Whats underneath the adidas AE 1 5 basketball shoe? Check them out for yourself with this deep dive on court playtest, review, teardown and durability test. As a foot doctor I look at basketball shoes and basketball shoe 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 shoe playtest, and performance review of the adidas AE 1
- The weight, durability, fit and playability
- What are the features of the insole, midsole, and outsole
- adidas basketball shoe technology explained

EDIT/ERROR: Midsole is Jetboost - looks like two textures at the rear foot but original shoe description is incorrect - hence the different test results!
Are you sure? I definitely feel the Lightstrike at the forefoot area of the shoe, and the JetBoost at the heel. I think the shoe description is correct.
Yes, it is Full-length jetboost is used. I also checked out three weeks ago via chinese guys dismantled channel. It is solid full length Jet Boost.
Sometimes I wonder if people use their brains at all to at least question things.
By seeing results in the bounce height test, Zach could have made an assumption that there is no lightstrike.
Then, take into account how he described how "lightstrike" feels, it was so obvious it was jet boost.
Reviews like these always make me approach CZcamsrs with caution, especially with Zach who shelves out reviews on abnormal frequency.
I honestly question if he plays more than 5 hours in shoes, making his reviews invalid.
Can you compare the weight to another shoe? I have the harden vol 7 and Nike zoom run gt. Is it more the former or latter in terms of weight?
@@mrnb8932 I think Zach makes great reviews dissecting the anatomy of the shoe and how it might affect the physics behind the foot movement in conjunction with each particular shoe, but I would take his on-court performance reviews with a grain of salt (I would leave that to The Sole Drop or WearTesters for example)
You’re one of my favorite shoe reviewers. As a 36 year old that still plays basketball like he’s 21 I tend to have more foot issues as I get older. Have you ever thought about doing some foot health videos?
He has a channel for that if I'm not mistaken
Need em, love how diverse your reviews are and not just basketball shoes.
Your breakdowns and reviews are next level and these sneaker brands should be cutting you a check.
I wish
That is the best looking basketball shoe I've seen in a while. So unique.
Agreed! I just don’t like the black…the Trae 3 also debuted in a basic black melon/pink cw. Didn’t impress me lol…I’m looking for some bright as hell blue’s like Adidas did with the Dame 7 jam fest et… so hopefully there’s some dope colorways to come. The Trae 3..now has much better choices.
I've been watching the progress of your shot and layups, looking good
Doc Zach didnt disappoint me... another excellent review. AE1 is one I considering buying .
10/10 grip. The local court im at, everyone is slipping no matter the shoe. These had me sticking. Only other shoe that kept up on that court are curry 2's. That should tell you how good the grip is on here. These are the absolute best adidas Ive ever had. This includes owning Harden 1-7, Dame 2-4, Crazybounce 2017 etc
What did you think about the sizing? None of my local stores had them so I have to order online.
just saw your comment on the sole drop video hahaha really nice that it is a actually good shoe, cause I thought it was to cool and streetwear to also be good, but its not. been loving ant game, beside I probably never having one im really happy for him.
was thinking thhe ae1s or the curry 2s. had the curry 2s when they first came out but i dont know which to get between the two shoes!
@@svofoy_tre 1/2 size down if you like a snug fit, tts don’t hurt you though
First, I appreciate all the stuff you do, I always watch your videos before I buy shoes
Thanks for your consistency with videos
Can you please do a review on zamst's less substacial ankle braces like the A1s?
I also think a great video would be on the SeriousPlayerOnly Game 1, the tech on those is crazy!
Hey Zach! love the reviews, wondering if youve ever tried the Jordan Why not Zer0.1 , 2018 shoe, been loving it for Volleyball but would love to see your breakdown of it, especially the heat test since it has the shroud! i recommend the cotton shot colorway ;)
Been waiting for you to review this one just to be sure. Going to grab my pair today
You continue to be one of my favorite reviewers! What do you think about this for VolleyBall players? for reference im a taller guy clocking in at about 95-100 kg!
I respect your opinions on sneakers Dr. Zach!!! Great videos!!! 👍🏽👍🏽
The difference in the Boost may be because it's Jetboost and not the regular kind. The main difference being the individual Boost pellets being smaller, creating a bit more of a denser cushion.
Love the videos Zach I watch almost every one that come out! keep up the good work and thank you for the review your the only shoe reviewer I trust!
Dope review 💯💯 I’m certainly picking them up.
