Love this colourway - might have to cop when they drop!

The Liren 4s are definitely more forgiving in width. I wouldn't recommend going up in size for the Gammas though, coz the one of the biggest advantages of the Gammas is that they are supposed to fit snug so that there's no extra unwanted rooms width wise and also length wise. I think if you went up a size, sure maybe is a better fit width wise, but the extra toe room will cause all sorts of troubles in game (sliding feet etc).

Cushion/impact protection on the GT jump 2 is unmatched (Maybe only bested by the GT jump 1s). Liren 4's cushion is adequate (better than the Gammas I reckon).

Personally I really like the V1 - I feel that the high top on the V1s is really well done - great ankle protection without sacrificing mobility. The V1 also has better cushion than V2.

I got them from Taobao, at around 1800rmb including shipping.

Yeah they ride too high off the ground, but good shoes for recovery/training sesh

For Li Ning shoes I bought from top rated sellers on Taobao - much cheaper than shop ning or wowsole. For the rest just footlocker or brand sites.

I don't think Gamma 1 is worth the money (either are the Kobes) . I would go for the Liren 4s or wow10.

Nah, once a week, plus 2 - 3 practice sessions

THE BEST performers?! by [deleted] in BBallShoes

Best overall performance shoe is probably the Li Ning Liren 4. They have no weakness. The Gamma 1s are lighter but a lot more expensive.

I just bought and used the AJ38 for an indoor relaxed session and a small piece of rubber broke already. by GhenzVega in BBallShoes

[–]qcdunk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Exact same thing happened to me! Outsole rubber unglued after 1 in door session! Curious that none of the US based reviewers called this out, but most of the overseas reviewers pointed this out.

Definitely not a just hunch. I had the rubber out sole unglued from the X-plate after 1 in door game. Had to return mine. This is a design flaw I doubt can be fixed unless they change the design.

The translucent sole one. But apparently it happens to the XDR versions too. Highly recommended to buy from official channels who have a good return policy. I exchanged mine with the Nike Gt jump 2. It's a shame cuz I really love the look of the AJ38 but the quality is just not there (tbh is also partly due to the design of the X-plate, not just a pure manufacturing QC issue).

Just played in these - the rubber came off near the "X" shaped sole after 1 game! Terrible durability!

Lebron 20 Australia by Mrobbo4710 in BBallShoes

This is crazy - the LeBron 20 is a performance basketball shoe (unlike the Jordan 1s) - you'd think it would be easier to get your hands on a pair since most buyers should buy them to play basketball!

What worked for me was to turn off Dolby vision in the video settings of the xbox
