[@vincenthunterdfw]

The court feel on the Sabrina’s is like a low riding convertible

[@NateBall23]

Do u have them?

[@vincenthunterdfw]

@@NateBall23 yea I have 2. The West coast roots pair is great. I’m not sure if I’ve broken in my id pair yet, but when I wear them they don’t feel as good, but that’s probably because I haven’t worn them as much so far.

[@anthonywarry]

I agree with the Jordan 38s, they're amazing. The only thing I find an issue is sometimes the soft heel is a little unstable for my 43 year old ankles. When I'm a bit sore in the ankle region I wear my Freak 5s which are solid in the heel. KD15s are amazing, I don't suffer from heel slip, Might have to get myself a pair of 16s. I do find my feet burn up really hot with the KiDs because they're so soft.

[@fredraras9359]

Great list brah! 🤙🏾 I literally wore my Sabrina 1 By You, for the first time last night for balling in. All I can say is WOW! So comfy right out the box! The React foam with Zoom in the forefoot feels nice! And you feel very low to the ground with enough support and responsiveness! Just like you said, you’ll love these especially if you’re a guard! Plus I love how I was able to make them in a Kobe/Laker colorway! Will be making more soon! 🏀

[@riza2tuff]

I see the boxes in the background a sneacker collection vid would go hard ngl

[@ErnaMcburna]

Sabrina 1’s for the win, I liked them so much I got a second pair

[@ErnaMcburna]

Never had a pair of those I couldn’t answer that honestly

[@ErnaMcburna]

@@unofreazok will do I was going to order a pair they didn’t have my size at the time…I’ll try harder

[@ArjunKumar-gj4dy]

Wow 10 low not being here is criminal but great list overall love ur vids

[@Wladislav]

Out of your top 5 I think I'd rank the Harden 7 and LeBron 21 the highest. Personally, I think the AG4 are nigh unbeatable due to the price vs performance balance.

[@jXnasswaggin]

I love Ur Vids, i watch every Video and i just wann say that u r 1 of my favourite Yotubers please never stop youtube 🙏❤ i love u

[@tbsbloodheist8986]

agree with kd16. didn't like it at first. tried to played it more and its fantastic. the most secure shoes on the list for me.

[@johnnyjoestar-jd2tw]

should i get kd16 over all city 11 v2

[@tbsbloodheist8986]

@@johnnyjoestar-jd2tw i haven't tried the all city. if you are fine with a snug fit shoes, get kd16. for its sizing, its better if you go to a shop and fit it than buying online. i bought mine half size up for reference. very snug but careful going a full size up. not recommended imo.

[@duck__dodgers__5294]

The only issue with the Sabrina’s is the torsion support. I think this stresses my foot out since I’m not used to playing a shoe that flexible. I have some move game day pro insoles coming in that I think will help with this

[@DGHoops]

They will, trust me.

[@andrewneuman20]

I got the reverse grinches for christmas😊

[@rahulminocha9078]

Deciding between sabrina 1s and ae1s any tips (dont care about athstetics

[@rjwong1678]

Hey dg just wanted to say I love your content on TikTok and yt

[@DGHoops]

Thank you so much!

[@michaelwatterson7339]

Great call on number one!

[@Lemueladriano]

Hi dg! U think the immortality reached the top 10?

[@macroclicker4660]

sabrina 1 or ae 1 should i take for very wide and flat feet?

[@randzcuacoyes1214]

Maybe 1. harden 2. Sabrina

[@buzzrdfuzzy]

What are your thoughts on the player 1 plus

[@ibanneheromaclang8889]

Hello bro. I just want to ask if you have tried jordan 38 xdr version and if does have separation?

[@boatjt5178]

Can you make a tutorial on how to clean hoop shoes?

[@markhutton366]

Not the reverse grinches is crazy

[@NgocTuanNghiaTrinh]

would u reccomend the jas 1 or the sabrina one? I am a pointguarfd and thinking what i hsould buy.

[@KosarNagyLukacs]

Sabrina 100%

[@lifesgood1313]

ja1 100%

[@PRMBALLIN_CLAN]

What about the AD1 where would you put them?

[@joeycorcoran4763]

For quality of shoe and performance I think LeBron 21 is the best

[@Jesse_rblxYT]

Last week I ordered the AC 11 v2 in the sky colorway!

[@dvn._9]

hey dg, did you see a big difference between the translucent vs solid Sabrina 1s?

[@DGHoops]

No but personally I like the solid outsoles!

[@Mkmagic2]

DG realistically do you think that the ae1 would have made the top 5 or honorable mention because I was thinking of getting a pair since my Sabrina's starting to lose its traction

[@DGHoops]

Holistically yes they’d be at least an honorable mention. For $120 the entire shoe is very nice

[@loveland5376]

​@@DGHoops What size do you recommend getting in the Lebron 21 Abalone pearl if my tts 11.5. Do the Abalone pearls run small and need a half size up? Or true to size for Abalone Pearls are fine?

