For me the most important info is that THESE WILL TAKE A WHILE TO BREAK IN. Like I genuinely thought of returning them because I hated how they felt out of the box. They felt stiff, not very responsive and uncomfortable. Now(after using them for around 5 sessions) I love them, my absolute fav in rotation, even over the Harden 7s. So keep them in mind

[@Chicago_Jayhawk]

I loved them right out of the box. Played my normal 5 full-court games.

[@ivanmamuyac]

Facts. Traction and upper were so trash pre-break-in. After 2 weeks worth of daily hooping, they are my go-to.

[@ad4mk1ng84]

Fr they was great out the box

[@dee_jay403]

interesting point about the traction. it felt incredible at first but i think i might be in that phase where it’s picking up dust. hoping i’ll reach that point where it gets grippy again soon, i was really starting to regret this purchase because of it. one thing i want to add is the heel-toe transition on these is *much* improved over the 4. it’s got the perfect combo of flat and rounded surface area imo.

[@hemiintirol]

I'm definitely watching your videos before I buy a performance footwear. You are really doing very deep testing. thankk youuu Zach from Austria

[@mdschlayer]

This is my favorite shoe right now, bought three different colorways. And use it for tennis, great lock down.

[@FootDoctorZach]

I actually had a section in the video I took out about how I wish they would model th barricade after this haha

What about Cushion Mitchell himself said this for Complex magazine: "The D.O.N. Issue #5 is all about high-performance and features adidas’ newest technology of the caged jet boost and light strike midsole." But I don't see that Jet Boost here. By the way it would be nice to compare under microscope Don's 5, Harden's 7 and Young's 3 to see if there are any differences are between Lighstrike cushion.

[@Chicago_Jayhawk]

Love them. Should be one in top 10 especially considering they are $120. I went 1/2 size down (tried them on in store). These and Harden 7s so nice.

[@Yeh22269]

Which would you recommend for outdoor play, these or the fission 9?

[@trombonist0214]

would you recommend these for hooping in the outdoors on concrete?

[@CAIsleta]

Can't wait to see the AE1 breakdown 😬

[@brunis_m]

Doc from a medical standpoint is it good, bad or neutral to have say 2-3 different shoes that you constantly rotate in between for a certain sport? Versus sticking to one shoe (or multiple pairs of one shoe if we wanna be picky and compare apples to apples).

[@bennissimov]

I got the Don issue 4 and love them but am to the point where i need a new pair. Seems like a bit of a departure from those, wondering what the main difference in feel will be but i think i will probably take a chance on them.

[@FootDoctorZach]

From the 4 to the 5 the quality stepped up IMO but also the stiffness so a but more of a break-in period vs the 4

[@krm_cavdarli]

Hi zach, i am going to buy new baksetball shoes and I am between this and harden vol 6.Which should I choose?

[@lawcager0073]

Is DON Issue 5 midcut/midtop? And should I go half size up if I am using orthotics while playing bball? Can it last on outdoor courts?

Nice looking shoe!seems descent overall,thanks

[@bluebeta5191]

I really appreciate the grip test!

[@AmateurPhotographer12]

I bought this shoe yesterday I didn’t wear them yet but I don’t do basketball I do walking around is that fine?

[@hardikreddy7093]

Personally think this shoe is a step up from the previous models (especially the aesthetics 🤤🤤) and does everything that a shoe can. Its almost a perfect shoe for like- small forwards because they really are kind of an all rounding player whose playstyle is on the fine line between maximalist and nimble and quick. Can't wait for these to drop in India!!

[@bpaperu]

Great review. Thanks!

[@oOblistexOo]

🔴 I hope to see a review of the Nike Kobe 6 Reverse ! 🔴

What's the Treade Depth On These Shoes?

[@seancaayon7276]

Hi Doc! Do nitrogen infused foam setups last longer than eTPU foam, like boost, or is it the other way around? I want a foam cushion that does not bottom out quickly. Thanks!

[@FootDoctorZach]

Well nitrogen is a component not a foam base so if its etpu PLUS nitrogen then usually it will last longer but thats probably factory-dependent.

[@seancaayon7276]

[@kickswithphilly]

Kind of getting tired of every shoe reviewer just saying put an orthotic in it. Why cant the shoes just be made better? We understand an aftermarket orthotic will improve every aspect of the shoe, can we just hear how the shoe performs on its own?

[@FootDoctorZach]

The entire video is about how the shoe performs on its own…
