I've been wearing them since January and these shoes are the BEST I ever had. I've been so surprised about how it feels. These shoes are so confortable that you forgot that you have shoes during your entire game. It feels like the shoe is merging with your foot. With the cushions all around the shoe and the midsole, the shoe literally feel like you were walking on clouds. The heel to toe transition his the best I ever had and it feel SO NATURAL thanks to the shoe form and the outsole. The only thing to improve is the durability of the rubber compound of the outsole. If I hadn't seen your video I would never have bought this shoes and found how perfect they are for me and my style of play so thank you Foot Doctor Zach for this video, your work has been the best. I'm very grateful.
Li Ning is on a roll this year!Just got a Yushuai 15 low premium and if they just put in a launch plate / long shank like the curry 10, it would go from nice to awesome. I like it more than my anta gh3. Thanks so much for making all these videos we get better educated on the tech behind the sneakers better than any other reviewer!
your channel reminds me a lot of Thinkingbasketball you’ve got such a unique but systematic system for your reviews, very objective and with so much good info hope you blow up and get into top 3 in TH-cam shoe reviews cause you’re freakin awesome at this Doc update: your channel is really unique though, i think it fits into its own tier entirely
Thanks for the review! Always appreciate you reviewing the top foreign brands as well. They really are in line with the top other brands like Nike and Jordan. And quite frankly, they are in many ways outperforming them due to flexibility in the traction being able to be used indoor and outdoor. Prices can be steep due to us being the US and these are China branded but the product is top-tier! Great review!
I've got my pair of JB1 "Coffee" yesterday and I love them 😍 It's like if Kyries and Kobes (shoes) had a baby on steroids (boom-cushion + huge carbon fiber plate) together. The build quality of this shoes is absolutely on point. 👌You also have to pay attention to all the small details. The shoebox is also very nice. I've been rocking 2 pairs of Adidas Crazy Explosive for the last 6 years, just because they are so comfortable (neoprene inner boot) and springy thanks to boost and the torsional plate. Boom Cushion is like boost 2.0 More reactive and much more lighter than boost. From the first moment I'd put the JB1s on they felt like they were moulded. Very comfortable, despite having wider feet, I went with my normal size 12 and it was the right decision. The fit is incredible. Thanks to their shape, the JB1s are looking smaller on feet than all my other basketball shoes. I can't compare them to Nike, because since 2016 their performance basketball shoes got simply too narrow for my feet. Paid 170€ in Germany (tax included) The same price, as on the shoebox (1299 ¥) EDIT: had to send them back, because of two reasons. 1. Despite wearing thick basketball performance socks, my heel was slipping. 2. The outsole showed after 15 minutes of light practice first signs of wear. A teammate had JB1s too and showed me his outsole. After 2x practicing the honeycomb"outsole" (foam) is already slick in high wear areas. 😮
I think you'd like the GT Jumps. One of the only shoes I've put on and felt like they were made for me since the crazy explosives. Only issues i've had with them were from not wearing my orthotics(arch pain and blisters), and one pair rubbed my achilles weird. Besides that the tech and fit is next level
Doctor Zach, since durability on outdoor courts can be such a huge factor, I have some video ideas: Best Outdoor Court Shoes of 2022 and Worst Outdoor Court Shoes of 2022. Or put it together Best/Worst Outdoor... You can refer to your shoe guide again, too (one more time for 2022).
In China this shoe retails for 187 usd and you can buy for about 130 usd, the add on price mostly comes from the shipping and high tax on Chinese brand product cause by the tariff war
Actually, the most significant improvement for Lining shoes is the fit. they were using pretty good materials a couple years ago, but the fit was never spot on. The first shoe that got improved last was the ac9, they fit more like nike now, even the sizing.
Amazing Review once again, thank you Doc Zach 👌🏻 May I request if you could review the New Balance Two WXY V3 please? Hope your ankle gets better soon and more power to your YT Channel! 🙏🏻
Hey, doc, Two or three ideas for shoe reviews, 1. Is there away test how much impact protection midsole gives, like putting the shoe on scale and dropping bowling ball on it and you get the results in newtons, (or steel ball that is dropped inside of transparent pipe to measure bounce of the ball) 2. Get microscope , it would be cool to see diffrence for example between boost and react , and maybe there is something that can be seen when the shoes get older and diffrent way they break a part in ”molecule” level.
not sure if anyone's already said this but the outsole is some type of rubberized foam, im guessing like a tougher version of the outsole on the hoka mach 4/5
Unless I have missed it, but some other reviews gave a thumbs down on the outsole is not rubber. what was result of the sole when playing; did you lose tread?
Hey Doc was wondering if you could do a video list of basketball sneaks that fit and feel like the WOW 9’s. I love that high up “booster seat” feel they give me, I’m 5’11 but when I put them on I feel 6’2. Would the JB1’s give me a similar feel?
the argument here, is that IF Lining put out sale for replacement/upgrade DROP-IN, the investment doesn't look so steep- also given that the traction can hold-up for 2 freshly lifetime of those DROP-INs.
hi bro, from the website you just put, may ask? how many days did u receive the shoes?? and how many days if in Chicago and California bro? thank you men and have a great day =)
You should test the kobe ad nxt 360,they are verry similar to the jb1 with better lockdown,lightweight similar cushion(lunarlon and react is like boom).
Hey Zach, when you say true to size, are you referring to the US size?Size? I noticed these translate into a euro 41.5 for and 8.5 instead of a 42. Thanks!
I play volleyball and I like them a lot. No disadvantages at all. As a volleyball player you just don't want them too heavy. The weight is totally fine compared to most Mizuno and Asics even a bit lighter.
I thought the outsole was like the curry flow With the "midsole" being the outsole But still it a good shoe just very expensive li ning should make more budget models for their signature models
Funny you should ask: Top 5 Pickleball Shoes for Indoor AND Outdoor 2023 th-cam.com/video/u182FYyaGOo/w-d-xo.html - they’re indoor shoes mainly though so it’s apples and oranges vs the pros
Sad story to share, currently only the high end shoes or sneakers are made in China, more cheap shoes are outsourced to Vietnam or other Southeast Asia countries.

