Nike G.T. Jump 2 Review
Pros:
Top-tier cushioning setup
Improved mobility from the Jump Frame
Cons:
Materials quality could be better
Performance of the Nike G.T. Jump 2:
The latest in the Nike Zoom G.T. Jump series is an impressive upgrade. The traction is reliable, and it performs well on all court types. Dust doesn't affect performance much, but make sure to wipe. Nike improved the cushioning setup too. The React is soft and comfortable, while the Jump Frame and Zoom Air provide outstanding bounceback. The material quality isn't the best, but they feel comfortable. Lateral stability isn't as secure because of the reduced Jump Frame, but the support is still fantastic and uncompromised. The shoe allows for more movement. Overall, the Nike G.T. Jump 2 is a maximalist shoe done right.

The Nike GT Jump 2 is a maximalist shoe with unreal cushioning. I prefer to feel responsive and low to the ground, but this shoe is solid for bounce and impact protection.

The Nike G.T. Jump 2 is held back by the lack of lateral stability. The traction and cushioning are fantastic, though.

The Jump Frame combined with the React under the heel and the forefoot Zoom Air makes it incredibly easy to get off the ground in this shoe. It's plenty bouncy too.

The support is the second-best feature of the shoe. The straps and lacing eyelets draw you into the shoe, keeping you secure. The Jump Frame also provides lots of stability.
