As a foot doctor I look at basketball shoes and basketball sneaker technology a bit differently as I focus more on what foot types benefit from these shoes as well as the basketball shoe's functional attributes on the basketball court
Some of the main areas we cover in this basketball shoe playtest, teardown and performance review are:
- The weight, durability, fit and playability
- What are the features of the insole, midsole, and outsole
- Li-Ning basketball shoe technology explained

At the end, you showed the yushuai 18 ultra x, is it more bouncy that the JB 2 or wow 10s?

[@timtaz417]

Out of curiosity do you get paid to review these shoes?

[@kyleanderson8670]

He literally says at the start of the video that it is by no means sponsored, meaning that he is not getting paid, but he did get the shoes for free.​@@timtaz417

[@ishu57]

love how detailed your videos are

[@tristanscipio]

Glad to see someone talking about this shoe love my pe black red pair haven't had a chance to really test them on the court but love the feel

[@jonathonlv]

LOVE LOVE LOVE your channel! Thanks for all the info you put out! I got the NB Two Wxy V4 because of your video and I regret NOTHING! It would be interesting to see a video going over shoes you re-purchased in order to actually play in and keep! Thanks again

[@randomcrits7321]

Really looking forward to the Kai 1 review ❤

[@HMNBNG]

This is the true definition of in-depth shoe review 🔥 Thank you Dr Zach ❤ keep up the good work! 💪

[@FootDoctorZach]

I appreciate you

[@AllenStaagata]

Great explanation as always. Looking forward on Lining Liren 4 low. 🙏🏻.

[@Khyberization]

My, 5'10.5" (without shoes) 13 (nearly 14) year old son just got his. I got him them after your review. He plays pg for a high end team. He did have a pair of fission 8s which he loved, but he killed them a while ago, and wasn't hyped about the 9s. We almost got the all city 12 but held off, after he got his Currys when we needed them fast. He uses the Lebron 21 for his practices, and his Currys for game or the occasional practice he wants to go crazy on. The problem he has is that the Lebrons are chunky, with no court feel, and the grip lacking, but the Currys have no cushion, and his feet hurt if he uses them regularly for practice. He also realizes that the Labrons have more vert. He says the JB2s are the perfect combination of the two. He now wants another pair just so when his ones die, he has another, as he can't imagine them getting better. I told him to hold on, plus we don't know what size his feet will be in 6 months when he's destroyed these.

[@LordVlad2321]

Great review Dr. Zach 💪🏿🧠💯

[@lukepratti9228]

Love the vids doc i get all my sneakers based off of your reviews! i LOVE the NB Fresh Foam BB V2 what a mouthful 😂

[@Shawn-jf2us]

The JB2 looks and sounds like it's a great 2way player shoe!

[@fabienyoon6075]

Hello i am quite new to the channel but love your review on all the shoes i was wondering can you do a review on anta shockwave 5 V2. Very much appreciated. Keep up the great content

[@xrisingchaosX]

Amazing review as usual!! Is there a chance you could do the Asics Nova Surge Low? I primarily use Nike/Jordan, but I branched out to Way of Wade due to your reviews. They are now my favorite shoes to go to. I feel like the Nova Surge Low may be one of the best shoes I have hooped in as well. Edit: Posted from wrong account initially

[@douglasrappin2892]

Love the addition of the in-flare degree measurement! thanks! Do you think a low volume heel would suffer from slippage even after break in?

[@FootDoctorZach]

More than others yeah

[@mofeosanyintolu2443]

These seem really really good for volleyball as well - hope I can get my hands on a pair and test it out. Li Ning is usually tough for me cause I had so much trouble finding a good fit with the WOW 10 cause my feet are wide but I think I'll jump on these or the new Harden's.

[@kennyoffhenny]

Hey, just recently saw a couple of your videos. Could you make a video comparing the Kobe’s to newer shows like the NB Two Wxy 4 or Anta Shockwave 5? I noticed you’ve recommended the last 2 quite a bit, however I also noticed that the Kobe’s were the most popular shoe in the last season… not sure if that’s just due to sponsorships or if the Kobe’s are a better performing shoe. Thanks!

