I have a pair of Fighter jet foamposites and I was wondering if they'd be good to play basketball in.. I usually wear them to walk outside but take fairly good care of them and have seen a few NBA players play in foamposites. (Rajon Rondo, Demar DeRozan, etc) I've previously tried playing in my foamposites but they don't have much grip for some reason, It's sometimes hard to stop and I sometimes find myself slipping. Do you think using the product "Court Grip" by mission on my foamposite's soles to try to gain grip would ruin the sole? What can I do to gain lots on grip on my foamposite's sole and prevent the shoes from making me slip or slide?
 
Foamposites were definitely a staple amongst kicks on court, but the tech hasn't aged well. The design is over 17 years old, hence there are much better (and cheaper) options available for on court play.

I don't think the product you are attempting to use will make much difference. There is a foam posits thread in the Nike Retro section which will probably give you more insight than here.

Hope that helps.
