After all these years I still feel like a 90s kid on a Saturday morning when I see one of y’all’s reviews pop up on my feed, especially when it’s a brand new model! Love the education, transparency & flat out honesty! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@lucianobueno6967]

It's only the body that keeps aging up... The spirit still closer to that child. Amem.

[@jacoba15100]

Hope to have mine this Friday! At 40, that cushion is very important! Especially when you’re a “short rebounder”.

[@robbierichgannon25]

As a 240 lbs 33 year old, i can appreciate these. Kinda weird to me how Nike sells work, in Canada they weren't member exxlusive, i actually got them last week without a membership.

[@BruisedWithBanners]

As a 90's kid, I remember the smell of new sneakers and can relate to Chris when he does that; also, I clearly remember 90s Nike sneakers had better foam and the herring bone traction was omnipresent on all Bball shoes and the compound was softer and comfortable af.

[@CDaTyrant]

Reminds me of an updated and revised version of the LeBron 17 because of the zoom pods and rear cushion switch from air max to react. Glad to hear the GT Run will return albeit under a new name and to hit all three I’ll just say that the first GT cut should always be in production in its OG form. That shoe was amazing.

[@AlayeDaaji]

I love these. They look like a cross between the GT Run, GT Jump, Jordan 34s, and Lebron 19 Lows. Definitely an intriguing shoe. I also think these would be a great fit for OG Annuoby. He's always wearing the LeBron 19 lows. Looks like a shoe for a shifty guard / wing that also plays great defense.

[@by_run]

Interesting shoe. Will check these out once they release. Awesome review as always! 🔥🔥🔥

[@acatl33]

getting back to ballin at my local ymca, ran into your channel the knowledge the production value is immaculate. Keep on the great content, just sold me on this pair 🫡

[@zoesh2441]

Played in these yesterday. It’s like walking on a bouncy trampoline. Elite cushioning and surprisingly it has stability. Was able to play comfortable defense and shifty offense without feeling like I was tipping over or about to roll my ankle. Idk how Nike did it but they did it. These are way better than the GT Jump 1s and the GT Cut 2s. The only shoe that I think can outperform these are the Jordan 38s

[@billygumdrops]

Traction is 🗑️

[@THHorne3]

Thanks for the review Chris! I'm a guy who prefers midcut shoes, and most "midcut" these days really aren't. Also, I have a bulkier build, so these shoes fit the bill for what I'm looking for. Shoutout for mentioning the Air Flight Turbulence!!! I had those back in the 1997-98.

[@retrobjordan]

I love how you mentioned those Nike Air Flight Turbulence heel tap! Those are so 96-97 era.Another classic review would be for the Nike Air Zoom Flight Five. Amen brother Chris ;)

[@gazzabethyname]

Very cool shoe. The foam looks so squishy and nice. Will have to check these out.

[@LL-mj7pz]

MAN once I seen the thumbnail on this I couldn’t and I mean COULD NOT wait! Then I missed it for 2 days cause of work I’m so ready for these lite version cause I love Jokic why I got them but man I need a shift shoe for the big man

[@RogerinFinland]

I got them a couple of days ago and they feel great. I think that they'll be great for my knees!!

[@antoniorogers3947]

I need to order those next weekend I love those

[@renef6101]

Just bought the black ones. And wow. Amazing. I have a drop foot from an Injury and helps a lot to walk

[@paulturner1693]

Great vid as usual, one thing to mention is that this is the shoe choice of Nikola "The Joker" Jokic!!

[@lorenzyatco7207]

i got one yesterday! i think this is awesome! cushion is great!

[@itzreece6347]

These are a must have for me. I got the joker versions last year and were extra comfy. 😎

[@darrelloneill7108]

I've been waiting for these! I can't wear the first version a 12 is super snug on my foot. I'm going to order a 13 this time around. Can't wait to play in these.

[@yesmanyrangel9328]

Man I want to try these on! The tech on these are crazy!

