Nike KD 4 “Year of the Dragon 2.0”

#basketballshoes #nike #sneakers
In this video we go over the Nike KD 4 retro this year - and this “Year of the Dragon” edition is simply an amazing colorway!
The KD 4 finally makes its return 12 years after the original release. In my opinion this is a perfectly crafted colorway with every intricate detail you’d want on a retro: from the special box, dust bag, color choices all the way to the dragon wrapping around the KD logo, and a small charm symbolizing the celebration of Chinese New Year. Performance wise, these feel light and fast on feet. My pair has great traction so far with decent cushion for its age and a nice court feel. Look for more KD 4s to release this year, including the most anticipated “Galaxy” colorway on Feb.15.
And let me know your thoughts on the KD 4 in the comments!

Thoughts on the KD 4’s return?? Can this colorway TOP all the crazy releases this month? 🤯

[@Hasty-ol7cb]

Yes fr this colour is awesome ❤

[@ab-15188]

CNY colorway never disappoints!

[@natewrld9397]

Finally a solid review for the KD4, THANK U

[@TommyLiu4]

🙏🙏

[@octopoops8527]

used to have one, creamsicle colorway. good shoe! light and good traction. lockdown is also good with that strap.

[@joehabersham]

The dragon stitching around the heel is my favorite details and the colorway is pretty sweet too. I’m torn whether I prefer the OG (blue model) or this one

[@TommyLiu4]

I feel the same! Both are amazing, this 2.0 probably has like a more visible Chinese New Year theme in it. I’m just a happy customer with this pair lol

[@More-Sauce-Man]

You know your having a successful career when you can play in retro re-released versions of your own shoes.

[@shsfootball628]

Man I really thought this was gonna get Protro’d. Amazing color way regardless, and to have and collect jsut for nostalgias sake

[@TommyLiu4]

Yeahh a Protro would have been nice - I wonder what they’ll do to the PG re-releases… 🤔

[@shsfootball628]

Oh baby, a full length zoom strobel or even just a forefoot turbo zoom……a man can dream so much

[@domdomayee]

Speaking both of us hitting on the Kobe 8s into existence

[@TommyLiu4]

🤞

[@TommyLiu4]

Trust me we both deserve a pair lol

[@ethanp8381]

These definitely a must cop for me Great review mann 🔥🔥

[@TommyLiu4]

Thanks man!!

[@KmtS9]

One of my all time faves and one of the shoes that got me into the shoe game before! The KD 5 were my fave hoop shoes though!

[@harlan5339]

Still my favorite shoe to hoop in since 2012.

[@user-je2gt8jl7i]

cant wait for the harden vol 8 to come out love the videos as always!!!

[@TommyLiu4]

🙏 Appreciate you watching!

[@samlee458]

🔥 nice cop! extra goodies are dope 👌🏻

[@SnkrsandCards]

I didn't like the cushioning of KD 4. It's not as comfortable but other than that It's a great shoe. I tend to switch back to my Jordan 36 about half way through my basketball sessions.

[@cynd3930]

Love the reviews. Any update on when the Liren 4 V2 low review might be coming? Looking forward to that a lot!

[@TommyLiu4]

Thank you!! I’ll put out the Liren 4 vid first then. Haven’t got the V2 in yet. 🙏😃

[@Aekokeebs]

hope you review the curry 4 retro , quality content as always!

[@owentran7641]

Wait so the KD 4s are the exact same shoe that was released in 2012 but a new color way? No new features?

[@revwarriors7749]

took an L this morning but going to pay resale for the galaxys all day

[@page1_cs]

Alrighty!!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@rickyocampo1798]

I have 2 pairs of KD4 back then,the sad part...UA pair only😢😅

[@zomgitsgabe1687]

Wish they did this for last year cuz I'm year of the rabbit 😢

[@Jim-Halp1234]

I wish they had improved these. I want the galaxy pair but the shoe just isnt very good compared to most shoes out now. Look great though

[@Roy-ml5fn]

That’s the main reason why I’m not getting the galaxy pair. Love how they look but it wouldn’t matter if they’re not comfortable to hoop in.

