or continue with this and stay neutral, I prefer he continues with informative unbiased information provision. :) Some people have to stay honest and not go into marketing haha
top notch video. every other video is some "expert" reading the description off of the box. you are actually giving us important information gathered from years of experience. liked and subscribed.
Four years has passed and still relevant! I followed the original advice and purchased Mizuno Hurricane. They had a flat insole and were very low to the ground. Hurricanes supported me perfectly through pivots and lateral movements for about two years. But it's time for them to retire. Since Mizuno had discontinued Hurricane and they are nowhere to find in my size, I had tried their other volleyball shoes. It's not the same. Mizuno raised a heel and added more cushion - which made them better for volleyball but less suitable for boxing. Mizuno new models are more narrow as well (issue for those with flat foot). For the record, the Mizuno Wave Hurricane successor is Wave Lightning. I've got Yonex Poweר Cushion 65Z3. And boy, do I love it. It's very supportive (while soft), flat (no arch) and super low to the ground. For those of your that have a flat foot, the best choice will be a Yonex Power Cushion 65Z3 WIDE. Great thank you goes to the author of this video as it is still extremely helpful even after so many years :)
I recently picked up boxing as a 50 yr old trying to get into shape. The club I joined is more of a Muay Thai club and I trashed my right foot because I went barefoot. Now I am suffering from plantar fasciitis but I must say those sole supports are really awesome!!
Great advices, as usually. Just my 5 cents - I used to train the hard way, shadow boxing with a mouth piece, running in the boxing shoes, heavy bag conditioning with a partner destabilizing it to learn landing hard no matter what and land properly - to make it all close to the real thing, and to be used to the gear. What I realized down the years, that running in boxing shoes takes tall on your knees no matter how tough your ankles and achilles are, because running on a hard surface in boxing shoes with little to no cushioning they provide does harm your knees
I just wear hyperdunks. They’re great. Hugs my foot, lightweight and the grip you feel when moving and throwing is unmatched by traditional boxing shoes.
Hey mate, I never thought about using court shoes before, but after watching this I tried a few pairs on today and wow. Just finished my first session in the ASICS Gel Rocket 9 and my feet are already thanking me. Very big upgrade on my Vans/ Converse Chucks. Thanks for the advice
I searched those ASICS gel rocket 9’s up and I’m planning on buying them so do they feel good when you are in the ring just doing drills and mitt work?
Absolutely phenomenal knowledge of foot gear. I had the same wrestling shoes in high school and they lasted me about 2.5 years of rigorous training before I had bought a new pair for college. Anyway great videos and nice honesty. Really the best channel out
Came here for boxing shoes, got the much more than that. I now know what to look in a shoe. That heel support, and insole part being deeper, side support all in all, 12/10. Awesome.
At the start i used old sneakers with a flat sole and damn, i had problems with my feet. I later changed to running shoes and it is sooo much better! The shock absorbtion in those running shoes is really amazing. I can train harder and longer without pain in my feet.
Solid details on the shoes I was looking for to train in. I was concerned about ruining my boxing boots and wanted a shoe that’s closer to that feel with durability. I appreciate you brother thank you for your wisdom. I will navigate my way through those shoes you recommended.
keep the vids coming JT, I enjpy every one and with me being new to training and the sport overall, I cant tell you how helpful these have been for me this passed year.
I buy wrestling shoes. I can't even find boxing shoes in my size. They don't make many over something like size 12. ASIC wrestling shoes are much more flat than the Nikes that he demonstrated, and have nice round spots on all of the ball points of the foot. I like the ASIC Snapdown since they are only $50. They do seem tight but will widen with a bit of use. They are really lightweight and have great ankle support and decent arch support if you do a lot of footwork, and I NEVER wear them outside. If I train outside I use a running shoe or something else. They have plenty of other models but I think that the ASIC Snapdown is an all around good show for boxing and is fairly economical.
They way wrestling shoes have they soles contact the canvas, should you be doing a lot of footwork, you may have callosity on your soles, especially if you do a lot of pivot thing. Had that experience. Just be careful.
