Played today for the first time on mine. I think if you weigh over 200lbs (like me) you wont have any issues with traction. I never had any issues with bite, but I do weigh 210 so I'm probably puttong more force into the shoe than he is. (wiped only very occasionally for dust). The impact protection is super welcome as well and stability is great. Gonna keep wearing them while I ramp back up from a foot injury. As the video says, if you want lots of responsiveness and courtfeel -- this ain't it.
I wonder if the traction performance varies based off rubber types? He was having issues with a solid rubber outsole and I scooped up the purple pair from all star weekend with translucent, time will tell I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Those are race day shoes I’m pretty sure, so they’re extra soft and comfortable but not durable at all. All companies with running shoes have shoes like that. Nike’s is the Vaporfly.
What’s better for pg, 182cm, 70kg: nxxt gens, ja 1, freak 5, sabrina 1 or gt cut academy? I need an awesome traction, light weight and solid jumping (cushion), because I’m training dunking. Actually, I have kd 15 and want to have better and more performance shoes Or u can advice another better kicks for my option? (under 150$)
@@mcubez817 new balance generally have a bit of spare room in the length. I personally love that about em. Keeps my big right toe from jamming the front. Though I still had that issue with the kawhi 1's. The kawhi 2's were the perfect fit for me though
The traction is really good. He doesn’t know what he’s talking about. The traction takes a couple hours to break in. It does pick up dust but not that bad. On a clean court the grip is excellent.
He’s also very light, the heavier you weigh you’ll be able to put more weight on the shoe so it doesn’t slip. I’m pretty sure he is around 160lbs as well for a reference
This colorway is real nice. I like how the N is low profile

@@breudeu I saw those purple ones and was intrigued about the translucent outsole. Let us know how they perform!
@@breudeu bruh how is the translucent outsole my brother???
Would you say this could be used for outdoor hooping?
Hi sammy, Can you make a "does it still basketball" video for the converse conquest mid, btw. great review as always💕
my 2wxy V 4's slid a bunch the first like 3 times I played in em. Then the traction broke in and they've been money since
NB most expensive shoe that I found is the fuel cell elite $250 holy cow.

Next gen after you break them in are soooo gooood
Got em for 83 usd crazy steal brand new too
why go up half a size? he should explain that. Like did he try his normal size and there were issues?
I went TTS and had no issue's, feel like his heel slipping issue is probably due to getting a half size up but that's just me.
@@breudeu I was wondering the same thing about the heel slippage.
I actually went down half size. Runs slightly long in my opinion

He always goes up half size for no apparent reason. I have wide feet and I went true to size in these and they fit fine. They are wide foot friendly.
Where cj2, scoot 0, nxxt gen ampd and dvd 2
Really hoping for a more positive review. The traction is a bummer.

WHERES THE BOOK1s
Ikr, no one does shoe reviews quite like sammy. Not even weartesters
Traction pattern looks like a tortoise shell.

Not built for little people.
These look like boots
