Played 3 games, just got back.

1st game in the Attack Strong:
AMAZING, just like Zoom Air only better. It's almost as responsive as Zoom but it's plush and it's very
comfortable. Good for the knees and your feet. Heel to toe transition is on point on these and you
feel like your just bouncing around the court.

The sleeves are nice as well giving you that stable feel as well as comfort.

2nd and 3rd game in the Attack Fast:
My god, they felt like cardboard once I played in them right after the Attack Strong. It's not even fair,
don't try the Attack Strong if you want to play in these because your experience will totally suck. LOL

I will give a fair review though, the Zoom bags feel like Zoom, kinda like the zk5 feel. It's lower to the
ground but stiffer as I've mentioned. I don't see the point in wearing these now if you have the Attack
Strong insert.


Pros:
-traction is good, the herringbone is placed where you needed it. Played in a dusty court and my feet were
right where they were supposed to be.
-cushioning is good, both inserts provide what you need the full length Cushlon/Lunarlon tech is much much better
though
-forefoot lockdown is fantastic. just like the zk5 only softer and it molds to your feet better.
-when landing, the heel is excellently cushioned, superb impact protection.
-No hotspots. The shoe is very very good in terms of fit. I have wide feet so it's been a problem
for me. But this things molded to my feet almost instantly.

Cons:
-Heel lockdown left room for improvement. zk5 > zk7 > zk6 in terms of heel lockdown. It's not super good but it's not
bad either. The inserts' sleeve and the lack of an internal bootie system I think caused this because the heel counter,
padding and phylon design were doing their job. I think it's the sleeves.
-lace pressure on the top eyelet caused pain. I blame the lack of sufficient padding offered by the torch sleeve used
in the previous models. The current sleeve is soft, stretchy, it's good actually apart from the fact that it's really thin.
Even when I used the attack fast insole which has the leather tongue, it still hurt from time to time. They failed in that
department.



tons of pro just two cons.
overall these things are beasts you just have to find a way to work around the lace pressure on the top eyelet. I already
double socked and it still bothers me.

good review and I have two requests:

-can you compare this shoe to the Kobe 4, (Kobe 5 was too low in ankle, Kobe 6 was too flimsy for me)

- can you compare this shoe to the Jordan 2011 another shoe with a removeable insole

thanks in advance..

The kobe iv was amazing. traction is perfect, fit was perfect. The only thing negative about it is the
bottoming out of the Lunar Foam in the forefoot. You won't have that problem in the 7.
For me the 7 is better than the 4 simply because it was an improved version of the 4,5 and 6. Taking
the best things about them and creating a monster.

Sorry but I didn't get to wear the 2011s on the court so I can't say what's up.

Sad thing about the kobe 7 is durability. The midsole separated on my Xmas pair after someone stepped on me.
will be selling it tomorrow...