I've been using my training shoes for my Muay Thai training. I went through three pairs in 2 years. I'm looking into using badminton shoes instead. Thank you!
Awesome video! I’ve been having knee pain when using my cross training shoes for boxing training. I switched to running shoes and had zero lateral support. This video helped me allot. Thank you!
Very interesting about the badminton shoe, makes sense. I just got my yonix's today, the exact same type. Trying them on i can feel the support and agility these shoes offer. Greatfull for the tip man! Keep up them vids ;)
A while back Nike made a very bulked up wrestling training shoe. Full sole. Really could take a beating. Shoes lasted 3 years of hard training. I dont know the model and never found them again.
Thank you Jason! Love the video's. Right now I use Reebok running shoes as my indoor shoe. So I will be looking into a new pair for sure, because these have a high back for shock absorption.
I'm an Asics man, I found that putting in a decent inner sole makes them last much longer. Most runners say you need to replace trainers in 2 years even if hardly used but a decent replacement insole seems to make them like new again. I've done everything from sprinting to Marathon distance and still do regular 10K & 10 milers.
for me the key is the shoe should have proper support on the outside of the toes...because as a traditional boxer your right foot you push off from sideways and normal trainers split down the outer edge
I do muaythai, and the canvas ring floors are too shap for my tender feet. I've found the badminton shoes to be perfect solution for training muaythai. They grip the canvas floor well without slippering
Very informative, thank you. Was curious what I should use since I do a lot of training outdoors on concrete and didn't want to ruin my boxing boots doing that.
I use mizuno wave universe 4 for training . They’re an old pair but I hadn’t used them until just recently. They’ve been sitting in my closet for a while. They’re awesome. One of the lightest shoes when it came out and very durable. Feels like I’m barefoot.
Switched to lightweight running shoe (from boxing shoes) for training. Jump seamlessly from treadmill for boxing bag floor and skipping to ring for sparring. Boxing shoe are awful for overall training unless you are doing all your work in the ring.
That was the best video about Boxing Shoes that actually did not have any recommendations about actual boxing shoes. Outstanding ability to land all the right punches where it matters.
Hi. This is a great video. There’s so little information out there about footwear for boxing training. Can I ask what current court shoes you’d recommend. The ones in the video are discontinued. Thanks in advance.
thanks coach .it doesnt matter what you wear but why you wear it .we must deserve to wear the boxing shoes say thanks to JT for helping us to do this and subscribe guys...............
Oh gosh this is a great video! Beginner equipment advice I've needed for couple of months 😂 I use Hokas to run, I get shin splints no matter what shoe I use :/ I have 16oz everlast consumer grade gloves. I do go to a club with rubber floors and do NOT use running or causal athletic running style shoes because that extra foam on the sole edge will catch doing ring circles or any lateral motion. I'm definently gong to try some indoor court shoes, if this pandemic stops. It's def killing gyms and clubs in my city but a couple of them might survive it. The landlords are going to hurt lots of people because apartment dwellers aren't covered from eviction, and 3 million people are going to be on unemployment for months, which is half normal wages. Hang in there! 🥊🙋
My gym uses astroturf for most of the flooring, which acts like sandpaper on shoe tread. Started out with Nike wrestling shoes and within a month I was sliding. Have done pretty well since with the Everlast Men's Elite, which is a hybrid shoe for boxing & conditioning. About to try out mixing in Adidas Samba indoor soccer shoe (designed for use on astroturf) - to save wear and tear on the Everlasts. Might be a lower cost option to some of the other indoor court shoes from the video?
can you do a review of the new everlast PIVT shoe, they’re supposed to be a hybrid shoe, a shoe made for boxing and also for gym use, so you don’t have to keep changing shoes.
Hey, what are your thoughts on rebook boxing boot? I destroyed my first pair of boxing shoes and bought rebook after reading a lot of positive feedback online. They are much more rigid and stiffer than my first pair, I wouldn't call them lightweight. Have you tried them?
Finally a video about something so basic yet so important!!!
high tech shoes low tech feet low tech shoes high tech feet
RIGHT?
My man!! Honestly you should be doing commercials for a sports shoe company. Well done and informative.