[@Swooshman_3]

Air Turbulence= Damon Stoudamire’s!! He’s the player I associate with them the most. I had a pair & LOVED THEM! From a time when Nike Basketball ran things. Thanks for that Chris.

[@hoodtaleswithconehead1133]

Im a Nike Member i just ordered the Scorpions definitely getting a pair of the G.T 2

[@Nosignature]

Jesus! Those look insane!!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@blazing4Christ]

Don't sleep on these, they're 🔥🔥🔥 I've had mine for a couple of weeks and they're really good!! I've got 4 pairs of the GT Jump 1's (that's how much I liked them), but these are next level.

[@borisfishman7553]

What are the points that you think are better?

[@blazing4Christ]

@borisfishman7553 I find these are more comfortable, have better court feel, grippy, I feel my foot is more contained while still keeping the extensive cushioning and support. I didn't think they could improve on the 1's, but they did. These have become my go-to shoes for games/scrimmage

[@BruisedWithBanners]

Air Flight Turbulence! I had those as s kid in the 90's, played everyday on those, sick kicks! 🏀

[@vlh3448]

Played in these a few times right now, and I love it. Cushioning is the softest I’ve tried, so heavier players with foot problems are going to be fine. Lighter players, look elsewhere. You’re not going to maximize the features of this shoe. The bounce that you get from those zoom pods are amazing too. You will surely jump higher with this shoe. Running was also better compared to the Jump 1s, but since you’re pretty high off the ground due to that thicc sole/cushion, it’s not better than other low or mid top shoes.

[@KJK51192]

This exactly what I was looking for. I’m a relatively built dude and 6’2, with that plus my play style (plus the fact I broke my right ankle years ago) I really look for cushioning and sneakers built for bigger guys

[@vlh3448]

@@KJK51192 i have a lot of ankle probs myself but i was ok in the Jump2. Though the height and the mid-cut ankle support might be a concern if u have really bad ankles. Moving laterally was ok, but if ur going top speed trying to keep up with shifty guards, beware.

[@KJK51192]

@@vlh3448 appreciate the feedback. Let’s keep our ankles healthy lol

[@GreekSneakCollector]

Aesthetically they look massive and overall better from the previous Jump. The quality and the technology of the shoe have been upgraded without sacrificing the performing.

[@erico6117]

These might be the sleeper of 2023. For the money and what kind of insane technology your getting its a smart buy. The shoes will adapt to your constant movements and it will predict your muscles tensions from foot foundation all the way to your Achilles. It’s an amazing shoes. Nike zoom technology just got a big update. 💪

[@craiggorman1685]

Cool little detail is the mini swoosh incorporated in the large swoosh

[@Tha_Stash_House]

As a post player, I love shoes that have stability 💯

[@BatMobile23]

Yo the kwid leonard cut scene was hilarious 😂

[@emmanuelgilmore3944]

I like that Surefire colorway in the black ones are nice to Nike react in the soul

[@ADeleven]

I absolutely LOVED the first ones! I have bad grandpa knees and the GTJump1s left my knees with zero aches after long plays.

[@filipeschroeder7243]

Im a brazilian with old knees too. I know your pain. Small/medium fissures on my cartilage. So i bought AJ 36 low in this year and helped my jump, and my pain too. The gt jump 2 are better than de AJ 36? Or similar to the lebron xx?

[@ADeleven]

@@filipeschroeder7243 GT Gut 2s are similar to 1s I'd say as far as cushions/knee protections. But better stability I'd say since they're slightly lower. Lebron xx are much less cushion imo. Tudo bem my friend (my ex was a Brazilian lol) 🙏

[@jamaalherodsr564]

I love comfort... so that's a cop for me... checkin the box ✔️

[@ronbrooks6547]

I ordered a pair. I love the style and way it looked and seems to be best for the ankle. As I age I only like the shoes that seem good for the ankle and heel. That’s why I can’t hoop in the LeBron Shoes no more. Every time he had a foot or ankle issue I did as well. It’s more of a low top whereas this GT 2 seems to have just as much cushion or more with better ankle support and stability.

