These are some of the most tech packed basketball sneakers of 2021 with an Air Max unit plus Zoom Air with medial and lateral stabilization and a all new outsole design- but judge for yourself if they're worthy enough to be a game day sneaker
As a foot doctor I look at basketball shoes and basketball sneaker technology a bit differently as I focus more on what foot types benefit from these shoes as well as the tennis shoe's functional attributes on the tennis and basketball court
Some of the main areas we cover in this basketball shoe playtest, teardown and performance review are:
- The weight, durability, fit and playability
- What are the features of the insole, midsole, and outsole
- Nike basketball shoe technology explained

Please do this to Puma Clyde All Pro 🙏
Do Anta KT basketball shoes. Keep it up. 👍
I will use them for work in a warehouse, smooth cement floor no rough but a lot of dirt and grease
Can you do a Kobe 4,5 or 6 ?
Jeremy Lin 1,2 and Jordan 11😅 low IE
the best LBJ 19 review i have seen, the most detailed because you really dissected it. wc gives us an actual preview of the just shoe and not just describing it unlike other reviewers. thank you for including basketball and lbj review in your channel. keep it up.
Thank you I’m glad you got some good info out of it 👍👍
I normally don’t click on suggested videos but ur transition is so clean I been binge watching last three days. Instant sub. Keep up the good work doc
Thanks! That’s the goal
I love this style of review and I feel like you seriously helped me find my next basketball shoe that would work for me
So glad you got some good info out of it 👍👍
The beginning hurts my heart every time💔💔 love this video, literally jumped on Ebay and bought the ones that have been sitting in my cart for FOREVER lol. Thanks!! 🙏🏾
Glad you like them!
I know but it still hurts to see them being cut in half.
Love your reviews bro because they are very in depth especially coming from someone who have expertise in the feet. It gives us a better understanding of what kind of shoes would be good for our own type of feet.
Thanks! Glad you liked it
Thanks Doc for all the wonderful non-stop reviews, I really appreciate them
Glad you like them👍👍
I always try out LeBrons signature shoe every release. I feel it's too heavy for my liking. But I'm always curious about the tech.
I do hope you give retro Jordans (1's through 14's) a review.🙏
Your format is super effective for testing footwear. Keep it up Doc 👌
Thanks! Yeah I want to do a series on the whole line
Thanks Zach! Together with weartesters your channel is now my go-to channel for in depth reviews, hope you review the KT7 from Anta
Thanks! Yep I’ll get to them- playing catch up with the 2021’s
Wow Doc, another Master review.
Very technical, professional and coming from an Specialist is priceless.
I would recommend to perform reviews on AJ's retro line....(if not already)
Many thanks, Godspeed
Great review, but would you recommend these as a good shoe for the gym? Ive been interested in how the air pods would affect different lifts.
I have these shoes and I love them I wouldn't change a thing about them it took me about 3 hours to break in and after that, I had no problem with them at all I still use them and they are amazing.
This is good stuff, don’t know how I got to the channel but I’ll be here permanently, love the info given here! Have you done one with the Brooks Aurora BL? That would be interesting. I love that shoe but was curious as to how it’s built.
Thanks! No not at the moment but I love brooks construction personally
Instant subscribe! You go all out in you videos! Keep up the great work. 👍🏾
Welcome to the sneakerverse
What a golden nugget of a channel you have going on here, I can see this Channel growing into a snkr staple Salutes
Thanks! Glad you like it, very kind words
Thanks for the Advice, Zach! I have been debating if I should get these shoes for a hot minute, and this review showed me valid pros and cons to consider. And I will be Picking them up, for my rotation. 🔥keep it up! I just don’t know which color to rock on the court…
Hope you find your pair!
