True weartesting right here. Continuing to play in the shoes even when you don’t like them. You a trooper for this.

Please put a full rubber outsole on your shoes... We're sick of this...

Nike/Jordan have been marketing what are actually cost cutting measures as "performance features" for at least a decade now.

I love the " I was hoping it would get better, it did. Do you have an explanation? I do not" lol your transparency

You're a trooper for testing these all the way through lol

Jackson coming in hot with the truth bombs haha. Appreciate you pushing through, especially since this did not seem like a very enjoyable experience in these. Upon first glance, I thought that those neon pieces were all foam. As soon as you said that medial piece was rubber, I already started to draw my conclusions. It just amazes me that Tatum can get loose and drop 30-40 on the regular in something clunky like these.

I was waiting for the wear tester review.I seen some color way concepts that look really dope.The black and red joints the USA Olympic color way

Straight to the point, I love it!

Great, necessary and well done weartest video. All I could think all through the video was "once discounted, these could have been a great outdoor option if they made proper outsoles like they used to". I live where basketball is predominantly played outdoors and shudder to think what options kids who like/love Nike/Jordan nowadays have, if they have any at all. Hopefully they're subscribed to Weartesters and are exposed to the bangers the Chinese brands have for outside options.

I love Jackson's Mighty Ducks cap!! Brings back a lot of happy memories of when the NHL team was first created as well as the movies ❤❤

I love the looks. I think I’ll end up grabbing a pair just because but imma wait till they go on sale. Sucks bc I’ve heard so many negative things about them

thank you for the performance review, appreciate you for pushing it through too

Love the way these look but I have wide feet and I already know I would hate them and never wear them bc of how uncomfortable they’d be. Thanks for your honesty

Good review. 👌🏽 Had the same thoughts that the shoe will be stiff because of those pods on the side.

I appreciate the honesty

I appreciate the work you put in on this review. Side note: @weartesters whatever happened to Jaleel (I think that was his name)?

Appreciate the work and honesty

interesting design choices.... wonder what they were thinking with the solid pods

So Chris, see some shots of you in these Awful JT 2's. What's your performance review of these in the short time playing in them ? As Jackson states this model is really Meh... Great content as usual !!!

Yup i had the same one in the video but end up returning it, too stiff and too narrow i have the same issues what he mentioned, tatum 1 is better than tatum 2 in my opinion

Thanks for truth. Do u have any recommendations for a basketball shoe for wide feet.

The only way I would take these shoes is if I could have 2 pair. One pair to crap on and one pair to cover the pile with. Honestly I'd rather play a tourney in a pair of Reebok Questions than most of the "new/innovative tech" shoes that have came out in the last 5 years. I have 5 pairs that I rotate for hoopin'. Reebok Question Mid, 2 Pair of Jordan 35's, Jordan 11s, and Jordan Maxin 200 The Jordan 11 Concorde and the 2 Jordan 35s are for indoor play ONLY because I don't wanna shred those 11s and the 35s tread is so shallow, the tongue-scraper on the back of my toothbrush has more tread, and outdoor wear will eat them alive. I play in the Maxin 200's and the Question mids for outdoor because they are sturdy, light, and the materials aren't bad. .... And I wouldn't trade any of them for these Tatums. Just sayin'.

For some reason I'm getting the feeling that Jackson has a minor gripe with one aspect of the shoe, cant put my finger on it....

I've been using the Giannis immortality 2s for my outside shoe its fantastic, way less than this shoe, probably has the same foam configuration to

Played in the Tatum 2’s for a total of 1 game and promptly returned them. The traction was terrible for mine and stiffness was not a fan either 😅

I’ll just grab the Easter color way for walking around theme parks 😄

How you pick up this pattern? The JT 2 has that going for it.

Shame. I feel like Tatum is 0 for 2 on his shoes. Could be me, but it seems like ever since Zion and Grant Williams blew out their shoes in game, all shoe manufacturers are adding excess material in that area. Look at the New Hardens and the AE, same concept I believe.

Another easy pass from Jordan brand. Don't know why they do their signature players like this

The Tatum 2 is very similar to the Tatum 1 gs…👀

What brand of white socks are those?

Currently playing in the Stewie 2 'Earth' but pretty disappointed by the traction and durability of the outsole (indoor only, pretty clean court). Two of my all-time favorite shoes to hoop in are the Nike Hyperdunk 2011 Low and the Anta KT3 Low. Anything on the market today that will provide a similar experience? Thank you so much for any advice given. @weartesters

Dang I wanted to get the Stewie 2 but they’d def not last long for outdoor use😭 but perhaps I’ll just get it just for street wear

i like Tatum as a player and Celtics fan, but his shoes idk man

This could have been the Zion 3, I think an intern at Jordan HQ messed up some files LOL

I think they engineered it to avoid injury. since jt1 has history of injury 😅

I’ve heard stories on Jt 1 injuries

These looked like the most 5/10 shoe when they announced it. The Tatum 1 was interesting but also a let down because of the foam heel but this is just so meh

Aesthetics are pretty terrible too in my opinion

They look like a children's version of an adult shoe. Like it's missing elements or something. Either way they're not very appealing, The side looks like an outsole stuck on the side lol.

Ugliest shoe I’ve ever seen ✅ Worst performer based on reviews ✅ Between these and Zions, new Jordan models are absolutely 🗑️ they’re not even trying anymore

On the flip side, the Luka 2s are great in my opinion. Bought a pair on sale recently, and I absolutely love them. But I completely agree about the JT's. Both models are just awful.

Are these low or high tops?

Is say slightly mid I have 2 pairs

Yeeeeah these are lifestyle bruh 🤣🤣🤣…strictly for looks lol.

Why are they doing their new athletes so dirty?? Do they not want them to stick around?! Tatum, Giannis, why do they not get something good like a Lebron or KD?

These shoes probably ruined tatum's shot lol the pods like you said make them look so stiff.

Fight the power

"I'm not sure who I'd recommend these to" - whelp, that's all you need to know

I miss Chris aka Nightwing2303

Yeah... I tried them on in store and passed on them.

It literally looks like a fake Jordan shoe. 😂

First

Also just not a good looking shoe

I feel like, the Tatum 1 and 2 look so good, too bad they don't perform well. What a shame.

I hate Tatum cuz hes a Ltic but his shoes look kinda dope

It’s not for you anyway
