Nike KD17 Biggest Pros & Cons

[@FootDoctorZach]

Grab a pair at Nike: geni.us/nikesneakers

[@wasabitequila]

Ever since I started wearing hoop shoes made by Asian brands (particularly Asics and Li Ning), they've completely changed my mind. Not turning back to Nike/Adidas.

[@sliver7961]

do u got any recommendations from both brands, asics and li ning

[@donlimon5429]

Problem for me is the asian brands never go on sale for U.S. customers

[@AriaPerdana]

[@vito-casagrande1209]

What ASICS do you use to hoop in?

[@jamestuason6356]

I was about to buy them, but waited for this video 😂

[@nguyenduyhung1000]

buying sneakers rule of thumb: always watch FDZ beforehand

[@lawcager0073]

This is true. I always do this like before I bought my nike GI3.

[@adams.gestwicki5292]

You listed all my pains (knees, hips, ankles). Sucks that's the case since I loved the 16's and thought they weren't going to mess with the cushioning until the 18's.

[@gojira2404]

I miss the full length zoom strobel in KDs and I think the KD line peaked at the 14s. I wonder what they get on the URS? Also, can you make a video about how you would fix the li-ning gamma's? Thanks Doc! Excited for the kobe 8 review too!

[@yelllowjacket1756]

I already know that the forefoot shank would destroy the skin on my big toe on the long run

[@Yidkiddabesht]

Love doctor Zach's videos

[@billyellis4149]

The shank strobel is an interesting idea

[@twindisciplines639]

Great video zach! Can you make a best shoes for volleyball video?? 👀 how would you compare Asics shoes vs basketball shoes for the sport??

[@DrBoomBoomboom]

Can you review some ASICS basketball shoes? Like the ASICS gel-burst 28?

[@lionelgrisbane-ud87]

Unfortunately no

[@willyjunperez2575]

Dr Zach please consider also having a performance review of the Anta Shockwave 5 Version 2. Thank you.

[@SLAPTALK]

I need this in a TRIPLE BLACK colorway. ⚫️😎⚫️

[@mainsourcery]

Xero is making a barefoot basketball shoe and made a custom for Justin Holiday of the Denver Nuggets. Looking forward to a teardown of those when they come out.

[@FootDoctorZach]

If it’s a barefoot shoe…how could it be sport specific…? Besides the tread suppose

[@mainsourcery]

@@FootDoctorZach he has pics of them on-court on his IG, with a mid-foot strap for added lockdown. Forefoot lockdown I might be concerned about because of the wide forefoot, but I’m looking forward to the zero heel-to-toe drop.

[@joshdeteralifestyle14]

Zach ,ive been a fan of your content since 2022, can we get atleast a view of the insides of liren 4 regular version (midcut) we wanna know the bounce height test of those please 🙏

[@Flossy2K.]

Almost at 200k subs, let’s go

[@GeoJ1830]

Super nice review ! Really liked your comments ! Thank you very much :)

[@BassFace1776]

I was a huge KD fan 8-14. I've bought everyone after that but ive returned all except 1 pair of kd16. These look kinda cheesy to me.

[@alexandroskoliousis975]

I am between these and giannis freak 6. What do you suggest?

[@ThePartarar]

I’d guess they couldn’t extend the shank because of the air unit, might pop it.

[@vaughnronald-james7248]

I struggled with these it pulled at my heel and excited my tendentious like crazy

[@allensmith9879]

Nike should have put polyurethane insoles in these (The Jordan 11 insoles) to help reduce some of that shock coming from the shank. I’ll probably throw some in once I’ve broken them in and made room for a thicker PU insole, they really do make a huge difference it’s another entire layer of foam.

[@RatedMRR]

They def could’ve used another eyelet. They def fit long. I went half size down. Overall a fun and comfortable shoe. Thanks as always Doctor Zach.

[@Tapeworm99]

Nike has to get it together, really haven’t had a top performer for basketball in quite some time. Been playing in my reverse grinch protros which are incredible, but thats old tech.

[@Rizzstrainingorder837]

Lebron 21s are elite

[@ckrueger7488]

Dr Zach which do you think is more worth for outdoor? $75 two wxy v4 OR $110 All city 11 🙏

[@baptiono]

So is this shoe good for shifty, point gaurds who also want a lot of bounce from their shoe? Like is this a big mans shoe or a point guard shoe?

[@allensmith9879]

Would have liked the zoom to cover the entire forefoot area like the 16s

[@Yidkiddabesht]

I was wondering when it would come out

[@mailonwilliams6864]

They keep rushing the kds nike drops them almost every few months these are bulky and not 1 of the best its a no go for me

[@jonathanpasse3877]

I might’ve missed it, but is it a good shoe for chronic ankle sprainers?

[@FootDoctorZach]

Middle of the pack

[@oliwk2622]

Just wondering, are wow10s safe to buy from taobao?? 500+ reviews and 1000+ purchased

[@lionelgrisbane-ud87]

How would he know?

