i like the socks on the thumbnail! link please

[@Few_Proud_Emotional]

You should do Kawhi 3 Next! Great New Balance Basketball Shoe And I Haven't Seen Very Many Reviews Of Em.

[@mainsourcery]

Foot doctor is the walking definition of “for the culture” for cutting open a highly-limited sneaker.

[@kbergrgb]

i mean that is his line of work so of course he's gonna cut em open and investigate!

[@QueMusiQ]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@tristonmanuel6813]

I just wish I could’ve got a pair I was anticipating that color way since they announced the release of this shoe man.

[@user-ek8vg5fn8r]

There’s no culture…😂

[@mainsourcery]

@@tristonmanuel6813 likely the best colorway. As of now, definitely.

[@Wladislav]

I think it's a smart move to go with a design that has more casual wear appeal.

[@moballardful]

Single handedly bringing back quality hoop shoe reviews.

[@SuaveSkii]

Sole drop disrespect

[@moballardful]

@@SuaveSkii they haven't been this detailed or even had on court footage in a LONG time bro.

[@TJYLai]

Doc tearing down pair 219/500 made so we can see the teardown extra early … thanks for doing what you do 🫡

[@melvinmeadows415]

Yea I cried watching this teardown😂

[@thedrinkerofH2O]

I fell in love with the Book 1’s the first time I’ve seen them, good to know they’re also great performers. Hope the other colorways are gonna be widely available because damn these are beautiful and I want to have a pair

[@mainsourcery]

Maybe people will sleep just because it’s Book.

[@nassiglutt6587]

Nice to know some like it. I find it so damn ugly like a blazer so it's not a 2023 shoe but this was 80s. Might be a good performer but the looks are old school lifestyle and not on the court

[@thedrinkerofH2O]

@@mainsourcery I hope so

[@Rafa-bn8oh]

I’m with you on this, I love these. I hope they are easy to cop.

[@koklich]

that is exactly why I like them

[@SavNJ]

Considering these are so limited, salute for sticking to the process doc 😅

[@disturbedwaves9505]

Man that made me sick seeing the number count on it 😭

[@sir_squonks_alot_castro4438]

I don’t think he knows how much these cost

[@jesusangeldiaz8118]

The way Doctor Zach talks about kicks man I feel like I’m in a class where the teacher actually enjoys teaching. Nothing but unbiased knowledge.

[@FootDoctorZach]

I appreciate you

[@bdgabuilt]

I was watching Phoenix on TV the other day and noticed like 4 players wearing the Book 1. I'm not crazy about the shoe's design (as far as signatures go), but they did look like an awesome team shoe. Thanks for another great review Zach 👍

[@iamtheway118]

You have the best shoe review of all time because you bring more objective comments by cutting the shoe. Amazing Doc!

[@mylesgalos1679]

Yes!!!

[@GoufinAround_]

This is one of the only new basketball shoes that I've considered for casual wear. I'm glad to see the review

[@crizondecena3213]

Feel you. Will wait for all white color way and that might look like af1 that ive been wanting to rock but i aint coz to me is kinda heavy lookin shoe.

[@devincagadoc6619]

i just really like how much these are reminiscent of the Kobe 4, and specifically the protro with the cushlon setup.

[@ovojdabanks210]

our favourite doctor cutting open a 1/500 shoe. that's why you're the goat

[@FootDoctorZach]

Haha I actually forgot about the only 500 pairs until I got it and saw the stitching

[@jrdatrackstar]

Pretty much what I assumed about them, based upon the specs. Hopefully the Book 2 has some cushioning in the forefoot.

[@nickosrm]

You're a real one for this. Cutting a limited shoe in half to provide an amazing review is different!!!

[@gdf1352]

We need the GT Cut 3 review , interested in seeing what in that sole compared to the first GT Cuts.

[@manuelrodriguez1027]

The silhouette really reminds me of de Kobe AD Mid, which makes sense since D. Book was seen playing in those a lot. I think he even had a PE of the AD Mids.

[@Honolulu_Gaming]

I just posted this but mixed with forces

[@stormthing22]

Another awesome review another request for the fog 1s. Thank zach love ur work

[@mainsourcery]

That heel-to-toe drop is unfortunately quite wicked. I was hoping it would resemble more of a Nike Blazer than an AF1.

[@enriquejgarcia-pena9202]

Book 1, harden 7, AE1… which one would you go with? Similar body type to yourself. Play mostly indoors. Basketball.volleyball

[@taylormilton3]

When these shoes first came out alot of reviewers were trashing these shoes. The look, the tech, etc. I personally think they look awesome and the review makes me like them even more. Thank you

[@FootDoctorZach]

They certainly aren’t for everyone- I think time will be the ultimate test of them

[@hackrjack]

Lovely vid Zach. (Go Suns and Go Sun Devils!) Really looking forward to copping a pair of these next year.

