the shoe looks good, but i think they should’ve followed the design cues of Zion2. Zion2 has the classic accents which can help the zion line to be iconic.
10mins ago I searched your channel to check if you dropped a video on the Zion's 3 and here we are 😅 Also just returned mine, the side panel on the outter part of the shoe really bothered me and caused pain. Too bad as I really like how they feel but this was not to be ignored. The fit is super snug so even though I went up a full size what changed is only length.😢
I always loved playing in Zion 1/2 because they were so perfectly made for wide footer but this time I’m slightly dissatisfied with the 3. I got them on release and played them and it was unbearable after 1 hr already. Definitely not a shoe for wide footer this time😢😢
Honestly this shoe is perfect for me, feels really good on the foot, and I get extra hang time on them! But my feet are not wide, I guess that will make the ultimate difference. Only problem is that picks up dust really fast but after a swipe good as new
for a player of zion's caliber, i think his shoes would've like bron's but idk what they're trying to do with zion's line since every model is different from the next
My Curry 11’s are about to come in a couple days so I can’t wait to watch that video. Again, great quality videos and I watch almost all of them, keep up the great work
I am wide feet as I play in the zion 2 it is already pinch, if the 3 is even narrower i gotta pass. My favorite shoes is ASICS nova surge 2, it is so good for wide feet person.
Man i been waiting on you to do this video. Played in my pair over the weekend, they felt good, I'm a wide footer and I think they will need time to break in cause of all the rubber. The lock down and comfort was great but i wish they were wider. It was good playin in a shoe were I didn't have to think about my feet and could do the moves I want. Great video as always!
Can you do a comparison vid of this year drop in midsoles including this one? For you what's the best pair out there? Love to hear your thoughts. More power!
always appreciate your content, Dr. Zach! you're the best at this. Used to get terrible shin splints for playing but after watching your vids religiously and following your advice and suggestions as to what shoes to wear. It is starting to subside. Much love and much respect! btw, can you say if Zion 3 is good or bad for shin splints? cause you used to suggest that Zion 1 and 2 was good for it
Hey Doc, I bought a paid of Zion 2 after watching your review of them and I have to say it was everything I needed to help play ball again. The air storable was great for the heel and the air unit in the forefoot did what it was supposed to. The strap held down my foot too along with the heel cushion. With that said when I seen the Zion 3s they looked way too narrow, the insole looks nice but without the rest of the stuff that made the other two models what they were, looks like I should grab about pair of the 2s or maybe the Dame Extply?
I had the Zions 2 and lasted 5 months, I play 4 to 5 times a week at a concrete court, no paint and the Zions 2 are some of the best I've had for this type of court. The Zions 3 are not looking the same as far as I can see.
congratulations for your videos. They are very well made and very interesting. I have a direct question. at this moment, among all the 2023 season shoes on sale today, which is the most shock-absorbing shoe and let's say most "dedicated" to a pivot? (almost 40 years old with knees at the end of his career)
As always love the video because all I do is play basketball and they really help me out with the rite shoes for me but can you please do a review of the MB.03 really need that Thanks
I don't know if you remember but which socks are you wearing in the thumbnail? I've seen a lot of people wearing them and I assume they are made for basketball/sport...
smh they shldve kept zion 1 n 2 wide base n toe box for extra stability and confidence, with these only those who are narrow wud fit tbh. no wonder the cramping there, cannot extend the toes properly since the cut are realy narrow and the midfoot are just whatever. i wonder if i expected too much from waiting for zion 2 real successor smh, since am having overpronation issues. alas, thx for ur explanation doc.
Damn, I was waiting for these but I’m flat footed like Mike Jordan 😏, I have the 38s but I noticed some pinching🤏 around the upper eyelets. I had to loosen the top of the laces a bit. I’m still looking 👀 for a good basketball 🏀 shoe without any associated pain. ☮️
Like we have no idea how good zion could be if completely healthy Jordan brand how no idea what to do with his line I only feel like he could injured in these in the dumbest way possible
I knew these were going to take a hit the second the pictures and tech specs started getting public. The drop in killed the chances of purchase for a lot of people.
why don't you make a website or apps that can help others to pick basketball shoes by the category of your performance review such as durability, sizing, playability, etc?
Off topic but curious if youve ever recommended a carbon fiber insole which goes under the regular insole. My doctor did to support my foot with arthritis (developed after a navicular fracture). I haven't played with them yet. I feel like i lose cushioning but i may gain energy return.
So much love your contents and would you mind to review Jordan two tray I just want to know is it can for play on court and deserved for Jordan brand , Thank you.
I tried these on at the store and was like WTF? They were SUPER low to the ground as if I was standing on flip flops and not inside of a shoe. Let no cushion and felt nothing like Kobe's (insert cushions systems), was really disappointing.
Dude I bought these and they left blisters on my foot after just wearing them in the house running up the stairs … I have a slightly wide foot and went true to size … ouch
I had high hopes for this shoe but it was too narrow. Bummer. Plus, is it just me or is Nike invested in Lisfranc recovery products? They have gotten rid of midfoot shanks in most of their performance bball shoes. Is it a cost cutting issue or do they really believe most athletes don't need that protection? I had a buddy of mine deal with a lisfranc issue and its no joke.
I'm a size 14, but they don't do 14.5, only 15. is the difference between 13 and 14 the same as the difference between 14 and 15? i feel you're right, that if i go to a 15, it'll feel like a clown she and be worthless
Mannnn.. is this really even a basketball shoe 🏀? I just put them on 30 minutes ago. I just took them off 10 minutes ago. Best decision ever 😀. But hey, they look cool, and will use them for walking. Maybe swimming 🥽 bc they are so plastickey like a swim fin, and hard like a tap dance shoe. Big props to any hoopers who can play with these, or maybe something is wrong with my foot 👣
With so many mesh and woven materials these days, they're so hard to keep clean if you wear anything outdoors. Any tips for stopping this sort of shoe looking dirty /dusty quick? Even with protectant these look like I'd get them mad dirty (la melo 2 held dust like crazy 4 me on upper)
any high top basketball shoe with good full length zoom and no heel slippage? I miss playing in my jordan 29 and Curry 4s, now with all the mid cut and low cuts I bought I have been having knee tendonitis and achilles flare ups, Ive been doing strength training, and rehab for it but when I play in a shoe like kd15, luka 1s even LeBron 20 my achilles hurt like crazy. The lockdown is mid in my opinion. Heel slippage is huge and the lockdown cushion spreads out overtime and constant tightening the lace is required. I need help! Any shoe ike the jordan 29, Kobe 9 highs, Curry 4s? I tried going half size down but I also have a wide-toe box on the front so none of these have accomadated me compared to before. I always go true to size but now the lockdown these days are not as firm when I wore the 29s/ curry4s/ and Kobe 9 highs...again need help! Love always Dr.Zach
I am laughing my tears off. 140 Bucks for a shoe that doesnt even have a zoom unit in the back. If anybody really buys that greed driven shoe its just your own fault. Once again could've been a really good model. Smh.

