    Doc you're delivering the content i didn't know i needed. Was checking the all pro nitro on footlocker and saw these being waaaaay higher than other ones and i thought it was pricing mistake. I thought to myself, surely the colourway don't make them worth that price... i'm about to find out from you!

      so turns out they aren't worth it to the average guy. thought that if i paid $250 it will take my 5/10 game to 6/10 but i don't think it will do that. Maybe the next $400 ones will!

    Jeremy Sallee designed Puma Hoops shoes are some of my favorites to play in. The textile builds stand up to abuse, the padding often makes the fit feel 1 to 1 on me, and sometimes the cushioning combos are perfect for my style.

    Thanks, doc! The Kobe 9 comparison might justify the price, but because of the same lateral traction issue (I plant hard off two feet to jump) I'm gonna pass this time. Big fan of the regular All Pro Nitro, have two pairs.

    I don't understand companies that don't do enough testing on their products. The grip is one of the primary factors. If I was running Puma, I'd make sure I'm testing with different outsoles with different players in diff play styles in both dusty and really good courts.

Many people, including myself, wear these types of shoes for style and everyday walking. However, I'd like to know what steps or actions I can take to protect my feet when wearing these shoes.

    Definitely not a $250 shoe. The Nike Foamposite One was considered years ahead of its time, and those too were outrageous at $180 in 1997. I look at the Nitro Elite and basically see the All-Pro Nitro with a flimsy carbon shank inside. With an original MSRP for the All-Pro Nitro around $130, I think the Elite has a more realistic price tag around $150-160.

    Question: what’s the reason you can’t put an orthotic on top of a drop in? I’ve tried my orthotics in my Kobe 9 elites as just a try on and it feels comfortable with no heel slippage. Never tried a drop in due to my orthotics (high arches with 1st metatarsal head pain that gets deep blisters without my orthotics) would a drop-in midsole be worth a try with no orthotics or should I avoid them as a whole?
