Jordan Tatum 1: All Eyes on the Bottom
#jordan #jaysontatum #sneakers
In this video we go over the Jordan Tatum 1 “St. Louis” - what I think is the best looking colorway / model this year, on Jayson Tatum’s first ever signature shoe with Jordan brand.
Performance wise, this is an extremely lightweight hoop shoe. Cushioning and comfort level are up there and above my expectations. Forefoot Zoom feels responsive, a subtle amount of heel compression and no issues such as the upper materials pinching against your toes. Traction is decent, the translucent part grips better than the foam itself at the bottom half, but should be adequate in general. Dust pick up is a little annoying, wiping is needed frequently and for durability concerns I would NOT recommend using these for outdoors. They are a standard true to size fit.

Thoughts on the Tatum 1? 🟢 Weight, Comfort 🔴 Durability, Traction on Dust Thank you for watching!
I got these; same colorway as you. I'm not a basketball player, more of a shoot around type, but being a Big Celtics and Tatum fan these were a must. I was pleasantly pleased when I got them in hand and couldn't agree with your review any more. Great job!!!

My favorite shoe of 2023 so far. I feel the Zoom more the more I play in them. I'm around 245 lbs and containment is great. Traction has not failed me yet. Gonna also get those Pink Lemonades. 👍🏼

I like Jayson Tatum a lot and I actually thought about getting these since my Jordan one take 3 really starts to wear down. My biggest problem is that this shoe is made for playing on the forefoot and I’m not someone who only plays on their forefoot. The weight is the thing that really impressed me but I also expected more of a narrow fit which I need as a smaller and skinny person. But I’ll wait until the review of the Ja 1 comes out to see which one is better. Maybe I’ll just wait until all of the new signature shoes come out to see if there’s anything for me.
Hey there again tommy! Much love from the philippines. Always love your quick, on point no BS reviews. Just got ahold of these in the zoo colorway! I'm usually US 12.5 (harden vol 6) to US 13 (KD 15, lebron 19). Tried on a friend's st. louis and his was US 11, and it was a snug fit, so im around size 12 I assumed. But i could only get ahold of a US 13 zoo colorway, so it was too loose, but i added another insole on top of it and so far it fits great! I'll update how it feels once I get to play in em!

Hey thanks! Traction is decent, not crazy good but it gets the job done. For indoors only they should be okay, like so far my pair has some tiny scratches off the foam but no significant damage yet. It’s a very very good shoe in my opinion but again durability is a concern indeed, so that’s the downside.

It's weird to see that some brands can't produce a consistent rubber sole to prevent slipping on dustier courts. Li Ning and WoW are really far ahead of Jordan/Nike/Adidas nowadays when it comes to rubber compounds and all around traction. Time to copy from the Chinese I'd say.
@TommyLiu4
Жыл бұрын
Oh yeah in terms of the type of rubber compound used, for better traction + durability, brands do need to take notes from Way of Wade 😂 They consistently deliver some of the best outsoles out there.
Just got the gt cut 2 in tts and my toes touch the end of the shoe relatively easy and the sides of the shoe on things like hard jab steps really easily. I went a half size up before and had the same problem with the lateral stopping and a bunch of heel slip. Will the lockdown and movement of my foot in the shoe get better as I break in the shoe? Cuz its pretty bad rn and honestly id rather wear my broken in kd 14s

They will break in better over time, but the KD 14 is for sure a better shoe overall than the GT Cut 2 to me as well.

In my opinion the traction on the tatum1 was absolutely trash. I was considering luca1, kyrie low5, and ja1. I would have got the ja1 but it wasnt released at that time. So i wouldn't recommend this shoe if you care on traction.
