These are my favorite hoop shoes I currently own next to the 34’s. Better than the KD 14, Zoom GT Cut, Curry 8, etc. I couldn’t love these anymore than I do! The bounce is unreal. The traction is sticky, even my Tatum PE with the translucent bottom. The extra Zoom cushion up front can’t be undersold: it’s insane if you play on your forefeet or when jumping! The materials hold your feet in place despite looking weird. You killed this review, as usual! I need a review for a shoe I’m looking for? You’re the first stop.
@@aydentran7107 I have wide feet but I always size TTS. These are no different. The 34’s fit a little more snug. I prefer the fit of the 36’s. Get your normal size and you’ll be good!
How does the cushion/bounce compare to the 34’s? Just ordered the 36’s and love how my 34’s felt, however my zoom unit popped in my 34’s so picked up a pair of these! They seem amazing! Can’t wait to start using them! These are elite!
Nike just started putting zoom strobel in their flagship golf shoes (Nike Air Zoom Victory Tour 2) and it feels amazing! Golf shoes usually are a pain by the end of the round (unless they are a sneaker version of golf shoes which is a trade off on traction). One bad thing is my airbag popped on my right or trail foot. Which is usually the foot that has the most torque on it and stays planted as you are moving towards your toe (so plant, twist, then finish with heel up movement) so I think that might be an issue. I am have a new pair shipped right now so hopefully it is a one off. But you are 100% right it's the greatest this ever best feeling golf shoes I've owned and I have had quite a few.
I actually really love the piston effect that the protruding airbag in the outsole provides. I felt super bouncy in the Super.Fly 2 if you guys remember that, and for someone who plays an athletic style of basketball I’m really looking forward to playing in these.
Hands down the best modern Air Jordan since the 34’s. The 36’s have everything I would want in a basketball shoe. I hope the keep the lenoweave upper, improve the double stack zoom air setup with having full length zoom strobel and a wider unlocked zoom air on the forefoot on the next one
Thanks for the great performance review, Chris has a sweet stroke! The more that I hear about these, the more that I am thinking that I need to grab a pair. Keep up the great work and content!
Is it just me or Nightwing has one the most cleanest jumpshots ever? Great performance review! I only buy shoes for basketball once they go on sale and I am definitely looking into buying Jordans that are for basketball.
Great review as usual. That teetering issue is going to make me pass this one up for my oldest hooper. 😀 She loved the 34 high & low too. I got her the 35 in bred and a white and red color way at the very end of last AAU season and she likes them so we'll stick with those a bit longer.
Thanks for this review, I really want a pair of 36s. I have the 34s and 35s and the 35s killed my ankles but the 34s felt awesome. I hope these are comfortable or at least don't cause pain in my ankles. Oh and b4 I forget I can't wait to get that shirt. I'm a 10000% foam head and I need this asap!!!
All my hoop shoes I have I literally make my decision off of watching your videos The details and the little things you talk about makes you to the best shoe review guy hands down 🙌🏽 keep going bro
Been waiting on this one, thank you once again. I agree, at first impressions I loved the 35, but after 2-3 wear i was dreading it. Everything else about the 35's was great, and Im hoping these are the answer to the 35 issues. Cant wait to hoop in these.
Salute and bless Yall another fantastic informative video Dope point guard reel Chris I said yeah he can play you look like a seasoned point too got that court confidence
Another great performance review!! I was eagerly anticipating this particular review for the Air Jordan 36 XXXVI model. I was on the fence with the upper material but, after your review, have me sold. Hoping to pick up the either the "Glory", unfortunately on resale, due to the solid rubber outsole or the upcoming "Psychic Energy" model in October. I have seen pictures of the "Psychic Energy" with both the clear outsoles and solid outsoles. Hoping for the solid outsoles. Nice to hear the traction is great on this model. The only modern Air Jordan models I have are the 28's, the 29's, and the 34's. Had and sold my 30's, most of my 31's, and 32's. Didn't even bother with the 33's and 35's. Thank you, once again, for the great review.
I saw a korean youtube channel cut the 36's in a half, the aclipse plate is actually a gimmick, because there is another internal midfoot shank plate on top of it. plus the outsole outline of zoom is not directly the zoom unit but the phylon. Outside all of that the shoes does work, so yeah, Jordan brand did great with their design.
I went from checking the lebron 19 to these. Watching your videos for reference material when making my decision for the next shoe to use. Thank you as always!!
