Jordan Tatum 1: All Eyes on the Bottom

[@TommyLiu4]

Thoughts on the Tatum 1? 🟢 Weight, Comfort 🔴 Durability, Traction on Dust Thank you for watching!

[@bronzeagebroski9647]

I got these; same colorway as you. I'm not a basketball player, more of a shoot around type, but being a Big Celtics and Tatum fan these were a must. I was pleasantly pleased when I got them in hand and couldn't agree with your review any more. Great job!!!

[@TommyLiu4]

Nice! 👍👍🙏

[@nylesprint]

My favorite shoe of 2023 so far. I feel the Zoom more the more I play in them. I'm around 245 lbs and containment is great. Traction has not failed me yet. Gonna also get those Pink Lemonades. 👍🏼

[@TommyLiu4]

Nice! Pink Lemonade is sure 🔥

Hey there again tommy! Much love from the philippines. Always love your quick, on point no BS reviews. Just got ahold of these in the zoo colorway! I'm usually US 12.5 (harden vol 6) to US 13 (KD 15, lebron 19). Tried on a friend's st. louis and his was US 11, and it was a snug fit, so im around size 12 I assumed. But i could only get ahold of a US 13 zoo colorway, so it was too loose, but i added another insole on top of it and so far it fits great! I'll update how it feels once I get to play in em!

[@TommyLiu4]

Hey appreciate you Kevin! Thanks for your input 🙏👍

[@amp.Cimbom]

I like Jayson Tatum a lot and I actually thought about getting these since my Jordan one take 3 really starts to wear down. My biggest problem is that this shoe is made for playing on the forefoot and I’m not someone who only plays on their forefoot. The weight is the thing that really impressed me but I also expected more of a narrow fit which I need as a smaller and skinny person. But I’ll wait until the review of the Ja 1 comes out to see which one is better. Maybe I’ll just wait until all of the new signature shoes come out to see if there’s anything for me.

Ankle support?

[@freddiebensonstan7037]

Just got the gt cut 2 in tts and my toes touch the end of the shoe relatively easy and the sides of the shoe on things like hard jab steps really easily. I went a half size up before and had the same problem with the lateral stopping and a bunch of heel slip. Will the lockdown and movement of my foot in the shoe get better as I break in the shoe? Cuz its pretty bad rn and honestly id rather wear my broken in kd 14s

[@TommyLiu4]

They will break in better over time, but the KD 14 is for sure a better shoe overall than the GT Cut 2 to me as well.

[@saiken811]

I'm a uni blue guy and this colourway is gorgeous! But since I almost exclusively play outdoor, I will have to give them a pass...

[@ghosty7192]

hey tommy really been enjoying your vids man! i just bought these hoping for a good indoor hooping shoe, do they hold up well? i wanted these to last about 7-8 months and lightweight is extremely important to me, and is the traciton really bad? again awsome vid!

[@TommyLiu4]

Hey thanks! Traction is decent, not crazy good but it gets the job done. For indoors only they should be okay, like so far my pair has some tiny scratches off the foam but no significant damage yet. It’s a very very good shoe in my opinion but again durability is a concern indeed, so that’s the downside.

[@richardmanalang267]

I am size 8 in immortality 2..what size if i buy tatum 1? What is the sizing of tatum 1? It is good for outdoor court?thank u..

[@TommyLiu4]

Tatum 1 fits true to size. If 8 is your normal size you can go with that, or 7.5 if you sized up with the Immortality’s. Not good for outdoors, bad durability.

[@EzequielAviles85]

@@TommyLiu4 Yea. I was surprised that i was able to go down a full size. I think going down half a size would have been fine also but a full size gave it a super snug one to one fit.

[@mondaymorning1]

It's weird to see that some brands can't produce a consistent rubber sole to prevent slipping on dustier courts. Li Ning and WoW are really far ahead of Jordan/Nike/Adidas nowadays when it comes to rubber compounds and all around traction. Time to copy from the Chinese I'd say.

[@TommyLiu4]

Oh yeah in terms of the type of rubber compound used, for better traction + durability, brands do need to take notes from Way of Wade 😂 They consistently deliver some of the best outsoles out there.
