I’ve worn Adidas basketball shoes for almost 15 years. It’s getting harder and harder to find a legit high top anymore. I understand that the pro athletes can market their shoes better, but they also have people paid to tape and wrap their ankles to go along with their low tops.I tried wearing these shoes twice - each for about 90 minutes of playing on an indoor, wooden court.Here were my issues: 1. I got a small blister on the bottom of one foot each time. 2. The lacing isn’t comfortable. If you tie it tight to secure your ankle, the lace “hooks” dig into the top of your foot. If you relieve the pressure by tying it looser, you lose the support of your ankle. 3. The bottom of the soles are pretty slick. Took a while for me to adjust so I wasn’t sliding on the court. This is different than previous adidas I’ve bought- where the soles have been great. 4. The shoe started to feel a little sloshy by the time I was done playing each time.Overall, I know I’m an old man at 36 and don’t buy shoes because of what athlete wears them. I just need something comfortable and supportive. It’s getting harder to find - even at a $130 price point.Played indoor with these a couple times. Bottom gets dusty fast.I like this shoe not only does it fit great the chalk cover wave is nasty and with 4 other colors on the soul there are endless ideas of match colors with your cloths. Great job addidasThese shoes look great and are super comfortable!If you are looking for a true size, It is here.When I seen them on the website they looked good but in person they look even better.The quality is great and the comfort is a plus.My wife loves her shoe they do fit a bit wide but I wouldn't suggest going down a size because they fit its just wideI like how quick it came and it is a comfortable shoe to wear casually not to play ball in. I'm pleased with this product and purchase.
