I’m a big boy, 6’4” 350, former football player. I have wide, Hobbit like feet with Tailor’s bunions. These are THE ONLY basketball shoe to wear for us widefeets. I wear these working out and for outdoor pickup games. These are fantastic for folks with bad ankles and knees, like myself. I love them while running on the treadmill and stationary bike.

I appreciate all your reviews foot doctor! I picked up the Zion 2's after wanting a more supportive basketball shoe than the PG6. When I first put on the Zion 2's the ankle pads felt weird, but once I tied them down and got them on the court the support on the Zion 2's was night and day versus the PG6. I'm a guard, the indoor grip was great and Zion 2's were great for lateral movement.

Interesting, I really like the strap placement on this shoe. Usually the very front of the shoe where they’re arent any laces and your just relying on the pure fit of the toe box area is in my opinion the best and most useful place to implement a strap for a more secure fit. Also it’s the most convenient and least annoying place to put the strap as you can fasten it first and it’s not getting in the way of you when your tying your shoes the Way of Wade 8 has a similar strap placement and it works excellent. I’m somewhat surprised straps aren’t used more often I have a ton of shoes and I believe only 3 have a strap the WoW 8, the KD 14 & the Jordan 8. All 3 of them from the high cut to the mid to the low (funny enough the placement of the straps is the same cut as the shoes) increase the lockdown of the shoe immensely, that’s why I’m somewhat surprised they aren’t used more frequently with so many of today’s shoes dropping to a lower cut and using lighter more breathable not as supportive materials such as Mesh & knit.
@MyLOBsTerr Жыл бұрын
I recently purchased the Zion 2 shoes, and I couldn't be happier with my choice. My primary requirement was finding footwear suitable for playing on wet asphalt, and these shoes have proven to be ideal for such conditions. The level of confidence and security they provide is unparalleled. Even on super slippery surfaces where they may slide slightly, I maintain complete control. In comparison, I also acquired the Nike Impact 4, which boasts a similarly deep and rough pattern. However, it falls slightly short in delivering the same level of control, so I've designated them for dry weather use. The Zion 2, on the other hand, is reserved for any extreme conditions I may encounter. If you are a big guy just take, if you like full control just take it, if you are looking for the best traction just take it
