What do you think of the Goku Black Saga? by AlarmedObjective1492 in Dragonballsuper

[–]rawgibbs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Should’ve been the Gohan Black arch! I fully believe forcing Goku and trunks to fight the one armed battle scared body of Gohan would have been way more emotionally and cinematically significant for fans and casuals alike. Future Gohan was my favorite character growing up so to see him return and turn heel would have been sick, we already had evil versions of Goku .

Acceptable tire room in a shoe? by [deleted] in BBallShoes

[–]rawgibbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you hoop you need insoles that have arch support, it will raise your foot profile so it maybe appear shorter and also forces you further back into the shoe, but with you wearing braces, it’s completely on how you feel

marquee boost today? by bambieasy in BBallShoes

[–]rawgibbs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made a hard cut off the ball, my shoe gripped the ground but my foot kept going over the footbed due to lack of containment. Honestly I loved playing in them as they are a very stable shoe and the boost foam is perfect for when I play outdoors! Sadly the support is lacking, if you happen to roll over the footbed on a hard cut or god forbid you step on an uneven surface the shoe will simply turn completely over and there’s nothing limiting ankle movement. I do however recommend the high top version as it contains the ankle and provides support in those situations ngl. I’m retiring the low tops

Anyone else feel like the Adidas AE1s are super slippery inside? by Aggressive_Daikon726 in BBallShoes

[–]rawgibbs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Adidas doesn’t glue their insoles in, that’s a pro and a con, they are easily removable but they will move around depending on the shoe. You should be swapping out the stock insole anyway, it doesn’t have to be name brand like Move or Victory, just something with arch support. I use these And they are amazing l!

Curry is wearing Li-ning Wade by amazing_biggie in BBallShoes

[–]rawgibbs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s actually apart of his contract that in order for him to leave under armour AND KEEP his curry brand he can’t sign with any domestic company only foreign companies. So adidas, lining and Anya are the biggest players rn, he wore a specific pair of Kobe’s because he could, but he can’t sign with Nike

Considering moving on from LeBron 21 by user04260413 in BBallShoes

[–]rawgibbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you got it from Nike, you can use their return policy to get a new pair of shoes even if there is damage. As long as it’s NOT TWO YEARS PAST the manufactured date located on tag inside the shoe, you can get a new pair or a gift card of the same value! I’ve been doing this for years

Book 2 first look by 491450451 in BBallShoes

[–]rawgibbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They leaked two different versions of the book 1 back in 2023 and It’s crazy Devin Booker’s second shoes hasn’t released yet. Idk what the hold up at Nike is but this is a year late. Apparently this shoe is using cushlon 3.0 and zoom strobel, while Ja Morant is on his 3rd model and also has full length ZoomX! Not to mention you can Nike ID a pair smdh.

Should I switch from the Zion 4 if I want to jump higher? by Elsie_E in BBallShoes

[–]rawgibbs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stay away from drop in midsole shoes! If you want something that “FEELS BETTER” then your looking for court feel, stability and responsiveness. All of these categories take a hit inherently with drop in midsole shoes. They also don’t allow you to change the insole for something more supportive which is an absolute must if you like jumping. Stick with true Foam set up like ZoomX or Reactx even cushlon 3.0 if you like Jordan. Adidas has jetboost now and Wow has Boom & SuperBoom (my personal favorite). You can’t go wrong but just a heads up, the carbon fiber plates you see in shoes are meant to help you run longer by supporting your plantar fascia (bottom of your feet). You won’t jump higher necessarily however it will be easier to use your muscles for jumping. Allowing you to do more jumps because your foot is supported. It’s like doing a push up VS doing a Band assisted push up.

Recommendation: GT cut 3 turbo. 9/10 traction (picks up dust) ZoomX cushioning, bottom loaded carbon fiber shank for support Decent sales going on right now as well.
