Best basketball shoe I’ve played in, I think, EVER! The comfort right out of the box is amazing, the ample space in the toe box is a thing of beauty, cushioning, lock down, everything, I really have no complaints. So good I bought another pair to keep stashed cause when you find something this good you gotta have back up

Just copped last week. Used for the 3rd time today, grippy, comfy on the toes and secure heel lockdown (Dons had my heel popping out even laced tight). It was so hard to find ANY shoe with a wide toe box, loving these

Honestly, I just want to say thank you for all that you've been providing for the shoe community, and to those like me who have ankle/foot issues. I was in the Army and I had tons of issues with my feet and ankles over the duration of 5 years. I tore my ATL ligament in my left foot several times in service, and throughout that time I've suffered many severe ankle/foot sprains. Not only the pain that I go through, but every so often it's like my foot just seems weak. I try to implement different things such as different ankle braces, orthotics', and I've tried different stretches and recovery methods. Not a lot works, but even though my doctors know about this situation I want to avoid surgery incase it causes permanent damage. I have found that watching your videos I have learned so much more about the shoes that are out there that could potentially help me by simply watching your videos. I enjoy all the content, knowledge, examples, and break down of all the technology. My successes in avoiding hurting my ankle more has all come from watching and learning from you, for that I am grateful. However, I wish you could do a single video explaining ATL ligament damage, how to avoid it better, how to help heal it more, and what shoes you'd recommend for a guy like me with this issue. I'm, 5'10", 225, and I nearly have flat feet with a minor/average arch. Anyways, I just wanted to say thank you Doctor Zach, and may God bless you with all that you do.

I have always been a fan of Nike shoes BUT my right foot can't fit in any of it (KD,PG,JORDAN,GT 🥲) it's too narrow. Adidas provides choices which fit my feet due to its wider fore foot space. I interest in Dame 8 because its cushion. I love impact protection and this is just right.

Whatever the performance stats are, they are my first and I like them. I got them protected, so I think that makes up for the damage weakness. I have practice tomorrow, so I'm going to test them.
