Whats underneath the adidas Dame 8 Extply basketball shoe? Check them out for yourself with this deep dive on court playtest, review, teardown and durability test. As a foot doctor I look at basketball shoes and basketball shoe technology a bit differently as I focus more on what foot types benefit from these shoes as well as the basketball shoe's functional attributes on the basketball court
Some of the main areas we cover in this basketball shoe shoe playtest, and performance review of the adidas Dame 8 Extply
- The weight, durability, fit and playability
- What are the features of the insole, midsole, and outsole
- adidas basketball shoe technology explained

ZACH!!! I don’t think I’ve seen you do the Puma All-Pro Nitro yet. If you plan on doing it. Can you please do the Clyde’s Closet colorway. We know the Red with Translucent bottom has “Top Teir” traction already. Would love to see the white colorway review. Hopefully this gets to you and always appreciate your reviews over anyone’s. So much information that applies to most. And you’re unbiased. The hooper community appreciates you more than you know. 🍻

@anthonywarry339 10 месяцев назад

Thanks and I love your reviews! Shoe addiction is a real thing apparently….. I’m 42 years old and have made a comeback to competitive basketball. I’m short 5’7”, 68kg, quick and agile (not like 20 years ago but hey) and I bought a pair of Dame 8s, they’re so comfortable, light years above everything I tried in store. On the court though, I found my narrow foot needed something less wide… I also find them a bit dead in the forefoot compared to a Nike with an air unit, I find the spring of the Nikes so much better for quick acceleration and change of direction. I feel a lot lighter and faster in my new Nike Zoom freak 5s. My Fames are now my outdoor and practise shoes. My take on the Dames is this, if you want speed, light footed direction changes go for a Nike..

@joachimmahoudeaux8619 2 месяца назад

I think the midsole construction makes A LOT of sense, instead of those Nike's air zoom units at the forefoot and so on. The thing with less dense foam is obviously better shock absorption, and better control, but having tacky/grippy outsoles combined with a more dense foam at the forefoot is something better to me for both control on light jumps, and heavier response on stronger jumps. The thing with air zoom units is it peaks sooner than a denser foam unit, harder/denser foam will react as much as you want: more force to jump=higher jump, as the "compensated" forefoot units tend to peak, like a limiter (the other way to use a compressor) in music: you won't get as much as you want even with more force given. I think that bounce pro really suits energetic guards, but it won't helps for "lazy" jumpers like the heavy centers or PF/SF, that's why most of them don't use any Adidas . You have to put energy with those, but you get more rewards. Look at Anthony Edwards, Trae Young or James Harden, Adidas is meant for energetic guards who need something that won't peak when you put more force into the forefoot foam. This foam science is massively used by the Chinese National table tennis team: they use a dense/hard foam on forehand and soft foam on backhand. Why ? when you put more energy in the forehand, the ball will travel faster than softer tuned with a crazy amount of bubbles european rubbers. They use much of their body to generate power, starting from the feet (power from the floor concept), with larger strokes on forehand top spins. On the contrary, as the backhand is a much shorter stroke, they need something that will react quicker with less force. Now the thing is: the hard foam on forehand combined with tacky topsheet gives an awesome control, with light touches it's like a brick for receiving serves or short balls, so it all depends on how much you wanna put energy on it. It's more linear then.

@bartekd8448 10 месяцев назад

Got these in the black/blue colorway! More support than the 8's!!! Although i dont like the strap! Thinkin of cutting the strap off these...

@OldManSneakerReview 10 месяцев назад

I fell in love with the Dame 8. I wish they did the ankle collar with the certified. Would make that the ultimate outdoor killer.

@twotex4235 2 месяца назад

Which version should I get for outdoors?

@MadSUPANOVA 10 месяцев назад

I like the aesthetics. Reminds me of John Wall 1 stripes on the sides of shoes. Will have to go to store to try on first to see if it feels plush... looks plush

@mulyadisutejo9211 10 месяцев назад

Yes its not very fast shoe, but the the impact protection is really good. especially when i accidentally landing on forefoot. Ankle feel really safe with this.

@losted6765 3 месяца назад

is the dame 8 extply more durable than the CU3s for outdoors since it has a higher durometer?

@yagzunlu8882 10 месяцев назад

I like these shoes cushion but I need a shoe which is lighter with better traction. Should I get the Lebron 20 or Jordan 38? Also if you have other recommendations for lighter guards I would like to get advice from you.

@Skibidibobobeebop 10 месяцев назад

Wait until the Lebron 21 comes out because the 20 might go on discount

@MadSUPANOVA 10 месяцев назад

Jordan 38 feels good.. and true to size for 2E wide feet.

@bladerunner7324 10 месяцев назад

Could you review the jordan 12 for basketball?

@LeaveReligionDefenseless 10 месяцев назад

Would you get these over the harden 7’s for a heavier player?

@FootDoctorZach 10 месяцев назад

Just personal preference

@mattrottman6650 6 месяцев назад

Do these stretch well? I actually went down half a size due to the length and my normal size felt pretty roomy. Half size down is pretty snug, so wondering if they will stretch out a bit.

@FootDoctorZach 6 месяцев назад

Yeah I wear these to see patients a lot and they have loosened up a lot

@user-ll7rk8mk4q 5 месяцев назад

Pity about the breathability and moisture retention. I have hot sweaty feet... so not good for me.

@allensmith9879 9 месяцев назад

Is it just me or does the higher density foam in the forefoot look darker. I wonder if that was done on purpose or it just happened naturally 🤔

@taylormilton3 10 месяцев назад

Zack I know this has nothing to do with this review; great dame review btw. But while I was watching this the New balance Coco CG1 just popped up on my feed. The all whites look like the best basketball shoe New balance has ever made. I'm partially being sarcastic becuse I loved the two way v3.. I have two pair I even have the Fresh foams.. I have no issues with mine. But I'm just wondering how versatile the Coco CG1s are becuse I feel like I could ball OUT in these the way they look. Thanks

@AtomicPunk820 10 месяцев назад

Love the Reebok content! Wish Reebok would bring back the REAL Hexalite!!!

@joachimmahoudeaux8619 2 месяца назад

Man ! I loved those hexalites, I'm 51 so I had to fortune to wear late 80's, early 90's Reeboks and they were awesome, the best era for that brand. I had the Aztreks, really maximalist shoes but to me on par with the Air Max 90, then as a recreational runner in the army I had the graphlite 1, still with the HXL unit plus the awesome carbon arch shank. My siblings stole them they were too much good hahaha, and one of my sisters who was a pretty decent runner (a very short female skinny body type only 150cm height, just imagine how she could kill everyone in long distances) bought the pump version for splits training on short distances, she loved them cos' she could vary the containment depending on her feelings/sensations during the training. I agree Reebok should definitely get back to those vintage HXL/Graphlite shoes, not only the Classics. There's no boldness anymore in Reebok now, too sold and resold, since Adidas sold them it's a nightmare in Europe to get them shipped, color and size mismatches, lot of logistics issues sadly 😒.
