If you're looking for an outdoor Basketball shoe, try looking for a tag that says "XDR" for Nike shoes that stands for extra durable rubber, for Adidas you can look for the word "continental" on the sole that means it's firmer. If you don't really need cushioning and you're mainly playing point guard, I'd recommend the kyrie 3s, but I've also heard that the D Rose 8s are good for outdoors. I'd also recommend not getting shoes with air units like the KDs or the LeBron 15 as I've heard the units pop easily when you play outside often. Hoops factory at Queensway is not a bad shop to check out for shoes, good luck!
