In this video we go over the Air Jordan 38:
This model saw an improvement in both comfort and cushion from my experience - no stiff feeling on feet, no more pinching anywhere from the materials. Traction works well on both clean and dusty courts, but frequent wipes are needed to prevent dust from accumulating. You can either go true to size or half size down with the Jordan 38, sizing up is NOT recommended given some dead space in the leather toe box. Overall, I found the quality, design, and performance to be on-point with its hefty price tag. If you find it to be expensive, they’ll likely go on sale later on.

Thoughts on the Jordan 38??
🟢 Cushion, Materials, Comfort
🔴 Toe Box Fit, Dust Pick Up, Lateral Containment
Thank you for watching!!
good stuff man.
Thanks for sharing, I appreciate how you break things down so that viewers can understand. You really give a good and accurate opinion. The Move all-day and Gameday Insoles have truly been a game changer for me. I learned from your videos that some shoes need to be broken in more than others. Now I am enjoying all the shoes I have vs just buying more and more and running out of places to store them. AKA HIDE THEM lol. plus, the wife is happy. I still spend the money I just put it on stocks lol. Thank you, brother Tommy.
I think that x thing under the foot hit my foot arch
If you can afford to buy this, I would have to say go get wow 10
Let’s go been waiting for someone I know to make a honest review on these ty all you do 💙💪🙏
Appreciate you as always!!
I don’t have much issue with my 37s , they’re more of like a high performance racing car 🏎️ without the plushness. while the 38s maybe more like an expensive Benz
37s are bricks
I have the 37s and the traction is so bad 😭
I'm a regular to this channel but was here for just the fitting, thanks for proactively answering
I tried these on, and just from try-on they feel amazing. Responsive forefoot & cushion at the heel (my own preference), awesome materials, wide foot friendly…..this colorway is the best, but I hope they make more.
Are they true to size or did you have to go up a size
@@thahomie773 retro J’s I’m typically 8 because they run big, current J’s/Nikes 8.5/9, depends, and I’m a bit of a wide footer, for context. 8.5 was perfect for me. And the leather at the toe feels great, so if they fit a bit snug I think they would warm up & conform after a while.
The brother in the background shooting hoops in Chucks, thats the real retro sneakers right there.😄
My issue with my AJ 37 is containment. Maybe because I sized up from 9.5 to 10 since i felt a little pinching with former. Other that, it's pretty great. I love my takeoff and landing. I love the bred colorway also.
True the 37 deserves credit as a bouncy shoe.
fiba colorway with patent leather toe is 🔥
Oh man. I’m liking the 38’s. Imma wait for the Aqua colorway.
Aqua is 🔥🔥 paying great homage
Its great that they used somewhat premium materials for a premium shoe this time, compared to last gen’s cheap plasticy one
Can't wait for the low version. Hope they can fix the inner arch pain
going to get these... waiting for the Aqua colorway!
Jordan zoom zero gravity were goats for me
I regret buying the jordan 37 low eybl. Should’ve waited for these. But the eybl jordan 37 low looks so sexy
Oh you should definitely do another mid cut basketball shoe tier lost some time!
U are the best NBA shoe presenter on YT....and Doctor Z Great video again mate
Got the xdr outsole
are the insoles not glued and can easily be removed?
I'm looking forward for the low version...🤔
great review! imagine mj playing on todays shoes 😳
Great review
Thank you!
I think the LeBron 20 premium is the most expensive Nike hoop
shoe right now at $330 CAD.
😬
Oh true you’re right 😂😂
I liked your review on 38 Jordan more than others. Is the toe of the sneaker made of genuine leather or is it a substitute?
Thank you! Synthetic but very soft and slightly tumbled leather - no stiffness on feet.
Win for Tommy Liu🎉🎉
Any outsole tear issue? Seems to be a common reported problem on reviews and reddit.
I have the 36 lows, they are absolutely amazing imo, skipped the 37 cause you know it's not nice. Anyone had both the 36 and 38? Which one is better overall?
Unfortunately for me- that plastic outrigger destroyed my feet. So I couldn’t even use them
pinky toe rubbing problem ???
@@ariefbw no- the actual plastic section to hold the mid foot in on the outer side is really hard on the bottom of my foot
@@ttvWideShoesdamn that sucks, luckily these fit me beautifully but I did have to return my LeBron 20's cause they absolutely destroyed my feet. Tried breaking them in over a few days but it just hurt like a mf
@@bobslayer1285 well- to each their own. I’m glad they fit you because they felt good/ I would have liked them if they didn’t hurt my feet. The cushioning seems perfect for me
U always THE Man Tommy,,,U should start ripping NBA cards here
on your opinion, which is better J38 or Lebron21?
LeBron 21
Hey could you review the adidas adizero select please
Next shoe review
Puma Clyde all pro team pls
Pls do a 361's AG4.
Great Vid
Thank you!!
They look great, the 37's were trash in my opinion. I want these but $260 canadian is a bit steep.