You gave me a mini heart attack on that dunk 😅 I was like "Doc dunking with an ankle brace? Tf?" LOL. Love this shoe. Definitely gonna get one!

Wow, thanks!
How is the court feel? In general, as a viewer, I would love to hear just a quick mention on the court feel in your videos!
Thank you so much for the review🙏🏻 Jimmy Butler has always been my favorite shoe so it is nice to see he finally has his own signature shoe
Glad to see you back, I love the reviews

is this in indoor court or outdoor court. As you should save them for indoor

This has been the year of Lining. They are clearly the best overall basketball shoe company now.
Yes because most pros and college players wear Lining. NOT

Good ideas
Are the jb1 better than the Kobe 8 and serious player only and 808 would be good for me to know before purchase
Great review bro
Love midle cut ❤️❤️❤️yeees next video please
Need a link to get a pair!
not sure if anyone's already said this but the outsole is some type of rubberized foam, im guessing like a tougher version of the outsole on the hoka mach 4/5
oh hell yes, my favorite reviewer reviewing my favorite player's shoes
Unless I have missed it, but some other reviews gave a thumbs down on the outsole is not rubber. what was result of the sole when playing; did you lose tread?
Bulter just hit a big shot to win vs bulls in the JB2,
NEED THEM OPENED UP, almost 300 bucks i mean WOW
Hey Doc was wondering if you could do a video list of basketball sneaks that fit and feel like the WOW 9’s. I love that high up “booster seat” feel they give me, I’m 5’11 but when I put them on I feel 6’2. Would the JB1’s give me a similar feel?
Asked and received. Thank you! :D
Zach….since you’ve been customizing shoes…what if you put a carbon fiber plate in the 808
Nice idea, has anyone done the mod?
The Allcity 10v2 Terminator has been launched(AllCity11), I think you need to reserve some space in your ranking list...
How do these compare to wades? Such as the 808 2 ultra V2? Or the AC 11
I’d love a pair of Butlers but I don’t think the price matched the product here
They are steep
the argument here, is that IF Lining put out sale for replacement/upgrade DROP-IN,
the investment doesn't look so steep- also given that the traction can hold-up for 2 freshly lifetime of those DROP-INs.
hi bro, from the website you just put, may ask? how many days did u receive the shoes?? and how many days if in Chicago and California bro? thank you men and have a great day =)
Ok. I am getting these. In this color way.
These vs the AC 10v2s- which iteration of boom foam felt more bouncy and fun?
Foot doctor u should review the li ning yushuai 14 boom nth high top and low top I thjnk it’s one of the best shoes of all time
The outsole I think it's foam type of outsole like a curry flow and not a rubber one.
is this bouncier than the wow 10? does this have more heel cushion than the wow 10?
Whats better JB1 or All City 11
One of the best sneakers 2022 it's my opinion, that 👟 look awesome 😎, even Jordan brand.
what would you recommend, this or the wow 10
what's the difference between normal wade shoes?
Tell us more about the grille on the side! What is it for, and what's behind it?
Containment for the drop in
You should test the kobe ad nxt 360,they are verry similar to the jb1 with better lockdown,lightweight similar cushion(lunarlon and react is like boom).
Jb 1s for 169 cop or drop
I believe the “rubber” is a foam of sorts. Sort of like the curry’s
Hey was wondering where I would get the purple and black pair of these! (JBL1)
Where do you buy these cause the site that pops up looks shady?
WHERE WHERE DO U GET them pleaseeee i need theemmm
between these and the KD15's do these feel faster? And which ones would you say are bouncier?
