I wish people could get passed the idea of a mid or high shoe doing anything to prevent injury. I love playing in mids, lows or highs as long as the sole hits right and honestly I prefer the feel of lower shoes but the "style" goes to mids and highs.
People still think that higher shoes prevent injury that much. I mean, it can help but not as much as people think. As long as the shoes has a stable base, it doesnt matter at all. I do prefer mid to lower shoes too. However, as you said, the "style" its on higher tops shoes.
that ankle collar brings up a good topic u need to talk about. You should make a video that discusses high tops and ankle braces so people understand that support doesnt necessarily mean protection from ankle sprains
Zach: Love your focus on performance and tech! As you know finding the perfect fit it a challenge. If you had to choose between a shoe that was slightly long OR a slightly narrow which one would you go with for performance?
You're getting pretty bouncy! You've been putting in that work and it shows; you've slimmed down and definition in your calves looking Beasty! 💪Love the reviews bro, keep em coming!
The zoom unit in this shoe from the specs sheet look like it's similar to the Kyrie Flytrap 5. small rectangular Zoom units. Zach you should do a teardown of the Flytrap 5.
Thanks Doc for a very nice review as usual, because of that this will be my first Kyrie low then! haha I'm an RN here in PH, so shout out to all my fellow Nurses out there!
Have to go up 1 full size for wide feet. 10.5 to 11.5 for comfort.. that's how narrow it is. Prefer plush ankle of Infinity but for 2E wide go up 1 full size also
Thanks again for the good review. As a wide footer these are a pass for me. Also id like to mention early on in the video i wondered how these compare to the Zoom Freak and i got my answer. Keep up the good work and I look forward to your review on the Jordan 3.
Yeah I like watching them after I release mine- funny how a lot of time time we notice the same stuff then sometimes the complete opposite - always interesting
@@FootDoctorZach and its really nice to be at times same and different. Goes to show how much homework has been done. Also shows a lot of respect to other people in this industry. Big thumbs up for that.
i wanted to buy theese shoes today but the ankle part is rubbing against my ankle because its like solid and i could make my ankles blister, because the part its like seperated. Is that just me or?
Nike just officially announced it and I haven’t seen any youtubers in Asia feature them yet so we’re probably going to have to wait longer before Doc Zach gets a pair of those which he definitely will considering the tech and the “fact” that they’re basically the 14 lows so comparisons to the 14s can be made.
@@thormolecules they are already for sale on stock x. Also the kd 14 and 15 are completely different setup between cushlon and react. In no way is it a "14 low"
@@joeybananas6175 oh wow. Yea I wouldn’t buy it for those prices. That’s a huge ripoff for something that will sell for retail and free shipping when it’s officially released in stores. But anywho, yes I know they replaced the cushlon with react but when I say they are the lows I mean their overall look. The biggest differences being they replaced the strap with a midfoot cage and the traction is different. Btw it’s common for Nike to change the cushioning setups when going from the regular signature sneaker to the low (just check out the lebrons).
@@joeybananas6175 overall I’m excited to try them because of the react. They just kept a lot of the upper from the 14 and modified it slightly which is why I think Nike probably couldn’t come up with something totally different and decided not to release them as the 14 lows and call them the 15s instead. I mean just look at how different the 12s, 13, and 14s are to each other aesthetically.
Just copped the Kyrie low 5s today cause my pg 6 grip on the bottom collects dust so I constantly gotta wipe the dust off so it really comes down to if you’re gonna play outside or indoor with em if u finna be outside then go wit the pg 6 but inside the Kyrie low 5s would be better cause they have really good grip
Can I have one shoe that isn’t cut from 2 pairs of similar shoes u cut open 😭 I don’t mind playing with kyrie low 5 on one foot and kyrie infinity on the other foot.
My wife wears them almost exclusively for work and she’s a doctor, I wear them about 30% of the time at work when I’m not wearing shoes I’m reviewing- just depends if you like stiff soled shoes-Not for everyone but I like them
Could you tell me if the Low have a better heel cushionning than the Infinitys because i have the Infinitys and i have the feeling the heel cushionning is reall really bad!! Thanks if you can answer me.
I’m looking for a barefoot shoe for basketball. I just used the Xero Speedforce and loved them. Just not sure how long it will hold up especially if I play more often. Any ideas for a good minimalist shoe?
Kyries signature shoes always have that entry level super cheap materials look to them. I know their price point is between $100 - $130 but i can give you plenty of models within the same price range in the same brand that perform and look a lot better.
I love how he uses a box cutter to do the Pro's and Con's. Meanwhile cutting that easy through a pair of shoe's should be on the top of the list for the biggest Con.
Please do the Luka Doncic when they drop. They say they are good for lateral movement so wondering if they could be a decent tennis crossover shoe.
Yup. I’m really looking forward to the two new technologies that the Luka 1 will feature, the Isoplate and Formula 23 foam.