Is there a "main line" air Jordan (as in 2 through 38) besides the AJ1 which is both durable for outdoors AND wide in the toebox? They all seem so narrow and soft! :(
I like the design but not the colorway,I love loud colorway 👍😘🇵🇭
That kind of box should be for budget shoes. For that, I'll wait for a discount.
Your literally wait for a discount because of the BOX?! 😂. It's a box... you actually keep them shits? You spend the money on the SHOE, not the box that they come in. Sooo when you go to try shoes on the dude comes out and if you see a box you don't like you just tell him to put them back? Lol. Your hooping in these shoes... that's what matters.
@@RemmyRiffs I did wait and recently got it half the price. I always bought 50% since the 34's anyway.
awesome cw! hey will you be checking out the sabrina 1s anytime soon? heard they're like kobe alternatives.
Yes 🙏🙏
What if I told you the GT Hustle is 200 in Europe as well?
Solid rubber outsole DEFO better
What about durability? Seems to be the consensus problem with a 200 dollar plus shoe that is meant for usage
So far so good on my pair. Will update if any problem occurs!
Was gonna say there’s a lot of fraying of the outsole on Reddit after only a couple wears.
@@TommyLiu4mabuhay. I just want to ask if you had outsole separation?
Are you gonna review the game day insole?
If you’re paying 200+ for the 38s, they should’ve came in a luxurious box at least, not some plain recycled box, but then again it’s the shoes you’re playin in, not the box.
Exactly. Absolutely hate this Move to Zero packaging but I guess we don’t wear the boxes…
Just got it for $110
Durability wise these 38 are not so good. I think the mid foot foam they have used is too soft and with the additiona harderl material they have add on top really didn't help either. Iack of mid foot shank plate is also a missed. Overall 6/10 it really should be higher due to its nice classic look.
Hi Tommy, I just want to ask your opinion on how this compares to wow10. :)
Hi 😃 WOW 10 is better to me.
Thanks man, would you say GT Hustle 2 or AJ 38?
GT Hustle 2
Hey man do u know if jordan max aura 4 or something is good for basketball or nah
Hey, not sure man never tried those.
How about the durability of the sole and the side?
Little bit of separation on the side for my pair, outsole is perfectly fine.
The 37s were so bad that I gave both of my pairs away. Horrible shoe, but had plush forefoot cushioning.
Hey tommy I’m a size 8 in the 37s with a tiny bit of space should I go half a size down In these or stick to 8?pls reply
8
@@TommyLiu4 ur the best foo!
would you rather pick zion 2 or jordan 38?
Jordan 38
thank you@@TommyLiu4
@@malymichalek_ 🤛
Can you use these outdoors?
Not sure sorry
0:26 Chuck Taylor over there bout to get L00se 😂😂😂😂
Is it good for wide foot?
Average width, should be fine unless you have very wide feet.
Hey did your pair outsole rip yet ?bc people are having that problem
Hey, I’ve heard that too but so far just a tiny bit of separation on my pair. However keep in mind that I certainly won’t be one to use them every sesh so maybe they are vulnerable under heavy usage.
@@TommyLiu4 damn $200 for literally a full day of games that’s crazy . Thanks
@@rayace8438 Cheers!
Who the hell is going to look at the shoe and be like, wow look at the 8 1/2 lines that show his 8.5 rebounds per game! lol 🤦♂
Nobody of course, just pointing out some details 😃
Don’t get this shoe. I bought these recently and after one session of indoor pick up 5v5, the sole was coming apart. There was chipping on the edges, and the right side of the other shoe, the edges of the sole were coming apart! It was a good 4 inches of peeling back. The QC on these were atrocious. Jordan needs to learn from this. There was just too many materials stacked on top of each other. And that is why it wasn’t a solid feel, and it didn’t have a good foundation. I’m 6’2 240lbs. Good thing I bought from Nike app, and they accepted my return without question and issued a full refund.
Don’t buy!!
The box alone makes me not wanna cop. Lol
Yeahh
In 6 months it will be $99
hows durability on yours? i saw posts in reddit its bad
So far so good. Will update later on especially if anything happens!
How so? I heard some of the materials are separating from the midsole already.
👍❤️🇬🇪🇵🇭
:D
I'm so disappointed for J37
I was too lol
The MJ 37 was rubbish
air jordan never fails in making hideous shoes since jordan 1
Nike greenwashing, joining the "renewable" marketing bandwagon to bait consumers.
LOL yeah. Luckily as far as I know, the consumers do not buy into that bs, we just unfortunately had to accept what some of their products come with. Like the Jordan 38 coming in a Move to Zero box was just nasty to me…
@@TommyLiu4 No! Not the box!! We need the box.
Is it just me or these Jordans are getting uglier and uglier? I get it, Jordan Brand (JB) is trying look different and are implementing technology for ‘performance’ - I think they are over doing things which drives the price up. JB is trying to market their shoes to look different like Hardens and WOWs - but these newer Jordans look ugly.
a bag of garbage would have even been better then the 37.
True, bags can at least be sealed lol
pg6 or Ja1?
