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

I really like the way you review shoes. Especially Basketball Centric Shoes! And its true and I agree about the Harden Vol. 6 being the top 1 Outdoor Shoes! Here in Philippines we play outdoor basketball all year long and all of the shoes that I've tried so far this year my favorite is the Harden Vol. 6 and next is the Trae Young 1 which offers boost on their midsole. Your reviews really helped me to choose the proper shoes! Thanks Doc Zach!

Would the babablot jet Mach 3 be good for basketball?

[zetymacho]

How do I make sure I get ep version of Nike gt jump shoes

[ikbaliyenizam]

Hey! l need your medical view in this topic.
Do you recommend or think its ok to buy used shoes? Would replacing the insole deep cleaning and washing it with %95 alcohol be enough. Should l maybe replace the tongue. Or used shoes must be avoided at all costs because of fungus.

[rescuehelly]

Can you talk about the Nike Asian version with XDR for outdoor?

[harrisonbrandt]

I play mostly outdoor but occasionally indoor, would you say the Giannis immorality or the puma mb01 are a good buy?

[pogiako]

What do u think is the best? Pg6 or Kyrie 8 infinity?

[Jose-yxlq]

What about the newbalance wxy v1? I bought them because in your video you said they were good for outdoors 😭.

Hi Doc, regarding the harden vol. 6, I heard that they are not really breathable, what's your take on that?