what a shoes i like the way how you review for me its complete review inside and out, advantage and dis advantage. it so happen that my cousin from US had already bought the same model in the review and i cant wait to see the actual so excited and proud to be soon owner of LJ19 shoes. thanks sir
Hi Zach 👋 I love your videos,
Is there any way you could do the Kyrie Low 4? Thanks
Anyone know if there’s a way to inflate the air bubble on these? Mine on my right shoe is slightly deflated and I’m trying to fix it
Hello foot doctor Zach, my name is elden pierce and I recently just started playing basketball again and I'm coming off a Injury and I was wondering what kind of shoes I should get, I've looked at some of the videos on your channel about the LeBron 19s and the Jordan why no zero 0.5 and the Injury im coming off is ankle injury, so what would be a good supporting light shoe for me because I don't wanna a big shoe like LeBrons but I like the ankle support but the Jordan's are light but don't have thr best supporting. So what should I do.
So informative ,I'm gonna make sure i see all your reviews before making another purchase
Glad you got something out of it!
very thorough review... 👍👍👍
Those connected air chambers reminds me of reebok dmx run, a 90's shoes
Yep I’ve had a few people say that
What do you think is the top outdoor hoop shoe for a guy that runs alot on concrete? I'm thinking about these, the newest air jordan, and the gt jump...
Eventho I am sure you can't hoop - your Review is FIRE - As one small channel doing reviews in german i got 2 admit your style of reviews, the cutting of the shoe and the really detailed description of every part of the shoe, made it a joy to watch. Keep the work up !
Thanks! And no I’m not very good at all - I was a collegiate tennis player so I have just some general athletic ability but I treat so many hoopers in my office I have a pretty good command of what a shoe needs and doesn’t
Saw 2 of ur videos and subscribed. Really cool and well produced videos.
Thanks! Glad you liked it
This is a great review I was really looking at buying these now I understand the shoe better. Let’s go Zach 🔥🔥🔥
Awesome! Glad you liked it
hey, dr. zach! i just got my lebron 19 today.. i bought it on the official nike website in my country for only almost $90 US dollars. & i gotta say, i love the cushion. even the 1st time i wore it, i can already feel the air zoom unit in the forefoot & the air max in the heel. imagine when it's broken in.. the cushion will become softer which i like. 😊
I was very curious about the "brush" tech that these Lebrons have (and other nikes that I've noticed). It seems like there's a brush material that is within the platform, what's it called?
Thanks for the review, Zach! I've been dying to hear how this performs for a few weeks now. I'm not a big dude but I have a pretty thick lower body and have really enjoyed playing in LeBron's shoes, was curious if this one had some fatal flaws or dealbreakers.
These are gonna come down to the individual - usually I can tell if a shoe is gonna be a dud or a classic but these I think are going to split right down the middle
I have this exact model. Looks amazing but its hard to do anything but jump for rebounds. What alternative would you recommend has great cushion but better flexibility? For context, I own and use the Lebron 18, Lebron 19, and KD14. I love the 18 and KD 14. 18 for cushion and the KD14 for the flexibility while having a pretty strong cushion.
Thanks dude! Such a great video, personally as a life long hooper and at the same time not so much of a lebron shoe fan, this shoe is the best basketball shoe I ever had
Just ordered them I don’t know if they will be good with my wide foot fitting in to the top and if you have a wide foot did you have issues
How durable is the shoes for outdoor. I have them and wanna wear them outdoor but expensive so don’t wanna wear the outsole out
I have this fitting issue with the top of my feet my left foot is high in this area do they break or I may have to change the way I will lace them in my left foot?🙃😉
Keep up the good work doc! Appreciate your very detailed Basketball shoe review.
Glad you like it 👍👍
Great review, as always. Totally agree about weight distribution making a shoe feel lighter, well articulated here and overlooked elsewhere. The weight in ounces isn't very instructive, if it's a sock on top of a brick it'll feel heavier and more labored than something with more weight that is better distributed. Ditto for height, sheer appearance dictates very little. A friend I play with asked me if these were heavy and restricted movement at the ankle and it took me a while to convey this to him (I considered just handing him the shoe lol).