I was shocked at how amazing these felt on foot right out of the box, usually Adidas shoes need break in time...not these...and they feel so nice on foot
Did u go tts?
Awesome review like always. Have you reviewed the serious player only player1 plus? I would love to see shoe broke down the way you do it lol
Informative as ever, have been waiting for you to cut the AE1 up! Top work
The extension on your layup is looking good 👍👌
Wow this guy have been really working,really appreciate the work man ksel it up
I’m trying over here that’s for sure - I appreciate you
Your videos always make me feel great!
I have a question, I'm assuming the AE1 uses full foot Jet boost since the heel and forefoot seem to be made of the same material? Need your help to confirm
Great review! Would you suggest these or the Spawn Flotro for stronger/heavier player with occasional heel pain?
THANK YOU for doing a review on the Dame Certified 2.0 next, I can't wait.
Hey doc, you should check out the Adidas Supernova Rise. It’s got a brand new PEBA based foam for adidas and meant more for recreational runners. Would love to hear your thoughts on it.
Love the video, please get the adidas fog 1 in too
Hair comeback is crazy 🐐
Just ordered a pair of the all star colorway....I think Adidas hit it out the park with the AE 1...almost perfect cost to performance ratio which you don't always get from a introduction model. Can't wait to test these out
This actually looks decent and also performance-wise you are getting what you pay for
sick shoe but needs better colorways tbh
They should have three new colorways coming out in January.
just copped these. My first time in them I definitely felt the weight and the shoe honestly felt so clunky. But as I broke them in more and more I felt the springiness and the shoe came to life. I think that shank / springboard effect helps compensate the weight and to your point, the more explosive my moves are, the more this shoe gives back. So step backs, mid range fades, hard drives the to basket all feel great. insanely great amount of tech and a steal for $120 ❤️🔥
Zach we need leaders bulletin of the tests you run. Car CZcamsrs always show how a particular car compares with others.
This is the best show reviewee hands down im sorry no one compares.
Goat 🐐 in the building
Holy shxt the hair is growing back, been a while since I watched a shoe doc video, nice!
Hi, great review!! I just bought them and it was kind of difficult to put them on, did you have the same issue?? Thanks!!
I can’t wait to try these! Most interesting/exciting adidas sneaker to drop in a very long time
these are fire, i’m not a baller and i want them to just wear. they look great and that boost sole is gunna be niceeee 🔥 the teal blue look great. cant wait for more color ways 🤙
Of the recent adidas boost shoes such as the harden vol 6, harden vol 7, byw select, and the ae1, which would you say is the most cushioned? Thanks
Best shoe I’ve ever hooped in. Traction is amazing and it’s so comfortable
Michael Jordan DNA
him and jimmy be brothers
Adidas Pro Choice
... let's never say that again about a Adidas shoe plz
@@billynewyears3044Jordan was almost team adidas
@@DavidChinhpro life :D
Dr. Zach is looking forward to your review on the Nike gt cut 3
those combs give me goosebumps
i might be the only one but i always laugh when you do the smoke check. maybe it's the mad scientist thing or whatever but just makes me laugh and some scenes when they are filmed right after and i can see the leftover smoke. 😂 but thank you for these detailed videos. you make them look effortless but alot of work goes into them.
Good video I went half size for snug fit for hooping 😊
I was waiting for you to drop the review as these looked great and now after seeing this I'm going to buy them as soon as they are available in my country
Same here bro.... waiting for the India release..!!
These look amazing with a Nike Elite black sock. Great looking shoe.
So, have you done any air drag tests ? Something I’ve been considering when buying shoes.
Best Channel ever😊
keep up the good work man!
great fog test to display breathability, so my fav sneaker reviewer
Doc my Court FF2s were kept in the closet for a year (surgery), and the rubber on the toe is kinda cracking like it has dried off. Is this indicative of cushioning being gone too?
Thanks Zach for the review. Love the look of the AE1. Now the main question would be, is this the best adidas basketball performance shoe out right now or is it my favourite, the Harden Vol 7?
I like the hardens more personally
Was about to ask this question. Thanks Doc
Zach.... Need help! Can you recommend a good STABILITY court shoe with a wider toe box and a heel drop between 4-6mm? I wear Topo Athletic Ultrafly's for running (can wear these on the court as well when needed)...so looking for something similar for the court. Having a lot of difficulty with this search. Really need the stability for overpronation and really enjoy the width in the toe and that sweet spot heel drop. Thank you for the help!!
that head of lettuce really made me realize i haven’t seen your videos in a while 😅 love the look, great review!
