If you the type of player that always runs and jumps a lot, this shoe is for you, plus it feels more comfortable setting your foot for a jumper i dunno why, but every time your pulling up for a jumper the curve of the shoe feels nice
Been using this for over 6 months and probably the only shoe to last me this long while providing consistent grip during speed stops and quick direction changes, def would buy this again cause it just has a bit of springy but responsiveness to and you cant forget the lockdown the lockdown is soo good not once have i rolled my ankles
i just noticed that sammy talk a lot of details about the shoes if he's impressed about it 😂 but there's nothin a lot to say if you're not feelin the shoe tho. love your content man keep it up❤
Thanks Sammy. I watched your review, when you posted it, I picked a pair up today at a Nike outlet for $44.99. Was a no brainer at that price..I couldn't believe it when i saw the price. Seems like lots of ppl sleeping on this cuz even at that price the shelf was full from top to bottom.
Academy are good budget shoe for teams (coaches) who can't afford GTC3 or Kobes! My son (4th Grade) has the LBXXI and refuses to wear them casually and hoops in them "carefully" because he saw the price tag during Christmas, lol! Although, he has 3 pair of Way of Wades and those aren't cheap due to shipping. Nonetheless, another good review!
Sammy after all these years, why the tractions that were made for outdoors perfoms well indoors. Which leads me to believe that the compound/hardness of rubber made for outdoors is the thing that affects the grip of the traction. This is apparent on Chinese brands if you think about it
Bro the ja 1 are really ass like for real they ain't that good. On the other hand gt academy giving competition to gt cut 3 is phenomenal for a budget shoe. So my preference go for gt cut academy it's a clear win
To keep it simple the Ja is better but for like 40 dollars cheaper it’s close enough that you should probably go academy especially if u like the aesthetic and if u play a lot outdoor
hello there. i have a question. i have nike renew elevate 3 size 9 and it fits me perfect. should i go tts for the nike gut academy or up half a size? hope you can reply. thank you
I really like the Sabrina’s comfort, flexibility and traction. It is just an overall good shoe that I think fits all feet. However, the durability can become a little bit of an issue later on but overall great shoe. Haven’t tried the gt cut academy tho
Should have been nice but that two piece outsole made it bad. That heel part would detach not for long starting from the middle due to hard stops. One piece outsole would always last twice as long on my experience. Why don't they just rerelease the gt 1s and make a ton of it if they making these trash decoupled outsoles anyway. Would sell out no matter how many🤷
The traction is just too good. You could hurt yourself if you're not used to it. The shoe is great for players who like to play uptempo, small guards who like to wreak havoc.
I got these and they feel really good traction is amazing just gotta wipe once or twice on dusty courts but overall this shoe is really good id definitely recommend these
@@iguessso214 ye both better i tried both but i love jas because the cushion is not bad it doesnt hurt the support is good because the lockdown like a socks super tight and traction top tier even there soap on floor it will work but its so high on the ground im a dribble lover so i want to feel my foot get down on floor faster.
Considering Nike is the standard for true to size fit why are you saying that you go up half a size in all your Nike Fitz so what does that mean exactly when everybody else uses Nike as true to size because you’re just being different for the sake of being different and this causes confusion in your reviews
No reviewers ever say Nike run small. The industry standard of TTS is Nike. Sure Nike get it wrong occasionally but every reviewer refer to Nike as TTS, and occasionally put Adidas as 0.5 too long. For non wide foooters this is 100% the case.

Me too today $39.99 plus tax was $44 great steal. I wish they had a different color besides white though.