[@beaboutit2431]

1st time here. Best and most detailed shoe review in the shoe community. I'm going to see your other vids

[@YaBoiKdMan]

Waiting on an all white color so I can rock them like I do af1s

[@7evan11]

Hey doc, I am a tts 12.5 and I have medium to wide feet. Between 12 and 13, what size would you recommend for the harden 7? 12.5 is out of stock and I doubt they will restock.

[@foamysoda1]

such an underrated channel keep up the reviews please man

[@octobersveryown1933]

Zach, can you talk about why Devin Booker may keep spraining his foot in this shoe?

[@janwellner9839]

Is the lack of containment comparable to the Puma Nitro Fusion, the shoe with the x shaped lacing? As soon as the Puma is heating up the uppers getting more loose and heel slippage occurs, and when stopping lateral movements, my foot goes "through" the uppers and sometimes i can feel my pinky toe touch the floor, which is really an issue. The Kyrie Low 5 are much better regarding containment, but where much harder regarding the midsole and feel - the first game was really no pleasure until i got my orthotics.

[@FootDoctorZach]

Fusion nitros were noticeably worse

[@randyalbert2551]

Nice informative video on Book1 Doc!, I think this shoe is a love child of AF1 x Kobe 6.

[@william-uc2oy]

That’s the first take I had also. Kobe/Air Force.

[@arrowzen7433]

A small zoom bag in the front would go a long way with that thin foam. Even just under the ball of the foot. Especially for street ball use.

[@Popongkee]

Damn. Slaughtering the limited shoe. Salute to you Doc for giving us these reviews. ❤

[@Jay_Reacts_]

My feet would kill. I need a zoom unit in the forefoot, not the heel, and that foam is HELLA thin

[@JR-cl7hl]

Man I wanted these so bad, to see you chop em hurts my soul! 😂 Great review

[@joejett5084]

I like how these look. Has a throwback, vintage look to it.

[@Ed_e_BeTo]

Would be really interested in a Judah 1 review...

[@misunderstoodcomedian947]

r they comfy that's all i want to know, i wanted to get a pair once its the right color but i need them to be super comfy

[@e_wky]

Interestingly you always able to find an outdoor open court to play alone but no one else. Good review as always Zach

[@FootDoctorZach]

We have a ton of them around - and almost always I’m alone

[@QueMusiQ]

Do you KNOW how MANY OF THESE Nike finna sell me??!? A comfortable modern AF1??!?

[@thomaseliane1111]

I'm a chronic ankle sprainer and I play basketball in the kyrie infinity i could land on someone's foot and still not sprain my ankle in these. Any other shoe you recommend that provides this much support?

[@ghostwolf7673]

Hey Zach, I was wondering if you could do a review on the seriousplayeronly game 1. Please and thank you

[@janarviviado1509]

if you put Move game day pro insoles, would it still be half size up or go get a full size up? thanks

[@ecumemes.exe123]

There's only 500 of this colorway made and foot doctor cut em open for us Respect 🙏

[@GiorgosM145]

Its good for arch pain/overpronation?

[@cal3b.3k]

What would you recommend for a player on the bigger side

[@Daewonnni]

Books or Adidas ANT1’s ? The lack of cushion on the forefoot will be bone crunching.

[@davidrinmawia2959]

Foot doctor Zach review is the best for basketball shoes👍👍

[@D.WhiteJr]

I was tripping on stock X they are $2,500 I need this color way. For our school colors super sick.

[@saminahmed1245]

As much as it pains me to see these shoes cut in half, the review was worth it. Can’t wait for these to come out! Thanks for the video man

[@briancrawford69]

I'm getting a pair just to wear. Super clean looking shoe

[@timsandeman5101]

Could you do a list suggesting basketball shoes for people with bunions.

[@TheParadox116]

I'm all in on these shoes they hit on so many difrrent lvls on the court and off.

[@daimos6686]

Wow Iike this shoe, Simplicity

[@Beast_mode-vj9sr]

Would the move gamedays be a good option for these shoes

[@peanutbutter7169]

Tearing the shoe apart hurt my eyes so much more after seeing the "219 out of 500" Patch 😭💀

[@bctical]

Future classics! Love these

[@twodragonjin5895]

$160 retail price sneaker, not basketball shoes. cut half 500 pair limited shoes. full respect for Doc.

[@mailonwilliams6864]

Cant wait to get a pair love the fake era is hating on them more pairs for us 😂

[@realmenrollracefilms]

Would love to cop a pair, especially after seeing this

[@ethanmascarenhas9052]

Dr if possible please review the nike vomero 17 i watch all your videos much love from Germany

[@shootyourshotTV]

What do you do with the uncut pair? Can I buy it?

