glad your voice is better doc! and woooh great teardown as always!! the lineup for bball shoes has been insane yet you're insanely dedicated too having to pump us up all these contents to dine upon

Spot on review. I’ve had my Jump 2s for a week and loving the heel support. It really is very forgiving. Only thing you didn’t touch on I think was the ankle collar height. I love that these are more of a mid compared to the 1s.

@@zoesh2441 lateral support is fine. No issues or concerns so far. Last Jordan’s I played in were the 34s and 35s. It’s so hard to ignore the plush heel support in these. Less break in time in my opinion. I played in the Nike Zoom BB NXT which had a similar react/zoom set up and felt those were higher rides and more distracting. I think the Jump2s have got the height and set up right. Especially with the jump plate!

tried it last game and I love them. Having light knee injury and sore heels after every game, this shoes helps me a lot. the bounce is softer on my knees and ankles. definitely a good buy. Considering I got them at a sale price. 😄😃😅🥰

G.T. Jump makes my feet soreness after playing, maybe cause of too much Zoom & the Pebax Jumpframe is stiff, this 2nd version is more forgiving it seems P.S. maybe this is also the reason why the KD16 changed from Full-length Zoom Strobel to Forefoot Zoom + Air Strobel like Zion 2, the Zoom unit is causing foot pain & soreness

250 lbs guy here. Got mine and put game day insoles. Now the forefoot and heel are on the same height.

Awesome review as always doc! Loved the Jump 1s enough to get a second pair even after the heel air popped on my first, but I did always feel that the heel air units weren't as necessary since most people jump off the balls of their feet. And I really like the react foam for my other shoes so I'm definitely giving these a try.

Dr Zach are this more bouncier than the lebron 20? And are they good for volleyball?

Doc would you consider maybe putting the ratings and scores in a table to compare different models with similar features (ie gt jump 1 vs gt jump 2) as part of the video? would be cool to see the ball bounce height numbers side by side with stuff like jordans and lebrons that have different cushion set ups

did anyone else wonder what the GT stood for in the name of the shoe????....found out it stands for "Greater Than"....nothing revolutionary but I had to know

I just ordered the gtj2 electric can't wait to try em on!!

I have always wanted a shoe with the best court feel. I had a heel strike about a year ago in some KDs that destroyed my heel and caused nasty plantar fasciitis. I switched to the GT jump with an orthotic in it and my goodness what a difference. I am excited to hear this is even better for the heel.

do not get this shoe if you like court feel. impact protection and cushion got a huge upgrade, but court feel got a pretty big downgrade. it feels like you’re about an inch or two off the ground (don’t get me wrong, good shoe but not a good shoe for court feel by any means).

FINALLY. The GT Jump 2 Review from Zach. You confirmed everything I suspected on the performance of the shoe. So torn on getting these. I like the tech, especially since I'm more on the husky side, but I do sprain my ankle quite often, so that's a bummer.

I've been playing in the KD5X's for so long, been looking at all the new options and this may just be my purchase. Playing as a PG I need that heel cushion & forefoot stability. Was thinking about getting the Tatum 2's but these seem better in every way.

How do these compare to the GT Hustle 3? Which do you prefer? Which do you think is better? Good reviews!

I'm a bit worried about the heel sitting lower than the forefoot due to the soft React foam.

Thank for a detailed review, Dr. Zach 🤩🏀 I've been using G.T.Jump 1 for a year and really admire their combination of precision and cushion. They felt like a scalpel comparing to a knife of LeBron 17, which used before. In my mind, zoom-units allowed Jump 1 to be much lower to the ground comparing to Jump 2, which feels like an unfortunate move for the new model. Having said that, I got another colorway of Jump 1 to enjoy the time till Jump 3 😉

Hi Zach, thanks for the quality content as always. I've had the GT jump 1 for over a month now as I got them for 50% off. I love zoom air overload of 1's but somehow wish I had waited for the GT jump 2. Reason being, I prefer the fabric weave upper of the 2's compared to the hard plastics of the 1's. Secondly, I'm only 5'10 but wear a size 13 US. Being a high top, hard plastics of the 1's really restrict any shifty movements.