[@justinwinterholler6334]

When you do the bounce height test in Nike or Jordan shoes, is it done before or after you cut them in half? I just think that the results might be less if you were bouncing the ball in deflated air or zoom units

[@Rizzstrainingorder837]

I think he cuts just the uppers

[@themaskedgriffin6384]

Clyde all pro review

[@KishoreAdityaN]

Yeah please

[@SigmaSebEdits]

Can you please do Li-Ning Badfive 2 or 3 next?

[@KyngKee]

@footdoctorzach can you do a video and recommend some good slides for off the court recovery?

[@FootDoctorZach]

I have my own coming out soon so watch out for them

[@duMaurier15]

Huh?? Didnt the KD16 not just release at start of the season? KD16 and KD15 were nice looking shoes but the colorways were lacking.. Nike is not releasing many colorways for basketball sneakers overall. Remember the days of KD4, KD7, Kyrie 1, Lebron 11, 12 when a colorway was released 1 or twice a month..

[@Bladehunted23]

Are these shoes good for a guard?

[@user-gt1eg5gy4]

@FootDoctorZach Which is more breathable/lightweight Jordan 37 low or Kd 17?

[@FootDoctorZach]

Both tests and weights are in both videos

[@floydangelo22]

Can you do Asics sky elite ff mt 2 next time?

[@66milenn]

are they good for centers and heavier players

[@MopaMcGee]

Any chance the strobel board would be good for something like halux rigidus?

[@FootDoctorZach]

Discussed word for word in the video

[@MopaMcGee]

@@FootDoctorZach how did I miss it?! 😅

[@HaimingChen-od7ff]

Fresh haircut 🔥

[@aravantony2479]

Is this shoes good for centers or kd 15 is better

[@j-emdequiroz9457]

pls review 361 big 3 5.0 pro and dvd 2

[@zense7721]

looks like im skipoing these😂, hopefully doc can also review the regular yushuai 18 and how it compares to the ultras considering that hefty pricepoint in the ultras😂

[@wpnt37]

Sounds like the Kawhi 4 is the better shoe at this price point.

[@CadeClauset]

Do the Sabrina 2

[@norvieYT]

Pls do the Sabrina 2

[@stripesroars812]

I got mine and the laces are super short

[@xumatt1999]

are the 16s better than the 17s?

[@NafiseAghajani]

Pleas review ag 4 soar

[@jorgealafriz]

16 was my favorite. You’re saying this is better?

[@kieransoregaard-utt8]

Go watch his KD16 video and compare what he says about both

[@jorgklatt396]

I want a 14 as a low top

[@ANGELSANCHEZ-gm9kz]

Will you be cutting the kawhi's new shoes?

[@FootDoctorZach]

Already did- check the channel

[@killric13]

I tried the UA Elite with this KD 17 I bought 17's 😂

He already did, look back about a month ago.

[@unclutchible4771]

are they better than 16s?

[@omarearf]

Is the review for the ASICS gelburst 28 coming anytime soon?

@@lionelgrisbane darn

[@Daewonnni]

These look like GT Hustle 2

Why do they make those laces so bad , that we have to do them twice ?

Just blind buy them I can’t wait

So cool

So KD16 Or KD17?

[@biggertree7063]

Looks like Anta's DBZ shoes.

[@viengallardo525]

💯🔥

Kd 17 on outdoor courts after a week you are just praying to stop and not slide into another country

[@PlatinumState]

Nike with stupid gimmicks again no one asked for. Shank strobel ffs

[@humairhamid822]

The beggining made me mad

[@joachimmahoudeaux8619]

LeFool and Kev are not bankable enough, now people are all Ant, Zion, Luka, Joker, Wemby. The fact Nike couldn't keep Jokic is a proof of their incompetence. Offering only Jordan' brands contracts to Tatum and Luka Doncic is stupid. Nike has to say "bye bye Kev, bye bye Lebron, the new generation is here now."

[@Guyfury-dr2gn]

Bruh the kd16 and lebron 20/21 are so common in the nba, these are still big names. Quit yappin.

[@AsianEyes007]

@@Guyfury-dr2gn Yeah, bro is definitely yappin. KD’s and Lebron’s are still the best hoop shoes for Nike, Ant isn’t even a Nike athlete, and the other current Nike athlete’s shoes are okay to good at best 😂 Dudes hatin and he’s not even wearing the shoes

[@ronbrooks6547]

Biggest con, the shoes are the worst looking Basketball Shoes ever made probably. Its taken from Old Flame Air Max and not a good look it's just Lazy on Designing again. Nike is in the toilet these days. No creativity at all. Need to hire me or someone else.

[@lanpaule3428]

It’s ugly.

[@user-uy3og8wx7t]

Very bad shoes bro lebron 20 galaxy very very better

[@michaelp9061]

The half way plate is just such a miss. Zero brain involved.

[@Steve-xt2ze]

They are ugly and reminds me of the air max in the 90s
