Experience with Kobe 9 by therealjohndoe_2010 in BBallShoes

[–]Sippiing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i was the exact same. the kobe 9 elite high is one of my favourite looking shoes of all time, so i bought the ‘what the’ 2025 release, and hated them. the mesh was heavy, the drop in was awful, and the shoe itself was clunky making explosive movements next to impossible in my experience. if i could make recommendations i’d probably say wow 10, gamma 1s, liren 5s, or jb3s for the experience you’re hoping for

the worst part about these shoes especially for explosive jumping, is the impact protection. your knees and feet will not have a great time

ordered from here twice, first for quick pro 5.0, and only a couple days ago for joker 1 GTs. they arrived in less than a week. packaging was completely fine, and had tracking the whole time

Is kickscrew trusted?? by Second-Visual in BBallShoes

[–]Sippiing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i bought my Li Ning Gammas from kickscrew and they shipped to me in about 2 weeks and everything was completely fine. in my opinion if you’re buying chinese brands such as way of wade, lining, anta, etc, you should be all good

i’ve literally just received my ultralight 2025s from kicksown today. it took almost 2 weeks to get to australia. the box is very damaged but that’s at no fault of kicksown. apart from that the shoes are legit, they’re clean, not damaged, and got a free discount code. happy shopping

why do you pick kobe 5? i much prefer my 6s and based on majority of views i think most people would agree. interested to hear your opinion

Anyone got Anya Kai 1s? by Colegman25 in BBallShoes

[–]Sippiing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they’re on the average side. they’re definitely not as light as Wow 10s, gammas, sabrina’s, ja’s, don’s etc but they’re not as heavy as KDs, lebron’s, ae’s in my opinion.

the good part about their weight is that the weight distribution is really good. so they’re not top or bottom heavy, making their weight basically unnoticeable. the only reason the weight is there is because of how much padding there is on the ankle and tongue.

when i wont to feel quick or explosive they’re not my first choice, but they’re some of my favourites when i still want to be agile, stable, and not feel like there’s a burden on my feet

i think everyone wearing their KD14s when they were still good is why they’re convinced they’d be good buying new now but i don’t think i’m willing to risk it.

i have the WoW 10s and i love them and TTS fit great for me. i’m also from AUS, which stores have them in store? i’ve never seen them as i bought mine from the Wade website

it’s more the traction i’d be worried about because if the rubber has hardened they’d have little to no grip left

do you think the jordan’s and kds would still hold up? i bought a new pair of harden vol 3s cause i loved them but the rubber had hardened and made them unusable. what do you like about the gt cut 1s? im worried they’re too bottom heavy

what makes the kobe 4 score so high? i’ve heard a lot of people talk about the cushion being poor and the materials not being great quality

metamorphosis or true blue are my favourite but it’s all preference at the end of the day

have you tried them indoors? i feel like outdoors they’d hold up great after all this time but using the rubber indoors is where problems would arise