Buy a pair at Nike: geni.us/nikesneakers
I refuse to believe they were modeled after Zion's actual foot
They’re too narrow
@@admplaysball a narrow foot is a powerful foot
Maybe the outsole tread but the general last not so much
The ones he wears are most definitely not the ones we wear
Bro be wearing that 4e special size
the shoe looks good, but i think they should’ve followed the design cues of Zion2. Zion2 has the classic accents which can help the zion line to be iconic.
We need to see the Puma All Pro Nito 🫶🏼

you can but then there might be a problem with heel slipage @@DwaneRichardsonSr.

Great video but PLEASE DO A REVIEW ON THE PUMA ALL PRO NITRO, I don't trust anyone else's review except yours
Can you do a comparison vid of this year drop in midsoles including this one? For you what's the best pair out there? Love to hear your thoughts. More power!

Extply is a good substitute
Doc, you need to bless us with reviews on both the Adidas Crazy 8 and the Kobe 8 Protro!
I had the Zions 2 and lasted 5 months, I play 4 to 5 times a week at a concrete court, no paint and the Zions 2 are some of the best I've had for this type of court. The Zions 3 are not looking the same as far as I can see.
still waiting for the all pro nitros review 😢
And the Converse Trilliants
Trilliants will be very soon
I’m wondering if you could laminate a more rigid material across the bottom of the insole to create a longer diving board effect.
Interesting thought
Thanks for doing the review! What socks are you wearing in the thumbnail?
Rigorer
Love my pair
5:11 “You ladies alright?”
LOL
I ended up modifying my insole in the toe box area, I can fit mine comfortably in my true size
Appreciate the review. How do you think Zion 3 compare to the GT Cut 2? I am currently thinking about the Zion 3 since I like the colorway.
I'm seeing Nike paying attention to li-ning + wow w/ drop in mid sole window and side designs (can't think of the shoe tech term)
congratulations for your videos. They are very well made and very interesting. I have a direct question. at this moment, among all the 2023 season shoes on sale today, which is the most shock-absorbing shoe and let's say most "dedicated" to a pivot? (almost 40 years old with knees at the end of his career)
Thanks for the video doc!
After some teething problems, I ended up really liking the Zion 2s. Not sure what to make of these...
As always love the video because all I do is play basketball and they really help me out with the rite shoes for me but can you please do a review of the MB.03 really need that Thanks

what socks are those? they look legitly comfortable
Doctor Zach,
Can you please review the Adidas BYW Select. Thank you.
Hey doc can you explain why the bounce score is low, but bounces so high on the test?
How well do you think these compare to the gt cut 1s?
Not well
Like we have no idea how good zion could be if completely healthy
Jordan brand how no idea what to do with his line
I only feel like he could injured in these in the dumbest way possible
what if i need to use another insole, with the zion 3 that will be like impossible?
Yep can’t do it
I knew these were going to take a hit the second the pictures and tech specs started getting public. The drop in killed the chances of purchase for a lot of people.

