    Never been a Nike guy just because 90% hoopers go Nike lol. I loved my Two Wxy v3. Got the Two Wxy v4. They feel weird, but the traction is almost as great as the v3. Just bought the Don Issue 6 and I’m in love with them. Great containment. No more knees soreness. The traction isn’t as good as Two Wxy v3, but still solid. Just a slight heel slippage that makes me buzzing tho. Will probably look for Two Wxy v5 in the future. Love NB shoes !

  • @joemacch6284
    @joemacch6284 5 месяцев назад +2

    Puma basketball shoes have sizing issues and are underperforming the market. Same with NB with possible exception being the Kawahi 3. Otherwise I don’t like new balance in the basketball space especially with no 12.5;size being manufactured in most of their models. Not a fan of either company in the basketball space.

  • @Steve-xt2ze

    Great video. I assumed all li ning were better than all American shoes minus Adidas. I haven't been able to enjoy or rely on Adidas since ultra boost. The foam is too soft. I have the harden volume 5 McDonald's. Very similar to AE1. Heavy, stuff, and big heel slippage. I would like a comparison of new balance vs li ning and Nike or your opinion. I play more center, PF, F