These are bouncier for me- speed was similar imo
Where did u but that shoes?? I wanna buy it, I need a reliable website and store to buy those shoes
extension on the lay ups looking good
Thank you, i think the ankle may have helped fix that habit- cant jump as freely so im forced to
Doc, just want to ask a question, what socks brand are you wearing? I see that often...
Thanks for your response...
Bombas /apthcry
Do these run true to size? I use a size 10 on the Lebron 20 should I do my regular size?
Can you do a review on the way of wade 808 2 ultra ple
My regular shoe size is 10 but for most basketball shoes I need an 11.. Will a size 11 be to big for me?
Hey Zach, when you say true to size, are you referring to the US size?Size? I noticed these translate into a euro 41.5 for and 8.5 instead of a 42. Thanks!
I do everything in US
@Foot Doctor Zach I figured. Thanks for the reply!
Should i go true to size or go half size up on this?
Do you think it will be good for volleyball? Lot of lateral movement and explosive jumps.
If you like drop ins yep
I play volleyball and I like them a lot. No disadvantages at all.
As a volleyball player you just don't want them too heavy. The weight is totally fine compared to most Mizuno and Asics even a bit lighter.
I have both wade 808 2 and wow 10 and they are both size 11 and fit very snug. Should I get the same size for the JB1?
Hey, Can these midsoles fit in the wade 808s?
I thought the outsole was like the curry flow
With the "midsole" being the outsole
But still it a good shoe just very expensive li ning should make more budget models for their signature models
CJ signature shoes way more reasonable.
@@chrisf6791 can't wait for the cj2
All city v2
808 2
Speed 9
Very good outdoor guard shoes
@@neospiderman2165 I like cj2 aesthetics,can't wait either.
And li ning has interest in Kyrie.
Came here to say this/second this, I too was told by Li Ning that the sole is midsole material, like the UA Flow, not rubber.
AND NOW NEW IMAGES OF THE ALL CITY 11 JUST CAME OUT
Where can we get JB1’s from Zach? Are Famuji sneakers good?
Yup that’s where I get all my Anta/361/ lining
Do adidas stabil next gen 2.0 and 1.0
Please do the Li-ning Dlo ice blood v2
can you wear for tennis/pickleball? AND WOULD THEY last like nike vapor pro?

th-cam.com/video/u182FYyaGOo/w-d-xo.html - they’re indoor shoes mainly though so it’s apples and oranges vs the pros
Can I put a insole on top of the drop in midsole
Can you take out the drop in mid sole and replace with a orthotic?
I wouldnt
@FootDoctorZach how would these work for tennis/pickleball?
Indoor hardwood pickle fine but no tennis- watch the outsole section
What socks are you wearing in this review?
I think bombas
Big baller status? confirmed💰💰
Where did you grab from?
Stockx
Any stores in the U.S. that have these shoes to try on?
the outsole is actually a foam
Arent these a foam bases tread like a Curry?
Kinda sorta
Is this better then the wade 10?
Depends what you want
@@FootDoctorZach whats ur personal fave or should we wait for 2022 vid
How did u get these
Link in description
You forgot to mention to outrageous price on these
Damn price
You have been killing it !!
Great review 💪🏿🧠
Cannot wait for the review of AG 3 PRO from 361 those are 🔥💯
I wish someone did a review on the 361 Zen 4 AG shoe....No one from the US has done a performance review yet.
@@jimmywarren01 i wish, has to be 🔥💯
@@jimmywarren01 definetly agree the Zen 4 seems to be 🔥💯
300 fn dollars... craziness sorry for f bomb but damn
5:39 LOL
I don't think it's a rubber outsole. Straight foam like Curry's.
It’s a combo compound
I wish i have that shoes but i can't afford it
Why did you cut 300$ shoes. Bro just review it regularly.
