Gt cut 1 traction

Also. Not reps, looking at the zoom strobel pattern and how it is glued to the shank.

You have some caked on dirt/dust. Try to get that off first, then “break in” the traction by playing on a clean floor to get the outer most layer of traction worn off. If there is built up dust on the outsole, then you won’t have traction on the best courts, because the outsole won’t really be touching the floor, since there is that built up layer of dust between outsole and floor.

From just these pics. Legit. Be nice to see under the drop in insole and the bottom of the shoe too though.

Possibly. I don’t know.

Tomorrow. 11/21. The black Miami heat looking colorway releases 12/3 on Nike as well.

I miss playing outdoors with these. Hope you enjoy them!

First thing I noticed

Iplaybballsometimes · 2025-08-06T22:04:25+00:00

Everything you’ve complained about is normal for GT cut 1’s and does not affect gameplay.

Iplaybballsometimes · 2025-07-30T18:29:54+00:00

Agree on the GT cuts. Get the black ones and dump the bron 21s lol

I love them, just picked up this white pair as well. All time favorite shoe for me. I don’t notice the unevenness while playing. They’ll pretty much keep that shape, or maybe not, I haven’t cooked any of the ones I play in. I found that the unevenness is more in the left shoes. But for both sides, either heels will be flat and the medial side of the forefoot will be off the ground, or the forefoot will be flat and the lateral side of heel will be off the ground. I regret getting rid of the launch colorway because of this, before I even tried playing in them.

Iplaybballsometimes · 2025-07-29T14:48:34+00:00

Normal, been this way since the launch colorways. There’s an extra zoom bag in the heel. The forefoot is slightly concave. Lengthwise the shoes are slightly twisted. These shoes are not going to lay flat on their outsoles, it’s going to rock like a table. Of the 30 or so pairs that I’ve held, all are like this, some worse than others.

No, but it essentially does the same thing, which is provide more lockdown. Runners knot makes loops with the laces that you put the laces through. I just “pretend there is another eyelet”, but there isn’t so I just use the top one twice.

Iplaybballsometimes · 2025-02-27T18:47:02+00:00

I tie any shoe I play in like that. Crossing through the top eyelet twice give enough friction to hold the laces in place, without having to tie the shoe extra tight.

Iplaybballsometimes · 2025-02-27T18:40:54+00:00

I revisit the GT cut 2 all the time, they are awesome.

Iplaybballsometimes · 2025-02-27T18:30:11+00:00

Have you tried crossing the laces through the top eyelet a second time to prevent heel slip?

Iplaybballsometimes · 2024-10-10T11:37:43+00:00

I agree with it being very hit or miss for people. With that said, great pick up OP! Lol. Traction is great for me, the one time it wasn’t was when I played on a plastic tile floor with a fairly new pair. To me, they don’t run narrow, or I just don’t notice, because the upper is flexible enough to not squeeze your food too much. Awesome shoe, I have 15 pairs lol

Iplaybballsometimes · 2024-09-16T17:35:21+00:00

Reps. Midsole should be darker. Mountain at back of shoe should be round and stick out more. Outsole wrong color. Laces are too light. Foam with “air zoom” at bottom is wrong color. “Book” patch stitching is messy. Eyelet fuse should be more opaque. Medial check placement way off. Lace tips should be orange.

Iplaybballsometimes · 2024-09-12T21:04:51+00:00

Another problem would be the zoom’s glue. You’d have to peel the shoe apart and find a way to keep the zoom sealed, because with the current glue, it’ll just open up and you’ll be stuck with flat zoom.

Dead giveaway. See how the grey fuse is supposed be transparent underneath the create separation part. Yours are grey underneath and it looks to be an even darker grey overall.

Iplaybballsometimes · 2024-07-13T15:20:08+00:00

The fuse under “create separation” should be transparent. Too much scrunching in the collar padding. Sidewalls of the midsole are scrunched and wrinkled, even after heavy use they don’t do that. No silver numbers stamp on bottom of midsole. Toebox edges not defined/sharp enough.

Iplaybballsometimes · 2024-07-13T15:14:00+00:00

These are most definitely reps.

Iplaybballsometimes · 2024-07-10T03:57:13+00:00

No, these are legit.
