361° AG4: Big Strengths, Small Weaknesses

#basketballshoes #aarongordon #sneakers
Don’t forget to enter my GIVEAWAY on IG!!
In this video we go over the AG4, Aaron Gordon’s 4th signature shoe with 361 Degrees:
Cushion and traction are both top-tier. This is a bouncy shoe with decent comfort and responsiveness throughout the midsole. On both clean and dusty courts, the grip is arguably THE BEST out of all basketball shoes that I have played in this year. Fit is true to size; length and width are about average; there’s no heel slippage or containment issues. Maybe the quality of the upper materials is a small concern, but given the price - I have not much to complain about…
Let me know your thoughts on the AG4 in the comments!

Will the Joker sign with them?? AG4: 🟢 Traction, Cushion, Containment 🔴 Materials Thank you for watching!!

[@jkwok.1]

Crazy how one of the best players in the league doesn’t have a signature shoe 🧐

[@f1tzy_469]

@@jkwok.1 the reason is that he isn't really someone that people look up to and want to become, as he is an unathletic (I know he has some areas he excels in but in terms of raw athleticism? come on.) 7 footer. His game also isn't as exiting or electrifying as other players, like Steph or Bron.

Hey Tommy, can you make a review on the 361 Degrees Big3 4 quick, probably one of the most good looking and one of their best performance budget shoes, very comparable to the GT Cut 1's IMO.

I think that mostly has to do with the cheap materials like you said - I’ve never had a shoe from 361 Degrees that had high quality, soft and conforming materials… 😂 If it’s a sharp pain I’m afraid it might be hard to go away tbh, cause that was the issue for me on their DVD 1.
