^ if you're aren't on your toes, you aren't playing hard enough. everyone puts a lot of pressure on their toes when they ball so it's normal for bball players to develop callouses there. especially underneath your big toe. using socks designed for bball may help you.

Exactly, play on your toes, play hard. They can squeak and give maximum traction even on the first game as long as you apply a lot of pressure. 
As cbfpunch advised, ALWAYS use bball specific socks. Don't rely on the thickness or the cushion that some ordinary socks have. It's the materials and the construction that matter. Avoid getting socks with more than 35% cotton since it's the main reason for blisters and friction due to moisture buildup.

That's a great combo. Thinner sock inside , thicker sock outside. I use to blend elites with NBA or just thinner low cut socks.

Nike Dri-fit quarters will do perfect for the VIs! Personally, I think wearing low cut shoes with crew socks on the court looks stupid.

Ok so i got my first pair of Kobes ever. I was a able to swoop up a pair of all-star vi's for a little over retail so I figured what the hell. I love the toe box as my fee are a little wide. Most of all I love the weight but the question I had was I usually wear a 10.5 and feel like an 11 was more comfy. I wore em all day today and was very happy, just need to ball in em though. I'm looking to swoop up another pair to hoop in though. What sizes are y'all going with? True or half size bigger?
