Really recommend any Kyrie shoes. They retail way above 100 but literally every single one is half off because Nike is trying to get rid of their inventory since they dropped him. I got The Kyrie Infinity (Kyrie 8) for 69 when they supposed to retail at $140.
@@strapped6700 ankle support is decent, first time i played in them, felt like my ankle was a bit exposed and didn't feel like as i comfortable as i would like but i tie my shoes pretty tight so it didn't feel like i would get injured or anything, i don't really notice while im playing tbh, its a great shoe
I am really really tight in budget , and my first top shoe is giannis immortality 3 , it is very affordable , it has my size ( i have smaller feets ) and of all shoes it is maybe the best , should I buy it ,i watched reviews and its really good .
The Dame 8 is even better in cushioning, compression and bounciness from my experience. Traction was better on the Dame Certified. So it probably depends on what’s more important to you, if it’s a $20 difference I personally would have taken the Dame 8. 😃
I tried on a pair at Famous Footwear the other day, decent comfort pretty typical Nike budget shoe. Didn’t end up getting them, but if they continue the line I’ll def get the next version. 😃🙏
Another solid video, Currys are super underrated. They take time to break in but they're comfortable, have good lockdown and traction is great. My new favorite outdoor shoe is the Dame Certified. Picked up a pair for $45 off DSW.
I usually play on an outdoor court and its not the cleanest and when i play on the only indoor court nearby its very dusty. Will the dame certified suit me? If not what is your best recomendation below 100$?
Hi. The Air Max Impact 4 is a better shoe. I did have a brief explanation in this video, basically just better cushioning and compression. But both great values for their prices.
It depends on your foot shape honestly. The Dame 8 and KD 15 have very different types of fit, one is good for wide feet (Dame’s) and the other is a very narrow fit.
Hi Tommy, I'm looking for a budget shoes, especially for outdoor, that have a good traction and it' s comfortable on feet. I'm undecided between Precision 6s and Stepback 3s, what do you recommend? Or if you have a better option let me know please.
Hi, the Harden Stepback 3 is a better shoe. Very durable for outdoor use and amazing traction. I do wanna bring up the UA Lockdown 6 which I just posted a video about, those are probably my no.1 budget shoe right now. Everything is great on them but it has mostly a leather upper so maybe some people don’t like that as much. But honestly at this price range these are all really good options 😃
I play indoor and outdoor. Is there any sneakers you can recommend for use in both conditions? 😃 I play about 70% indoor. Not sure which type of floor is, its not classic parquet.
@@TommyLiu4 Tnx for quick responce 😃. If I haven't saw this video I would never knew about Dame certified. I will try to find it, and maybe try Dame 8 if Dame certified is not available
What indoor gym do you recommend to hoop in? I got indoor basketball shoes a week ago and Ive been wanting to use them outside of practice like in a gym or something but I don't know which indoor gym I should go to.
@@nickraikkonen9314 Like in the Toronto area? I generally hoop all over the places, I’ll play anywhere, so court conditions don’t really matter much to me sorry 😂
Anyone I’m looking for some advice, I need a good basketball shoe that is budget, I don’t think sizing matters too much but my size is size 11 and I’m still growing my feet, and I have narrow feet. Anyone have advice what to get?
Hey, thanks bro!! Ah that’s a really tough one, super close. I’d say Harden Stepback 3 just because it’s very durable for outdoor use too. The Air Max Impact 4’s air unit is positioned lower than the previous version, so there are higher chances of it popping. But if for indoors only they’re really the same level of performance.
I don’t have a pair of the Spawn 3’s actually, only tried them on. I think they’re very similar, but the 5 does look different 😃 Court Rider’s are nice for sure! Good comfort and easy fit 👍
@@TommyLiu4 i loved the 3s but the cushion didnt last too long. Neither did the outsole. Skipped the 4s cuz they are basically same. Maybe ill try the 5s.
Ahh I see. To me the ankle area is where the biggest downside is too, weird collar shape but not to a point where it bothered me too much. Would have been perfect if it was a normal opening there.
@@khentsaludo5162 Yeah I agree I’ve tried on the 3Z5 before, way worse. They both have Micro G midsoles, but I think the 3Z6 is full-length while the 5 isn’t? Not entirely sure but again the 3Z6 feels much better.
Hey there tommy, which shoe is better between the under armour flow futr x 2 and the puma clyde all pro in terms of traction, cushion, materials, support. I play on sometimes very dusty and sometimes very clean courts.
@@sahibbains4245 Umm they’re the same level of performance to me, both top tier. Jordan 36 & 36 Low just be aware that the toe box fit can be a little tricky, some people have had their pinky toes hurting partly because of the upper materials.

