Adidas Crazyquick 2

The Crazyquick series continue... Crazyquick 3

Glad they are going low first or only lows. They never released the last iteration of the lows in the U.S. So I guess it makes sense we see lows first. Still want to grab the white 2 low Lin wore on Christmas.

I'm actually curious to see how this plays, liked the 1s, 2s were better, I had given up hope on the 3s but they surprised me

@thapointguy  I have been curious about this series since the first version dropped.  Was very close to getting the 2s.  I actually just came up on a pair of the 1s on eBay for 43 shipped.  Boom... looking forward to trying them out

wall 2 much?

Sweet deal. Can't go wrong with any of them. Know you like lows so you might buy the 3s too if you like the 1s. They are $20 off on FNL already, the two black colorway. Could possibly become cheaper in a month or two.

Got these in from Finishline over the weekend. They're $60 with shipping but after coupon and WC reward that they sent me for my birthday came out to $40 so I grabbed them.

A lot of NBA players(Duncan, Barnes, etc) are wearing them but they must be wearing orthotics or Adidas added more cushioning in the forefoot on their pairs as they are non-existent in these. Doesn't help that they keep putting in cheap and thin insoles. Still wearable but not for lengthy periods. The thicker Adiprene+ heel makes up for it though and heel to toe transition is smoother.

The upper is a mix of mesh and fuse. The fuse on the toe guard is nicer quality than usual. It's like a soft brushed material and some what thick so should be more durable. Better quality than the Wall 2.0. The ankle area is thickly padded and feels comfortable also better than the Wall 2.0. Since there's mesh the ventilation could have been better.

It's a low but it's in-between low and mid. The high wrapping midsole adds a little stability and support as the mesh and the fuse layer between the mesh doesn't give you that alone. I like the combination as it gives you full range of motion and not restricting.

True to size and replace with thicker insoles or half size down.

The traction is nothing crazy, it's okay just like the Crazy Quick 1 and 2. The crazyquick design of the outsole has always been the highlight. If you are a forefoot striker it's everything you look for.

I give this shoe a 7 out 10.

^Thanks for the quick review.  Definitely a bargain -- not something I will probably pick up but good to know more about them.  That heel padding does look extremely comfortable.

Curious to hear from more folks on the Rose 6

The black/white are now $49, 10% off (SAVE10SALE still applies).

I'm liking them a lot more after getting more wears on them. I would rank them above the Lillards.

would you recommend them to me if my top 3 are kobe 8, 9 & CL Boost 2015? I find that I enjoy playing in minimal shoes the most. I do switch the insole for every shoe that allows it

It's a minimalistic shoe. As you probably know cushioning isn't adidas basketball strong suit for low budget hoop shoes. You can replace the insoles with thicker insoles and they are good to go. Adequate support, lightweight, great flexibility. $50 for the black/white pair, cheaper if you have WC reward worth a try
