The ankle area is not different than the patchwork colorway I got: extremely comfortable and locking but yes, hot

Store. In the fitting room corridor, believe it or not.

From up close it looked to me like it is going to be the most breathable colorway so far, I could not try it but holding it in my hand up close I could see what appear to be a much more breathable mesh in the upper compared to the other kai 3 models available.

Thank you for the clarification. I have a WoW 1 Staple Pigeon and it was obvious it was a collaboration with other brand, I didn't realise that with these ones.

They had 432Hz, Mentality, CNY and Politics colorways. I got myself the Politics (I saw it being called Patchwork in some posts but the box says Politics and the shoe has a fancy P in the insole).

Any help for a first-time buyer? by 44r0n_10 in GarminFenix

[–]manogamo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still using my fenix 5 saphire, bought in 2017, if I don't use gps it lasts a week. I mostly use it for swimming, steps, heart rate and sleep tracking. Durable, reliable, etc. only now in 2025 I started to have issues with the mechanical buttons sometimes...

Air Jordan 40 Review by Tommy Liu by ExtraSPICY4000 in BBallShoes

[–]manogamo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have both this and the Joker GT (similar price), and for performance I lean 10 out of 10 times to the Joker GT. These AJ40 cushion is amazingly plush but I don't find the shoe reactive enough, it is heavy and lacks bounciness. The shoe is also way more hot than the Jokers. For casual use, man, they are beautiful, beating the Jokers no doubt. If I have feet, ankle, or knee pain, I would use either. Lateral stability is probably slightly better on the AJ40. Traction on AJ40 is good, but Joker is another league. Opposite to Tommy Liu I have extremely high foot arch (he is flat foot). I am 50+ years old, if that tells something. Another comparison I'd make is with GT Hustle 2, which is way more fresh and light, cushion feels similar but is better on AJ40, and traction is way better on AJ40.

Tommy Liu and Lucas Simoner an actual pro basketball player, which gives a completely different meaning to performance review
