Jordan brand has some real underrated models- that large forefoot unit reminds me of the Westbrook 0.2, nice and chunky. Will be interesting to see how these perform- the three Zion shoes are all drastically different- these look more like a guard shoe, the previous models were heftier in stature. The J38 this year hasn’t been that appealing, I’m still loving my J36s- but it looks like the Zion 3 just jumped to the top of the list
I rmb kuzma rolled ankle in LAKERS PLAYING THE kobe 4s protro, I think it was major impact for the outrigger of the midfoot on the zion 3! Thats a part of engineering that helps to secure extreme deceleration side foot planting!
Just picked these up from foot locker yesterday before a hoop sesh. They were a little tight at first, but after a few games they felt great. If you don’t know what to hoop in. These are def a solid choice. 👌🏻
These joints look mad techy but sleek at the same time🔥🔥🔥. Zion 2’s are bangers also. My barefoot has its own mid foot outrigger and it even piles on extra skin for me to friction off - if I was walking barefoot it’s weird but true.
I think that's a great trade-off on the zoom unit size, still covers a lot of area and I think volume is more important when it comes to the use of Zoom Air.
I love the Zion 1. Was hoping for the same cushioning from the 2 because I love the look but no. And I'm still not sure about the 3 but I'll give them a go, eventually, when I see a colorway I just have to have. 😜
Definitely want to get a pair, love the design, surprisingly don't look like shoes made for Zion....lol you'd think they make a shoe more 3 quarters, sturdier for him...but ok. Shoes look fire. Dude always got on cool shoes
Have a narrow foot and these are the most narrow shoes I’ve ever worn. Traction was really good but a lot of dust pickup as the rubber compound they used is very sticky out the box. I really like them so far but if ur a wide footer I would stay away. Maybe a shoe stretcher could help but idk the upper materials are pretty damn stiff.
I feel like the Zion and Luka line has been mixed up...The Luka 2 looks a lot like the Zion 2, where this one (Zion 3) looks like the next model to the Luka 1, even the outsole reminds me of the Luka 1. Very minimal shoe for a big guy like Zion.
I believe there’s a progression of the line with his path on the league the ones we’re slick and light but that could hold him then we get the twos bulky just like his weight gain with good cushion for his knees now we got the ones again but like 2023 tech and higher cost version if he gets a 4th dig it should be like the 2nd just less weight
Curious about your critique, I agree when you say some lines seem to be too different when new models release, but isnt that what the Jordans have always been like? And why does the Curry shoe have “bad juju?”
Returned mine. Super narrow shoe so theyre very unfriendly (painful!!!) for wife feet. My experience with traction was horrible, though i hoop on a dusty court. My friend had a different experience with traction on a slightly better court, so i guess it varies. Imo theres no court feel, i feel super high off the ground and the shoes feel a bit clunky around the heel. Looks are 10/10 though and i hope they make these available in a wide fitment soon but for now, theyre going back to nike
I thought exactly what you thought that these look like Kobes and with it looking so alike these should provide as such. And honestly I’d treat these as Team Jordans instead of signatures because these don’t look like something that would survive Zion.
I got mine. Usually between a 10.5-11 for nike hoop shoes. Got 11 to be safe and theyre painfully tight on my feet. Lengthwise theyre about right, tiny bit big but theyre so narrow. Traction also was horrible, though i hoop on a very dusty court. My friend said he was fine though on a slightly better court.
OmG 😳. These are honestly so dope to look at and to have. But omg. These are crazy weird shoes 👟. I feel like I am wearing a tap dance shoe. I have no idea what kind of bball player can rock these on the court. Such a cool 😎 looking shoe, but another Jordan hoop shoe 👟 I put on the shelf for only walking. Maybe to the dance club 😜
Please do make a review for precision 6... i really want to buy a nike precision 6 with the yellow white pink I think it's a cotton candy colorway...i need your ❤ opinion about it 🙏
I’ve been waiting for the review prior to buying one, but bought it first and kinda disappointed with the fits, super narrow, to the extend it hurts my pinky toe! I was expecting to feel like Kobe line or at least wow 8v3 and all city 11. By far the way of wade is much better. Nike really needs to step up their game.
Nike associate here. The overlay on the upper is based off of mud and what Zion says with "coming out of the mud". Just a fun fact for anyone interested in it and trying to understand its purpose. Also what we taught is supposed to provide Zion and the player more lockdown in the shoe.
The story about mud has zero to do with performance. The material is there to add durability to build as you’d rip through the textile with your laces if the TPU wasn’t there. Nike’s marketing for its own products has gone way downhill.
"Coverage" was the word for the zoom unit. Been watching you since kicks on court. If I have any questions about fit, I report to you. Lol even my wife knows. Nightwing knows...
These would have been better off being the Luka 2’s, looks like a guard shoe. While the Luka 2’s should have been the Zion 3’s because of how bulky it looks like.
Tried these on yesterday and the drop ins outer lip is thicker than any Kobe midsole, which is why you have the wide footers heated about fit, it’s not a good or bad thing, just that it takes up more room inside the shoe, I’d recommend going up a half size, the heel counter is robust and you won’t get any slipping I don’t think.
Kobe-likes coming back is something i'm 100% here for. Between these and the wade 808 3s, hopefully more kobe-likes release in the near future.
I can't lie...WOW are some of the best ball sneakers I've ever had.... The traction is amazing... About to get the 808 3s
“Jordan Kobe’s”🧏🏾♂️🎯
Just got these bad boys this afternoon. True to size for me. These are crazy. Feels like a kobe release. Brings back some memories..
Dope shoe. Let's hope that Zion can showcase it a lot more this season.
Definitely look interesting I like the drop in midsole set up! Thanks as always for the awesome review!
I’ve never been a Zion shoe fan but I really like these. The color is clean and I love a good drop-in midsole!
i love the sense of humor on your vids bro, keep up the good work!!!