[@valcius0]

Hey, doc! Can you do a review on the serious player only player one + model?

[@yahchaigad5766]

Do you have the Tatum 2 in your upload schedule soon? Wondering if they can be used outdoor…

[@Yanzai22]

Doc please make a review about the curry splash 24, love the vid!

[@michaelp9061]

Like the color ways they did for Jimmy. . Both gen.

[@av.171]

Hello doctor Zach i got a question, what shoe do you recommend that's lightweight bouncy, has really good traction durability, and all right lockdown? Also, I have a flatter arch, and I'm a guard.

[@gyrozeppeli5628]

Lining and Anta started to make indoor only friendly shoes, not a good sign

[@mikalokasso]

JB-1 was already like that

[@Bliu2th]

Some models like the signatures are mainly indoor now but the non signature shoes are still heavily outdoor based shoes

[@theGalaxyfox75]

Ikr...not cool

[@rakfav____]

Don't worry, China is still their main market, outdoor durability is still one of the main focus, especially in asia where most of the time they play outdoor, there is still lot of other options from Asian brand for outdoor durability (anta, asics, lining, etc)

[@truthnotfeelings]

Not something to worry about yet. Nevertheless you are right, it’s definitely something to keep an eye on 👀 Vote with your money

[@saiscestlavie6164]

Is there anyway that you could give a review or a dismantling of the Jordan Turner? Is came out like 2019

[@zense7721]

wait till doc sees what they did to the WOW 11s😂😂😂

[@aidanlswadling2481]

what did they do?

[@billchen303]

Love my jb1

[@exandgr8]

What's the most bounciest shoes for you until now? I'm thinking of replacing my Puma TRC Blaze Court? Tnx

[@JDNReviews]

Hi doc! Just wanted to suggest, can you place a Celcius conversion of the temperature? That would be great for us who watch outside the US. 😅

[@user-co1bb4jp6r]

The shoe reminds me of the AJ36 lows for some odd reason especially the shape and material used for the upper,

[@user-ft6ii2yt1j]

Was that the yushuai 18 at the end?? 👀

[@harvsdavid4677]

Hi,, can you do a review of the basic basketball shoes.? Gelburst 27❤ thank you very much

[@wu1908]

very curious, almost minimal damage to the sole by sandpaper, doesn't it make it super durable (a five on your rating maybe?), and also ok for outdoor courts?

[@liamcorcoran1197]

Hi, so are you saying to follow li ning’s size chart becuase with their chart i go up 1/2 a size or to go your usual size?

[@psyren0157]

Can you do review of jordan stay loyal 2 and 3?

[@JulseRay]

Hey zach, what about the DVD 2?

[@icaruzz768]

Do the Move insole fit in them?

[@jsmith3143]

Can you do a video for the best shoes out rn for flat feet. I need arch support my dr said. I got injured recently and I’m into Jordan’s and stuff. She said I need a solid shoe like with a plate inside.

[@MNj23apo1]

Hey Zach, great review as always!! A question not in regards to this video, For the All city 12, would you recommend going up half a size for a medium foot planning to use them with the zamst A2 or would you say go ing TTS will be ok?

[@FootDoctorZach]

I usually dont go up sizes for the Zamst unless you're right inbetween sizes

[@MNj23apo1]

@@FootDoctorZachThanks Doc, yeah I'm actually a 10.5 haha 😆 so would you say going TTS with the All city 12 + the zamst brace will be fine?

[@federers6711]

Zach can you review the new ON Roger clubhouse please.

[@LAURENTE23]

Can you do a review in the new anta kai 1?

[@spencerkogut107]

I second this request

FINALLY!!!!!!!!

