What’s your favorite budget shoe this year??

Pg 6’s for sure,btw what do you think about the kyrie 6s,i saw and tried them at a local outlet in my area and loved them,do you think they are a good shoe for a shooting guards

I had the Flytrap 6 for 2 weeks, I should've waited for this video before deciding. Now I should've gone for the Precision 6 or Stepback 3. Great video btw keep it up 💯

[@TommyLiu4]

Thank you!! What do you think about the Flytrap 6 by the way? I haven’t started playing in my pair yet.

[@tatayben8955]

@@TommyLiu4 The materials used in it was commendable, it comes with XDR so I instantly bought it and it held up pretty well. BUT the cushioning was terrible. No technology used in it but it's a budget shoe so I don't expect anything better for it's price. I just think the Precision 6 or the Stepback 3 was slightly better than the Flytrap 6. But anyways, I'll wait for your review on the Flytrap 6

[@TommyLiu4]

Thank you! Air Max Impact 4 is a better shoe overall mainly because of cushioning. But be careful cause these Nike shoes aren’t the most wide foot friendly out there, in that regard the Air Max Impact is a little bit better too.

Nike Precision 6 or Nike air max impact 4?

[@TommyLiu4]

Tough one I love both 😆 Air Max Impact 4 is for sure a better shoe overall, with better cushioning and compression. But the Precision’s price point makes it really attractive. So it can come down to which one you find a better deal for honestly.

Please do a review on the Lebron Witness line particularly the Witness 7. Thank you.

[@kermitlikesmemes9417]

hey Tommy, which do you prefer, the Luka 1s or Zoom freak 4s and why? I got both of them and I’m going to return one of them but I’m not sure which one.

[@TommyLiu4]

Hey, ah that must be a tough decision 😂 If I have to pick, I’ll take the Zoom Freak 4 for much better cushioning and more compression which is nice and soft on feet. But stick with the Luka 1 if traction is your priority, the translucent outsole has top tier performance from my experience. I guess it really just comes down to what’s most important to you, also I feel like the Luka 1 will have better long-term “value” as a pair to have in the collection.

[@eviljapanese8881]

Hi, thank you for your amazing reviews again Tommy. Which one is better in your opinion? Nike airmax impact4 or Puma court rider?

[@TommyLiu4]

Hi Tommy! All love and support from Philippines! Curry 3Z6, KD Trey5 X, or Puma Court Rider 2.0. Which of these budget shoe might be the best? Or should I just add more and go with Puma TRC Blaze? Hehe

[@TommyLiu4]

I have a wide foot so finding shoes for me is so hard as a guard. Which one you suggest from them? İt would be better to use it on outdoor so court rider fits perfect to me i think but still looking for new options

[@TommyLiu4]

Right I was just gonna say the only one here that is very wide foot friendly is the Court Rider 2.0. The recent good budget shoes tend to be on the narrower end, especially the Nike ones. The Curry 3Z6 will work for wide feet, and the new Puma Playmaker Pro is decent too.

For outdoors, Adidas basketball shoes tend to give you the best durability. Trae Young 1 & Harden Vol. 6 are both great. You can try on pairs in store if possible, to see which type of fit you prefer.

They’re both good for outdoors, Court Rider’s outsole is probably more durable. Court Rider is for wide feet and Precision is for medium-narrow feet.

What do you mean when you say compression? I'm confused by a lot of reviewers own personal terminology for different aspects. Like you don't really have a vocabulary. You just say something that sounds technical but doesn't even really make sense.

[@TommyLiu4]

Right sorry for any confusion made - usually by compression I meant to refer to how soft the foam is, as in more compression = softer midsole for example. Will work on choosing better words, thanks! 🙏

[@arthurevans2029]

@@TommyLiu4 very well. Thanks for the response. That's definitely one of those words that can be applied in multiple ways. Compression has several uses and I get confused with cushion too. For example, I thought the AJ 37s felt like wood in the heal, but I believe I heard you say they had TOO MUCH cushion while I thought the depth and/or softness of "compression", as you use it, was extremely minimal. Maybe the pair I tried on was broken🤷‍♂️😄 Similarly, I think you said the Kyrie 5 low had bad cushion while I thought they felt like much softer impact in the heal. Again, broken maybe🤷‍♂️😄