For me traction has been great. I play on a pretty lousy group of hardwood courts but took them to a smooth concrete court once and had no issues. I did get the EP pair from Asia, so that may help the cause since those have a harder and slightly thicker (I think 8mm) sole.
These are, like almost every LBJ model a straight line shoe equipped to pivot and change direction in tight spaces. Anyone expecting a Kyrie or Curry type feel just doesn't have realistic expectations. For me these are a huge improvement over the 18s, which suffered from really uneven weight distribution and a lack of heel-toe transition fluidity/speed. These were great to wear around but not so great in action. I do miss the amazing knit uppers from the 17 and I guess the 15 also, but for a no frills textile these get the job done nicely, like the foam upper on the 14 did
That’s interesting to hear about the 18 vs 19
Hi. Can you do a vid on best bball shoes for outdoor court for flat feet? Thanks
Just came across your channel, and I love love love it!
Glad you enjoy it!
Hello Doc. Many thanks for this vídeo (and the previous ones).
Could You do one (if not already) about Lebron's 18?
Many thanks.
Godspeed
👍👍
I play center just got them and agree on all the upsides but disagree with the downsides exept for the grip at some different times
Hi doc, I want to ask you for a better pick for me who wants to play in outdoors always which also has good colorways and looks too
Do you have a review of the Lebron 17s? Thanks!
Can I buy these shoes for my son? He wants them but isn't on a basketball team
Hello, I'm Korean and I'm a basketball player. I've seen a lot of basketball shoes CZcamsrs so far. But you're by far the best of them all I've ever seen. YOU ARE really another level. Why does such good contents only get this number of views? I will passionately promote your contents in Korea. it's really amazing. Thank you so much for providing such good contents!!
Thanks! Glad you liked it - I’m still relatively new to the basketball space so it will take some time to get more traction - thanks for the vote of confidence 👍👍
@@FootDoctorZach Honestly, you deserve to be confidence. I have been watching most of basketball shoes reviewing videos in detail for 3 years. So, I can tell it. You are the best..!!
Thank you 👏👏
Oh man this guy + Nightwing's info gonna have me set when selecting a good hoop shoe 💥💥💥💥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I love weartesters as well - hate it when I watch a review of a shoe I did and we say the exact same thing though haha
Will you do the cosmic unity? Same system as kd13 but lower to the ground.
Thanks for the Help, i got the shoe, only downside is if your lighter the air max doesnt cushion as well as it should, its a bit harder to get it to cushion
I’m a older bigger guy that plays 3 days a week and have been suffering from pretty severe tendonitis on my inner ankle. I just got these hoping it will help.
Great review as always, covered every single detail! So my question is: What’s the name of those adidas socks you’re wearing?
traxion 3
Solid vid man. Thank you for taking your time
Glad you got something out of it!
Great review of the shoe. I am a Bron sneaker collector and just recently picked up 2 Bron 19s, and they are extremely comfortable. The one thing about the shoe I don't like is there is some torsional twist between the forefoot and heel at times. I sat that when comparing to his previous models.
Interesting - I wonder if it’s all the space dedicated to the air system
hi there! i'm planning to buy one for casual wear. can you feel the cushion in the forefoot when you walk? i loved the lebron 8 because i can feel the cushion in the forefoot.
Hey Doc, did you ever do a review on the Lebron 18?
As someone who plays both tennis and basketball loving the content with the hoop shoes keep it up!!
Awesome! Glad you like them
Tell me, if my foot length is 30 cm wide foot what size should I take?
Does it come in four wheel drive also
Thanks for the review. Was very curious to hear your opinion with all the midsole tech in these. With that said, also very curious to hear your opinion on another shoe with all the midsole tech from 20 years ago… Nike Shox BB4. Any chance we get a review on those some day?
👍👍
Mu daughter used these for a full year and they are still holding up. We are going to try the Stewie this year but she still likes playing in these. The ankle flaps took a while to break in.
