[@ls_hoops]

Thanks man, appreciate the feedback 🙌

[@basketball_is_everything]

first, love the vids man, you should review the wade fission 9. and i like the new setup

[@ls_hoops]

Thanks man! Will do- I should have a pair coming to me soon 🙌

[@80fame24]

can you do a midsole update i love them but i know lightstrike bottom out very quickly

[@iqmb5452]

Lovely vid! Would you recommend the don issue 5 or ja 1? Bounce and cushion.

[@ls_hoops]

Cushioning feels softer on the Don issue but the ja 1 feels bouncier imo

[@Hollowz401]

Yo could you help me out with finding a new basketball shoe? I have Sabrina’s but I play on dusty courts and I slip a lot so I need a good budget shoe with excellent traction and all around good could you help?

[@ls_hoops]

The JA 1 could be an option for you if you still consider that budget. Or the Immortality 3. Nothing crazy about that shoe but solid all around

[@nguyenduyhung1000]

[@ls_hoops]

They are called GREJIG from ikea

[@BayarjargalUB]

is the bites are good bro

[@ls_hoops]

Yes tried them on court yesterday evening and it felt pretty good! Dust pick up was stronger than other shoes tho, so that’s a difference from my first impressions

[@gustavobuenfild8047]

Maybe it's my thing but it seems like a too simple model to me, regardless of its performance, I like the Don Issue 4 much better, and with a very good performance.

[@ls_hoops]

Fair enough bro! Personally I like the design of the 5 way more than the 4. Just goes to show how different taste can be. Never played in the 4 so can’t speak about performance

[@hhhhh2148]

where are u man

[@trewright58]

You gotta get you some MOVE insoles

[@ls_hoops]

I definitely want to try out more insoles. I got VKTRY insoles arriving tomorrow very curious about them

[@trewright58]

@@ls_hoopsthey’re a lil overhyped, I recommend MOVE, best money value wise

[@BallIsLife077]

This or Ja 1?

[@ls_hoops]

I actually prefer these because of the fit as well

[@BallIsLife077]
