Hey Doc-- do you think these would be good for someone with Plantar Fasciitis? And if not, do you have any suggestions for which shoes to look into? Thank you!

The most informative and practical review I’ve seen. Actually giving proper detail into why these would suite some and not others which is what I’ve been looking for, was close to buying these but actually as I have a wider foot and can’t sacrifice the comfort I’ll give them a miss (also had no idea about the protruding part on the bottom so really helpful!)

Thanks for the review and tear down! I have put 6-7 hours of play in the AJ 36 and this is by far the bounciest feeling shoes I have ever experienced! And I have been using ZoomAir shoes since the late 1990-ies. The impact absorption is really good in the heel, while the forefoot Zoom bag springs back after loading, giving you the sensation of mini trampoline! As for the fit - shoe runs a bit long and narrow. They felt uncomfortably snug wide wise at the forefoot, while lengthwise I still had 5mm from big toe to shoe end. First putting them on foot I thought that I will have to return the pair and go 1/2 or 1 size up. Fortunately either the materials stretch or insole compactifies(or both), so now I even need a thicker sock. The only issue I have with AJ36 is with heel lockdown - I feel a slight heel movement up-down incidentally. I have no problems with Zoom protruding - shoe doesn't feel wobbly to me and it's like the bulge makes it easier to feel ZoomAir loading and rebounding.

Mine are on the way, found your video while waiting and I'm a 14 very flat narrower feet. Noticed you said go up . 5 size. They don't make 14.5 so I did buy the 15. I'm 45 and still play like a younger athletic guard and need support, ground feel, not a ton of cushion and typically feel shiftier in a low top. Today's Shoes are made so small it seems, I buy performance and style, and I struggle with finding a good fit. Over the last 3 years PG4 and Gianni's Freak2 have been ideal. KDs in a 14 we're so tight and I thought they would be great but nope. Do you think these will work?

This shoe is the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. No pain at all when I play volleyball. I play middle blocker and setter, so I have to pivot,shuffle,jump and run a lot. I sprain my ankle often and have abit of a wide foot, but this shoe keeps me so stable and no chafing of my toes. The traction is pretty good, picks up dust but not too much. And it is so light, I don’t feel any negative weight working against me. As for the bulge of the zoom unit in the forefoot, don’t worry, i did not feel unstable at all. All in all, most comfy shoe ever, light and supportive. Out of 10, I would give a 9/10. Missing 1 is that crazy curry traction:) I’m 1.84m and 70~kg. Just for reference

Thank you a lot. I came across Air jordan 36 on discount and got them. played in them for about 2-3 days and really felt discomfort in some areas. I watched some of the reviews and like everybody was praising them and calling them one of the best BBall shoes out there. The thing is, my feet are wide and have high arc, so stiff materials on the upper really irritated my feet while playing for extended periods, plus that forefoot zoom unit caused huge discomfort over time as stiff upper pushed foot down into it and although traction was absolutely great and shoe felt bouncy af, because of this discomfort in the forefoot, I never felt good support on them and usually you sacrifice support for comfort and in this case this shoes are not comfortable at all. Everything this was explained perfectly in video, thanks a lot once again.

Air Jordan 36 were awesome….for about two months. When new the mesh upper really wrapped the feet very well so much so that it felt the arch were supported very well. Then the good times stopped there, the mesh upper on my pair gave out too much. Feels like the feet were sliding around in the shoes too much no matter how tight the laces were tied. That combined with the protruding zoom unit made it feel unstable.