I use wrestling shoes for everything (sparring, working out, etc.) and they work just fine
do they work for running?
@@Burrito69killer Not unless you want some injuries, they have 0 cushioning.
This is the video I've been waiting for. Why hasn't anyone else even considered making such a video? Top quality as usual.
I recently picked up boxing as a 50 yr old trying to get into shape. The club I joined is more of a Muay Thai club and I trashed my right foot because I went barefoot. Now I am suffering from plantar fasciitis but I must say those sole supports are really awesome!!
finally i got the reason i feel so bad when i had my running shoes on in the ring
Me too
Great advices, as usually. Just my 5 cents - I used to train the hard way, shadow boxing with a mouth piece, running in the boxing shoes, heavy bag conditioning with a partner destabilizing it to learn landing hard no matter what and land properly - to make it all close to the real thing, and to be used to the gear.

+Dmitriy Solovyov thanks for sharing your experience, new boxers here will benefit
Yep. Made that mistake once also and it hurt my feet.
So that’s why I’m getting arch pain? I’ve been doing everything in boxing shoes
I just wear hyperdunks. They’re great. Hugs my foot, lightweight and the grip you feel when moving and throwing is unmatched by traditional boxing shoes.
Use for lower body workout?
Do you still wear hyperdunks? If so what kind did you use/ or do.
If you changed to boxing shoes/boots, what kind of boxing shoes did u get?
Hey mate, I never thought about using court shoes before, but after watching this I tried a few pairs on today and wow.
Just finished my first session in the ASICS Gel Rocket 9 and my feet are already thanking me.
Very big upgrade on my Vans/ Converse Chucks.
Thanks for the advice
Do you find they’re still treating you well?
I searched those ASICS gel rocket 9’s up and I’m planning on buying them so do they feel good when you are in the ring just doing drills and mitt work?
I was thinking buying the converses you mentioned but if it’s not good than okay thanks for helping
ANY video by this guy is legit, keep it up brohammer

@@stillsake I’m dealing with that now it started with my heel now it’s moving up my leg. Taking week off gonna use my running shoes
Excellent video and informative 🥊

This cleared up a lot of confusion for me, thank you

Have you ever tried Asics Matflex 5 ???

I've been using my training shoes for my Muay Thai training. I went through three pairs in 2 years. I'm looking into using badminton shoes instead. Thank you!
Nice! they definitely last a long time if you use them for indoors
Futsal shoes are great too. Flat sole, heel counter, lateral support.
Thanks a lot JT! As always, this video is a big help.
Awesome video! I’ve been having knee pain when using my cross training shoes for boxing training. I switched to running shoes and had zero lateral support. This video helped me allot. Thank you!

You still using them? What version did you get? I'm planning on buying some too.
Cheers
Thumbnails on another level 💯 🔥
Good lecture about boxing shoes
I do not care who you are sponsored by, I really do not, but I enjoy watching the videos. Thank you for the tip.
do one on headgear please!
Don't be afraid to spend more on headgear
Fantastic and informative video! Love that you touched on other types of shoes and their pros and cons.
Kudos for making this video
Damn was hoping for that shout out.
Great video coach!
A while back Nike made a very bulked up wrestling training shoe. Full sole. Really could take a beating. Shoes lasted 3 years of hard training. I dont know the model and never found them again.
love your content bro! thank you, greetings from Vienna
Use the Everlast or Title boxing shoes, they work like a dream
don't know why this video still hit only 70k views, but this video is phenomenal
respectttt..always value your time and advise
Thanks I just bought a adidas badminton shoe because of your recommendation :)
Awesome Timeless Video thank you.
Great videos recently brother really appreciate it !
Great video that gets to the point. 🙏
Thanks for this! Custom insoles are a must for me in whatever I’m doing.
Awesome review! Thanks 🥊🥊
man i have learned so much from these videos!!
Thanks for your vids, they help a lot!
Thank you Jason! Love the video's. Right now I use Reebok running shoes as my indoor shoe. So I will be looking into a new pair for sure, because these have a high back for shock absorption.
thanks coach, ill be going to a boxing gym soon wish my career luck coach thanks for teaching me boxing
Extremely useful, thanks!
JT killing it!.. maybe a video of cutting weight before a match? Your opinion on suana suits and what not.
+Richard Alegria good idea
6:50 for arch problems.
@Ole Carlos tf is wrong with you?
I'm an Asics man, I found that putting in a decent inner sole makes them last much longer. Most runners say you need to replace trainers in 2 years even if hardly used but a decent replacement insole seems to make them like new again.
I've done everything from sprinting to Marathon distance and still do regular 10K & 10 milers.
What are your favorite shoes for running?
Great video, thanks man!
thanks for the tips,,, my running shoes lasted me 4 years,,, ripped on the sides now by the small toes, but still good for light workouts
Love the thumbnail.
for me the key is the shoe should have proper support on the outside of the toes...because as a traditional boxer your right foot you push off from sideways and normal trainers split down the outer edge
As a badminton player I didn't know the shoes can be use for sparring .
Saaaaame.