[@aekksunkittisathantriphop6989]

I just saw the classic one and that was awsome

[@remytron83]

Great vid! I think I'll be buying these as my next hoop shoe. I'm impressed by all of the cushion and tech. Can't wait to try them.

[@sherronthejedi]

Man speaking of traction. I used to love the air jordan 21's hearingbone patern DNA traction

[@strallent]

I'm definitely getting it! Looks like a Jordan but comfortable.

[@wolverine2551]

Amazing shoe, bought one pair, definitely add some vertical, helps protecting the foot and the heel, it is stable and has good outdoor endurance. Its actually rewarding you for jumping and moving fast, more power and speed you create it helps you jump higher, you just need to get used to it since it adds like 1.5 inches once you put them on. Walking around in them is like walking on clouds. Really really good shoe, maybe its not for everyone, but for heavier one or two foot jumpers or runners its absolutely amazing. Im 6.4 240 and its amazing. I went up half a size and its perfect after breaking in.

[@paddyvega]

So buy them half a size up

[@Basil_Kehoe]

I have the originals and now the 2s and I prefer the 2s over the originals. The heel feels much better in my opinion.

[@firemanprice]

Love my pair, I have the other color way. These are a big man dream sneaker for playing down in the post. Your knees will thank you.

[@russellgray1917]

It's a little tight, but it works.....That's what she said! All kidding aside, if these are anything like the Air Turbulence, they will be a pretty good shoe. Saw em on the Nike site, I think that I want to see em in hand before I decide. Thanks for another dope video from Weartesters.

[@maskedd4320]

Yes I am really interested in the shoes they look beautiful

[@Everydaykaen]

Sheesh good review

[@losbrock]

Really dig what Nike is doing with the bball line. A mix of heavy tech looking shoes with these and more lifestyle looking with deldon (w/ great tech), book, Freak and Ja. Hopefully Ja and Book have great tech since Freak seems lacking. Also these have a evolutionary Lebron look if they hadn't switched it up.

[@LT684]

This looks really good. Can't wait for the review because I'm wondering how the cushioning affects court feel since it rides pretty high off the floor.

[@nassiglutt6587]

For sure court feel was traded for cushioning but the good thing is it's stable as chris said. With that full length zoom strobel, i'm actually waiting for a good colorway

[@RE1GN_BLOOD]

These look beast right here. Pretty much Nike’s flagship at this point

[@greendro6410]

These are 🔥🔥🔥

[@CORP86]

Honestly this shoe looks like it can become a classic down the line like how we look at some nike bball shoes from the 90s, today

[@ajshaw2169]

Oh I gotta get these

[@DavidRodriguez-rz7lb]

Not gona lie these are dope 😊

[@CETAWS6427]

I just got these today. Not sure why I got these but I like how they look. They just look different to me.

[@emmanuelgilmore3944]

The shoe looks mad comfortable

[@kill1052]

Goat channel...

[@emmanuelgilmore3944]

Fire 🔥 Colorway

[@dreamcast64_cl36]

They look better than the 1s as well. Can't wait for a nice cw to try them.

[@gigidope]

Just ordered white/sail/safety orange version. They were on sale. Plus the members discount.

[@supersuperkw]

i needed tha kawhi laugh this morning thanks 😆

[@WearTesters]

No problem 😊

[@geoffhibbitt7994]

Got em!

[@calenbroful]

I got them and these are so far my favorite to play in by far I won’t ply in anything else

[@Bliu2th]

These look so killer

[@jeffarmstrong6160]

I have 2 pair of the 1's that I love playing in so I will get a pair of these at some point. I can't play in all these low top shoes that everyone where's. Gotta have a lot of ankle support

[@ambufan3242]

Im asked my self "were is the tech?" In the new shoes, then i saw the jordan 38 and this and every is clear now

[@Soldier144k-]

Looks awesome not gon lie.

