    Under Armour Micro G Bloodlines Performance Review

      I wear custom orthotics so I have to take the insoles out.  Am I assuming correctly that the Bloodlines insoles contribute a lot to the cushioning?  One thing I like about zoom based shoes like the Kobe's is that the cushioning doesn't change much after I put my orthotics in them.  Thanks.

    Long term storage question.

    Not sure if this is the correct place to post but here goes.  I'm an older gentleman, so I don't go through shoes as fast as I used to.  Since they work for ball as well as work and casual, I purchaced several pair of Kobe V's, possibly enough to last 4 or 5 years.  What is the best way to store...

    What Are The Best Performing LeBron Soldiers?

      I have always read and agreed that the III's where the best of the Soldier line.  Very good cushioning and feels similar to the 20.5.5's.  Very durable.  The IV's were extremely disappointing.  They fit bad, and the cushioning was way to firm.

    Rocking b-ball shoes

      For the old dude comment, I'm an old dude (42) and I only rock comfy BBall shoes.  In fact, I'm kinda known for it amongst my work mates etc.  I'm on my feet a lot at work in an aircraft hanger, and have been wearing Soldier III's for about a year.  Kinda a cross between a boot and a shoe...

    Zoom Kobe V Traction?

      Bought my 13 year old son a pair of the Del Sols at the beginning of the summer for AAU.  I knew some people had issues, but I love the performance of my pair, so I went for it.  He's a wuick point guard that makes a lot of cuts and slashes and needs good grip.   Well the first practice he...

    Nike Air Zoom Kobe V Review - The Greatest Basketball Shoe of ALL TIME

      Bought these for my 13 year old son and I can now confirm that the traction does improve after several wears, although not sure how a dirty floor would be.  His first practice, he was slipping on hard cuts, but now he doesn't.  Played a 5 game tournament, and he loves them.

    Nike Air Zoom Kobe V Review - The Greatest Basketball Shoe of ALL TIME

    Dumbfounded, what your take on the traction?  Does it improve after a few wears?

    Nike Air Zoom Kobe V Review - The Greatest Basketball Shoe of ALL TIME

    Well, my son was slipping around in his first summer tournament over the weekend in a worn out pair of HD's, so I found a nice deal on Kobe V's.  I have read some reports of bad traction but figured they will be better than what he has.  His first practice in them, he was slipping like crazy.  I...