Nice looking shoe I but I can't use it due to that drop in midsole (orthotics issue)
Off topic but curious if youve ever recommended a carbon fiber insole which goes under the regular insole. My doctor did to support my foot with arthritis (developed after a navicular fracture). I haven't played with them yet. I feel like i lose cushioning but i may gain energy return.
Yeah it’s a push- pull - depends what you need it for it the pros outweigh the cons
Can u do video on barefoot shoes plus do a review on an insole called Stryda
Can we please get a review on the puma pro nitro’s
Hello zach can u do a review for Serious player one?
So much love your contents and would you mind to review Jordan two tray I just want to know is it can for play on court and deserved for Jordan brand , Thank you.
Puma All Pro Nitro, next please

Can you please review the anta skyline 1 v2 im planning to buy but i wanted to hear your explanation about the shoes
pls review the Puma MB.03🙏🙏🔥
Hello, dr. Zach! Can you tell me which is the best basketball shoe right now that i can get? There is no budget limit.
Check my top 5 videos
For outdoor better this or zion 2?
🔥 shows how tall do they make you though? I’m 6‘1 and would like to be 6‘2 or so with those
I NEED THOSE SOCKS DOC
Y the heck they didn’t put the shank on the actual sole
Doc Zach shirt is 🔥🤣
I worked hard on it haha
In regular shoes I’m a size 11.5 4E but my usual basketball size is size 14, and I’m use to it. However should I go my usual basketball size?
review of kt9 doc, please! 🥹
In the mail
I'm a size 14, but they don't do 14.5, only 15. is the difference between 13 and 14 the same as the difference between 14 and 15? i feel you're right, that if i go to a 15, it'll feel like a clown she and be worthless
what if you put in a different drop in... seems like the lateral side of the drop in creates a lot of the snug fit
Forget the shoe where the sock from ?
What socks are those zach?
respect dude cutting shoe open like nothing
@footdoctorzach what brand are those socks your wearing on the thumbnail?
could you please do the MB 03 la france puma shoe? pleassse

Nah- textile is gonna get dirty- just part of the game
@FootDoctorZach cool. Might make a good video looking at protectants under the scope once applied? 🤔 Love ya work. 🤘
any high top basketball shoe with good full length zoom and no heel slippage?

Bro that red thing in the middle is a second shank
It’s the only shank
Review of Lebron 4 graffiti?
Can I wear orthotics on top of the drop in midsole?
No
@@FootDoctorZach thanks🙏
Zion 3 🔥🔥
...can this tennis?
Serious player only game 1 zach
The shoe is too damn narrow, widefooters should go half size up or even 1 size up
I am laughing my tears off.
140 Bucks for a shoe that doesnt even have a zoom unit in the back.
If anybody really buys that greed driven shoe its just your own fault.
Once again could've been a really good model. Smh.
Luka doesnt have zoom at all
@@glebos1710 And so ?
What is your point?
Its a shame that ppl buy that at all.
Formula 23 is glorified, bit more elastic but cheap Phylon.
The common point on the Zion line is no shoe has nothing in common with the other shoe
First. ❤❤❤ I've been waiting for this.. ❤🎉
When I first saw them I thought they were a Li-Ning shoe.
The shoe is ehhh, but that Hair is looking good my man! 🤙🏽
Haha thanks
They remind me of weightlifting shoes
Nice hair
Thank you
Most uncomfortable shoe I've purchased.
This is a bad version of the Jordan 35.
Early!
⏰
They improved formula 23.
Zion 1 and 2 are kind of ugly lol I think the 3s are so much better
Agreed. Way more sleeker and Kobe-like
his voice got way more deeper and hes growing hair😕
I’m sick and congested…sorry for trying to get these videos out on time- my deepest apologies
@@FootDoctorZach nah its alright man, i just noticed ths changes and worried
He hasn't played for 4 seasons, he shouldn't have a clothing line😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Are shoes clothes?
Zion 3 is a disappointment.
Kobe 11 rip off
There's a lot of kobe rip off lul
what's funny is the Zion 3's is a better version of the Kobe 11 lol
Im all for it. Loved that shoe.
These shoes are garbage
