Should i get the book 1 "solar red" or the ae 2 christmas
What do you prefer between Harden 9 and don issu 7?
Thank you for the USD and US sizing on your socks, Much Appreciated
Should I get the Kobe 5 xray or the 808 5 ultra v2 and what’s a good budget shoe so whatever shoe I get doesn’t get destroyed by the end of the season
Any review on the tatum 4s?
Love your videos, what are some good shoes for flat feet?
Get some WOW 12s! Although, I don't think you'll rank them high on your list.
Also, I've read that they are made from pig leather suede so you might avoid it until it releases SE colorway. Only if you are still practicing Veganism.
just asking, my basketball ssn starts late january, so i wanted to know, what shoe is best for a fast-paced guard?
Im some how wide fiter ja 3 is good
should i get gt cut 3s, gt cut 3 turbos, don issue 7s, or book 1s? (i am 70% at the shooting guard and if i don’t play sg i play pg
Im glad you ranked the Kai 1 and 2 so high. It's a personal favorite of mine, I have three pairs of the 1's (triple black, jelly and enlightened warrior) and two pairs of the 2's (artist on court and triple black). Great breakdown of them and their differences.
Once I phase out my currently entirely thrice-striped rotation, I'm really looking to snag some New Balance FF BB v2/v3 or TwoWxy v5, some 361°s, WoW All City or perhaps the Kai 1 or KT 10/11. One of those would be lovely.
Happy holidays!
Very nice review brother specially coming from a PRO HOOPER like you
