The GT Cut 3 continues its merry way with the release in France of an eleventh color to launch the 2024-2025 NBA season.
We stayed classic with a mainly black upper, a white “Swoosh” and a sole in the form of a gradient between black, white and gray. The “Zoom X” and “GT Cut 3” inscriptions also stand out in white, respectively on the midsole and tongue.
The “Smoke” color is available from 200 euros on Basket4Ballers.
Our verdict on the Nike GT Cut 3
Intended for the most dynamic attackers, the two previous versions of the Nike GT Cut saw their popularity skyrocket ahead of the GT Run and the GT Jump. This 3rd version has managed to preserve this heritage by remaining on its qualities, in terms of dynamism and reactivity while managing to positively innovate with this “Zoom X” foam which has the most beautiful effect.
However, the compromise between the lightness of the materials and their low durability, particularly at the collar level, needs to be reviewed. The cut of the tongue will also be left to everyone's discretion. For the rest, the model is a success, offering optimal results in terms of comfort, dynamic rebound, quality and safety of support as well as support.
The Nike GT Cut 3 thus preserves its rating among the best shoes on the market for rather dynamic outdoor player profiles. The pair is worth its price (200 euros) even if it will have to be taken with great care to preserve it over time.