Hi Tommy! Which would you consider better for a shooting guard in terms of overall performance (not only price but everything else as well) between these 2, jordan one take 4s or precision 6? Keep up the good work!
Hi! Thank you! That’s very very close but I would still take the Precision 6, for the better transition from front to back with the curve shape I guess.
Great content, as always🔥 I have a question I am considering buying the jordan one take 3, I’m a narrow footer. Is it worth 86$, are they durable, do they have good traction and ventilation?
@@lewardkeeneoppura2684 right, pretty much zero squeak but great durability for outdoors 😃 man I regret not getting the Clyde Hardwood, so many opportunities and they were on a good sale too… pretty much the only Puma hoop shoes I missed and they seem like a beast 😞
That’s a tough one. Very close, but I’ll probably take the Dame Certified knowing that they’re good for outdoors too. If we’re talking about indoors only, then Luka 1.
What were your favorite budget shoes from the past year??
Obviously the Kobe grinches coming in at a low 1165$
Mine are Dame certified and harden stepback. Kyrie low 5 and don issue 4 are good to.
Court Rider 2's
i got the jordan Zion 2 XDR . and its really cool. tech, durabily AND the classic 90’s hoop shoes looks that i can rock casually even with pants.
kyrie fly trap 2 and 3

I bought my Dame Certified bcoz of your review video on it sir
Nice 👍
I get a dame certified recently, is a great shoes, very Nice grip, y bounce is really good
Nice 👍👍
As a person that only plays for fun, mostly outdoors, would you rather consider the dame certified or the don issue 4?
Dame Certified
I had a nike precision 5 and 6. even tho they perform rly well, durabilty wise on the traction? only 2 months
Love the video
🙏🙏
I ordered dame certified, thanks for ur suggestion broo
Nice 👍👍 Hope they work well for ya man 🙏
Jordan Zoom Separate is great all around shoe for $110
Yup it is for sure.
I love KD trey X but the outsole wears out really quickly due to it's unflat design
Bruh the currys are my favorite
what position does the stepback 3 fits to?
I can only afford Nike Precision . So my pick Is precision 6 for the year. 😝
How about Jordan Stay Loyal 2 hope you can make a reviews.Thanks...
so many value picks
Hopefully there would be more budget Ball Shoes in 2023 soon....
Right I’m always looking forward to more budget shoes too 😆
Is there much difference between the same certified and dame 8? I can get the dame 8’s for $20 more than the certified
The Dame 8 is even better in cushioning, compression and bounciness from my experience. Traction was better on the Dame Certified. So it probably depends on what’s more important to you, if it’s a $20 difference I personally would have taken the Dame 8. 😃
In terms of traction, which one has the best?
Impact 4
Precision 6
Elevate 3
Air Max Impact 4

Spawn 4 looks like pg6, how does it feel compared to it
It does kinda look like it now that you mention it 😆 But the PG 6 is definitely a better shoe, more stable and better traction performance.
Another solid video, Currys are super underrated. They take time to break in but they're comfortable, have good lockdown and traction is great.
My new favorite outdoor shoe is the Dame Certified. Picked up a pair for $45 off DSW.
Thank you! Nice that’s such a value deal on the Dame Certified lol 👍👍
does dame certified picks dust at indoor court and does it have a good ventilation
Dust pick up is minimal, very good traction. Ventilation is decent too I would say 😃
Out of these pairs which one has the best cushion and durability for outdoors?
Dame Certified
Hi tommy! Wich would you prefer harden stepback 3 or Dame certified?
