Nike GT Cut 3

#basketballshoes #nike #sneakers
In this video we go over the Nike GT Cut 3:
As a highly anticipated debut of Zoom X on basketball shoes, cushion did not disappoint - excellent responsiveness while also giving you a smooth ride. One thing we’ll keep an eye on is the foam potentially losing some of that sponginess over time. This outsole does pick up dust easily, but traction is still great in general since it isn’t difficult to wipe off the dust. Aside from the decent grips, this is also a super lightweight and minimal shoe with thin upper materials. As a result, breathability is excellent, but lateral containment can be a concern especially for more aggressive and heavier players. The GT Cut 3 fits true to size or half size down.
Let me know your thoughts on the new GT Cut in the comments!

Your thoughts on the new GT Cut?? 🟢 Cushion, Traction, Comfort & Breathability 🔴 Lateral Containment, Support for Heavy Players Thank you for watching!!

[@zoesh2441]

Forefoot cushion is ASS. Too low to the ground. No plushness or compression

[@shsfootball628]

Man all these gt releases I just another wave of retros of the Hyperdunk series….. or even a protro release???👀👀👀 a man can dream

[@blacksheep420]

+1 to that. Bring back Hyperdunks!

Love that ur videos are short great job does the job very informative

[@TommyLiu4]

Thank you! 🙏

[@tsquared4455]

I would say, these shoes are unique case of hits and misses. Currently at a local indoor gym, I noticed lighter weight, good containment, foam like spring, and insane traction. During playing, I feel It does require you to utilize a bit more basketball foot work and to be light on your feet. I'm still trying to break in the shoes, even though I've already played 2 games with it. For now, I think having, a light on your feel playstyle is truly where the current "potential" is at. I plan on pairing Move insoles with these to increase some stability and possibly more performance. Overall can't complain, there's still mystery to unlock for these shoes for now.

[@t23random]

Review is spot on, and matches with my experience. Think I need to wear thicker socks so there’s less wiggle room. One thing to add, I bought from Nike Australia, not Asian version, and was surprised that the outsole showed no sign of wear and tear after playing outdoor.

[@TommyLiu4]

🤝🤝 Oh I see! I wasn’t sure if it was because I got the Asia release but yes the outsole does seem pretty sturdy surprisingly.

[@AttaQ1]

Love all your reviews man. Thanks for doing what you do!

Thanks man!! Really appreciate that 🙏

Always great, Tommy!

[@newtonniu6999]

Love the video, how do you clean the front of the shoe tho

[@jchung1506]

Well done, Tommy. I still don’t know why Nike deviated from the original GT Cut. I was lucky enough to get a pair and they are great.

[@TommyLiu4]

👍👍

[@kermitlikesmemes9417]

hey Tommy, great vid! This shoe has huge potential and hopefully the next model will have a shank to increase durability. Which outlet did you find the cuts at? Whenever I go to Vaughan Mills the inventory isn't great.

[@TommyLiu4]

🙏 Premium Outlets, around 30-40% off, it was alright.

[@Mcali1984]

I like that you only put the shoe name in the title. Preferred. The video was 🔥. As always.

review for the anta zap 1s pls !

[@user-gr7vb8zl4j]

I got the gt cut 1s :)

[@KristianDowling]

Just give us the GT 1. Nothing needed to be improved or can be, except that insole texture that sticks to your socks. Other than that it’s a perfect shoe.

[@lastone87]

Damn, those purple pair are pretty dope!

[@TommyLiu4]

Right?!

[@D3L3T3]

Anybidy twist an ankle yet with these or the book 1? The way they are narrow in the back part of the shoe makes me feel like they will do just that

[@angbangis]

Amazing review as always! Considering the fit, cushion and impact protection - Would you choose this or the Liren 3 Low?

[@TommyLiu4]

Thank you! Liren 3 V2.

[@angbangis]

@@TommyLiu4 thanks! Looking forward to your Liren V4 Low review 🔥🔥🔥

[@y3l070]

Hey tommy!! how r u whats ur ranking on the gt line (inlcuding the jumps and hustles) thinking on getting pairs

[@TommyLiu4]

Hey, I don’t think I can rank them b/c of their expertise - so it really depends on your playing style and foot shape. GT Cut 3 - guards, GT Jump 2 - bigs, GT Hustle 2 - wide feet.

[@shantayabouie698]

Gt jump are the best

[@filipinosneakers1276]

Hey tommy, I already have the Lebron 20's and I'm planning in copping these I can't wait them to get on sale since they will definitely sold out quick once that happen, but anyway, should I get true to size on these or half size down? I have a narrow feet. thank you!

[@TommyLiu4]

Hey. Since you have narrow feet I think half size down might honestly be better. 😃

[@nanobreaker]

Hey just wanted to say great channel! My question to you is I have the Lebron 21, and the G.T Cut 3 (from a sale through a friend). Does the idea of using the G.T Cut 3 make sense as a warm up training shoe before using the Lebron 21's to hoop? Guard type of play on my end.

[@TommyLiu4]

Hey, thank you!! Yup I think so, sounds like a decent plan 😃 And I mean both shoes are excellent performers to me so for sure.

[@nanobreaker]

@@TommyLiu4 Thanks for the co sign. I also have a pair of lebron 20's (black red accent colorway) and just trying to figure out my rotation haha.

