How long do these last? Tanks due to the zoom cushioning? No bottoming out .. no traction wear etc?

Idk about lifespan but the traction is very hard and is good for outdoors. I said they were tanks due to the support and traction. You locked up real good, it's very stable and grip is a1

nobody can predict how long zoom will last, but the soles/midsoles on these are pretty durable. the only bball shoes I would describe as tanks are the Jordan xii and a few lebrons (4 and 5 come to mind).

The OGs lasted a good period, don't remember the zoom bottoming out. I'm not sure if anyone knows if the Protro will bottom out yet.

Finally got my hands on the size 15 I needed. The size 14 was way to snug. I wore the pair one time to a laker game and while it was bearable, I didn't want to continue to have my small toe be bothered.
The OG Kobes had more room in them compared to the Protros.
Flight club still the best spot to slang NDS shoes?

How much did you pay resell for the big sizes? Keep looking for a 14 in non laker cw and they ar usually 600 and above.

These might be the best performing shoe I own. I dont have to think about my shoes when I play with these on. The leather, the full length zoom, the traction and the stability of the shoe. So many great aspects. I don't have any negative things to say about this shoe at this point

I'd use FC for sure. GOAT owns them now, so they use this process for used shoes.

Does the box and size tag look the same as it does for the rest of the protros?

Yeah its the same but no price sticker, which is normal.
