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 basketball shoe’s functional attributes on the basketball court

Thanks
First
i gotta click and watch it as soon as you released the video lol.. huge fan, great videos keep it up
Hi doc
What are your thoughts between Lebron 20, Kobe's and MB 2?
Way of Wade 10 definitely top basketball shoe, Bron 20 close 2nd, 808 2 Ultras, KD15s, and PG6 round out the top 5!
I love the PG6 but I feel like its easy to roll your ankle in them. The hardens and KDs feel way more stable in the heel. Anyone else feel this way?
can you try the don issue 4s?
Still prefer the AJ36 and PG5 over these.
Add full length air strobel to the next PG6 WITHOUT CHANGING ANYTHING ELSE (UNLIKE the horror changes made to the GT CUT 2) AND NIKE WILL HAVE THE SHOE OF THE YEAR. No LeBron XX on your list? 808 ultra?
I'm offended by your decision to just out right dismiss the first 2+ months of the NBA season. They matter, and they exist in 2022! It's the 2022 -2023 season!
Wait, did you really just pick all different brands? Was this intentional? Sorry.
Jordan 36?
TBH air monarch has been a beast on hardwood and outdoors
Give aways,?
Hi Zach, just to let you know some scammer is contacting commenters and telling them to contact them on telegram. Hope no one gets screwed.
Solid content as always doc! For jumpers knee which of these would you recommend?
the extension on your shot and layups is looking good
I really like the WOW 10s, but I feel the 808 V2 Ultra is right there in performance. Get similar cushion, stability, and bite from the traction as the WOWs but with less of a hole in the wallet.
Doc is the KD 15 very different? I hated the 13 and 14s
Super mushy, I coudlnt move in them, I feel made my Achilles worse
best shoe for outflared foot?
What about the lebron 20 making your list?
Lebron 20, and still rock the Jordan 36. Wow 10s just horrifically overpriced.
Do you have any suggestions for how to fix heel slip if we are experiencing that?
The KD 15's have permanently damaged my Achilles heel. Performance is incredible, but be very careful and go true to size.
Thank you foot doctor for the Puma Trc Blaze court. So comfortable and I would say the best hidden gem.
Very happy the Kawhi 2s made it here, an absolutely amazing shoe. 5 is a bit too few in my opinion, would like to see where the Puma MB2s, Luka 1, Zion 2 and Lebron 2 would place in a top 10 or top 15.
No lebron 20?
I buy my PG6 from Asia, they are EP XDR, lasts longer and a better for wide feet.
