"There's something almost sci-fi about the way Nike's latest basketball shoe looks. The G.T. Cut 4 feels like the kind of sneaker you'd see in a movie about athletes competing on another planet, with its sleek, low-profile silhouette and those distinctive vents running along the side panels. But here's the thing: this isn't just about looking cool (though it absolutely does). Nike really went all-in on making what they're calling their most responsive basketball shoe yet, and honestly, the tech behind it is pretty wild."
"Nike packed this shoe with ZoomX 3.0 foam in the midsole, which is their softest and most responsive cushioning technology. This stuff is usually reserved for elite running shoes, so seeing it adapted for the hardwood is a big deal. But they didn't stop there. The ZoomX 3.0 works alongside a parabolic Zoom Strobel, RBR-X foam for stability, and a Cushlon carrier for support."
The G.T. Cut 4 is the fourth iteration in Nike's Greater Than series, engineered for players who create space through cutting, quick changes of direction, and explosive first steps. The design pairs a sleek, low-profile silhouette with side-panel vents and a new generative traction pattern. The midsole uses ZoomX 3.0 foam—the softest, most responsive ZoomX—combined with a parabolic Zoom Strobel, RBR-X foam for stability, and a Cushlon carrier for support. The layered cushioning returns energy on landing to enhance explosiveness. The line emphasizes technical performance over athlete branding and adapts elite running foam technology for basketball movement.