Doctor Zach. I would be glad if you help me. My son is a 15 year old licensed basketball player. He has been playing basketball since he was 8 years old. We live in Turkey. My son has elastic flat sole problem in his foot. The doctors said it was okay for him to play basketball. When the foot is on the ground, it becomes a flat sole, when it is lifted, it becomes a normal sole. I may not be able to write correctly in English. Until last year, he always wore Jordan. (Jordan 4, jordan 11, jordan sapce jam 8 etc.) His feet and knees were sore after training. I researched last year. Kevin Durent also has flat feet. I bought Kd 14, my son's foot and knee pains are gone. But when viewed from behind, it looks like his foot is a little crooked. I bought it at Kd 15. My son didn't like it very much. My son jordan wants 36 or 37. What would you recommend? Should you buy insoles for flat soles and put them in shoes? His doctor said there is no need for such a thing. Should I get Jordan 36 or 37? What would you recommend? Or should we choose other than these models? Could it be pg or curry ? Since there are no Turkish subtitles in your videos, I have a hard time translating and understanding what you are saying. I would be very happy if you write a detailed answer. Thanks.

From my experience AJ36 runs long, so going size up will only exacerbate this fact.

I have found AJ36 do breaks in, making some room at the forefoot after few hours of play.

Just worn them yesterday for practice, traction was consistent,cushion was great and my knees were feeling fresh after the end of the practice. Heel lockdown though was bad. My heels were moving up n down a bit and caused friction and blisters. I tight them harder and nothing changed. I was dissapointed as heel slippage will not improve with time. Thinking of returning them. Did you have similar experience?

Weird cause I had the opposite experience- the lockdown for me was good and the comfort under bad- it’s probably a mismatch with the shape of your foot vs shoe

@@FootDoctorZach Thank you for your response Zach. Most probbaly the fit of the shoe is not for me. I am 35yo and play competitive bball i usually change 3-5 pairs a year i never had slippage issues with any other shoe, especially mids and highs. Now i got the GT Jumps and they feel nice tts, a little bit snug though. Something else i was surprised with was that i had ordered the 36s earlier in September in the Doncic colorway and the 12 was too tight and the 12.5 was too long. I returned both back to nike webshop. Last week i was at House of Hoops in Rotterdam The Netherlands and i tried the infrared and the 12 was perfect fit, even roomy. I had similar experience with the Why.Not 1s in the past. Webshop too tight and small, off line store perfecr fit. Either sizes are too inconsistent or specific stores het supplied by different factories which still makes Nike and Jordan brand incosistent 😂😂😂

Hey! Wondering if you think this is good shoe for somebody with a flat foot? I often get plantar fascia pain while playing basketball, but not running or anything less dynamic. Also have you heard of MOVE Insoles? Would love a breakdown of them as they are co-founded and invested in by Cp3 and Dame

Ill be reviewing them soon

These are so tight on my feet as I have a wide & thick foot. Hopefully, they’ll stretch a little. Sitting in shoe trees right now.

Would love to see you do your wear down test on a shoe with XDR rubber vs it’s regular counterpart

Good idea - XDR is usually worth a mm

Great review! I’ve been looking at these for a while but I have been scared of the mid foot shank and plastic overlays on the lateral side of the shoe. Did you experience any discomfort in that area?

For me, no problems there but I did feel a slight imbalance in the pressure of the zoom forefoot unit from right to left shoe. Right shoe was a little more raised and less comfortable.

The width and those protrusions broke in better than I thought but it’s still a pretty stiff shoe

Love the basketball stuff

These shoee killed my feet for like 3 weeks and then, thry finally broke in and/or my feet got used to them . The shoes are very narrow. Everyone else i know that got them says the exact same thing

Nice review

Also what would you recommend for flat footed guys with wide feet?

Please tell if you can wear these shoes outside for daily use? Like with jeans

Hey Doc-- do you think these would be good for someone with Plantar Fasciitis? And if not, do you have any suggestions for which shoes to look into? Thank you!!

Great vid Zach, are these a magnet for a rolled ankle? I like the kobe protro not just as the court feel, but I feel the outrigger and shank plate lock my ankles in. Any advice?

These arent the greatest things in the world for an ankle sprainer but not terrible either

I was sold until you said the ankle support not good. Dope review but I mainly wear lows but I need ankle support from the shoe for roll over...

What do u think is the best shoe of the year for outdoor use?
