    Cool review! how does light foam compare to Anta Aflashfoam or Peak Taichi? or maybe Nike React? Interested to know if it's softer or at par with those. thanks!

      Hi! I have yet to try A-Flash foam for playing but from a try-on only. I own a taichi and react so here’s how I would rank them:
      1)Taichi
      2) React
      3) A-Flash (Anta)
      4) Lightfoam (Li-Ning)

    • @unorthobox7350
      @unorthobox7350  4 роки тому +1

      That ranking is based on mushy, pillowy comfort feel on foot. Then again, Peak is ahead because i haven’t tried the caged version of the taichi cushion, but it is the comfiest I have felt just like that first time we all tried Boost.

      Cool thanks! probably not for me then, I have some knee issues. So far I can play with Renew, Aflashfoam and Quikfoam with no issues. Haven't tried Taichi yet but everyone says it's the softest. Lining has been weird with their cushion tech they have a lot and it seems they're not consistent. Like Boom, Cloud, Bounse+, Light, etc. Hard to tell which is which. Also almost the same names as Adidas haha.

      @@wninetyfive Man, I got knee issues too since I tore my ACL, I've recently been picky with my hoop shoes since then. Which is your favorite among renew/ A-flash/ Quikfoam?
      Taichi is pretty pillowy but is sacrifices stability so just be careful when you try them.

      Sorry for the late reply. 8.5 if I were you, you and I have wide feet so you know how accommodating Li-Ning is widthwise.

    Do you think these shoes will be good for playing basketball outdoors and are they durable? I found these lining sonic 8 on sale for less than $50 and want to buy them to replace my old dame lillard

    • @unorthobox7350
      @unorthobox7350  4 роки тому +1

      I wouldn’t recommend them. If you’re used to Lillards, the 7’s are a real solid option, better than the last year’s. You can check my review on that. I would also recommend the Zoom Freak 2’s since those have been out a while and are most likely on sale in your area.

      @@kennyd7667 When it comes to non-signatures, Anta definitely has the best options. Affordable and very comfortable at least on a try on. Li-Ning is just too expensive and too hard to get at least here in the Philippines.
      I wouldn’t recommend these for outdoors because if you failed to wipe your soles, the dust pick-up is so intense that slipping and sliding is just always there. I’ve watched CJ McCollum struggle on court and that’s a professionally maintained court, what more outdoors.

      Best to try on in store to see what you like especially if you’re new to a brand. I have yet to test and Anta shoe but look to in the near future. Take care always and never stop playing 🏀.
