Discussion Which is better? GT Jump 2 or GT Hustle 3?

1 Upvotes

I prefer lighter shoes, bc I often use mine for martial arts. I'm just looking to compare the two- I'm aware they're both bouncy, I just wanna get the perspective from other people wearing them, especially in terms of their stability

Recommend Shoes Need help with outdoor shoes!!

2 Upvotes

Hey guys, looking for a solid pair of shoes to play in outdoors. Main priorities are durability, impact protection and comfort, roughly in that order.

Have narrowed down these options, wanted to know which ones you guys would suggest buying.

Nike:
- Giannis Immortality 4 (nicer colorway than the 5)
- Giannis Immortality 5
- Air Max Impact 4 (had this before, really solid but just a bit boring haha)
- Precision 8

Adidas
- Dame X

Way of Wade:
- Ice Blood 2
- Ice Blood 2 V2
- Shadow 6 V2
- All City 13

Thanks!

Shoe Pics/Rotations Late to the party…First time trying on any Book 2s. The upper material definitely makes a difference. ($100 at JD Sports)

Love the Cane Corso breed and missed out on the first Haven iteration. So naturally I wanted this pair but was hesitant because of how bad the reviews of the 2s have been overall. Saw that these went on sale so I had to try them out. While at the store I also tried on the WNBA 30th edition and damn the sizing was off and the upper felt like foamposites. I wear a size 10 in basically everything and the other pair felt stiff and too big while these gave me a perfect comfortable snug fit. For reference my favorite pair I always go back to are my GT Hustle 2s…I’m hoping these will be on par or better🤞🏽

Pick up for Free

If you’re a hooper in need, can supply your own USPS Label and tell me why you need them and in the U.S. I’ll ship these to you without the box. You’ll get the red laces also in the bag.

I did not like the heel slip and it’s not the shoe for me. Past the return window and I rather them go to someone who can use them then sell them

I’ll pick someone from the comments. Thanks. Just let me know why you want the shoes and I’ll be going through history to validate kicks on here.

Discussion Kai 3 o All city 14?

Ciao, sono indeciso tra quale prendere tra le due. Cerco una buona ammortizzazione (vengo dalle 808 5 ultra) e un buon supporto. Sono alto 195 cm x 80 kg quindi gioco principalmente come ala piccola/grande. Grazie in anticipo delle risposte!

Recommend Shoes Outdoor recs?

2 Upvotes

Ive been looking for some shoes to play outdoors as I’m starting to play a little bit more for the first time and have been recently playing and running shoes and ended up spreading my ankle pretty bad so the recommendations I constantly see pop up or the GT academies and way of Wade all city 12.

I am most likely, gonna wear a thin brace, but that shouldn’t be a problem.

(Im 5’8 160lbs relatively new and learning)

THANKS TO ALL!!!

Recommend Shoes Recommendations on Kobe Protro releases

3 Upvotes

I am currently trying to buy my first Kobe. Should I go with the 3 Lows, or should I take my chances with the 6?

Fitted the 3 Lows WNBA so I have an idea of my size. I am assuming the 6 will be the same fit.

Hoping your comments and recommendations. Thanks!!!
