Nike has added ZoomX Foam to a basketball shoe for the first time, which the company described as a “detailed process”.

Designers needed to balance the foam’s responsiveness with a low-to-the-ground court feel.

The stack height on the G.T. Cut 3 is lower to the ground than its predecessor, the G.T. Cut 2, and it’s also lighter in weight, for a springy and responsive feeling on the court, said the company.

The Nike G.T. Cut 3 features a lightweight textile upper that’s reinforced using Flywire.

For the first time in the Greater Than Series, the Cut franchise will introduce a lower-priced model with the addition of the G.T. Cut Academy.

The G.T. Cut 3 will also extend down to children’s sizing.
