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

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 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 👍👍
Thanks Doc for all the wonderful non-stop reviews, I really appreciate them
Glad you like them👍👍
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
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
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
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 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
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
I know but it still hurts to see them being cut in half.
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
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!
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
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
Keep up the good work doc! Appreciate your very detailed Basketball shoe review.
Glad you like it 👍👍
Instant subscribe! You go all out in you videos! Keep up the great work. 👍🏾
Welcome to the sneakerverse
Thanks for the review
Solid vid man. Thank you for taking your time
Glad you got something out of it!
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 👍👍
Keep up the great work Zach
Thank you , I’m trying
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
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.
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
Saw 2 of ur videos and subscribed. Really cool and well produced videos.
Thanks! Glad you liked it
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
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
Just came across your channel, and I love love love it!
Glad you enjoy it!
Very educational, thank you!
Glad you got something out of it!
Zach you're legendary your review is awesome.
Thank you!
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
nice review Zach, thanks.
Glad you liked it!
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
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
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
As someone who plays both tennis and basketball loving the content with the hoop shoes keep it up!!
Awesome! Glad you like them
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. 😊
U rock with these recent shoes! Thanks
Thanks! Glad you liked it
Dr. Zach great Review as always
Glad you got something out of it!
Dr. Zach, Please do a review of the Adidas DAME 7 they have great technology and Traction especially for in and outdoor courts,,, thank you......
I want these soooo bad, thanks for the video Zach‼️
👍👍
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
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
Great review, Doc!
Appreciate it 👍
Hi Zach 👋 I love your videos,
Is there any way you could do the Kyrie Low 4? Thanks
Nice!
Love that video
Awesome! 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.
👍👍
Excellent review
Thanks! Glad you liked it
Awesome Video Thank You!
Thanks! Glad you liked it
Grazie per l'ispirazione!
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
👍👍
Another banger of a review.
Appreciate it 👍
Amazing review very accurate 🐐
Thank you!
Cant wait for the review of the nike zoom gt jump when they come out.
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 🔥🔥
Your review skills are out of this world!
Thank you, glad you’re getting something from the videos
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.
Really enjoying your detailed explanation of the advantages/disadvantages of these. Sounds like I may wait until they go on sale due to some of the problems they have
Glad you got something out of it 👍👍
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?
👍👍
I have a pair. Loved this review.
Thanks! Glad you liked it
Great video again 🤩, please could you do PG 5s next?
👍👍
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
Awesome review
Thanks! Glad you liked it
imma have to subscribe to you! Planning to get Lebron 19 instead of Lebron XX as I don't like low cut shoes
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.
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.
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.
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
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
This channel deserves more subs.
Thank you, haha i remember when someone said that wen i had 50 subs
Hi. Can you do a vid on best bball shoes for outdoor court for flat feet? Thanks
I really live this channel, like i found my beloved one
You are very detail and honest and damn dude. for cutting those shoes, i really love it
Thank you I really appreciate it 👍👍
@@FootDoctorZach nah man, i appreciete you
Hey Doc, did you ever do a review on the Lebron 18?
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
You got a new subscriber after this video. 1st video ever
Thanks!
Please review the WOW All City 9!!!!!
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
The midsole tech reminds me of Reebok’s DMX technology back in the day.
Do you have a review of the Lebron 17s? Thanks!
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 RUclips 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 👍
even w this bad sides I lik this shoes af, I’m 180 (65kg) but ey r so comfortable for me, 3-4 trains after I bought em, n I started to feel ok
U deserve lakhs subscribers
nice content bro, automatic subscribe
Awesome! Glad you liked it
Amazing 🤩 Video!!!
Thank you 👍👍
We used about 3 tourneys maybe 15 games that mesh has wore and torn. Other than that my loved them. Was hoping to get more out of them but he's out grown them now and the tearing mesh is a bummer
Hey Zach! Skechers just came out with their own pickleball shoe called Viper Court. Would love to hear your thoughts and review on them.
Saw that…I’m skeptical but could be fun
I also own a LeBron XIX black purple colour but it is an absolute beastt
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...
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
Really enjoy your reviews and the science behind the construction as opposed to other reviews that are more on aesthetics. Does this Lebron work for someone with turf toe?
Thanks! Yeah actually I would say so - stiff shank and huge forefoot stack- would seemingly be a good pick on paper
@@FootDoctorZach thank you and more power to your channel.maybe you can do retro sneakers and just how good or not so good their tech was for feet.
Hello, I'm Korean and I'm a basketball player. I've seen a lot of basketball shoes RUclipsrs 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 👏👏
Cool ) thank you )
I’m glad I’m not gonna have a problem twisting my ankle lol
pretty cool,ever interested of try the Asian version of the shoes?since we got xdr rubber should be more durable (maybe,didn't work really well for me) and wider toe space
Yep- I actually prefer that construction
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?
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.
Honestly, I am looking for something in between curry 9s and lebron 19s. 6ft5 240 pounds guy who needs to be fast. Love the reviews as always, keep up the awesome work!
Perhaps the Nike GT Cut. It has a good amount of cushion while being really close to the ground. It's known to be worn by fast players as well, like De'Aaron Fox, from the Kings.
There’s the gt runs too- hardens- new Pumas may also fill that role
@@FootDoctorZach thank You Doc for respond, i think i am gonna wait for hardens 6 because i have wide feet and chronic ankle sprains... (can not play in air zoom/max)
@@FootDoctorZach meaybe embiid 1s/hovr havoc 4 untill than?
Whenever I go for a shoe the only things I care about are first and foremost ankle protection and secondly impact protection, I do like these shoes however it’s kind of daunting to me because of how complicated it appears to be for a shoe.
Yup it’s not a simple set up that’s for sure
