Kd13 is one of my alltime favourite hoop shoes the forefoot doublestack with strobal unit was amazing, still a midcut with tons of support great traction one of the best ive ever played in
I hear ya, i agree, i liked your comment first and foremost. Having said that, They are real small jumps and he’s a smaller probably lighter guy i think. I don’t know how tall but he seems like a guard. Probably not too bad for him or he wouldn’t do them all the time. Plus, Sammy Takes one for the team cus he lets us know how it is IF we happen to land on our heels. Sorry for the long answer I’m high as fuggg
The reason KDs have a forgiving heel lockdown is to protect his Achilles since he tore it (it's why the 15s have the heel bump). The 16s have a similar function without the bump to prevent the heel slippage, but if you crank the very last lace you're able to achieve amazing heel lockdown. It's really nice because you don't have to tie the rest of the shoe that tight but can still get amazing fit and lockdown. As someone who suffers from Achilles tendinitis I tend to lean toward KD shoes because they keep this injury in mind, all while still providing a enough lockdown that is adjustable based on your injury level. If you need your heel tightness a little more forgiving you're able to do that while still getting the level of heel lockdown you need, and vice versa if you don't suffer from the injury.
@@menagex3543 must not be your correct sizing. The Kds do feel weird at first. I have a wide foot and was worried about the heel slippage and Kds historically running narrow. After the initial break in period and tying them correctly I never had any problems
I had to wipe my butt a lot since it was dusty but overall it was cleaned pretty well and I could keep playing even though I was constapated but still some doo doo remained
Is there a shoe better than the way of wade 10 yet or should I just buy another pair, looking for great traction, bounce, cushion, performance. I use them for volleyball and basketball
I had terrible heel slip in the Kd 16. Worse than the heel slip I had in the Kd 15. I had to add one more lace hole on the 16 just to make them wearable.
I guess the shoes that I got at dicksporting goods ran big . I got. Half size down..... and it feelsl very good... with the 11.5 I felt that heel lockdown problem.. but going half size down to size 11.. it feel very well..
Nice bounce? Maybe Kyrie infinity, they’re super cheap and a nice and comfy shoe. If you want better court feel i would go 808 3 ultra The Wow 10 is an investment but i personally think it’s the best shoe out there
Sammy can you performance review li ning liren 4 (sharp edge) even I have it and it the best traction even cushion too but is a high top basketball shoe
I have watched your videos, but I still don't really know what shoe to get ( I am looking for a budget one, 120EURO at most). The DVD1 and the way of wade shoes are both recommended by you, but since I need to ship them over and probably cannot return them (I live in Germany) I dont really know if I should take this risk. Otherwise I really like the looks of the DVD1 and the price is also good (would bei 100 EURO with shipping included). So I think the only other options are the Nike Precision 6, Tatum 1 and Luka 1, right? Which one of these is the best one?
@@deniz_skywalkerthats actually what I had (my first ever shoes) but I broke them unfortunately and now I cant find them no more, its sold out everywhere or not selling at all
@CliqueOverAnything lol I know they're not too bad rn but it's EVERY video. Whenever he demonstrates wiping the dust off the outsole that's all I see is his nails lookin too long for ball. 🤣

It's just a demo bro. Nobody actually lands on their heels when jumping. There are players though who are heel-strikers when running or cutting.
I said it because he mentions on many of his videos that he runs down the court like that
@@diegobobadilla8616everyone lands on their heels when they run
YES. He always talks about heel to toe strikes but you should NEVER do that. Thats why a lot of athletes cant stay on the court now

The 15s were the most comfortable of all my shoes...Will probably get some 16s once they have more colorways
15s are goated
I have aunt pearl 15, but ever since the dropped these it’s been fired cause it’s my schools colors so they finna look clean (we’re red and gold)
Heel slip ruined the 15s for me

I know what you are saying, and there is slippage, but they are so damn comfortable and bouncy@@menagex3543
When I first saw this silhouette....I IMMEDIATELY SLID OUT!! 🤯🤸🏽♂️🤯
Wdym?
Dont sleep on these, elite hoop shoe
I absolutely love the look. I have always wanted a pair of KDs because he is my favorite NBA player and you always say good things about his shoes.
thanks
@@user-tw8kk8jr8b 🤓Thanks.
Hope these fit like the kd14
When is there going to be a new color way releasing
I had to wipe my butt a lot since it was dusty but overall it was cleaned pretty well and I could keep playing even though I was constapated but still some doo doo remained
What sups Sammy keep up the work work with the shoes you review and thanks for taking the time to review them
Is there a shoe better than the way of wade 10 yet or should I just buy another pair, looking for great traction, bounce, cushion, performance. I use them for volleyball and basketball
Get another pair
Maybe the 808 3 ultra, but i LOVE the lows for the wow 10 too. I have both highs and lows. Highs are bouncier but the lows feel great too
I just got the puma all pro nitros. They’re great. Better than pg6 for sure which I had.
Thanks Sammy. Looking forward to your Jordan 38 review.
KD14’s are the best so far
The strap coming undone is annoying, though.
I have a question if I I’m a size 10 should I go size 11 and still give me good lock down
Kd 16 vs LeBron nxxt gen?
I had terrible heel slip in the Kd 16. Worse than the heel slip I had in the Kd 15.
I had to add one more lace hole on the 16 just to make them wearable.
The KD 16 looks like a PG 6
Sounds like KD13/14s were peak and been going down since
my favorite think about air stroble is, it's not very mushy
I love them. Rn my shoe rotation is WOW 10, Kd16, and lebron 21
I guess the shoes that I got at dicksporting goods ran big . I got. Half size down..... and it feelsl very good... with the 11.5 I felt that heel lockdown problem.. but going half size down to size 11.. it feel very well..
I have a question I’m a light weight pg who is looking for a good shoe with a nice bounce. Any recommendations?
The W.O.W. 808 3 Ultra is a good lightweight option with great bounce it feels really similar to a Kobe.
Nice bounce? Maybe Kyrie infinity, they’re super cheap and a nice and comfy shoe. If you want better court feel i would go 808 3 ultra
The Wow 10 is an investment but i personally think it’s the best shoe out there
LeBron 20👍🏼 bouncy Kobe basically
Gt jump 2 performance review?
Goat is still KD14
Sammy can you performance review li ning liren 4 (sharp edge) even I have it and it the best traction even cushion too but is a high top basketball shoe
How is the toe box for wide feet
Can you try Li-ning Yu-Shuai series?
It looks like an old and1s in the mid 2000s. Like the ones that jwill wore.

Love the channel and the reviews. But please clip those 💅 gonna slice and dice someone on the court with those
His nails aren't even that bad 😂

I’ve been trying to get hoop shoes for a while and i’m stuck between kd 16 and Ja 1 what should i get?
comfort - kd 16, traction - ja 1 (My own opinion)
Also the Ja 1 is more durable I think and cheaper than average price of kd 16s
hi Sammy
Where’s the 808 3 ultra review!!
Please do kd16 vs ja1🙏🙏🙏
Yoo i play in a dusty court at the rec center. Whats the best shoe for traction??
I reccomend the pg6 dude, been playing with it on public courts and it bites very very good and stays consistent for a very long time
Are they ripping???
I'm feeling that we see the same shoe the last couple of years.
Low top Penny 2’s
Sof or ac 11
Son of flash, Better outdoor and indoor
I stayed with the kd 6
give away when??
Jesus Christ loves you all❤ Isiah 33:22 For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king; he will save us.
