    i like the trae 2, even tho they're hard to put on it's my favorite adidas shoe. I don't really like the harden 7 because they heat up too much and feel heavy on foot.

    I have Kyrie flytrap VI and for my feet they are pretty comfortable. They have adequate cushioning, decent traction and great support overall while playing basketball. However the only thing that may be a problem is what Tommy also said when u land they may feel a little heavy and as if ur feet have nothing under them but for a budget shoe i dont got much complaints.

  • @shreygotlost4150
    @shreygotlost4150 Рік тому +4

    From my personal experience, the trae 2 performed amazingly, i think its because of my flat foot, but it was very comfortable and near perfect for me, but this is my experience.

    I have the black puma rise nitro and while they are heavy and cushion is stiff, i like the lockdown and comfort in the materials. Pumas run .5 size small so luckily i .5 sized up, they are still snug. But i honestly like playing in them, that colorway is so dope.

    Hello sir! Very huge fan!!! I was wondering if you could answer more of a random question to help me out. If we are talking traction alone, does the gt cut 2 or the Kyrie low 5 have better traction and a better bite on the court? Thank you!

    • @TommyLiu4
      @TommyLiu4  Рік тому

      Hey. I’d say the Kyrie Low 5 has better traction. GT Cut 2 at the very least will take a long break in time.

    I play for fun, but still play to win and perform well. A shoe can make such a huge difference Tommy. Lately the indor court I been playing it's been dusty, so I noticed TRC blaze court from Puma have an amazing tractor regardless of dust as well as the Lebron 20's not as good but still good. I tried those Kyrie in store and I agree 100% with you. Even the Nike impact 3 even feels better than those. Thanks for sharing. I haven't played in the Zion 2 yet, I know you mentioned they have good traction as well.

    • @TommyLiu4
      @TommyLiu4  Рік тому +1

But back to regular 37 i can def see from material why some dont like em but again for my feet theyre phenomenal. I think shoes are a lot like earbuds lol. Sony xm4 some might love.. me i fn hate em absolute junk for their price or all the different pairs some fit others and dont fit me lol
