About an hour in, I didn’t even notice that I was seamlessly playing and biting the floor about how I normally would, and only at the end of the game, I actually stopped and realized that all is good now.

The lightweight, reinforced mesh upper keeps you contained all around, from the webbing that harnesses your forefoot to. The Air Max unit simply overcompresses if I planted my foot in a more awkward position or landed on the side of my foot, thus promoting an outward motion of the shoe and possibly endangering myself to an ankle roll.It seems that the pressure from the laces goes right through the thin tongue and my tall midfoot bone is there to soak it all in. The Air Max cushion setup is honestly a thing of the past and there’s no reason for Nikey to include it besides a clever marketing trick. I didn’t have any major issues with the performance of such a build, as we’ve all come to expect that now. The molded foam midsole is lightweight and resilient, making it easy to transition from heel to toe. Max Air cushioning absorbs the power of shocks and offers a sensation of optimal rebound and responsiveness.

But all of this doesn’t save the shoe from the fact that the cushion isn’t properly stabilized laterally. The lightweight, reinforced mesh upper holds the foot perfectly in place, from the lacing that locks the forefoot to the molded outer elements that ensure a perfect heel hold. It runs the entire length of the shoe and follows the contact zones between your foot and the ground. The lightweight, reinforced mesh upper keeps you contained all round, from the webbing that harnesses your forefoot to the external moulded pieces that lock in your heel. This is the most critical area for hoopers as we need to ensure the elevation created from the cushion is as stable as possible to prevent awkward foot plants or ankle rolls.

The lightweight, reinforced mesh upper helps keep you contained all around, from the webbing that harnesses your forefoot to the external molded pieces that lock in your heel. I feel like Nikey was aware of this and threw everything else they got support-wise (for the budget they had to work with of course). They’re not exactly groundbreakers but they’re such good cost-effective shoes and the 6 looks to do more of that. I do expect the thread to get a little thinner by the end of the season but that doesn’t mean traction will completely get messed up. Lightweight, reinforced mesh keeps you contained all round, from the webbing that harnesses your forefoot to the external moulded pieces that lock in your heel.

The back portion of the shoe seems to feature a screen mesh type of material that’s scratchier and cheaper but sturdier. I did feel some slight pressure on the area where the second and third lace eyelets reside (counting from the top). You’re right, usually they are more focused on the signature shoes from athletes, more so than providing good outsoles that are durable for competitive training and competition. It’s not as laughably terrible as it was on the LeBron 18 but still something I thought about from time to time. They help to make the bag and checkout process possible as well as assisting in security issues and conforming to regulations.Guys who are constantly hooping in a hot climate under the sun – you shouldn’t feel any worse than you normally would with these. A minimalist upper design and a more cushioned sole unit are key to delivering new sensations and improved on-court performance. I feel like this Air Max cushion setup will completely bottom out faster than this build will get damaged to the point where it would matter.

The thread simply doesn’t move as well as it does on more traditional indoor outsoles which are thinner and more pliable.
