great video as always! is the gt cut 3 better than kd 17 though? Thanks haha..
Is there a video for best shoes for nurses, doctors etc., glad if you had one
I wanna see you hoop against Chris from Wear Testers
I’m pretty sure he’d slaughter me
Maybe at 300k subs or something 🤣
That really would be legit!!
@@FootDoctorZach LOL no need, a collab would be sick tho!
💀
Congrats on 200k
Thank you
Love your creative side doc! More designs and concepts from you soon!
That plastic in the forefoot is a real head-scratcher, very curious if Durant's PEs have the same setup.
I’d love to find out
@@FootDoctorZach same! 🤓
I think personally it’s meant to activate the zoom more, much like the flight plate system in the 28s and 29’s
But for forefoot cushion is counter productive, I’d rather have soft foam then a stiff plastic my feet is on
The best sneaker channel
Great update video Doc
Appreciate the effort and explanation. I wish they go back to kd14 setup I loved that shoe that strap was the best
That strap took me back to the 90's. Remember all the multi purpose training shoes. Griffey, Sanders, Jackson, huaraches. Good times!
Great update video Doc
Appreciate the effort and explanation. I wish they go back to kd14 setup I loved that shoe that strap was the best but a lower cut kd14
Loved the explanation with the cardboard! You are single-handedly improving people's foot health across the world! Thank you for everything you do!
I appreciate you
Congrats on 200k :D
Thanks!
Nice foot doctor ❤ always good reviews..
good stuff. maybe a crazy 8 review?
Hi, I want to ask you something: Giannis Immortality 3, One Take 5, Witness 8 or Puma Genetics?
Great work 👍
Honestly, kd 17 looked a lot better when you placed the kd 14s strap on them. Thay freak exoskeleton design thingy looks horrendous imo
Cap
I thought I was the only one that felt this way, these has to be the worst KD’sever
Got the Penny colorway and interestingly it feels super smooth and cosy to me. Far better than Ja1 oder Kobe 6 which I have also in rotation.
The lockdown and support is pretty bad though and the grip is not top tier in my experience.
Hey, doc! How about a list of hoop shoes that have AGGRESSIVE AND STABLE FLANGES/OUTRIGGERS?
As a widefooter myself, sometimes widefoot friendly shoes with wide footbeds and roomy uppers can accomodate my feet but unfortunately have very soft or very minimal outriggers.
I've noticed this when I gained weight and my shiftiness took a hit because when I would try to make aggressive sideways starts/stops, I would feel the lateral part of my shoes giving out.
I've ditched the KD16, LeBron 21, GT JUMP 2 (I've noticed Nike has completely gone away from giving us proper outriggers) and the 361 AG2 (accident waiting to happen).
I switched to the Anta GH4 (half size up because of narrow fit) because that's the first shoe I've seen in a long time with such a beefy outrigger. Had to painfully, PAINFULLY, break them in tho. BUT THE STABILITY ON THAT THING IS TOP NOTCH AND IT ALLOWS ME TO PLAY WITH MUCH MORE FREEDOM THAN MY PREVIOUS SHOES.
Since the GH4 is casically phased out, I'd like to have some other good recommendations for hoop shoes with decent cushion and that have normal-wide fit and a beefy outrigger.
Famujisneaker still has the GH 4s on sale for $95 only $90 with Weartesters discount code
Also you could try the new adidas Harden Vol 8s they have 1 of the widest forefoot bases and a nice flange with a tpu support piece made for exactly what you’re talking about, preventing that foam from giving way when you’re leaning and pushing off on it. If you want to stick with Anta again on Famuji they still have the KT 7s highs & lows Klay won the 2022 chip in these. They have incredible impact protection (GH 4 on steroids) and a gnarly outrigger.
@@allensmith9879what’s the wear tester discount code?
@@allensmith9879 GH4's are really tempting since they're just 54USD here in the PH but the joint on my big toe really doesn't want to handle that break in anymore. Even less when bought slightly used (2nd hand market is huge here).
Looking at the KT7's but afraid of the weight increase tho. Would you say the improvement in cushioning is worth the weight increase? Also wondering about the KT8 and KT9 since they're more readily available here.
biggest problem with all nike basketball shoes is that theyre too narrow and theyre not durable. all of them fit like kobes too narrow, low shaft and low midsole.
Do you have a basketball shoe guide or feature recommendations for a 13 year old with Osgood Schlatter and Severs Disease? What type of features or foot support should one look for in a basketball shoe? He is wearing the relief sandals around the house but the heel inserts don't really help him. He has grown about an inch in the last four weeks. Thanks.
14 was the best. No issues whatsoever with that year’s KD
I love the silhouette personally but I'm scared that my knees won't be able to handle the shank stroble. They would've been fine had they copy and pasted the 16's setup
Hey doc do you think you can get your hands on the eqlz 247. I’ve seen some reviewers talk about it but I only trust your videos 😭. Much love thanks !!
I’ve been trying to- can’t get my hands on an 11
Im planning of buying one and i have a plantar fasciitis and im using the move day insoles it is fit and good to play with.

Hello, I'm from Vietnam. I hope you can make a video review of liren 4 IV V2 low.
Us who wore zoom fly 5's for running may consider this shank as soft as butter
What's the best basketball shoes, in your opinion, for achilles tendonitis?
I'm currently wearing a pair of Jordan 12s.
My dear, a really important question greetings from Peru. I HAVE TO TAKE A REALLY IMPORTANT DECISSION beetwen the GIANNIS INMORTALITY 3 and the DAME CERTIFIED 2. What could be your suggestions because I really like the stetic of Giannis but I watch your video about the DAME and I also love it so I cant have a decission. IN GENERAL I WILL PLAY IN OUTDOOR BUT SOME TIMES INDOOR. I WAIT YOUR ANSWER THANK YOUUU ( I LIKE MORE THE DAME )
Great video bro. I have a question for you and i really need to know the right answer. I have ankle problems from playing ball and i have a mainly wide foot. Im a low to the ground player kind of like a draymond green playing style with a bit more shooting. I grew out of my kyrie 8s and need a new shoe. Whats your best recommendation for a new hoop shoe?
ua-cam.com/video/EwpMWqTD_Ok/v-deo.html
having problem pointed and giving the solution only a week after release is crazy
I think a lot about shoes
After years of people cutting straps off adidas shoes, maybe Nike should add some
I’d hire you to make the perfect wide footer shoe
Please do the spencer dinwiddie 2.0 ive been requesting since last week
Just opened them up
@@FootDoctorZach shii cant wait for the review 💪💪
yo could you compare the nike gt cut academy to the gt cut cross?
Yes
These are a GT Hustle 2 recycle
tall slender guys like KD and Giannas is going to have weird shoes. they are very narrow.
I feel like I’m losing my mind with people actually liking these , these are one of the worst KD’s ever and I’ve had many pair, maybe I’m going blind 🤷🏽♂️
It's probably the wide foot friendly fit, softer uppers, and the improved traction on the translucent outsole that's making people like them.
Otherwise it's pretty much a downgrade from the 16s.
Wish they would bring back the midsole set-up + traction of the 14s, remove the strap, and turn it into a low-top. Pretty much a 🐐 👟.
@@iskolaro1629 me personally I’ve never bought a shoe for comfort and traction , it’s been strictly for the look of them besides when I played ball so if that’s the reason why people are liking them I get it
Plastic in forefoot? Nike trying to destroy people feet. There's no other explanation. This shoe sux
Ohhh if these had that strap… 💯💯💯💯
Great update video Doc
Appreciate the effort and explanation. I wish they go back to kd14 setup I loved that shoe that strap was the best