It helps by g8ving you feed back on ankle positioning cuz you can feel something there. But it doesn't prevent injuries necessarily
depends on ur playstyle. no one can predict how u will get injured
Exactly soccer players wear much lower shoes and make more aggressive cuts as well
that ankle collar brings up a good topic u need to talk about. You should make a video that discusses high tops and ankle braces so people understand that support doesnt necessarily mean protection from ankle sprains
I would love to know some info on the high tops vs low as well to understand protection from ankle sprains
@@tammyschreiber5507I believe all of the studies have not really shown that either style increases/decreases injury
This guy is one of the best review ever.
Thanks 👍👍🏆
@@FootDoctorZach Kyrie low5 or Kyrie 8 ??? Price are same in my country
the one that i've been waiting for!!!
This channel needs to get more attention!
Thanks- im trying 👍
Dude great video this was one of the best reviews I seen, never watched u before
I appreciate you
Kyrie low 5 vs Jordan one take 3 what’s better
Zach: Love your focus on performance and tech! As you know finding the perfect fit it a challenge. If you had to choose between a shoe that was slightly long OR a slightly narrow which one would you go with for performance?
Haha neither but I guess narrow thinking I could break it in
You're getting pretty bouncy! You've been putting in that work and it shows; you've slimmed down and definition in your calves looking Beasty! 💪Love the reviews bro, keep em coming!
Thanks! Glad someone noticed- my trainer is killing me, slowly and painfully
Seeing this channel blow up and continue to blow up was very predictable. I love to see it.
Thanks!
The GOAT shoe reviewer, back at it again!! 💯👑
Appreciate that👍👍👍
which three should i get ? curry retro 1, curry retro 2, curry 10, pg6, kyrie low 5, kyrie 8, gt cut 2
#3 on best positions should say shooting guard- sorry for the typo! - check out the Kyrie Infinities here:
ruclips.net/video/rNbwZe1ntMM/видео.html
Jordan 35 plss
is the kyrie lows is good in shooting guards?

Haven’t watched but I already know this is gonna be fire🔥
Thank you, may God bless you and everyone. ❤

Either go up a half size if you like that close fit or go up a full size if like a little room in your shoes.
So guys will you recommend them?
Thanks for another great review! Will do you a review of Converse BB shift?
Thanks again for the good review. As a wide footer these are a pass for me. Also id like to mention early on in the video i wondered how these compare to the Zoom Freak and i got my answer. Keep up the good work and I look forward to your review on the Jordan 3.
Glad it helped!
Do you think these would be good out side
Thanks for the review, sucks that this version does not have Cushlon and shankplate
I like the weartesters reference! Nice!

Would you consider doing performance reviews for previous bball sneaker models such as the Dame 5 and Air Jordan 34?
thanx fr the awesme review!
mixed signals frm various sites on whether the midsole is phylon or cushlon!
Yeah if that’s cushlon then it’s the worst cushlon I’ve ever seen
The first second hut me but Ik it’s for a good cause keep up the work 🥲
Good for guards?
Is there really quiet background music in the said background?
Hey Doc, what shoe do you think is closest to the Kobe 6 protros?
how long will they last indoors?
bro whic one is better kyrie 5 low ...or kyrie infinity ...??? i am volleyball player btw
Is this good for Achilles?
Is it better the the infinty?
great review, just wondering, what do you do with all the cut shoes? Do you just throwing them away, seems like a waste
Nope have them all- I use them in future videos
The zoom is getting smaller.
Is this shoe good for heel pain
kyrie low 5 or anta gh3?
Can you test the Tarmak basketball shoes? Wanna know if they’re actually good
So what’s the score
Do they fold in half like the 8s?
You do the bo jacksons yet? We use to hoop in the Air trainer sc tough back in the day..retro droppin again soon
Air trainer 1*
Would you recommend these if you are comfortable with the jordan zoom separates? Need a mid that can match the zoom separates
I like them but I have pain in my ankle when I wear them. there is like pressure on it, will it get better with wear or no?
No idea I’d need to see it in person
i wanted to buy theese shoes today but the ankle part is rubbing against my ankle because its like solid and i could make my ankles blister, because the part its like seperated. Is that just me or?
Why isn’t there a rating like any other shoe you do??
Any word on the Kd 15? Probably my most anticipated review from you

Could you tell me if the Low have a better heel cushionning than the Infinitys because i have the Infinitys and i have the feeling the heel cushionning is reall really bad!! Thanks if you can answer me.
Nope not imo
@@FootDoctorZachyes but is it softer than infinitys or more resistant?
Can you review Nike zoom unvrs
If i use the Kyrie 8 EP "Keep Sue Fresh" outdoors will it last long?
From the Philipines BTW :)
Shoes with EP usually it's a shoe suitable for outdoor if i am not wrong?
For me, there arent a "low" shooes like they said for marketing, there are mid ...
You should do China brand shoes, many shoes from China have great performance.
Dang, that's kinda sad that the cushion is the old school gum stick zoom :(
Next Jordan Luka 1 👏🏼
wouldn't your times on the shuttle test just gradually improve with improving fitness, rather than a measure of shoe performance?
Hey Zach! Which of these do you think will last the longest and is the best for outdoor courts. The kyrie 8, kyrie low 5, kyrie 7, or the pg 6?
In the EP they’re all similar
@@FootDoctorZach what ep?
@@justingo3257 I know this is hella late but EP stands for engineered performance and is basically a wider base.

they dont exist
If youve ever heard of kneesovertoes (Ben Patrick) he just came out with a minimalist basketball shoe. They are zero drop with a wide toe box.
I know that it is for information purposes but i always feel sorry for all the shoes that were teardown. But i will see the big picture here lol
Sprained my ankle the first time I played in these. Poor lateral containment around the ankles.
Maybe that’s just the fit but I’ve been playing high level basketball in these for 2months and they’re the perfect shoe
@@bigheadedbrandon7444agreed, it’s all about the fit because everyone’s foot anatomy is different.

just gets me so mad he cuts it in half 💔