Waiting for my pair to get in! Great breakdown as always 🙌🏻

Great review as usual!

Curious to try and play in the shoe.
Awesome review as always. 👌🏽
This colorway is 🔥 and I’m excited to test them
Haven’t wore a basketball shoe since Lebron 9 , Kobe 6/7s , & KD 4s but I was definitely eyeing these too and may pull the plug 🔥🔥
These look amazing, I absolutely love them
Love this Kobe-ization of basketball shoes. Feels like an homage.
These joints look mad techy but sleek at the same time🔥🔥🔥. Zion 2’s are bangers also. My barefoot has its own mid foot outrigger and it even piles on extra skin for me to friction off - if I was walking barefoot it’s weird but true.
They look really nice. I’ll like to see a version that uses the reflective mesh like the Jordan 13 on the upper. It would be a nice.
I think that's a great trade-off on the zoom unit size, still covers a lot of area and I think volume is more important when it comes to the use of Zoom Air.
They should have been giving him the old thick lebron zoom pad bags, and the old Michael Vick caged zoom style volume units.
Haircut lookin good dude. Review those 12s coming out brotha
I love the Zion 1. Was hoping for the same cushioning from the 2 because I love the look but no. And I'm still not sure about the 3 but I'll give them a go, eventually, when I see a colorway I just have to have. 😜
Getting my pair next week definitely 🥰😍😘🥰😍😘
I wanna see him play, before seeing new signature shoes, a bummer for NOP fans that he missed a lot of times
Those are 🔥 all the colorways I've seen so far I like especially the all pink pair they should of dropped those this month
Definently looking forward to futuore colorways like the white cement and all pink pair.
I'm Early ? Damn its nice to see Jordan or Nike's are going back to low shoes.
loved the Zion 1 in fit, cushion and mines glow!, hated 2 and will try 3 :)
Definitely want to get a pair, love the design, surprisingly don't look like shoes made for Zion....lol you'd think they make a shoe more 3 quarters, sturdier for him...but ok. Shoes look fire.
Dude always got on cool shoes
Tried these on a few days ago, it's literally feels and looks like a Kobe 11, Zion got a hit with these, just waiting on better colorways to drop
8:06 Zion needs it dearly, especially if you remember him wearing the PG's
Shock the world “and i think most of his fans are still waiting for that” 💀💀💀
I scooped em, I love em
Interesting how it's more Kobe like but with massive amount of support via the plastic wrap and shank.
Have a narrow foot and these are the most narrow shoes I’ve ever worn. Traction was really good but a lot of dust pickup as the rubber compound they used is very sticky out the box. I really like them so far but if ur a wide footer I would stay away. Maybe a shoe stretcher could help but idk the upper materials are pretty damn stiff.
bad for flat footed?
These shoes look good and the tech looks like it will work well
The shoe does take a bit to break in due to the material.
The forefront is cushion is light and very low to the ground.
Definitely right about Jordan Kobe’s
Chick-fil-A & Jordan Brand need to do a promo with this shoe. IJS! Referring too that black and white colorway of course.
I feel like the Zion and Luka line has been mixed up...The Luka 2 looks a lot like the Zion 2, where this one (Zion 3) looks like the next model to the Luka 1, even the outsole reminds me of the Luka 1. Very minimal shoe for a big guy like Zion.
Man I was playing in my metcons a few times and it's a good shoe
I believe there’s a progression of the line with his path on the league the ones we’re slick and light but that could hold him then we get the twos bulky just like his weight gain with good cushion for his knees now we got the ones again but like 2023 tech and higher cost version if he gets a 4th dig it should be like the 2nd just less weight
They look fire ngl
I still have my LeBron 11's with full length Zoom drop-in in great shape, do you think they would fir in these? 🤔
Exactly what I thought when I first saw them Jordan Kobe
Curious about your critique, I agree when you say some lines seem to be too different when new models release, but isnt that what the Jordans have always been like? And why does the Curry shoe have “bad juju?”
Uff, these look great!
That Cable and Logan Tee thou 🔥 where do you buy those?
Returned mine. Super narrow shoe so theyre very unfriendly (painful!!!) for wife feet. My experience with traction was horrible, though i hoop on a dusty court. My friend had a different experience with traction on a slightly better court, so i guess it varies. Imo theres no court feel, i feel super high off the ground and the shoes feel a bit clunky around the heel. Looks are 10/10 though and i hope they make these available in a wide fitment soon but for now, theyre going back to nike
CAM'RON pause alert @ around 7:14 ......im over here rollin lol
I thought exactly what you thought that these look like Kobes and with it looking so alike these should provide as such. And honestly I’d treat these as Team Jordans instead of signatures because these don’t look like something that would survive Zion.
Definitely waiting on the performance review on these. I'll try them on for myself but hearing that they're a snug kinda sucks for my wide feet. 😩

