The Nike G.T. Cut 3 is a basketball shoe designed for players seeking performance during aggressive cuts. It features the innovative ZoomX cushioning foam, which measures a notable soft and responsive composition. However, during our playtest, concerns arose regarding foot containment, which is crucial for effective lateral movements.
With its lightweight design, the shoe facilitates quick movements on the court. Yet, despite the advanced cushioning technology, we found that the overall fit may not adequately support those who require enhanced stability. This aspect may be particularly relevant for players who emphasize agility in their gameplay.
