by the end of the school year they're already wearing a different size shoe well now you can
use kicksword to actually rent the sneakers and you know monthly basis your kid is always going
to stay fresh and you're not going to be wasting a bunch of money trying to cop them kicks and
all those different things and then they're just going to grow out of them so i think one situation
like that definitely makes a lot of sense for a parent that wants to do something like that
now again i know not everybody has the budget to do something like that or everybody even wants
to do something like that but for the people that do i think it makes sense and speaking of sizing
and foot growing and everything like that when it comes to your shoe size sometimes you don't know
when it comes to the brand of the sneaker even yeezys they're very inconsistent when it comes
to sizing so if there's a yeezy in particular that you want or if you've never owned a yeezy before
but you want to try it on you want to see how it looks or how it feels or you know how you
want to rock it with your daily rotation i think this is another great option to use kicksword
because now you can see okay am i 11 or am i 11 and a half should i try a different size because
i thought it was a 10 and a half but really i needed 11 half and i had to go whole size up
because this shoe fits a little bit different than that one so instead of buying a pair of shoes
online and hoping that the shoe fits and then you get it and you try it on and it doesn't work and
then now you got to sell it or try to return it or all these different things and you're trying
to go get your grill and you don't know exactly how it fits i think this is the perfect option to
be able to try a grail sneaker or a more valuable sneaker that you've never you know owned before or
had it in that specific size or whatever now you could either return the sneaker and go purchase
it somewhere else or you already have your 15 retainer and then you could just buy the shoe
outright from kicks world now when it comes to getting rented sneakers right and do people say
this is are you fake flexing or whatever it may be you could potentially just need these for like
a photo shoot or for a high school graduation or you know a special event and you're like i just
need these sneakers for one time and one time only and i'm probably never gonna wear them again so it
makes sense if you're gonna go rent dress shoes or something like that i see this as the same
scenario so for me i don't have no problem with it other people may have a problem with it i get it
but at the end of the day i mean it is what it is so there's definitely a lot of angles and dynamics
and perspectives but at the end of the day it's gonna come down to you your pockets your decision
and what you want to do another funny one that i hear from a lot of people i will never buy you
shoes you're crazy why would you ever spend money or why would you ever purchase you sneakers that's
disgusting let me ask you a question have you never been to a bowling alley or a skating rink or
a you you already know where i'm going right there's places in this world that people have
rented shoes didn't realize it but then they want to talk about sneaker heads for buying used shoes
it's okay to do it i think it's fine i mean obviously clean the shoe out and everything
like that but at the end of the day buying your shoes not everybody can afford to buy the ds
ones or rent the ds ones or whatever it may be so don't ever let anybody shame you for that because
i'm gonna tell you right now when i first started my sneaker collection yes i had ds
shoes i was buying ds shoes but i was buying a lot of used shoes off of craigslist and facebook
and everything like that cleaning them up resell rocking them first reselling them and then going
on and building my collection that way so don't ever have no shame in your game so at the end of
the day my final verdict is yes i wanted to make sure that you guys had a complete understanding of
how this website works and i had to make sure that i felt completely 100 comfortable with the website
before i went and reached out to them to make sure that you guys had a discount code and all those
different things but now i like it i've done my research so with that being said just like other
things make sure you use the discount dna show i will also have a special link for you guys down
below in the description that will let them know that i sent you guys there that will give you an
additional 25 off of your first month so say for example you wanted to start with the basic pack
rent one pair of used sneakers now it's only like 40 something bucks so i think if you want to try
that honestly not that bad so with all that being said i hope this video was helpful i learned a lot
of things about the brand i hope you guys learned a lot of things about the brand and i'm excited to
see what other sneakers i can get from them in the future and i might try the process of purchasing
the shoes from them and seeing how all that works and explaining it all to you guys as well and
showing you guys this whole thing so i'll see you guys in another one all right y'all i'm out yo if