Will the drop-in insoles end up squeaking like in some of Nike Metcons?
The forefoot zoom looks like about 10mm instead of the 8mm usual.
Can’t wait for the discounts 😀
When do they come in?
At Nike Outlets in AZ for $60 right now.
OmG 😳. These are honestly so dope to look at and to have. But omg. These are crazy weird shoes 👟. I feel like I am wearing a tap dance shoe. I have no idea what kind of bball player can rock these on the court. Such a cool 😎 looking shoe, but another Jordan hoop shoe 👟 I put on the shelf for only walking. Maybe to the dance club 😜
The toebox reminds me the Nike Zoom Hyperflight.
Please do make a review for precision 6... i really want to buy a nike precision 6 with the yellow white pink I think it's a cotton candy colorway...i need your ❤ opinion about it 🙏
Kobe 4s favorite balln sneaker .. miss my olympique color ways
Beautiful
so the Zion's foot is changing with every shoe? is he still growing?
Definitely Jordan brand Kobe’s, wide footer should go a half size up cause the forefoot is narrow
played in em they are sticky really does pick up dust and they feel better than my kyrie 5 lows imho
how do i clean the uppers tho
Does the insole fit in kobes? Like kobe 8/9/11??
2:36 good one 😂
I like these but way of Wade is killing it so I’m usually using those. Are you gonna review the new social status max attack “split vision”?
Probably not. Not a fan of the way those turned out.
Waiting on your cherry 12 review
Damn. Those are lowkey 🔥
“It should say: fingers crossed” 😂😂😂
What about the Puma All-Pro Nitro??? I thought they were the best performance basketball of all time for you
The Fruit Roll Up's...👍🏽 Good name for em
These are definitely the most compelling zions
I was disappointed in both the 1's and the 2's, Hoping that the 3's are finally a shoe that's worth the price, and is nice to play in.
Man the traction wasn’t the best first time out hope it gets better
Now just wondering if the kobe ad nxt360 drop in would fit in these and vice versa if anyone knows. Or if this fits with the kobe 9/11 drop in?
Now that is a sneaker I like. They look like space shoes. Unfortunately I'm a widy
nice one :)
Do the two way V4 please
got one yesterday but it was really tight and im bot even a wodefooter
I’ve been waiting for the review prior to buying one, but bought it first and kinda disappointed with the fits, super narrow, to the extend it hurts my pinky toe!

It's a shame as a widefooter I was excited for these sneakers but the narrowness is a real bummer
these look like it will perform well. but if we don't see zion playing basketball, then i don't think this would sell a lot.
"Coverage" was the word for the zoom unit. Been watching you since kicks on court. If I have any questions about fit, I report to you. Lol even my wife knows. Nightwing knows...
🔥 vid. When will the performance review drop?
In a few weeks so they can be properly tested.
@@WearTesters Ok thanks a lot 💯
Wow my Driam shoe's ❤️
I wear 10.5 so do I go tru to size or up half a size?
Looks promising
I really find the lack of consistency annoying for the entire Zion line. I loved the 2s but I’m not even 3s bc they look mehh (to me)
Will the drop in fit in a kobe?
These would have been better off being the Luka 2’s, looks like a guard shoe. While the Luka 2’s should have been the Zion 3’s because of how bulky it looks like.
Reminds me of kobe 11 ang kobe nxt
Lololololol oh good lord “fingers crossed”. 😄
The window looks very WOW 808'ish.... Nike is paying attention...
Why they couldnt add a heel zoom air come on jordan brand
Remember when Zions foot broke through the PGs back in college. I feel like he’s going to break through these ones like paper lol.
do you have eyes in your head? these arent Jordan 37s look at the material bozo
He’ll have special versions guaranteed
Anybody else just see spider-man 2099 type of look in the drop in midsole. Shoes seem promising.
Way too narrow for my foot! I had to change into my Sabrina 1s.
Do the drop ins fit in the Kobe 8’s?
Tried these on yesterday and the drop ins outer lip is thicker than any Kobe midsole, which is why you have the wide footers heated about fit, it’s not a good or bad thing, just that it takes up more room inside the shoe, I’d recommend going up a half size, the heel counter is robust and you won’t get any slipping I don’t think.
Aesthetically speaking only the 2s look much much better. It might be due to the jade colourway that destroys the whole silhouette.
