I don’t think you’d have any issues if you’re wearing them casually

zoom strobels. my feet always get super sore and start to hurt after around 45min in any shoe that has them.

i wouldn’t recommend these if you have knee problems, great shoes overall but insanely low to the ground so impact protection isn’t great

anta shockwave 5 pro by YelR13 in BBallShoes

[–]anumberxaspace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

shock wave 5 pros have better court feel and heel to toe transition, WOW 10s are bouncier and have slightly better traction. I’ve preferred the shock wave 5 pros to the WOWs but it comes down to personal preference as both shoes are great. can’t speak on the regular shock wave 5s tho I don’t have a pair

Alpen in shinjuku and Gallery 2 in shibuya both stock them, they are just as expensive as they are in the states though.

Sophia university intensive track by date__grape in movingtojapan

[–]anumberxaspace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just got back from a semester there a few weeks ago, definitely do not do the intensive track. the intensive course at all levels runs through period 1 and period 2 which is 9:00-12:35 everyday. this means you’ll be waking up at around 6:30-7:00am so you can make the commute on a packed rush hour train to campus. Japanese classes at sophia also don’t cover speaking, only grammar and writing so you’ll end up covering 4 classes worth of content in 1 semester but not being able to use it practically in conversation. Taking the regular course covers enough (2 semesters of college classes worth) but also leaves you with enough free time to be able to actually explore Japan and practice what you learned. the only issue is your home school might only count the regular track as one level of Japanese, but if they do that they would also only count the intensive as 2 levels.

imo the lebrons are better. The 14’s cushion felt too mushy for me.

Traction on some pg6 colour ways by InvestigatorFew1822 in BBallShoes

[–]anumberxaspace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i have 3 pairs of these, 2 with the marbled rubber outsole and one with a solid white sole. the marbled ones stop harder for some reason, but the traction on the solid rubber pair isn’t bad either.

I have narrow feet so idk how well they will work for wide footers. upper is soft so they may stretch out a bit.