I do muaythai, and the canvas ring floors are too shap for my tender feet. I've found the badminton shoes to be perfect solution for training muaythai. They grip the canvas floor well without slippering

I was looking for this on your channel like a few days ago, but it obviously didn't exist!!!
Very informative, thank you. Was curious what I should use since I do a lot of training outdoors on concrete and didn't want to ruin my boxing boots doing that.
What about jump roping? what shoe whould you recommend?
Very Nice!!👍
I use mizuno wave universe 4 for training . They’re an old pair but I hadn’t used them until just recently. They’ve been sitting in my closet for a while. They’re awesome. One of the lightest shoes when it came out and very durable. Feels like I’m barefoot.

Still waiting to see you in some fighters corner in a PPV fight you are a great coach!
Tennis/badminton shoes make sense because they move side to side
Hi. This is a great video. There’s so little information out there about footwear for boxing training. Can I ask what current court shoes you’d recommend. The ones in the video are discontinued. Thanks in advance.
Thank you
I'm a 33-year-old mom who started boxing a few months ago and this is the type of shit I need to see
Nice!!!
Thank you so much!
Can you do a video for best gloves to use?
he's got an extensive video about that
Thanks.. I'll look for it
If it's the beginner glove vid. I can hyperlink it just say the word.
GoonLordTM shoot the link
vince a he never did lmfao
This helps a lot
Didn't know you were from The Six! Represent!
thanks coach .it doesnt matter what you wear but why you wear it .we must deserve to wear the boxing shoes say thanks to JT for helping us to do this and subscribe guys...............
I'm really thankful for this video. Since training for boxing I've noticed how fast running shoes wear out. Lots of great info here!
Oh gosh this is a great video!

Nice video, pretty useful
Great info JT, badminton shoes ok for jump rope as well?
Whats your opinion about those Ring Side diablo shoes are they one of the best? Btw great video
I find casual shoes, great for boxing training, I has a pair of adidas with flat sole and thats what I used, Im thinking now of getting some lacoste
My gym uses astroturf for most of the flooring, which acts like sandpaper on shoe tread. Started out with Nike wrestling shoes and within a month I was sliding.

So... Badminton shoes at the best option for in the gym, working the bags etc?
can you do a review of the new everlast PIVT shoe, they’re supposed to be a hybrid shoe, a shoe made for boxing and also for gym use, so you don’t have to keep changing shoes.
for training i prefer using just socks because they just make you fly but sparring i use the light weight boxing shoes
Ive got quite a flat foot, wide too. . And have suffered from planter fasciitis in the past. Whats ur recommendation.
Thanks very much
Have u seen the Adidas Dame 5..? What u think about those? I think goes great for boxing
ive found that basketball shoes help with support to the ankle and achillies when shadow boxing and bag work
NikeCourt Air Zoom Vapor X will you recommend these for side lateral movements jumping rope and shadow boxing
Tennis shoes makes sense
Awsoooome thank you coach 👍
Good video thanks
So I need about 20 different pairs of shoes, got it.
Hey, what are your thoughts on rebook boxing boot? I destroyed my first pair of boxing shoes and bought rebook after reading a lot of positive feedback online. They are much more rigid and stiffer than my first pair, I wouldn't call them lightweight. Have you tried them?