Keep up the great work Zach
Thank you , I’m trying
Thanks for the review
This channel deserves more subs.
Thank you, haha i remember when someone said that wen i had 50 subs
imma have to subscribe to you! Planning to get Lebron 19 instead of Lebron XX as I don't like low cut shoes
Thank you for the detailed review! Would you say it has a good cushion for preventing stressing the ball of the foot (metatarsal head) from very hard cuts, full approach vertical jumps & landings from high jumps ?
Appreciate it!
Yep it’s in the fit section
Thanks for the review!! My first time playing in a few months was last night and I tried playing in my old lebron 8's. Actually found with all that cushion in there my Patellar tendon wasn't quite ready for all that push off force so def felt it in the knees the next morning. Was considering these but think I'll go for KD 14 based on your video on that!
Hope they work well for you 👍👍
Just found this channel. Love your stuff!
Would you be willing to do this to running shoes? I'd be curious to check out your thoughts on various shoes with different foams and styles like the Nike Vaporfly Next%, Saucony Endorphin Speed/Pro, New Balance Rebel V2, New Balance RC Elite 2, Hoka Bondi X. Cheers! Awesome stuff 👏
Thanks! It wouldn’t be on this channel at the moment- if I do I’d make a separate running channel- the niches are just too different - I’m probably pushing it with all the court sports like I’m doing now
Your review skills are out of this world!
Thank you, glad you’re getting something from the videos
I love this channel. We need a retro kick tear down. Kicks from the 90’s and early 00’s are back hype now. Nike Air Shakes, Nike Uptempo, even Foamposites!! 🔥🔥 keep up the good work.
Yeah that’d be fun
Hi Zach, I have a question. I’m between buying this ones, the Air Jordan 36 or the new Nike air Zoom GT jump. I play as a 3-4, dunker and fast player. :) love your videos
Id much rather have the jump
Zach you're legendary your review is awesome.
Thank you!
I’m glad I’m not gonna have a problem twisting my ankle lol
Hey Zach, great video. I’m wondering, if you can somehow get a pair of the LeBron ambassador 13 (you can only get it from GOAT as far as I know), could you review that? I’m really interested to see how that performs. It’s a huge departure from any of the LeBron line and LeBron himself prefers to wear that over the 19’s (and last year’s 18’s) so I’m curious what you think of it. Im glad I stumbled upon your channel! I really like the amount of different things you test out on each shoe. Performance reviews on CZcams are not a new thing but you really are pushing it! Can’t wait for you to grow huge in the near future!
Thanks! Yeah I can take a look - hopefully I can start getting these reviews out with a bit more frequency 👍
Very educational, thank you!
Glad you got something out of it!
I am happy that I found this channel because on the other channels they don't say about flat foot.
So can you make top of basketball shoes for flat foot, please?
Although please test Puma RS dreamer
👍👍 yep it’ll be coming
Love your videos Doctor keep up the good work 👏 , I have a question for you , I want to buy these shoes , I currently have issues with my left knee , I know they are good for tendinitis and shock absorption but I also know the nike Gt jump have a great shock protection and the technology on the shoe is awesome , which one in your opinion is better , I am a 30 year old 6 ft small forward .
thank you Doc !
Just my personal preference but the jumps for me
Keep up the great work man!! But I gotta ask I have the same shoes but the munchies mine ruin all my socks is this for you to?
Not personally but I’ve heard others say this multiple times
im 5ft8 i do lot fastbreaks,driving and cutting thru when playing basketball will this help me stride faster and jump abit higher?
Doubtful on the striding faster - I talk about this in the video
Cant wait for the review of the nike zoom gt jump when they come out.
Great video again 🤩, please could you do PG 5s next?
👍👍
I've had these for about 6 months and the right shoe is really digging into my achiles to the point where I had to take them off because it fell someone was stabbing me with a knife. 190 EUR down the drain. I might try they KDs next.
Could be good for floorball? Any ideas?
I want these soooo bad, thanks for the video Zach‼️
👍👍
Nice!
