The Nike Air Zoom GT Cut is easily an expensive option. Unfortunately, this premium and comfortable feel comes with a price. There are also several holes in the tongue and forefoot, ensuring breathability. The upper feels comfortable, conforms to the foot really well, and feels very minimal.

While the GT Cut also delivers impact protection, a variant from its line-the GT Jump-does a better job cushioning impact.
