Leather is awful in most cases for actual basketball, it's heavier, it's hotter, it's far less flexible, it takes a long time of break it for it to form to your foot, it creases easy as ****.
You're ment to ball in these shoes, sure have a few ext models with it , but a performance model made...
Davis isn't getting a shoe he's a big man on the pelicans.Could easily see KAT getting one before Davis. There isn't any guys on Nike roster that deserve one ATM other than the people who have them ATM.well Unless somebody has a god like breakout.In a few years with a few young guys maybe will...
The shoes don't go for the best player that isn't how it works, although Nike should of made a harden model , Kyrie got his first, a Davis shoe won't sell as well and this model will . It's just about how well Nike can market you
The price point isn't relevant at all, Nike have been overcharging for years they can make a good model with good materials and sell it as a budget model and still make plenty of profit. plenty of other brands also manage just fine too.
so it's you just don't like the way they look? because they for playing basketball work really good imo but each to their own
tbh the best looking model current is the dlillard 2
Just curious as to what your issue with them is? Traction? materials?cushion? Or is it based on your preference for aesthetics over actual performance issues?