[@breudeu]

Any chance you can speak on any hot spots in the forefoot of the retro? When I played in them back in High School they were extremely narrow and caused major hotspots on my pinky toes. Will still probably attempt to cop but wanted to know your thoughts.

[@TommyLiu4]

Probably the same tbh - snug toe box with not much ventilation there.

[@asiansrule45]

These with zoom stroble 👌

[@Z-gotsoles]

It’s a cop🔥

[@raymondkusuma97]

Hey tommy, would you review 361 big 3 quick 4 pro? They said they feel like kobe 5 protro, im curious😂🙏

[@TommyLiu4]

Hey yeah sure. Umm no not at all 😅

[@israelnascimentodeoliveira3482]

Hey Tommy, one question here. In matters of cushion, is there any difference between the Liren 3 and the Liren 3 V2? Comparing to other shoes like the harden vol. 7, is it in the same level?

[@TommyLiu4]

Hey, for the Liren 3 I only have the V2 not sure sorry. Yeah same level, full-length BOOM is one of the best setups out there in my opinion.

[@bruhitzcow]

could you compare there to the kyrie low 4s?

[@user-gq1oe7ez5j]

Is it just me or do the kd 4s hurt ur ankle because mine do

[@user-mc2wd6yl2s]

In what website you buy it?

[@miragevictor9316]

Im a size 9.5 in the WOW All city V2's , how would you compare the sizing of these to the ACV2's?

[@TommyLiu4]

About the same

[@neevitaliya-bj8ct]

What would you recommend for outdoor court? And are giannis immortality 3 good for outdoor court or elevate 3? Thank you!!

[@TommyLiu4]

Giannis Immortality 3

[@sureshkoushick4433]

hey tommy curry 3z7 or giannis immortality 3?

[@TommyLiu4]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZm0fKynd89sesksi=TpmLv1plyCEbHTCr

[@donxshinobi]

Would you recommend sizing up half a size?

[@TommyLiu4]

Yeah

[@franklinfermin1999]

Half a size? I’m hearing a full size? 🤔

[@zoesh2441]

How’s the forefoot cushion compared to Sabrina 1s ?

[@TommyLiu4]

Slightly worse

[@zoesh2441]

Thanks. Do you know any insoles that can make up for the poor forefoot cushioning ?

[@TommyLiu4]

@@zoesh2441 Usually the Move Game Day insoles can really help - but I haven’t tried replacing them on these I think it might just be too stuffed inside for my feet…

[@JustKicks786]

tighter fit compared to KD16?

[@TommyLiu4]

Umm yes but they’re both pretty narrow.

[@lorenzofolli2674]

Do they perform similar to the kd 3?

[@TommyLiu4]

Yeah kinda

[@enman14]

Do they fit like the KD 3?

[@TommyLiu4]

Kind of

[@travischung4756]

will u review ar1?

[@TommyLiu4]

Yes

[@stephenjlopez8881]

Where we can cop?

[@TommyLiu4]

Feb. 7 on Nike & some retailers depending on your location.

[@mailonwilliams6864]

I can just look at your video how you look and can tell you def dont need no kd4s 😂 they let anyone win

[@danimalman3]

I have a very wide foot and to wear these I'd have to cut off my pinky toe

[@TommyLiu4]

True lol not for very wide feet for sure.

[@Mcali1984]

Nice to look at, but avoid to play. Not worth the tech. So much better for less.

[@arafanantoinegomissanha2255]

Site web to buy them

[@flairluxury1202]

Snkrs app

[@Tde_Kort6494]

@@flairluxury1202 you sure it’s available on the SNKRS app? I can’t find it. I do live in the Netherlands tho idk if that’s a problem.

[@Wladislav]

Keep those narrow shoes away from me!

[@mrzack888]

colorway is meh.

[@adriansato1]

Ew

[@faze_deutscheshitler2132]

Is the outsole durable for outdoors?

[@D3L3T3]

What are they doing to gum bottoms?! Older gum bottoms used to be no wipe. Now almost all gum bottoms need wipe like a translucent bottom. My sabrina 1s with gums have dead spots that are just 🧊 ⛸