[@antoniobonebeatz]

These look fire for style

[@Xen0uNiT]

I loved the first iteration of this shoe. Gonna wait until these go on discount. All that cushion sounds amazing

[@greendog6554]

They probably won't go on discount.

[@sammers213]

They’re on sale now on the Nike website

[@outof_mymind]

Beautiful freaking shoe

[@yung.g0d]

These look like some future ninja i dont play ball but ill put these on with some black cargo black shirt

[@tomandrade2790]

Dope colorway

[@Tiger24kicks]

It looks like rhe original GT Jump had more cushion thank god i picked up 3 pairs and 2 of them i have not worn yet. When ever i go indoors to ball ill be use my black pair to ball.

[@arrowzen7433]

Insane cushioning system…mmm…gotta try…too bad they did not make the forefoot a little wider with that thick middle sole.

[@Gfavvid]

I might get these. Never had this shoe model before. Interesting??!!😮 F___ Nike! Classic.👍🏽

[@torch2nine]

I want a outdoor version

[@user-rg5ys3rk6d]

Those jawns nice 👍🏽

[@RampagingChipmunk]

Wonder if Jokic will wear this version too or if he will finally get a signature shoe?

[@joncsoriano5163]

Looks really comfy.. but still a shade of running shoes

[@Joseph.Martelli7.7]

I want these so bad

[@mazda6jabba]

Do they feel the same as the 1's in terms of width?

[@LL-mj7pz]

Nikola Jokić 2s 🔥🃏

[@reydiz8292]

Which would you recommend Jump 2 vs kd16 vs jordan 38?

[@samaantree]

These look hella fire 😍🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥 and probably better than those Jordan 2 hunnits 🤣🤣🤣

[@macfanguy]

Not gonna lie kind of digging these.

[@Youtube_n_Sports]

so these would be ok for a guard? Court feel has to be minimal with all that cushion on the forefoot

[@006ahenry]

Anyone know the price tag on these. My hooping days are long gone. But id definitely wear these. Cushion sounds great

[@rayramirez8526]

That T-shirt is on point, where did you pick it up?

[@marlonburks3555]

Comfort-wise would you put these over the Jordan 38's?

[@NotKurt7]

I love the amount of technology on these but unfortunately I just cannot play in a shoe that is super high off the ground.

[@Macn360]

I had the Air Turbulence. Was that Damon Stoudamire shoe correct?

[@briangs]

I would love to know if the T-shirts fit true to size or if they fit like some of those newer baggy style T-shirts. If anyone knows I'd appreciate it.

[@jasonjones1192]

Black out colorway would be dope

[@arrowzen7433]

To your point - In DK handball is big and more and more are using hoop shoes.

[@roboroflo8679]

its a good looking shoe for sure. I wonder what they would look like in leather. I know why they say they make things they way they do now... move to zero and what not but I can not completely believe them on that. Anyways... yeah as a kid I would have wanted these for school.

[@Poeticalt911]

Has anyone gotten these shoes and the glue separates from the insole and makes a sticky stepping sound when you wear them!? I’m returning the all red ones because of this issue.

[@AbdulKhan-ot5qe]

Hey does anyone know if i insert move insoles should i go up a half size so its not too tight?

[@vianhoho19]

It looks to me that they "absorbed" the Run model to the Jump 2 because the Jump 2's cut is, as far as I can see it, the same height as the Run (but lower than the higher cut OG Jump) Definitely interesting

[@adamwesterhout]

Totally agree. It’s actually more of a successor to the Zoom BB NXT. I have both that and the jump 2s, and where the Jump 2s excel is in their stability and a slightly lower ride.

[@paychexx]

Those look good...

[@goldorak5282]

Great shoe but silly prices outside usa. Hope better colors will be out and will get it when prices divided by 2 in U.K.

[@uipi]

Those look a lot like the alphafly ... I always wonder when we'll get zoomx in a basketball shoe too unstable I think