[@villiam7941]

I like the shoe! They look not too flashy as many other basketball shoes. Nice discreet design. Would you use them on a tennis court (not considering the durability)?

[@FootDoctorZach]

Eh- maybe if you don’t push the containment on them- they have the same under foot feel though

[@MrMeMyselfandI]

The way I see it, tech-wise, these are Kobe 4s with Booker’s branding

[@alancarlosmadamba8081]

Dr Zach back at it.!!! Thinking if I will be copping these...

[@ertii69]

Did you cop them ? If yes how was the performance on these

[@alancarlosmadamba8081]

@@ertii69 unfortunately no because in my country the people already bought the shoes and mark it up. No use in paying 2x the price.

[@ertii69]

@@alancarlosmadamba8081 oh I understand, so I have been playing basketball for 2 years or so but i have never been into shoes so I have been playing with some Jordan's since that was what I could afford but now I have some money and I want to buy a good shoe that is gonna last and also give me great performance. If you know any please tell me. I am thinking of buying some lebron 21 what do you think ( way of wades and most shoes like that aren't available here in Greece that's why I can't get some)

[@aleminium]

No forefoot zoom is a pass for me :( Shame

[@jesseanderson6356]

Kills me seeing these sliced in half 🤢but I appreciate the sacrifice. Great review!

[@glenn0325]

Definitely coping this. Good on an off the court

[@HardKnocks160s]

I see a bunch of haters in this comment section i just picked up some book 1 havens a week ago these things feel great on and off the court id recommend them to anyone.

[@ethanmascarenhas9052]

dr could you please test nike vomero 17 would be of great help

[@mylestho]

Really surprised there's no zoom unit in the forefoot for how flat the profile of this shoe is

[@FootDoctorZach]

Same as a lot of Nike tennis

[@SkylineJet]

Thoughts on this as a tennis shoe on grass/hard court?

[@user-lz6uz3yr4r]

I can buy it when it's officially released, right?😮

[@seanseams6308]

The way I’ve wanted this shoe for so long to find out there’s only 500 pairs… no 499 pairs out there 😢

[@nono-vg7lm]

are the way of wade fission 8 good for someone with a wide midfoot?

[@Crimilion]

Can Stiff Shank like Move Pro beat up the air strobel?

[@eyefly35]

How do these fit compared to Kobe 6 sizing?

[@rileybrogan910]

If I wear a 11.5 in adidas, should I go 12 for these?

[@hkhk5241]

I wish they are super lightweight and I can wear them shopping, never trust these 1st gen to be playable compared to all the other mature series.

[@michaelp9061]

But the thread is so thin and they will wear out fast. The older Nike bball shoes have much wider thread and better outsole durability

[@oliverarita1316]

How do these compare to the Kyrie low 5?

[@relax-vf4zg]

seems like thyre alike jordans 1 but in protro?

[@Parsel1128]

$5,000 shoe met its match against a razor knife

[@dunkkid23]

You ain’t even had to cut these ones doc… Now I gotta call the police 👮 😔🥲

[@Ruatsanga13]

For a performance centered shoe, why would they put a zoom air in the heel and nothing but the foam on the forefoot

[@FootDoctorZach]

Same as a lot of Nike tennis models

[@oofend9198]

Asics Nova surge low pls,many people says it pretty good!

[@ryyyyy2010]

hello sir, can you do kobe 6 rev grinches?

[@MrDormroomHoppa]

😅 I would’ve waited for a GR pair to drop to cut up not a 1 of 500 😂 but respect

[@APreda91]

Seems really comparable to the Kobe 4 !

[@xredwoodwolfie]

where did u get these i love u foot doctor zack

[@ryanfishman8824]

Get this man a collab with Nike man

[@chrisdarklighter6408]

The orange color have limited pieces?

[@blackblueandgold]

isn't a Kobe 4 inspired shoe? minus the outrigger.. Book loves AJ4s

[@teng029]

Damn.. you already got a Book 1? nice!

[@billyellis4149]

DOC! We need: Nike Vomero 5 pls

[@jamesyfied]

When will you review the new Nike GP Challenge Pro?

Whenever it comes in the mail

[@franciscofirmo5588]

Can u test the Adidas bouce legends? Please

Damn the limited edition you cut up 😢2000-5000 dollars for a review you could have used a gr

[@ammaralam295]

Brings tears to my eyes he cut a 1/500 pair shoe 🥲💀

[@oliverg6643]

Foot doc is the Doug Demuro of cars

[@aarong7377]

that colorway only has 500 pairs released and you just cut open one of them?

how did you get a pair of Book 1's?
