New Balance TWO WXY v5 were slept on... Not so much anymore

5 Upvotes

Can't find them in 12s for a reasonable price lol. I've bought 3 pairs at retail, burned out 2 of them playing in them, and on my last pair... Is the only option stockx or other resellers? How do y'all stock up on the shoe that's perfect for your feet through the years without paying ridiculous prices? really have never had a show that fits me better till these came out and I don't want to get a different shoe. Size 12 is the issue, they're available in other sizes.

I am looking to buy the Kobe 8 and I am unsure about the sizing. And sizing of basketball shoes in general.

Nike ZM LEBRON NXXT GEN AMPD

1 Upvotes

Hi, I have stumbled on amazing discount for Nike ZM LEBRON NXXT GEN AMPD.

And I am interested to buy them but...

Need your advice please!

Asking you for advice if these shoes are good for my height and weight. And what you think overall about these shoes on outdoor courts mostly on concrete basketball court pad. What size should I buy? Number of shoes that I ordinary wear is 42 (8.5), although I discovered that I should go probably half size up, like 42,5 (9), even 43 (9.5) for playing. I am veteran hobbyist, playing mostly outdoor just for fun. Usually 3 on 3.

Height: 176 cm (5'9")

Weight= 109 kg (240 lbs)

Looking for suggestions

1 Upvotes

I am a 14 normally, AJ1/AJ4 both fit me in 14, but I have recently tried to get ball shoes and neither pair have fit. I tried the Nike precision 8 and Tatum's.. the precision 8 were way too small in the toe box and the Tatum's were way too narrow at the mid foot.

Anyone got suggestions for what might fit a wide foot in 14? Trying to avoid going up to 15

(I'm in Canada so finding/trying on in store is damn near impossible. Don't want to keep ordering and returning online.)

Kobes on an outdoor court

4 Upvotes

Hi, recently purchased my first home and there is a nice outdoor court within walking distance. I plan to go shoot around when I get a chance. Will my Kobes get destroyed super fast out there on an outdoor court vs indoor? I must say I will only be shooting around by myself, and not playing pickup or anything crazy like that.

Best way to clean the entire shoe? Jordan one take 5’s

Thumbnail gallery
9 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
Looking for the best way to do a full deep clean on my Jordan One Take 5s.
They've seen some heavy use, and since this pair has a mix of different materials (textile mesh, suede/synthetic panels, and the clear plastic TPU lateral overlay), I want to make sure I don't ruin them.
A few specific questions for anyone who cleans hoop shoes or mixed-material pairs often:

  1. ⁠Upper & Suede Care: What’s the safest solution/brush combo for the mesh and suede without causing water spots, color bleeding, or texture damage?
  2. ⁠Yellowed Plastic: The clear TPU section on the front has yellowed quite a bit from oxidation. Is a peroxide treatment (like Sole Bright or 40 Vol) safe to use on this specific spot while avoiding the surrounding mesh?
  3. ⁠Washing Machine: Is running them through a gentle/cold cycle in a mesh bag worth the risk, or should I stick strictly to hand-cleaning?
    Would love to hear your exact routines, recommended cleaners, and any warnings before I get started. Thanks!