[@felipetodeschini5890]

Hey, Zach! How are you doing? Hope you're doing great! Zach, what of these shoes is better to help you jump higher: Li-Ning JB2, 361 AG4 or 361 BIG3 Future?

[@FootDoctorZach]

I honestly don’t see a huge difference between them

[@felipetodeschini5890]

@@FootDoctorZach thank you so much for your prompt response, as always! Appreciate it!

Wow10 vs Jb1 or jb2? I have the wow 10 and Jb1....how does this compare to the 2 others?

Great video Doc...would you say this shoe is better than the way of wade all city 12s?

Just different- no one better than the other

I hoop you will prepair for Li-Ning Gamma 1 soon. It will be the lightest basketball shoes in 2024

[@FootDoctorZach]

I have a link in my description

[@martimsilva6103]

Hey doc, in previous videos you mencioned that a shank is something to be looking for in case of snake bitten foot like plantar fasciitis(my case), but then i got the trc blaze courts that have a realy supportive shank and the pain is still there, tried putting some orthodics and the pain hast gone away. Do you think i should be looking for a more forgiving type of shank?

[@FootDoctorZach]

Impossible to tell without an exam

[@Southern1984]

Which one jb1 or Jb2

[@usedblazers]

Here’s are two good ideas: • Lebron 9 retro review • US vs EP/PF version of a Nike basketball shoe

[@abe.font105]

foot doctor please review kawhi 4

[@AddOnKicks]

The JB1 is my favorite shoe to play in right now, so I was disappointed to see them diverge so much with the 2s. This review is cranking my FOMO all the way up now though 😅

[@fmojares]

Review lining yushuai 18 regular doc i love the valentine cw

[@fmojares]

Just waiting for the review before i buy it haha

[@majorcalloway2234]

289.99 for this show 😮 wow that higher then Jordan

[@soledoutreviews]

Me personally any heal slip at all and I’m not keeping a shoe around

[@allenlu4213]

Can these tennis though, they were marketed as tennis shoe-inspired

[@FootDoctorZach]

I’m sure they can but the treads will really take a beating and they may stick a bit at the beginning

[@jjpellergene466]

those insoles are the same as in li nings premium badminton shoes...

[@agemre]

I just wish Li-Ning would be accessible more to Europe

[@aswinnayak8147]

Exactly. Same for Asia

Im trying to get them now but who knows

Would you recommend putting the move gameday pro insoles in these or keep the insoles that come with the shoe?

[@FootDoctorZach]

Everyones different

[@ianwebb2184]

PLEASE DR ZACH LIREN IV V2 LOW!!!!

[@rokdvornik5130]

A pure copy of the Nike GT cut 2, to my eyes

These seemed interesting until I saw that $300 price tag 😂😂 I don't know who they think they are with that, when I can get a Lebron 21 or KD 16 etc on sale right now for under $100.

Cool shoes but you failed to mention they are over 200 dollars and not available widely . These prices are getting ridiculous

[@FootDoctorZach]

[@Few_Proud_Emotional]

They look really nice and sounds like they play really well but on no universe am I paying 200+$ for those where I love they even run 300+ 🗿

[@kyleanderson8670]

$140, if you get them from weidian.

[@polong99]

Others already can achieved bounce just with foam without zoom unit but Nike still using archaic tech

[@NotHereToHelp21]

Zoom is old yet it’s still the best thing out. Especially with the newer iteration like zoom turbo or zoom Strobel.

[@FootDoctorZach]

It just depends what you want- zoom has a different feel from foam which some like- some don't

[@raya472]

As I said before, these Chinese shoes companies will eventually knock off nike and adidas.

[@xylozr1054]

they will never ever take over the casual shoe game but they already have taken over the hoop shoe game

[@adamyeoman6613]

Has anyone seen the price tag on these? Unreal. Running almost $300 in cold hard loonies here. Unexceptable. Hard times all over the world, and jimmy Butler knows hard times. You'd think he'd know that's too much for struggling families. That's trust fund parents kids $