Waiting for the Psychic Energy colorway, and testing a pair before I buy to see if I can live with the “wobble” I know I had a pair before that I hated for doing that. Not spending that much cash if everything about it doesn’t fit perfectly (for me)
Great review i love the 36 cant wait to see how the low will look and feel the 37 should be even lighter seeing how the OG 7 was so light as well i still believe we need Mike to do something to boost jordan brand commercial or be seen in the newest Jays the world is retro crazy for awhile now
Bro i had them for over a year and only hooped out door and they just now lost the tractions, its overall a good ass shoe and ive hooped in some good shoes just sad i never go to use them indoor
Great review, I agree with all except the issue with the protruding zoom unit, I think it works well to propel you forward and its super bouncy. Man I jumped so high!!!
Great review! Ordered the "First Light" colorway this morning for my son. He currently has the KD14s, but they are sliding all over the place (the opposite of the KD13s), so they are getting returned.
So excited to see this video today I’ve been waiting for the performance review because I actually might pick up a pair. I play in the Lebron 17s atm the “airforce” colourway like the one with the really nice leather tongue ☺️They are a little clunky but I don’t mind that. I have smaller ankles so they give me more support I find. I mean it’s all personal preference but I feel high tops definitely help with my support but it could just be a mental thing. I do agree with you 100% though with the 35s press they do fit differently because they kind of hurt my foot sometimes but it’s only in one pair I got the other pair seem to be fine although I don’t play as much in them.
Things to add on this shoe that I think are worth a mention. I purchased an 11 which is my "normal size" they were way too small and way too tight. Especially around the toe box. So I went up half a size to 11.5 - They are still tight , but they are loosening up and "breaking in" OK now. Cushioning is amazing. Weight is also amazing as mentioned in the video. Ascetically - I'm not impressed with the gold trim around the base on this color-way. As a player I get stuck in the paint quite a lot. after ONE session training the gold part got scuffed and scratched and was visibly noticeable.
I got mine recently. Had the pinky toe problem and I felt like the cushioning wasn't there. Felt like I was playing barefooted. Hopefully, nightwing is right and it will break in over time. I don't also feel the piston effect on that protruding forefoot. Will definitely try to play it again to see. Looks amazing though. Love my multicolors!
I bought these and they cut my toe. Debating on taking them back but I’m gonna give them another shot since it only happened to u once. They are pretty damn comfortable and light. That toe cut hurt and left me with a bloody toe
Great review...very indepth! This was like reading the manual but more fun :) Do people even read manuals anymore though...lol. Great job on your video :)
Nightwing is really draining those shots fr. Crossover, stutter step, behind the back, stepback, three. Butter. 👌🏽Didn't know bro got it like that. I'm impressed.
I went true to size and I find a thumb tick free space from my big toe to front part of the shoe. Anyone experienced this ? The initial fit feels good but this material si see trough and me wearing white socks as I am trying my "first light" colorway for the first time was so weird. Seeing my toes and this big space in front 🤔
I have the same exact pair and they also chewed up both of my pinky toes (blisters and everything). Wondering if it loosens up and is no longer an issue for you.
@Weartesters Please restock the 1988 air jordan 3 white cement t shirt and also the 1997 that you're wearing with foams i need that for my birthday. Thank you
anyone else experience a big issue with the insoles in this shoe? My left shoes insole seems slightly too big for the shoe and was bubbled up straight out the box in the back of the heel. It stabs me with every step, literally can't even wear these casually let alone hoop in them. It really sucks cause other than the insole defect they felt great ! Very supportive and lightweight. Wish I could use them.
@@VNeto94 my shoe has a defect where the insole doesn’t sit flat in the shoe. The heel cup in my left shoe has a part that pokes out and stabs my heel continuously. Hard to explain in words but basically the middle part of the heel cup is shaped like a V and pokes out where your heel rests. Even in thick basketball socks it hurts. I ended up replacing the insoles with the ones from my Nike Pegasus running shoes and I’ve been able to wear the shoes comfortably since doing so.
Loving the review! I feel proud to have one. I got these the day they came out and god damn, they’re so nice to wear. Comfiest basketball shoes I’ve worn in a long time. I’ve been wearing shoes from Adidas, Nike, New Balance etc and these are by far my favourite.