[@uncleant30]

Can you review the GT cut academy shoes also.

[@TommyLiu4]

Yes for sure!

[@AsianEyes007]

Would y’all say it’s worth the price? I was really tempted to get them because of the ZoomX midsole (kind of a historic shoe being the first ever *basketball* shoe that incorporated ZoomX). I thought that they looked pretty cool too, but I’ve seen and heard so many mixed reviews that I didn’t feel confident in getting them because of the steep pricing.

[@filipinosneakers1276]

Bruh we on the same situation, these ppl have mixed reviews and makes us in doubt in copping these joints.

[@MrSim-sl1ee]

Made some best basketball shoes 2024 so farr ..

[@TommyLiu4]

You read my mind

[@KristianDowling]

Looks like cause the GT Cut 2 didn’t sell well they blame the awesome loud colorways, so they decided to make these super boring, when really it was the awesome colorways of the 2 that made them sell at all!

[@uploadmeful]

waiting for the GT Cut academy

[@rayace8438]

If I wear true to size on the zoom freak 5,book1,lebron next gen, should I go true to size or down half size ?i like the 1 to 1 fit

[@TommyLiu4]

TTS

[@juliofirpo6657]

Are your pair an EP version? That could mean it was a wider last and could affect the fit.

[@TommyLiu4]

Yeah it is actually - good point! I’ll try to compare them soon.

[@juliofirpo6657]

@@TommyLiu4 🙇🏽‍♂️

[@jrdatrackstar]

Do you prefer these or the LeBron 21 overall? I prefer forefoot cushioning, traction on dusty courts, and heel lockdown. So far, my Tahitian LeBron 21 feels like it would win in 2/3 (still gotta break them in), whereas the Cut 3 felt like the forefoot cushioning might be thicker?

[@TommyLiu4]

Woo that’s a tough one. Overall I’d probably take the LeBron 21 if I have to pick one, and you’re right about 2/3 for the LeBron’s. Forefoot cushion I think both are adequate - if you have the LeBron’s already just be aware of the GT Cut 3’s minimal weight and thin upper possibly causing some containment issues. Otherwise both are fantastic really 😃

[@jrdatrackstar]

@@TommyLiu4 Awesome, thanks man! I love your reviews, and they usually always reflect the experiences that I have with shoes that I pick out as well! Right now I have the LeBron 21 and the GT jump 2, but I am starting to think that maybe I don’t need as much cushion that the Jump provides. I would be able to return them and get money back, and with the current Valentine’s Day sale, I would be able to get the Cut 3 for the same price. Or I don’t have to get a secondary shoe and just stick with the LeBron 21. So many options lol.

[@TommyLiu4]

@@jrdatrackstar Haha I know right 😂 Lots of options, in that case I’d honestly swap out the Jump for the Cut since you don’t need that much of a deluxe cushioning. But the LeBron’s are good enough indeed lol

[@tea3089]

Would you recommend the ja 1 or the gt cut 3

[@TommyLiu4]

GT Cut 3

[@Arihiroki_LG]

The fit on the gt cut 3 and academy are horrible, i just bought them on blind buy both for a total of 143 usd. bought my usual nike size, shoes were a tad bit long and suuuper snug. had issue putting them on cause i got wide midfoot with high arch. Cushion on both was stiff. Im a bit confused seeing reviewers able to bend their shoes but mines has no give like a full length shank

[@youngwang5546]

Does it fit less tight than lebron 20? I tried so many pairs of lebron 20 and could never get it to fit comfortably. Always a lot of cramping and numbness in the midfoot and toes.

[@TommyLiu4]

Yes

[@unohana304]

Hey tommy if you have to choose between the two. WOW 808 3 regular or GT cut 3? 🤔

How does the heel and forefoot cushion compare to the pg 6?

[@TommyLiu4]

Just cushion alone this is better. Overall I’d still take the PG 6.

[@m.1161]

That worries me a bit I’m a big guy too, I liked the immortalities though. Idc about cushion that much, just step in comfort. I’m done with zoom. I’ve popped every kind of zoom bag imaginable in a few months. Zoom strobel hurts my feet, hate that stuff, bad court feel too imo

GT Cut3 or AC12 Wade ?

Peba midsole has shorter lifespan than Eva midsole so ur probably right to be worried about longevity.

[@CoachMax12]

Failure, lateral containment is bad.. The Academy should be better in this regard.

[@kevincomia7364]

Too expensive yet you can’t even use it outdoors because it will loose outsole quickly. that’s why chinese brands are gaining popularity because they offer durable outsole.

[@Rei-0403]

Too expensive to hoop, there’s always better options with cheaper price, I think Nike is kinda late to put the ZoomX into a basketball shoe cause most Chinese brands like Li-Ning & Anta are already made their own Supercritical Midsoles with carbon fiber plate very well in their running & basketball shoes

[@TommyLiu4]

Either way I did really enjoy ZoomX here but yeah competition is fierce right now. Only a good thing for us 😁

[@Rei-0403]

@@TommyLiu4 Yep, that’s why I started to check out more basketball shoes from Chinese brands instead of Nike or Adidas

[@wifi0015]

As a new recent ni ling fan, the new gt cut is a goat release from nike. The make up of zoom x foam truly beats all Chinese foam so far in the market. The only win for the chinese brands so far is the consistent traction that they have given us but other than that nike is destroying everyone with the x zoom setup