Love that video
Awesome! Glad you liked it
Should you go a size down or up??
I would love ro share my thoughts but I could not find this
Si los uso en exterior serán durables ?
nice review Zach, thanks.
Glad you liked it!
Would love to see you do these videos for some of the more popular casual/running shoes that most people wear. For example ultraboost, air maxes(you could even do a whole series on the different models and their levels of comfort), and new balance 990s.
I'm a much bigger guy who goes through shoes quickly. I walk around on concrete for 9 hours, 5 days a week. I have been getting foot pain on the top of my left foot and that pain starts around 5-6 hours into my shift until I go to sleep. Spending way too much looking for the perfect shoes.
👍👍
After watching your videos I went with the Kd 14 having close to flat feet a c curved foot . After wearing them for a day it was a great purchase thanks . Also for the Lebrons I wouldn’t wear a shoe like this as I’m a guard to me they are more designed for a post player
Glad the KD’s were a good pickup - loved them on foot
You got a new subscriber after this video. 1st video ever
Thanks!
Can I play with lebrons 19 high outdoors
U deserve lakhs subscribers
Would you recommend the Lebron 19 Lows that are coming out soon? I currently have the Puma MB.01 and although the cushioning is good, im having trouble having lockdown in the heel area and my foot is slightly slipping inside when I try to stop moving. Thanks Doc
I have a pair on the way and Ive got high hopes but we'll see in a week or so
Hey, which shoe do you think is better the zoom separate, kyrie infinity or lb 19s
🤷♂️ they're all just so different
YESS been waiting for this
👍👍hope you like it
@@FootDoctorZach like every other review bro, you’re my go to when it comes to sneaker reviews 🔥🔥
Interesting. I switched from Jordans to Lebrons with the 15. The Lebron 16 is one of my favorite shows of all time. I damaged/tore the ligaments around that bone on the side of each of my feet playing beach volleyball and rolling them BOTH WAYS when landing on less-skilled players' feet as they went under the net. The 16 even before that was a monster with its Herringbone grip and lockdown and just general feel. I have a BUNCH of these that i rotate. I just purchased a Lebron 19 to give it a whirl. The jordan's and many nikes in general have been getting much more tight in the front part of the foot, particularly on the pinky toe side. The lebron line seems to be much wider (similar to mizuno shoes). I'm ready to give the 19 a shot (when it arrives), but it sounds like if they would have used that GODLY herringbone traction from the 16s... then it would be a fantastic shoe. I'm a little surprised that the tread goes all in the same direction. even if they adjusted it a bit in directions of the tread. The tread is honestly the thing i hear the most complaints about. I have pretty high arches, and with the injury, i've been using Arch Rivals inserts on advice from my orthopaedic doctor.
Yeah for me I thought the shoe worked well for what it was except the outsole
Zach!!!!!! I been saving up waiting for this shoe. Pains me to see you cut it. I love lebrons! Actually on a mission to have at least 1 of every lebron. (Signature, Soldier, Ambassador, and Witness) have about 20 now. How did you get these. Please help me get some lol. Great video tho. Glad I found this channel! Sub for sure
That’s gonna be quit a collection! Thanks glad to have you aboard
I have a pair of Lebron 17s and I can't even count how many times I have sprained my ankle in the limited times I wore them because of absolutely zero lateral support around the midsole. they did not fix it for the lebron 18s. but seems they finally fixed it for the 19s which is good to see, but the damage was done and the 17s sit in their box put away. such expensive shoes too at $200
I also own a LeBron XIX black purple colour but it is an absolute beastt
Hey does anyone know when they will actually release these it was supposed to be October 22? But I can’t find them anywhere. Need a Size 18 I am a 6’9 pro player that played overseas
I think it was supposed to but shipping and supply chain issues have just thrown a wrench
It hurts my soul when I see you cut shoes in half and I'll be thinking how hard it is for me to get a shoe that I really want in my size and I'm an 18
