Big 3 5.0 Quick Pro my current fave but you got me thinking about the Kawhi 4s now. I'm tossing up between then and Jb2 while I wait for LeBron 21s to arrive
I’m 24 and I just started learning how to play basketball and I absolutely fell for it but I noticed that I couldn’t choose a good shoes every one I tried felt like I’m about to get my ankle twisted so this video really helps, you explained every detail you like in all these shoes which gave me a good idea how to choose a one! Thank you so much for sharing this video
I agree with the DVD2 having stiff upper particularly at the forefoot, but you won't even notice when playing. Traction and cushion are awesome for me.
Harden vol 8 I heard has lime the best toe support. I'm a guard and a coach that I know wears them alot and he says they're great. I was even considering wearing Adidas again.
the Kawhi is a big surprise, I haven't tried them but they just don't look like a performer at all. Aside from that all the picks look great, it's nice to see that you can't really go wrong with any of these picks
Don't know if you heard but Mizuno is getting back into the basketball shoe game and releasing a new basketball shoe later this year, the Mizuno Wave Transista. Hopefully it released in North America.
@@throwertex Oh really?! That’s interesting I recently got back into playing soccer and their cleats are absolutely amazing. Will definitely get them if they release basketball shoes.
i've been needing new hoop shoes all year but i'm waiting for the wow all city 12 encores and the kai 1 triple black. i'm curious if the encores will perform better than the wow 11s, i'd also wait for better colorways
U should do a top 10 on all the shoe that you can find as of right now in the market, maybe also adding ideal buy in price, so you can for example add great shoes like lebron 20s that are constantly on sale. Would really love to see something like that!
I‘m a Volleyball Player and for me the traction in all directions is top priority + cushion (bc of shin split), which of these would be better in this case?
tommy can i get your opinion?i'm saving up to buy 2pairs of basketball shoes,but the budget is super low. the 2 pairs that caught my attention is your review on the immortality 3 and precision 7. i live in the Philippines and our courts outdoor is super rough. budget shoes here is in the ₱2,700-₱3,500. I'm curious if it's a good idea to get the immo 3 and precision 7 as my first 2 pairs
@@TommyLiu4 thank you, i picked it at your 10 best budget shoes.i almost picked the immo 2. Then i saw your review and it was not worth it, save some more and you'll get an even greater shoe,Thanks
Hey Tommy, how would you compare the WoW 10 lows and the Liren 4 v2 (also lows)? I'm way farther from an elite player myself, but the Flying Dragon colorway on the Liren 4 is just so nice man. Always wanted to try the WoW 10 lows but IMHO the colorways are straight trash, only the highs have good colorways. I'm not looking to buy a plain neon shoe in a single color with zero design at all, and while I admit the Lakers away colorway is nice, I'm also a Lakers hater so I can't get caught rocking that unless I get it on sale 😂
Way of wade all city 12s, I got 2 pair the origin and the dna. The dna has more on the toe for the upper with the material but if you toe drag it could scuff. Great sneakers for a guard I love them.
Is squeaky really always good? Surely to make noise the shoe rubber must rub against the floor to squeak? Meaning the squeak comes from movement just before you stop?
Bought the Big 3 Quick Pro 5.0 about a month ago because of your reviews. Been amazing playing in them. Overall beyond solid performer. Wish I went down half a size cause the forefoot area is pretty wide. Might cop another pair or the Kawhi’s 👀
Would love to have that NB Kawhi 4 but it's too damn expensive here in our country. 275USD isn't for Filipinos. Got that 5.0 Quick Pro though, best shoe for me so far!
Hi Tommy, could you compare the traction and cushioning between the JB2, WoW 10 and Liren 4v2? I haven’t seen many other reviewers mentioning the traction or stability issues you faced on the JB2, but I trust your opinion the most.
@@TommyLiu4 ah alright, what specifically would you say the liren does better than the ac12? also which one would you say is bouncier? thanks and love the videos :)
Interested in the performance difference between Don Issue 6 and AE1. I have the 6 which are extremely light and comfortable but I haven’t had any luck getting the AE1.
I got the 16 and 17 KD's. He needs a nice black pair of the 17's. I liked the 16 so much I bought 2 pair. I was really looking to get pair the purple and black 16.
At the nike store i tried the kd 16s (half size down) couldn't even put my feet in there but the 17s fit perfect and if someones concerned about the solid rubber outsole it preformes just as good as the translucent
I hope you can make a series for best of all time and not just by year. This is assuming this rank is only for each year right? Because for some example, nova surge is better than gel burst 28, wow10 is better than allcity 12. Right?
@@BalloutDePaul Not similar to the AE 1, I think they’re quite different - court feel / weight. But those are both great performers, you should be good to go with either one!
What about the anta shockwave 5? I was expecting to see them on this list since the AC 12 was here. If they were on the list, where would they have been?
My guy whats good 💪🏼….would you choose the bb v2 over the two wxy v4? My favorite shoe right now is the V4 and im contemplating on getting another pair but wondering if the bb v2 are better.
Hey! Love it still they are a frequent rotation shoe for me. Objectively speaking none of its performance features will match up against these ones, as mentioned at the end. I love it but it’s technically not that good of a performer on paper…
I heard that certain colorways of kai 1 has semi translucent outsole and they say that traction is top tier right out of the box. Saw image of one colorway that has that outsole it was green and had amber colored outsole.
Disagree on the KD 17, not totally sold yet on the BB (but love the Kawhi 4 and Two WXY 4 by NB)...My list would be 5. WOW AC 12 4. LeBron 21 3. NB Two WXY 4 2. Kawhi 4 1. WOW 11 (but still love the 10 more)....I have three pairs of the Two WXY 4 and 2 pairs of the Kawhi 4...they are both amazing shoes