[@botzy3465]

DG I needed your advise i got the lebron 21s like a month ago in an Nike outlet and was having some problem with them (such as the rubber outsole tearing up) so should i return and get a pair of kd 16 aunt pearls or should wait of a better upcoming drop ? Love your vids man keep up the good work.

[@mir5408]

The kd16s are unbelievable especially the aunt pearls that color is crazy

[@A_b_c810]

What about the kd 16 I just got them, the aunt pearl colorway I tried them twice and like them but a little heel slipping is that normal for the shoe to start?

[@semv957]

nxxt gen or ja 1?

[@laselecta9012]

Nice!

[@GNR.]

Does the Sabrina 1s feel kinda bouncy? or are bouncy?

[@randzcuacoyes1214]

No

[@Jawa-d6b]

where would the reverse grinches have ranked on the list

[@brianhall8489]

34s are one of the best hoop shoes ever !!

[@royner-hk6gf]

Do you think the Lebron 21 can hold up outdoors? (I'm an explosive player)

[@proxima9415]

yeah it sure is

[@jjoshuaoliva]

is the way of wade 10 white dragon translucent traction good dg?

[@DGHoops]

Yes!

[@jjoshuaoliva]

have u played with it in a dusty court? i have the city of angels cw, tractions on them were black and a dust collector . slippery at first session just needed alot of break in time after my 2nd session they were sticking

[@FloridaSharkMan]

No Kobe 6 reverse grinch?

[@DGHoops]

Why would it be eligible? It’s a shoe from 2010!

[@thek0ng466]

can freak 5 play outdoor?

[@bobbuilder4422]

You shouldve got the aj 38 with xdr solid rubber

[@hoodiejayray7624]

what about the gt cut 2

[@playerhpmulti3297]

Zoom freak 5 Are sooo good. Top tier traction Top tier stability And very comfortable🔥🗿🍷

[@lilnobodygaming804]

What about the AE 1?

[@DGHoops]

Please watch the entire video so you can hear me talk about it.

[@w0nkersisB0nkers]

blud really got the jordan 38s 💀💀💀

[@NgocTuanNghiaTrinh]

woykd u reccomend the wow 11v2 or the wow 12??

[@kbe9808]

way of wade 808 ultra? thought it was a good shoe I brought it

[@DGHoops]

I’m trying to see where I said it was bad!

[@flokage4707]

Ja 1s or Sabrina 1s?

[@Martin.Batman]

What about the wow 3

[@pedrorussomanno821]

Lebron 20 or kd 16?

[@showtimealyy]

i like the ja 1 but the back of the shoe hurts my leg

[@volleyballshoes]

I thought wow 10 would be the first 😢

[@alphaGaming3705]

😍😍😍😍

[@AsianEyes007]

The Hardens Vol. 7 are absolutely my favorite basketball shoe of 2023, the traction, cushion, and security around the ankle feel amazing. Though I will say that the biggest knock on these shoes will be that that you’ll sacrifice substance for style in one department, in that the shoe is insulated and not breathable (which is ironic because it’s a basketball shoe based off a puffer jacket). Luckily I’m not one of those people that have their socks drenched after a hoop sesh, but I know that hot and sweaty feet will be a problem for a some people.

[@marquesmcpeck746]

Those Hardens look like a modernized version of the shoes that made Kobe leave adidas, ugly as hell

[@RonenHoang]

facts

[@rylan1238-q3f]

Reverse grinches?????!?!!!!!??!!?

[@DGHoops]

The Kobe 6 released in 2010 and the Protro a couple of years ago. It’s not eligible.

[@Striderthedripper_]

I thought Kobe 6 would be #1

[@SamuelAndrew-l9h]

yessir

[@alexng3836]

does your sabrina 1 what the ID have a blue or purple base? i can’t tell. i’m trying to make the same one right now but i can’t make the base and heel a different color

[@jerey1702]

wow 808 3?

[@chrismarcelomedia3218]

Curry 11s?

[@FaZeMongraaI35]

bro you passed gt cut 2

[@scoot-casts]

gt cut 2 has no shank plate, it's bad

[@mrbird529]

Sabrina 1s are extremely underrated, and lebron 21s are ugly they dont look better than all city 12

[@NoahHome27.0]

Luka 2s?

[@avsha9884]

Wow 10 low?????

[@pyroimpact-bb9wg]

yuh

[@AleksKorniienko]

бурят, не міг список під відео дописать

[@ralphjasonestella4277]

Nahhhh... this guy never try the wow 10..