Haha welcome back to the sneakerverse
Adidas all 3 are top 10 shoes--Harden Vol 7, Don Issue 5 and AE1.
What’s better for a 5’7 13y guard these or LeBron nxxt Gen
Would this be good shoes for plantar fasciitis? Does it collect a lot of dust when playing indoor? I had Trae Young 1 as first Adidas shoes and i liked the fit of it but the traction was terrible. Wondering if this would be somewhat similar to Trae Young 1.
How do you think the comparison between the length of dame certified and AE 1 sir? Are they same length wise?
These are some beautiful shoes
“so uh, cool cool“
Doc Zach looking like he bout to hurt some feelings 😂
If I still played I’d buy these just because they look different. Seems adidas would’ve made the honeycomb more forward directional to catch more air while running to keep your foot cooler.
Hi. I'm not a baller anymore. Some might say I never was. (smile) I don't have a narrow foot. I would say it's normal size. So for just wearing to sport the look of the shoe should I go 1/2 size down or true to size?
I’m pretty athletic on the guard , for a guy like me that’s running , moving , dunking a lot on the court In your opinion are these then Giannas 3 shoe ?
Has anyone else noticed that the insoles suck and move around under your foot whilst playing. If so, can anyone help with a solution aswell as how to clean the outside toe when it gets dirty
can you try a Xtep Basketball Shoe? thanks
Are those reebok court Victory pumps behind you?
Would you recommend this or the 808 3 for a pf?
Can you do a comparison with adidas AE 1 vs. All City 12?
I love my AE1s but the containment has become an issue. 2 incidents where I nearly rolled my ankle badly, then recently almost snapped my knee in half. Might have to retire them 😭
I heard it is a different blend of boost in the AE 1, I heard it’s whole midsole was boost and jet boost and that Adidas messed up in the description on their website
🤷♂️ could be that the forefoot is more compacted so looks like a different foam - the foams certainly act different
Adidas nmd s1 cut bro amazing
!Please start including playability from of Volleyball perspective. Thanks!
Hey Zach,
I could only get them in a 11.5, when I normaly have a 12 in Adidas. They feel very tight in the ToeBox Area. However If I remove the insole, they feel really snug. Is it okay to play in These with the insole removed?
Thanks in Advance 🙏🏽 keep up the good work
Of course😂
If I wear 7.5 in all adidas including harden 7 . What size should I go with these ?
need some new ball shoes and im getting the blue pair as soon as thy come out
Just waiting for a darker color to come out in the fall. Wish they had a way to customize it and make your own like nike id
Would you consider this is better than NB two way v4
They should make a verison of this for tennis. Would be a hit for sure.
8.5 is a perfect fit for me but i ordered 9 will it work?
Good to put inserts in them?
How would you compare this to the Dame 8?
Nike air impact 4 review plz, it's supposed to be a good outdoor shoe
I love how much you can see the Yeezy influence on these
Early! This looks nice and hoping the AE line gets better with future releases. Wondering and hoping if a shoe will ever get a perfect score in the URS 🤔
Hi Zach, love your videos,
I'm trying to decide between the Lebron 21 for 150$ and curry 11 for 130$
Which one do you think I should get?
LeBron 21
Squeaky af
Very soft, not responsive soft, but pillowy soft and nice compression
Curry 11 lacks for me personally, but traction is reallly goooodd
Can you use move insoles in these?
hope you review the curry 4 retro
Does someone know were we can buy the curry 10 city edition PE ?
Can u test the Adidas bouce legends please?
Can u test the Adidas bouce legends? Please
can you breakdown way of wade 10 low pls
Great vid dont listen to the haters♥️
Confused because a few sources say it has boost and lightstrike, but then the tech specs sheet says they have full length jet boost.
Nothing full length in these- theres a clear break between foams at the midfoot
@@FootDoctorZach gotcha, it's difficult to see the difference on the video. But I trust you for that info. I wondered if jet boost was some boost lightstrike combo, but I guess not.
@@Rocco_Co they said that it is a more responsive type of Boost if I am not mistaken
Do you think the outsole is durable enough to rock them casually? 👀
I love your reviews. I would love to see you do more running shoes.
In 2024 you’ll prob get 1 a week
When is the release date in Asia?
Reminds me of the Cheech and Chong movie, "Up In Smoke"😂
i love this
Make the review of the Harden vol 8
One think that you should also coment its the price...and that made this sneaker a killer
