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
Some of the main areas we cover in this basketball shoe playtest, teardown and performance review are:
- The weight, durability, fit and playability
- What are the features of the insole, midsole, and outsole
- Way Of Wade basketball shoe technology explained

Maybe someday u will notice my comment maybe u have some extra shoes there just badly needed hope u will notice I'm from Philippines watching ur YT videos I love how u make review the one that I really love u review was the addidas adizero bcoz I always play outdoor ❤️
🙏🏽 Thank u can you do the all city 11 next
Which is better way of wade 10 or kd 15?
Is the SOF more durable than fission 9?
Copped them and used it outdoor. That rubber is a tank! Worth the money. Not that bouncy but you’ll get that stability. The boom inside is not to be underestimated, You can feel it.
Is it a lightweight shoe
@@Seashark94^^^. I wanna get them for outdoors, but I don’t want a heavy, bulky shoe
true to size? are you narrow or wide footed?
Great vid as always! Thanks doc!
thanks for doing this video
Pleasantly surprised by how thick the boom inserts are.
Why
@@carrjared5227 some shoes really skimp out. the pebax in the Mb.01 is tiny by comparison
is this okay for wide feet
@@fiebz3835no half size up
@@fiebz3835recommended going up half a size if you have wide feet
Great review! Would love to see a review of the New Balance TWO WXY V3, I've been hearing so much buzz about them!
These are a super fun shoe, I'm glad you got them! To me these would be one of the best WOWs/LiNing shoes if they had implemented full length Boom, but it's understandable why they didn't. Cloud foam is solid, I used to really enjoy hooping in Cloud foam on their older Yu Shuai line, but just shows how far their cushioning has come along. (If these had slightly more impact protection these would be a definite go to.)
😮
Great Review Bro 💪🏿🧠💯
Cannot wait for the review of Li-Ning Liren (Sharp Edge 3 ) V2,
those are 🔥💯💥☄️
Thank you for the review on these! These do indeed fit their name. I hope you may come across the shoe ASICS nova surge low
I was convinced their for me once you said the first step
This is the best value for money outdoor shoe for me. I am a 4E and I just went a full size up. It fit great.
I'm a size 9.5/2E and went true to size with this and they actually fit me well! They're def not the most plush but you can def feel a little bit of comfort. One thing though I noticed they fit a little too snug on the midfoot and find a little soreness after playing in them. Just be careful!
Love the video Doc!
Son of flash 2 is now available. I’ll wait for your review. Thank you so much!
Hey, I love your new more scientific review system. Would you consider trying the kobe 6 WBK performance reps? They are almost the same, some parts come from the safe factories, the main different is the fit and the extra zoom unit in the heel. I think it would be cool to see how they perform differently verses the same.
Thank you doc!!! ❤
Great review Doc, loved them, but unfortunately can't get them to be delivered in India. They seem so good for outdoor use.😕
Fantastic review! Considering the fact that on the way of wade site they recommend going up a 1/2 size I’m a little confused as to what size I should get. I wear a 10 with the kyrie infinity and a 9.5 with the luka 2 because i felt like they ran a little long. So should I be getting these in a 10 or 10.5? I also wear an aryse ifast brace which is not too particularly bulky. Thanks 🙏
I'm a size 8 women's which should be a size 6.5 for men, with the size up being a 7 but that has been out of stock for a couple weeks and I am worried the 7.5 (in stock) would be too big, should just wait longer for a restock but I also don't know when that would be, or just order the 7.5
These have not been performing well indoors for me, primarily in the traction the department. It tends to pick up dust quickly even on clean courts and since the rubber is on the harder side, it didn't bite the floor well. I plan to try them outdoor as they seem to be catererd more towards that vs. indoor usage.
Please review the lining cj2 , the peak AW 1 or Wiggins1 and the rigorer sniper 2 or war ender 2
hey zach, are you going to do a review on the kobe 4 protro gigi when they release?
FDZ, would you recommend Powerstep Bridge or Move Game Day Pros to put in my daughter's KD15 after she recovers from shin splints? I heard you say the Game Day Pros take about 3 weeks before they start feeling good.