Yup for sure. Elite traction & cushion!
Kai 1s are so much fun to play in

If the LeBron 21 was released this year what number would it be on this list?

Wow 11 is crazy goooood 🔥
Was honestly surprised at how light the wade 11s were for their size, also book 1s have been surprisingly magnificent
Yes right?!
Tommy we still waiting on the Outdoor Review of WOW 11 !
Can we get your top ten of the 2020s or all time? Would be cool to see what shoes have survived the test of time
👌 Will do!
does the WOW son of flash perform as well as the shoes on this list?
Very close but not quite there, maybe around 10-ish.
How about the Li-Ning Gamma 1s? Should they be in the top 10? Cheers!
No ma ni for dat cheers 🙏 Maybe one day lol
None of these companies send you samples ? Can we as your subscribers request they do in your favor? Just a thought.
that was a beast of a burp
🍺
I bought LeBron Witness 8 the reason was the price of $68, although my old under armor seems to have better cushioning
Daaamn the kawhi 4? I’m just drooling over those now. Just picked up the Jordan 38 for the low too. I think I’m gonna have to cop those though
Good take Tommy!🎉
Btw what’s your take on new Wade 808 4?
Just got it today 😁 Let you know soon.
Would you rather get the all city 12 or the liren 4 v2? saw both of them at a lining store in china recently haha
Liren 4 V2 if I have to pick one but you know, no bad choice there. All City 12 Encore is amazing too I just started playing in it.

Hey, I think you can go for the Liren 4 V2 in that case. They’re pretty much equally as good.
@TommyLiu4 thanks. How would you rate step in comfort and cushion for each?

Not on this list.
Would love to have that NB Kawhi 4 but it's too damn expensive here in our country. 275USD isn't for Filipinos. Got that 5.0 Quick Pro though, best shoe for me so far!
Ah I see, yeah that’s way too much. You got the one that’s equally as good though!
Where can you order those? Tried searching footlocker to no avail. Lazada was no good either
