i haven't played in the CDP XVIIIs, but i have played in XVIIIs (white/red mids and white/columbia lows). shoe is comfy but the mids are on the heavy side.the cut is a little high for my preferences but i play guard and prefer a lower cut.

to me it's simple, either you can ball or you can't. back in the day they were playing in chuck taylors!

as long as the shoe provides good ankle support and you tie them tight, you should be good. i've been using the cdp xx1's and they're great.

they should be good but def better options esp if your looking for black and red

use the XXII's they are better for basketball......and they fit snugly......don't use those CDP's for balling...they are not fit to.....that'sbase on my experience......

I balled in my CDP XVIII's and I don't know why the insoles slides as i cut... unlike my OG XVIII's they are great for balling... The zoom air isfar stiffer in the CDP than the OG, I guess it needs a break in...

The OG's also had problem with the insole sliding and it's hard to get a good fit on these. That reminds me the oG had bad fit and causedme heel to slip a lot. Forget about these if you're serious, just rock them casually.

I haven't balled in any recent retros but I would personally assume no because of the bad
quality of the materials. I don't think they would hold up.

It might be the sizing as my CDP is 11 and the OG is only 10.5... You're right, Iam now rocking them casually and balling on myStealth 23's

too soft they don't protect your toes..

 

[rejimen]

white vred 18 were the most suitable for myself

 

[mateen cleaves]

These are horrible for basketball.

 

[zoomkobe14]

Why the hell wouldn't it be okay to play basketball in them?

alot of cdp quallity sucks... and since jb knows people are spending so much money on them i dont think they plan on people really playin ball in em. so they dont make it as good as it can be. BUT i could be very wrong...

very true, js quality is gettin extremely crappy. they dont sell js to play ball in, but for fashion
