Seth DeMoor upcoming races shoe choice

Nah Seth is independent. If your paid by Nike you can’t say bad things about their shoes.

Who is going to race his virtual race that benefits The Brave like Gabe foundation?

He has the kids running the mile. Who is going to be the best runner? I say little Seth or Michael

“You’re “

I could be wrong but I think they're saying Kofuzi claims that he, himself, is paid by Nike

What? Why would Nike pay Kofuzi?!? Ridiculousness.

Until you can provide a link verifying this info, I'm going to have to assume you are mistaken.

WTFwould Nike be paying Konfuzied?

1. Little Seth (the kid has the "Eye of the Tiger")

2. Joseph (may let Little Seth win)

3. Michael -- DNF or DQ'd for cutting course

4. Henry -- DNS

Getting sent a shoe to review isn't the same as getting paid. Would love to see source where Kofuzi said that

Shoe reviewers generally "cooperate" with companies like Runningwarehouse.com.

SHOCK

Latest vid.

Nike Vaporfly.

But Seth, ASICS is lighter !?!?!?!?!?

Like I said, it'll be Vaporfly. Not brave enough for anything else

Guess I'm pretty much keeping this thread going now.

I was thinking about this that and the other.

If my granny had balls she'd be my grandad.

Of course it's the Vaporlfy, waste of breath saying it could have possibly been anything else.

(Is that a brand new pair because the pair he ran one race in at the last H/M is done?lolol)

Will true love run

I'm lost. What exactly is the point of this entire thread? Some dude on youtube isn't running a shoe you want them to run in? And this is a problem how exactly? Strange topic!

You're very excited about this, aren't you? Hardly shocking that he would race in a shoe that he's used many times and knows it works.

According to his Strava, his previous Vaporflys have 178 miles on them, so not surprising that he would get a new pair.

I like Seth, and watch 90% of his vlogs.

I was simply pointing out that despite all his talk of this shoe and that shoe being potentially his race shoe, that he would run in Vaporflys, and so I don't get why he hypes others as his race shoes when they obviously won't be.

Came back to the thread as I've been proved correct.

Also if you watch his vids, you'll know he's used atleast 3 different Vaporfly, but doesn't individually label them on Strava. So that 178 mile is across atleast 3/4 pairs.

Why does anyone care? It's seth. Hardly relevant in the running or ultra running world

In one of the 2 Kofuzi vids I've seen (so half of them) he says they pay him. Seth has enough eyes on him that it would be worthwhile for them. I don't actually know, but it's definitely not impossible.

Hiuh?!? You are saying the kofuzi bloke said Demoor is getting paid by Nike?!? Is that what you are saying? Link the source.

Didn't think I'd see this thread sort of resurface. I was saying Kofuzi claimed they paid him - Kofuzi himself. I've only seen a few minutes of Kofuzi, so I'm not aware of him claiming Nike pays SJD, but I'd guess he hasn't said that. I lean toward a post a couple above the one I'm quoting that suspects Nike doesn't grease Seth. That is very believable; I was far from thinking it was certain myself. I had, like most of the posters on the thread, noticed that he is unwavering in praise for their racing shoes. Watch the whole 'Carbon Matrix' and you'll see that there really is no other option in his mind. That is what got me even wildly speculating on whether he's paid for that opinion. That, and Kofuzi admitting he was (at the time time I watched that video - maybe he's not any more). All that proves is that Beaverton is willing to pay influencers even if they're not very fast.
