😀🙂
I seriously just bought shoes yesterday and you drop this vid 😭
💯🔥
When is the next live stream
I was literally going shoe shopping today. Thanks, Zach!
love the lego office in the background
All city 12 is really that great of a shoe huh. Can't wait to have it!
wow 10 low
vs
wow 10 mid
vs
all city 12
what is your best shoe?
GT jump 2 for bounce is not there?
any shoe for Plantar Fasciitis?
what could help me recover from/prevent meniscus injuries?
Love the long format video! A lot of shoes has been appearing on almost all categories. At this point its just preference because they are all really good. Some shoes just have an edge on some categories. Also, WoW 11? 😳
I know it's not your sport, but can you do some recomendations for volleyball players?
Thanks Doc Zach, league is near in our country. Your vid is always on time. Much love from Philippines.
Yes i definitely need these!!! Thanks doc!! Also could you take a look at the li ning yushuai 18? And how they compare to the ultras? My wallet wants to know😂
I bought the dame 8 extply 2 weeks ago and they fit all the categories i was looking for except of the weight , but i don't really worry about that because im 16 and Still growing and im on a bulk
I love these videos!
whoa, thank you for the video. I picked up the two wxy v4 not so long ago (3 months?) the first time I used that, my pinky toe is hurting so much. The friction to the side of the shoe is just too much for my wide feet. however I break it in, and now it is fine (I also change socks). although it's not the most comfy to walk on for too long, especially around the arch area, I am still enjoying it.
I also solely playing outdoor in Tokyo, and it is holding on pretty well.
Pls have for a big man center and wide feet thanks
best shoes with low heel toe-drop?
I know Doc Zach puts time stamps on this vid, but I really didn't feel the need to skip any of the content! Great vid overall!
Literally perfect timing on the recovery road from shin splins and needed to know what was good
Hey Doc I always play outdoors and I'm confused on which one to get as my next shoe Fission 9 or All city 11 v2? I've played on SoF and would like an improved experience.
Also, they're both on sale at 80 USD here.
Where are the serious player only?
Bro I just bought the harden vol 8 yesterday…
Fresh foam BB V2 busted my forth toe on my left foot 😤 it’s a tab on the inside of the shoes rubbing against my sock and toes. I’m taking those back today
I wear a men’s 13 / 13 & a half
Shoes are hard to find on shoes & online
So i just bought luka 2 Hyper pink colorway what's your thought?
I bought wow all city 12 a month ago i did like it but unfortunately i sprained my ankle by landing on my friend shoe while using it for the first time on practice, i get it true to size(us 10⅓) kinda hurts playing in it for the first time but now it's better and somehow i feel arch pain playing in my kyrie 6 (us 12 btw) idk kyrie 6 is that narrow or the plastic strap is digging on my arch
But anyways great video doc
Don issue 5 are uncomfortable to break in. I’m about to give up on those
WoW 11 on the list….review coming soon?
Thank you for this info doc!❤
Can you review on the puma clyde all pro team?
You are the best Doc Zach!
Amazing video! Basketball shoes are so popular now also for volleyball players, it would be great having a category also for that! I am of course one of them 🙂
this is the one ive been waitor for since february! thanks doc!!
I may be mistaken but I ain't see any Kobes. Is that because they are hard to get? I see on every NBA team 4-6 be wearing Kobes
Did WOW all city 12 show up on every single one?
Been waiting for this for awhile thanks doc!
yo shoutout for "wide feet" being the first category at the front!!!!!!!!!!!!! <3
Is that a Lego replica of The Office!?!
For myself this year the best all around shoe is the WOW AC12.
Been waiting for this one! You’re the best at what you do 🙏🏾
