Anybody had a good experience with these. Feel free to share your thoughts and opinions as I'm trying find a good place to get a pair of Nike zoom air insoles for my kobe ad and Kyrie 3
 
I got a pair off ebay for $10. They feel legit, or if not legit a good replica of the real one. I put them in a few shoes, but they're thinner width-wise than a lot of shoes so they slide around a bit. If you have room to put an insole on top of one it doesn't slide around much at all, but the insole won't feel like it does before because of the zoom underneath misshaping it. It does fit, without an insole, on narrow shoes, so I tried it on my Crazylight boost 2016 and even played in it some. Since the boost is right underneath my feet, I can really feel it, but it makes playing in it somewhat unstable, and my foot got the beginning of some bunions because it was rubbing directly on the rubber zoom bag.

Would I recommend it? If you have a casual shoe that is roomy enough for the zoom and an insole, and you're okay with it messing with the shape/feel of the shoe a bit, then its okay. I wouldn't play ball in them. Currently I have them in some big work boots. What would be cool is if they made a version that is the size of an insole.
 
I've seen these on ebay and I've always been curious how they feel. Are the width going to be the same for most sizes?

I don't know, but the width is okay for narrow shoes like the KD9 or CLB 2016. The thing is that the zoom does not go all the way to the edge; there is a centimeter or two of pressed plastic on the outside. The length is maybe half an inch shorter than the shoe. On those outside edges, the cushion dips, so it does feel weird because insoles usually bend up in those areas.

If you want to feel them and can get a good price on them(I paid $10, which I think is reasonable), then I say go for it. They feel pretty nice in some shoes. I've been trying them on some Cons Allstars and they seem to be pretty good on those. Hell, I'm thinking about trying to play in those(which may prove to be disastrous, but I think it would be funny to show up to a game at the gym with some damn Cons).
