ID4shoes is in Taiwan and they get me shoes in 2-4 business days. Was supposed to have em yesterdays but I didn’t hit for them to drop off at the door.

It’s nice and flufffy underfoot. Nothing groundbreaking but feels like a softer react lol. The phylon is stupid spongy. I’m looking forward to the red pair now!!

The greenish portion is the formula 23.

Only thing we gotta think about when hooping is how long itll last before it bottoms out

This…
I’ll still get a pair but if they bottom out, they’ll turn into lifting shoes.

Not that long. Zoom Air is still king. Longevity and the best feeling ever lol

Amen I dont think we will ever see anything better than zoom air I still remember having the first air jordan with zoom air the 12 and I was in love haha, miss the old leather uppers on ball shoes, i see your reviews was thinking about buying the kobe 1 protros how are those on court?

Protro 1s are stellar. Full length zoom instead of the segmented bags. Old school leather uppers, I thoroughly enjoy playing in em still

Again, people always worrying about a shoe bottoming out as if they got an 82 game season coming out.
Ya'll will be fine.

If you can play in dead foam that doesn’t provide any cushion or support then you have no nerve endings in your feet.

Just out curiosity, why does the "foam bottoms out" narrative always applies to Nike and Jordan models? What I mean is, Adidas, Puma, NB etc all use foam based cushions but, correct me if I'm wrong, you don't hear people and reviewers talking about them how the foam is gonna bottom out fast on them to a same degree as do about Nike/Jordan foams? Atleast what I have heard.
And just as an disclaimer, I am not trying say that it will happen or it won't happen, I'm just genuinely curious about the subject.

It happens with them as well. Open cell foam offers more cushion off the bad but it’s more susceptible to damage and loosing the cushion effect.
Closed cell foam isn’t as soft but has better longevity.

It’s pretty obvious that shoes wear down over time, regardless of the tech, including zoom. I have full length zoom shoes that don’t feel the same anymore (no they didn’t pop) but these are shoes that are at minimum 2+ years old.. zoom takes a longer time to break down than foam.
It’s foam, regardless of what you inject in there, it will break down faster than tech that has plastic in it: zoom, air max, etc

Ya I def have zoom pairs that are toast. Agreed forsure. Def prefer the feeling and longevity but it all comes to an end lol

Yes agreed, but for some reason my hyperdunks still feel good. No idea why.
People complain about shoes bottoming out as if they play an 82 game season or as if they dont have other ball shoes they rotate. You’ll be interested in a new pair far before your shoes crap out on you. Now if you play that much cause you play for a team or you train or blah blah then sure, but even then dudes have rotations of kicks or have custom insoles.
