Nike Zoom Freak 5: Ugly But Effective?

In this video we go over the Nike Zoom Freak 5:
Although the underfoot cushion is a little bit of a downgrade from the Zoom Freak 4, the softness and responsiveness from the midsole are still sufficient. Traction works very well and dust pick up is not an issue. Nike maintained the low top, big swoosh and lightweight characteristics of the Zoom Freak line on this model, and lockdown from the lace closure is very good. Despite the lack of technology and premium materials, it’s also hard to hate on this shoe since there is no significant downside. The Zoom Freak 5 fits snug going true to size, so you can either go TTS or half size up, not recommended if you have really wide feet.

which is better shoes precision 6 or big 3 4.0 quick?
Hey Tommy do you know why the forefoot zoom unit causes me pain?
always coming in clutch with the instant reviews of the new shoes 🙏
appreciate you watching!!
Do they fit actual size or should you go a size up
@@seanbonds4516i dont have them but people say that theyre true to size but that they have a narrow toebox so if u have wider feet go half a size up
This colorway looks wayyy better than the other one (green & red)…
I agree lol
Guchi bru😂
💯
You seen the colorway that’s all black with a fully white swoosh? Or the EVa ones for giannis PE for his daughter? All hot pink even the soles except an all white swoosh. I find those to be ironically some of the dopest looking shoes around! A colorway sometimes makes all the difference!
Now you can customize them and make some lit ahhh shoes
My son was invited by Nike to have training camp here in Manila with Giannis. He got free pair of Nike Zoom Freak 5 with that colorway. Tomorrow he may have a a verdict how it perform in both outdoor and indoor.
The Zoom Freak line has been to me quite polarizing. They've done some awesome and innovative things as far as with some of their shoes, but even if so, they've just each lacked for their own reason, with one not really seeming to be a consistent shoe, nor signature line. (Maybe the Freak 4 is the closest thing as far as overall consistency.) But the fact that they've never used a shank plate, or something carbon fiber for a Giannis shoe is beyond me. And the fact that they don't incorporate a better cushioning setup for a shoe that's trying to have more court feel surprises me (and in general as a whole, see the whole CP3 line when they used to have Cushlon as a predominant cushioning setup and was successful.)
Nike outlet has them for 59.99 and due to the materials they flex for wide footers like myself. Look great with jeans but bowling shoes with shorts.
The design especially toe area is like a football shoes.
Your opening spiel always cracks me up lmao can’t seem to follow what you were saying!
this shoe is like wearing socks and the cushion is so smooth, so good
fire review as always
Thank you!
It’s funny because you actually sold me on these, like you usually hvae lol giannis immortality 3 next pls
I usually wear 10.5 in Adidas, would you recommend go half size up for this Freak 5? I got wide feet but not a lot, sorry my bad english :)
TTS
I’m thinking of copping and then just customizing the green swoosh and green colors I like the shoe though ❤
I ❤ the zoom freak line!! ( the threes were my favorite!) the zoom units in the forefoot felt super nice on foot. Go Bucks!
I had the threes and they where amazing. I hooped in them until the air bubble popped because of their age
I like the looks, I don't like the no shank
Honestly I actually really like this silhouette, bought a pair today, and the performance for me is top tier, I just want to know what they were smoking when they came up with the colorways😂
LOL yeah and the look kept growing on me but some of those first colorways… 🌚
A few years ago no one would think chinese brands would make prettier shoes than nike
Top review, I wonder how do you make reviews so fast. Btw what shoe is better anta gh3 or li ning ac 11?
🙏🙏 Not sure, I’ve never played in the GH3 sorry.
I like Giannis a lot. He’s one of my favorite players but I don’t think that Nike puts in a lot of effort to design these shoes which I think is sad. Wouldn’t really buy them because of the design. I just think it looks ugly tbh
The portion and the quality of materials have been downgraded from previous years models. Aesthetically though they look quite good, i really dig the large swoosh!
Just acquired these for 34$ @ the Nike Store in Fairfax, VA . . Thx for ur input.
Nice! Steal, that’s nasty 👍
Nice Review Tommy.. please review Nike GT Jump 2 thanks
For sure 👌👌 Thank you!
The looks of the shoe I'd say is not really that bad at all. I guess it just also depends on the colorway you're getting. Probably avoid the red, green and gold ones cos those are dead on ugly lol
True. I think the all white one is super clean, and yeah those are awful 😂😂
hello, thanks for what you do. I have a question, what would you choose for an outdoor? Freak 5 or inpact 4. I care about support and bounc, traction doesn't matter
🙏 Hi, Freak 5.
Thanks for sharing always, they seem like they would play nice. I was thinking you would say they are a better choice than the Freak 4. Nevertheless cheering you on. Be blessed @Tommy.
Thank you as always! Solid shoe for sure, still “learning” to appreciate its look though 😂😂 Yeah I did say that towards the end, you know me too well haha!
I have the exact shoe but i haven't used it for competitive basketball.
What do you think about the immortality 3's?
U'r the Boss ser Tom 👍💪what you've said is final👍♥️🇵🇭
🙏🙏
Do you have heel slip on the zoom freak 5?
Nope
This color way is on sale for $45 USD at finishline 👀
Hi Tommy finally i got my new shoes the Luca 1 after a month they finally arrived
Nice!
And hi 😃
Design aesthetics are definitely a step down. They don't look like a basketball sneaker
Yessir!
is the durability good? I am planning to buy 1 is it worth it?
Yes
If you were to choose between this and Curry 4 low flotro. Which one will you choose sir?
Probably this
So,how can I buy it?😅
Random comparison but Freak 5 or Converse BB Shift? Outdoors 🙏
@@jowsephwastaken Freak 5
are they good for outdoor?
Should be fine.
I like how they look 🤷♂️
These or ja 1? Thanks! I'm a wide footer
These
@@TommyLiu4 thank you!
How’s the support? I didn’t like the 4s and they tilted and made it so unstable
In that aspect these are better actually. Stronger torsional support and the upper feels more sturdy.
I had the freak 4 for like a year but then they got torn .what shoes should I get ? I was thinking mybe the wow 10 or the Kobe 8 that’s going to release let me know if you have another shoes in mind 🙏
Can’t really go wrong with the WOW 10 😃 I wish I’ll be able to get a pair of the Kobe 8 Protro but I highly doubt it… 😅😅
giannis immortality 3 when?
Soon. Coming up! 😃
hey bro you should do immortality 3
My son got a pair of Freak 5 "Oreo", for FREE 😊

