I'm looking for a shoe that has really good ankle support. I'm trying to stay away from wearing ankle braces and taping up my ankles. Right now,I'm balling in some Lebron IVs and I just bought a pair of Hyperize (in the other thread, I said I hated em). Can you guys give me any recommendations? Also, can you guys give me some ideas of shoes that you dont have to go hunting for them. Thanks

You might have to take his word,cause apparently i don't have the IQ ,or physical strength to put mine on. beacause of the strap.That's why i'mthinking about getting rid of them.
 
Sharkalaids have a lot of ankle support, plus they're readily available (and on sale)... there's a review on my blog

The cushioning feels pretty soft to me. Air max in the feel and zoom in the forefoot.
 
^^^ Yeah, the cushioning on mine were fine for the first 6 months, but then the heel got really hard. And the air in the heel didn't pop either.

Do the Sharkalaids run true to size? I have a wide foot. Normally, I go 9. My lebron iv's I went 8.5.
 
i have ankle problems and am also way lazy for braces or tape, but my XII are wonderful as long as theyre laced up all the way
 
After years of playin ball the hyperdunks are by far the best ballin shoe i've ever had. Unfortunately they have no ankle support but I rather tape up andwear those then wear a different shoe. However, Hurache 2k4's have been my favorite before. Great all around bball shoe, i think
 
Definitely not bulky. I tried these on at the Adidas store and they're impeccable. Rose wears them every game instead of tape under his shoes, sothey're perfect for on court.

I can't find sizing chart, but I think it's like any other brace sizing. If you can, go check an adidas store in person and try them on. If youcan't find an Adidas store nearby, then I think a Medium should fit you.

Happy ballin

Thanks Jesus, I'll try the mediums. Nothing around me
 
If you wear the BBs and tie the laces right to the top they have a good support on the ankle. The hyperizes and hypermaxes are kool aswell just tighten the upproperly.