Damn nightwing really took a 185$ shoe outdoor just to get us a review. 😂 thanks man!! ✊🏻 been following since kobe v og days!
I bought these and i can only use them outside on asphalt, gonna put some protective spray on them though.
That is his job....
The editing and tunes in the B roll went so hard! Love the way the intro felt this vid💪🏼⚡️

He went to a basketball/shooting camp or whatever. He use to talk about it in early videos
Jordans are rarely on sale
Give it a few months and should be able to get these cheaper on 🐐 or stockx

Great as always Chris. I'm diggin the Luka's PE, might actually cop them

Great review bro! Jordan 36! History 8n the making!
The guru has spoken! Once again a very informative review!
Back to watching this review 🙏🏾
the shock the game looks dope
Pashoutout!
Bro i had them for over a year and only hooped out door and they just now lost the tractions, its overall a good ass shoe and ive hooped in some good shoes just sad i never go to use them indoor
I’m waiting on mine to be delivered, I’m so hyped to try them out
I don’t even buy shoes anymore, I’m just here to support the channel. Good job as always!
Good vid got the Jason Tatum PE review very light shoe,didn't put it to the ringer but seems to be a good basketball shoe
The edits when you were hooping were clean 🔥
Dope editing!!
Great review, I agree with all except the issue with the protruding zoom unit, I think it works well to propel you forward and its super bouncy. Man I jumped so high!!!

Nice shirt Chris and nice review
Im getting the psychic energy colorway 🔥🔥🔥
Very nice video 📹 Chris awesome 👌
PINKY TOE ISSUE - same here! Blisters all over. I guess I'm still breaking it in. Purchased true to size.
Any follow up? Got pinky issues too played twice same results. Love playing on these but the pinky issue
would this go away with half size up?
@@pingguerrero3336 nike elite socks did the trick for me. Or perhaps any dri fit socks will do.

Casually flexing the new tee 🔥🔥🔥
7:11 “you gotta make sure you tuck it in there…” cmon, man … 😂 🤣

Best shoes I've ever tested (6'8'', 220).

Antas Shock the game looks awesome，how does it preform
I have the same exact pair and they also chewed up both of my pinky toes (blisters and everything). Wondering if it loosens up and is no longer an issue for you.
Is it still chewing up your pinky toe ?
@@tgg9522 It's loosened up a bit but i'd recommend getting a half size up if you have a normal to wide foot.

Amazing performance review I can’t wait to see a Jordan 39 just cuz I love the 9’s and I’d like to see how they turn that into a hoop shoe.🍍
When I heard "bad boys," I automatically hit the like button 👍
Loving the review! I feel proud to have one.
I got these the day they came out and god damn, they’re so nice to wear.
Comfiest basketball shoes I’ve worn in a long time. I’ve been wearing shoes from Adidas, Nike, New Balance etc and these are by far my favourite.
Working at a footwear retailer, the protruding zoom units quite often weakens the outsole rubber and rips out. I would avoid and go for a discounted 35.
Should I cop these or the 35s?
Have you noticed a grip or traction difference within indoor courts when using XDR soles on PF editions vs. normal soles? I know you tend to get some shoes early by getting the PF editions. So, I was just curious.
Does anyone know if you can cut off that little piece of fabric with the Jordan logo (on the laces)? I have a hard time tying the shoe properly.
Same, I’m thinking of rerouting the lace through that part
I'm 38 and the greatest shoes I have ever worn were the Nike Air Zoom Hurache 2K4. Hope they get re-released.