The react foam is like walking on clouds and front those zoom units I started walking down a quite mild hill and it was sort of helping me bound down hill and I didn't intend that but it happened and by half way down hill I was in a full stride without hardly any effort at all but G.T. 1 was perfect with that jump frame was better and I did think G.T.2 was going to anywhere as good as GT1 but they did it but more GT2 had more impact absorbsion. So that's what I felt and experienced

Hey doc, I went out and bought these after checking out your review, 10 minutes into playing, I went for a cross over and my knee buckled… not exactly sure why, but I’m 5’10 210 pounds, muscular build…. Appears to be an mcl sprain Prior to playing in these, I’ve been playing in the KD trey 5’s for the past year… zero issues playing in those I just bought the LeBron 21s, I know you mentioned you’re on the heavier side and I think my build is similar to yours, what do you play in? I like to drive in and I play the small/power forward position a lot… can’t seem to find a video on what shoes you play in! Thanks doc!!

Is it possible that leg cramps could be correlated to these shoes? I've had many after the first half of my training sessions since I wear these. Thanks!

I ordered these yesterday, and glad to see this video!! Looks like my knees, age and weight (42 y/o, 6'3", 220ish) will be happy with this :D (even though I'll also want a pair of Sabrina Ionescu's once more colorways come...)

Played in these again tonight. So comfortable from the second you put them on

I love the GT Jumps! Huge fan of the 1st model, you can absolutely feel the transfer of energy when jumping and testing out your max vert. May i ask? Does the presence of a jump frame mean this shoe has unlocked zoom? Thanks

as a very shifty player...I felt the GT1s were very impressive. side to side lateral movement was still there. Im hoping I can get that from the GT2s. the only issue with the GT1s was the heel bubble popping for me on 2 pairs. Waiting for some better color ways

Not that I imagine it would change much, but could you incorporate measuring your own vertical in each video with the shoes?

@footdoctorzach - what is a good shoe for old guys with bad knees ? i did sprain my ankles back in the day (20 years ago) but not playing serious anymore- into coaching and want something comfy for the court

These are great at the gym. So comfortable when I work out.

Hopefully the hustle is geared towards shifty forwards. If not I’ll just wait til the Zion 3 come out. P.S may I recommend doing the adidas bounce legends for your next budget shoe review?

Doc great review and was considering this show until you said not good for chronic ankle sprainers. What b-ball shoe do you recommend for weak ankles?

Just hope these aren’t as narrow as the 1s,, the only reason I didn’t the 1s cuz they were just too narrow 😢😢

I'm someone who focuses on rebounds and defense, how do you think these will do for someone whos always guarding the 2 or 3?

Hey Doc, would being a toe walker have any bearing on what basketball shoe you'd buy?

at 4:49, you say the GT2 is better for bounce, but i'm assuming for impact protection it should still be pretty good - especially for back pain of a 40yr bballer who isn't too heavy or too shifty?

I think you should take a look at your ratings. To me, besides traction and cushion (shock/bounce), stability is the most important. This shoe rates a 4.5 but if it’s not good for ankle sprainers then how supportive can it be?! Stability to me is about how willing the shoe is to let my foot roll over while playing. Maybe add a category or combine stability with support?

@FootDoctorZach

Shoes like these for heavy streetballing seem like a waste of money sadly....They feel good for a week or two, but from experience are for the trash after a month. Wondering what you think of the Adidas streetball 3. They're heavily discounted atm and for someone that streetballs 5/6 days a week seem like the perfect outdoor shoe. The outsole rubber seems durable, but not sure about the quality of the rest of the shoe.

Which one is more bouncy/springy, the 1s or 2s?

Hi @footdoctorzach I just bought the GT Jump 2 based on your (and others) reviews. I am wearing orthopedic insoles, so usually I remove the standard insole of a shoe and put mine in. With the GT Jump 2, I find it a little bit difficult to wear without the original insole below my own insoles, as I feel the uneven surface inside the shoe even through my own insoles. But with both the original insole and my orthopedic ones, the shoes feel too tight on the upper side of my foot. What would you recommend? Going up in size? I fear that the shoe might get too big, especially too long, as right now it fits perfectly aside from my insole problem. Or is there any other way to lets say compensate for the uneven surface without the insole? Thanks for your help!

Can i use these outdoor for walking etc? without them breaking or start leaking air?

Hi Zach. I hope you will review new Kyrie from Anta soon. Love your reviews. They are the best around. Thanks.
