Nike PG 5 review
The Nike Paul George 5 (PG 5) comes off exactly as it is advertised: a highly cushioned, multi-use basketball shoe that sticks amazingly to the court and moves well in transition.
Who should buy it

- is highly cushioned
- nike air force 1 high white with flap on back side
Who should NOT buy it

I would definitely go a half size up personally if given another chance to have these. There isn’t much room for the toes to flex or your foot to breathe. If you are someone who likes more room, you will definitely need to look at going a half size or even full size up.
Tight fit
The fit of the Nike PG 5 is pretty reserved and it leaves me preferring other more guard-based shoes simply because I hate not having enough room to move in transition.
The lacing structure seems to add to this issue. There are a lot of eyelets, and by the time the shoes are completely laced, there is barely any room left to tie a knot.
A highly-cushioned basketball shoe
The Nike PG 5 does a nice job of providing a solid launching platform and giving tonnes of cushion for any basketball players who need more cushions or who deal with foot injuries.
The Nike PG 5 is not flexible
While the shoe feels flexible through the way the cushion bounces and reacts, the shoe itself is not overly flexible. The Nike Strobel cushioning is pretty dense and the result is what feels like a pretty flat-footed or “chunky” shoe when standing still in the defensive lane.
In transition, it feels a little bit better but still heavier and more noticeable than other guard shoes.
Superb traction
There is a lot of traction and the grip on the floor is great. There are a variety of circular patterns on the outsole which creates a lot of traction and provides a good platform for jumping. The overall feel of the shoe also performs well when standing still and jumping vertically.
The Nike PG 5 looks great
The colorways on this Nike Basketball shoe are pretty awesome in this shoe overall, ranging from very colourful options to more plain colours. The shoe looks great and could certainly be worn as a casual shoe.
Good value for money
Priced at £120, the Nike PG 5 is cheaper as compared to most low-top basketball shoes (£130 average price). While it isn’t the greatest basketball shoe I’ve ever worn, you get a lot of value for the price.
