    As a foot doctor I look at basketball shoes and basketball sneaker technology a bit differently as I focus more on what foot types benefit from these shoes as well as the basketball shoe's functional attributes on the basketball court
    Some of the main areas we cover in this basketball shoe playtest, teardown and performance review are:
    The weight, durability, fit and playability
    What are the features of the insole, midsole, and outsole

    "What's up Doc?" Great video Dr. Zach, I like how thoroughly you describe the functionality of this shoe's design\components. In terms of its sectioned design, it reminds me of the Adidas P.O.D. 3.0, which was an underrated casual shoe.

    Hey Doc. I bought these for my 13 year old son. He loves the fit and feel. He sticks to the court. Problem is he has worn them only indoors for practice and games and the sole lasted 4 weeks before starting to peel off! Way too much money for a shoe that a 100 pound kid can pull the sole off of in a month of indoor use. This is not an isolated issue I have found.

  • @johnkctao
    @johnkctao Рік тому +17

    Trae Young's shoes are definitely customized for him, as there is no way you can get these on with an ankle brace unless you go up 2 sizes. The ankle area is so tight and there is a hard stop to how much the collar will stretch, once you get to that point it is a plastic loop. Tried it myself as I need braces on my left ankle, didn't work and I went half a size up already.

    Just copped a pair of these. I tried on the size 13 and that size was way too tight and narrow. However, I like how they looked so much that I went ahead and ordered a pair of size 14s straight from Adidas since Dicks Sporting goods didn’t have them that big. If they don’t fit good after running around with them for a little bit I’m just going to return them. I really liked the bouncy feel and these will be freakin awesome if the size 14 works for me. Adidas does recommend ordering a size bigger than your true size for these.

    I've used these to play tennis on hard courts for the past 6 months and have worked very well, especially because of my foot and knee injuries and the cushion provided by this shoe. The collar is very tight and results in discomfort after a couple of hours. Other than that it's a great shoe. Looking for something to replace them that is more suitable for tennis.

    Hi Dr Zach,
    I been wacthing your shoes' review for the last 2-3 months, i found your jumping skill has improved a lot,
    your jumping range is around 36-42cm recently. compared to last year 30-35 cm
    correct me if i am wrong.
    is it because all the shoes have better cushion? or you are getting stronger bro
    I am just curios, could you try your any old shoes, let say trea young 1, last year 33-34 cm vertical jump. now 42cm on Trea 2