Niceee 👍👍
Freak 4s are actually my outdoor shoe and its the best for me. Let me know how the 5s perform outdoors if ever you’re going to try it. Thanks for the review!
👍👍
How is it holding up outdoors? I have a pair of zf4 I never wear, so maybe I can wear those outside if they have decent durability
@@bleeblaabloo they are hell if you’re planning to use them right away from bnew. Use them first and walk with them maybe a total of 7-8 hours. They will be the best outdoor shoes in terms of durability and playability after breaking in, IMO.
@@admplaysballhow is your freak 4s going now? And how long have u been playing with them outdoors?
@@Lebron1271 still good!! But seeing sole damage from constant outdoor playing. Otherwise, still a good outdoor shoe!
Freak 5 vs Ja 1. Which is better?
Freak 5
There are supposed to be inspired by a soccer cleat
It seems loose on the heels. Does it slip?
No
@@TommyLiu4 your feet appear to be wedged inside towards the toe box. I’m about to cop a pair of these but I hate it when my ankles slip out of position in-game.
Does this system keep the feet in position well? I usually go true-to-size.
Thanks, Tommy
@@tatalunin6614 Yes sorry some clips can be a little misleading, during those hard movements to test forefoot traction my feet get pushed to the very tip at the front. Heel slippage is about mild/average for the Freak 5s.
The freak 5 are durable for outdoors?
Yes
Are these any good on an outside dirty court?
Yes
Freak 5 vs Son of Chi 3 ? Which one better ?
Son of Chi 3.0
It seems like a low ver of Adidas Crazy Kobe :)))
are you going to take a look at the wade 808 3?
Yes for sure! Will be something exciting with it too 😁
@@TommyLiu4 bet can you link where you get them from in your review 🙏🏾
Please do immortality 3😭
ua-cam.com/video/fKCTsqsvX64/v-deo.htmlsi=1XnMHB6PbxfYFkej
Try the AND1 Revel USD$59
is the 4th one better than 5th one?
To me yes. It’s more comfy and feels faster on feet but the 5 does have better lockdown.
Looks like a fusion between a running and a soccer shoe haha
Hey bro. I really dont have very wide feet. But a bit wide. So should i go for them?
Hey man, I think they’re fine. Try one on if u can though
@@TommyLiu4 bro the thing is I live in India where Nike doesn't really get these to offline stores. So all I have is a risky lifeline and go for online 😂
@@siddharthanand108 Ahh I see. Should be good! I like the Freak 5s, they turned out better than I expected.
Shouldve named them The Ankle Sprainer
They look like footbal (soccer) shoes.
Do they last long? (I hope they do) cuz i just bought them😂
Yes
@@TommyLiu4 thank u bro
is it good for wide feet? and is the freak 4 or freak 5 better since im looking for a wide feet shoe
4
Only 79.99 at dsg right now
there on sale rn for 100$ us should I get them
Sure!
Looks like a track shoe and not a basketball shoe.
Can you please do @drose son of chi 3?😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤
👌
Oreo ones aren't ugly
the design looks like ass and most CW are bad :))) but they feel crazy comfortable on feet and under foot, much better than 4s or 3s. And when you get them for 54$ :)) that's crazy good
Do the shoes give u blisters?
Not for me
@@TommyLiu4 do u know what to do if they do give u blisters?
@@bakar1120 Don’t wear them
@@TommyLiu4 😭 man those shoes look to good
I got the.colorway you had on sale. They seem very narrow to me, almost to narrow and I have regular women's feet.
I got flourescent green shoelaces and they look a lot better than tne black. I thought the black laces looked sloppy over the white tongue.
I see. Yeah I can imagine that lace swap would have made it better! 👍
other colorways are fire...........
Heard from Reddit that these are bad
I truly hate Nike for how they are treating Giannis with his awful ass ugly shoes. Sighh.
The first two color ways of the Freak 5 are awful! I'll stick with my Zoom Freak 4's!
total downgrade from 4s imo.
review ja 1
Tbh this shoe just seems like the definition of mid. Not great but not terrible.
Fair assessment
What happened to that swoosh? It doesn't look like a Nike swoosh. 🤣🤣
Enormous 😂
These or Sabrina 1?
These
@@TommyLiu4 why not sabrina 1?
@@TommyLiu4 Help me bro pls. I’ve been watching reviews for a week and still can’t decide which one to get 😭🤣
Oh cmom they are not that ugly
Yeah I changed my mind on the look completely 😂😂
U can comment here up if u watched this video in the first hour
