This makes me appreciate my Kyrie 4s even more. They are super comfortable and the traction with that crazy deep treads run across all directions lasts incredibly long. Served me over a year of very aggressive outdoor hoop. Just copped a new pair of Kybrid 2s, very excited to get them as they have the 4s outsole while also having some new cool elements

Perfect timing thank you for this video !!

I use my kybrid s2's outdoors and they are doing great as well. The sole is not damaged. I've played about 100 hours outdoors with those
Great list. I almost always play outside and I burn through shoes. I have always found Adidas to be the most durable brand for outdoor basketball.

Based on Sammy's and Donny's review (VII) of the KD Trey 5 VIII I copped a red pair and I play a lot of outdoor courts and the traction on these are unreal with very little wear. And the cushion is very similar to the Nike Renew Elevates, comfy. Haven't bottomed out yet either.

Have all the shoes you mentioned, and best shoes to ball outside that will last, and I got for 45 dollars, is the pro 2g high top. Those things are tanks. Would put pg4s 2nd, those are great for outside, kd 13 are great too, but best in doors.
Nice video for people really play games outdoor💪
Keep up the great work! 💯
I’ve been playing outdoor nonstop in the New Balance OMN1S and I love it. Outsole is really durable and cushion is great. I’m going to stock up on that shoe because who knows when we’ll be back playing indoor!

If man wanna talk durability kyrie 6s takes the cake like really. It's the most durable shoe I've had in a long time and even while the sole has become smooth in the forefoot it still has mad bite. Toe drags and everything is completely covered the only issue is the impact protection. The zoom is a little thin so not the best. However it gives excellent court feel and I mean excellent. Its super reactive too so u actually do feel it. I'm pretty heavy but they do do am excellent job in my opinion. Not to mention ankle support. I've never rolled my ankle in them ever.
I tore my calf playing in PG5s outdoors. I don't think the injury was solely caused by my shoes, but I do believe they played a role. Thanks for the vid!
They gotta bring back the D Rose 6's
tysm this video was super helpful
Most important list nowadays. Thanks
Thanks for the list. Sammy could you review the Nike Air Max Impact 2 is a budget shoe from Nike some people are saying it's nice.
Jordan SuperFly MVP Low is good too, been using it for 1 year now, still not dead yet compare to my other previous basketball shoes that I finished the outsole in 4 months
1st minute: "Nike & Jordan shoes are bad, they want us to buy us more", rest of time: "Nike is durable, Jordan is good"

Thanks for the good tips. Very helpful. A quick question, what shoes would you recommend for Rope jumping (use a jumping mat and also outdoor).
i had an adidas clima cool low before. i had it for a long time so due to wear & tear, the whole outsole of 1 of the shoe fell off when i jumped when we were playing ball...ha ha ha...i didn't call for time out...i just stepped out of the court and changed shoes - chucks...ha ha ha...the anta GH 2 looks dope. thanks for the video.
Would love you guys to do a review of the Nike XDR outsoles, do they actually make it a lot more durable?!
@TheMias24

I'd really like to know too, I was highly considering the PG 5s with XDR. There's a lot of good reviews for it but durability on the standard issue seems to be a problem for outdoor use.
I just bought witness 5 for indoor so thanks for advising me not to use it outside
I disagree heavily about React Elevation considering also that I also watched your videos about the excellent rating of UA Anatomix Spawn 3. React Elevation has been great for outdoor , no remarks. Support, everything and materials stay even after extensive use. About Spawn 3 which you recommend, support is really questionable at times. I am let down by them and not sure where the high rating comes. React elevation is a sleeper a big one imo and preferable for outdoor use. In nutshell, I see some inconsistencies in terms of how some of the shoes are rated, would like to see you in action with any of them to actually make a better judgement.
I've found that the best shoes to use outdoors are tennis shoes, like the kind actually made for playing tennis. They're literally meant to be used on concrete, so the durability and court feel is much greater than you'll find on any basketball shoe, except perhaps the Chinese brands using XDR for the outsoles. They're also great for toe drags since that's such a common occurrence in tennis. You should try a pair and see what you think!

I am 13 and as a younger person it still hurt when play when I basket ball on a out door court and my shoes don't have very much cushion. Make sure even if your younger were shoes with cushion when your out doors or your legs will hurt so much. PS: it may just be me but be careful anyway :]