BEEN WAITING FOR THIS REVIEW😭😭😭😭😭UR DA 🐐
I would save money and get this instead of the Cut 3. Double up when on sale too.
Recommend this hoop shoe for lightweight guards.
Thanks for this review!, I have wide foot and I decided to go up half a size and works great. i just changed the insole
I love the traction and looks of it
Is it good for mainly outdoor use ? I play both indoor and outdoor. But I don’t want my shoe to tear up so quickly because of outdoor courts
is this good on out door court?
please do a comparison video of the gt cut academy and precision 6.
Been considering between the Ja 1s, Sabrina 1s and the GT Cut Academys. Which one of these performs the best? (I play mostly outdoors)
Academys
Which is better performance? The Ja1 or the GT Cut, academy? Thank you. 🙂
Bro the ja 1 are really ass like for real they ain't that good. On the other hand gt academy giving competition to gt cut 3 is phenomenal for a budget shoe.
So my preference go for gt cut academy it's a clear win

@@JayFlacko GT cut is better, regardless of the price!
@@Hehe-i5v disagreement.
Which is better Sabrina 1 or Nike gt cut academy?
Damn i bouth Ja 1 "Zombie*
and now i was thinking to change , haven't used them but i was thingking of its cushion
It is a great option in my opinion if you also think nike by you is an option for this and can improve aesthetics
wooooohh horayyy my order is on the way! 😅 thank youuuuuu
hello there. i have a question. i have nike renew elevate 3 size 9 and it fits me perfect. should i go tts for the nike gut academy or up half a size? hope you can reply. thank you
in my own opinion, this shoes is on the wider side so you should go tts ,
Which is better the gt cut academy or the freak 2?
yo would you recommened the gt cut academ's or the kyrie 5 lows for outdoor. Big fan of your content.
Should I get these or Sabrina 1s?
Def these! Tried Sabrinas, and the cushion is not nearly as good and the Academy lasts longer!
these or sabrina 1? im a pg
I really like the Sabrina’s comfort, flexibility and traction. It is just an overall good shoe that I think fits all feet. However, the durability can become a little bit of an issue later on but overall great shoe. Haven’t tried the gt cut academy tho
which one better immortality 4 or GT Cut academy for wide foot and outdoor play, and what size i have to use if i have wide foot usually i use 45
Same question
These or the ae 1 lows or the gt cut cross pls help me decide ?
Should have been nice but that two piece outsole made it bad. That heel part would detach not for long starting from the middle due to hard stops.

Why is it so hard to find good regular hi tops.
e yo bro i need help to chose gt cut academy or freak 5
freak 5 fr
@@jasperancheta7473 nah
can you do a review of Adidas Crazy 8s?????
i was sliding too much with this shoe on speed stops.
Got these for 50 today bro what a steal
The traction is just too good. You could hurt yourself if you're not used to it. The shoe is great for players who like to play uptempo, small guards who like to wreak havoc.
These or Ja 1s?
Ja 1 suck. I have used
Ja 1 is better
Better cushion than ja if you care about that, ja’s have more break in time but have more court feel
I got these and they feel really good traction is amazing just gotta wipe once or twice on dusty courts but overall this shoe is really good id definitely recommend these

Can you review li ning yushuai 17 low.
WHAT IF I FORGOT TO WIPE...😂😅
It kinda reminds me of the ja 1
I watched this video cause i just bought gt cut academy and im scared if its a bad shoe
is it good , how is the traction
Go half a size up if u buying

Just watch weartesters, foot doctor zach, and tommy liu better reviewers imo
I think it’s because for some reason Nike shoes have been really snug or something like that
Na going up .5 is correct, every Nike shoe fits tight. Nobody crowned Nike as the standard for sizing, that just what you choose to do.
Lmao who said Nike was the standard they’ve always been to small outside of a few specific lines

Paul George is actually been using this shoe, the cheapest shoe in the league
Just bough the volt colorway waiting for it to arrive
why? what happened to his pg nike shoes? i know the contract ended but cant he still wear them like the pg6?
@ idk, he aint wearing his shoes no more.
day 1000 of asking for the scoot review
Cushion is Renew and Lunarlon in the forefoot (bottom loaded Zoom) per Foot Doctor Zach.
1st

These or Freak 5?