I thought it was just me, my left foot always hurt when I used SOF. Planning to sell them
I usually use 8 for my casual and 8.5 for basketball but 8.5 is not available in the website for more than a week now. So I am considering on size 9. But im not sure maybe it would be too big for my feet. should I buy 9???? Or wait for the restock until when??? Any comments with regards to sizing of this shoes is much appreciated.
I might cop those look fire
These shoes has the most overall best performance out of any shoe ever made specifically for outdoors that guarantees outdoors durability performance. Mos def copping one after this detailed review! Great content your work is valued!
does anyone know if they're good for wide feet?
(I've experienced toe and pinky pain from other shoes before)
No, it's snug
@@foamx9201same bro! I copped some gt cut 2s like a month and if I wear them for any Ionger than 30 minutes my pinkie toes get all blistered
@@foamx9201 Get a half size up from your normal shoe size if you're wide footed!
Best shoes I’ve had in awhile, hopefully they hold up
Do you find the outdoor shoes grip better than indoor shoes on dusty/dirty indoor courts? Any recommendations for these dirty wood courts?
Looks like the extended outsole in the front/side is pinching the material where the thunderbolt ends. How's it holding up after a few use?
Hello Doctor, Can you do the Austin Reeves signature shoe too. Rigorer AR1. thank you doctor :)
How would you compare this with the All City 11?
can you do the review of the way of wade fission 8 ?
Son Of Flash received decent ratings. Can be used outdoors and indoors.
I really liked the newest street model Wade FISSION 8. I hope to see their review on this channel.
I'm looking for the sonic 11 myself the cj 2 is just 2 expensive
Hi Zach, how is the ankle support on this sho compared to the shadow 4 and Fussion 8?
hi doc, GH4 seems to be out now
Hey which shoes do you think are better the son of flash or the kyrie infinity
Do you think they will be good with the move insole ?
Thank you for doing this video, I’ve been waiting for a good review like this. About the durability of the outsole though, is the rubber for both the flashes and herringbone the same, and if so, how long do you think these would last on driveway type concrete? Also, how deep is the traction pattern?
Pretty much one of the most durable shoes in the market that performs well.
Could you revisit the wow 9 using the newer low top version ? I've heard they are the one of the bounciest shoes ever made and there isnt a better reviewer when it comes to explosive shoes .
Would the Son of Flash be the best WOW shoe if I switched the insoles to Move Game Day Pro insoles? If not, how close would it be to the wow 10’s?
Which shoe is better for outdoor performance, the All City 11 or Son Of Flash?
can you try converse all star bb shift?
Hi, could you review Saucony Endorphin Shift please?
What other sneaker cushion would you compare this to??
Can you review the way of wade fission 8
Can you please do a review on yushuai 14!!!
Are these bouncier and more suitable outdoor than AJ37 XDR?
Im from México and I want to order them. The problem is there´s no Li Ning stores down here jajajaja, I´m scared they dont fit. For example, i´ve used 10.5 US-M Kyries, but an 9.5 Air force 1 pair fit just right, even a little bit bigger. Can someone help me? Are these fits just right into ypur foot actual size?
Are these better than the way of wade 10?,do they have more bounce or are better constable than the way of wade 10
Why do u make a giveaway on one of these sneakers? I'd really love to have em
Where we can buy this online?
I’m actually from the Philippines
hi brother. i want to know son of flash or wade all city 12 for the bounce of which shoe bounces more.
love the video, how would you compare these between the other way of wade shoes you've tested
Oh and would you say the way of wades are better than the PG 6's
@@byKyleFordI would say indoors PG 6 by a long shot, but outdoors would be son of flash just cuz of durability. but you still wouldn't go wrong with pg 6
@@poltgaa thanks bro, been considering the son of flash, pg 6 and now the all city 11's XD
I had these same sneakers back in 79 , they were called bo bo's
What size should I get if I have a wide feet? I am size 11 and the All City 11 fit me just right. Should I get the size 11 or 12? Justice for size 11.5 feet!
Can anyone tell me if these sneakers are good for running, or simply for going out casually at night to a party or something like that? I'm new to basketball sneakers and I really like the look of them but I don't play basketball. ps: I was looking at the KD16 and I thought it was pretty too
Would you recommend these for volleyball?
Do you have a review of the orthotics? How do they compare to Move or other insoles? Any particular shoes that would go well with them?
I don’t have a full review on here but I do on Instagram- they’re more for rebound comfort - best in shoes with harder /less forgiving midsoles
Please review the 361 DVD 1
Please review 361° DVD 1🙏
Would these work for tennis clay courts?
I'm a guard and mostly play outdoor basketball, which is better? Son of flash or nike precision 6?
Playing in an outdoor tourny soon. Looking to max out vertical performance and I don’t mind sacrificing comfort. Would you say this would be a good buy or would you recommend something else?
I’d personally rather have the Fission 8 with the dual shank but both are decent
Which shoe is better? Son of flash or fission 8?
Pleas try the ultra boost light
Please hope soon I see you review and cut off the shoe of Andrew wegins peak AW1. Hope you notice Ser.
which is more durable harden vol 7 or son of flash?
Is it safe to play tennis with these shoes? I know built for basketball but transferable?
Would you recommend these for tennis? :p
No bs prolly the best indoor hoop shoe I’ve ever owned, 1ups any Kobe shoe too
I’m considering these for my next pair of Pickleball shoes. Would you recommend them for outdoor Pickleball?
The way of Wade fission 8 is a bit better IMO but they’re good
Open to anyone's opinion, what colorway do you think is the best?
Grey boy solid
White for sure
Letsss go 🎉🎉
Im looking more so for bouncy explosive shoes for indoor volleyball and spiking.
Which would you say fits that profile most. The son of flash, fission 8, or 808 3 regular?
i've been wondering the same question . Have you figured out yet?
@LucasPhTH-cam haven't bought any of them. But from other reviewers Ive asked. It seems it goes fission 8, sof, then 808
What 1-1 means on size recommendations? 7:06
Would the SoF also last and be good for running? I’m planning on doing track and basketball. So I’m just wondering.
I wouldn’t
@@FootDoctorZach alright I’ll just have to switch between pairs for both then
what socks was bro wearing I need those
is it A midcut or low cut shoe?
How is it compared to fission 8
I think it would be fun digging in to the one designed for "Making you jump higher" but I forget what they're called...
APL- already did a review on them
@@FootDoctorZach Oh Wow, I'll go check that out now...
would you say Powerstep Bridge, Pinnacle, Pulse, or Protech for energy return, very mild overpronation with medium normal arch
I use the Move GameDay Pro insoles & they are great! It's kinda worn out so I'm looking into the Powersteps. Any thoughts on what insoles are better for OA?
son of flash or ac 11? I got wide feet and need traction and something with ankle support becuase i sprained my ankles in kd15s so I'm looking for something better
Just depends what you want out of them - they're very different shoes so id see what performance characteristics you want most
I ordered half a size up but I think I'm narrow footed would it be much of a problem?
How was it?
son of flash or pg 6? im used to the pg 6 and love them would the son of flash be able to compete?
I'm wondering that too
is it good for volleyball , asking specifically for middle blocker position
I don’t see why not
Let's goooo 🔥👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Looks like a well designed and constructed shoe!
is the son of flash good overall or should i but lining all city 11?
son of flash
Do andrew Wiggins
We NEED one for kd trey 5 x
Dunno if anyone will find this but, im 5"11 size 11 and was wondering getting these for volleyball be good idea? Im about 90 kgs never had wades but heard they are good
For volleyball get All City 12
giving the people what they want
Any thoughts on how these would play for tennis? Seem like a good option for that as well
Not terrible for sure
I'm an all court player, fast, but I'm older (52) and the Zoom Pro 2s I have aren't giving me the boost I value and actually feel my feet pulling out when I move back and forth quickly. Gel Res 9s are good, but not as fast as I wanted, so thinking maybe this shoe or the new lacoste slt@@FootDoctorZach
Do you think flash is better than cut2,808 ultra?
Gt cut yes- 808 just different
Can these be used for tennis on a hardcourt ?
Yep
Where can I buy this ? my size is 8.5 do I need to add .5 like I buy 9 instead of 8.5?
Link in description
@@FootDoctorZach it says link not found
What do you think about these for pickleball?
Awesome
Anyone know how the white ones look after a wearing them a lot??
Would you say these are better than the wow 10 lows?
I wanna know too
