I guess it all comes down to play style and preference. I love this shoe. I didn't like the Book 1 at all. Appreciate the review.

I agree wih Deruw. Best shoe i use for ballin is kd14. But really sad that kd15 and16 are like a step down.

Got the same color way for 92 bucks can’t be too mad about them but definitely didn’t live up to the hype in my opinion. I like my Sabrina 1s way more.

Super fun for volleyball with the ZoomX if you're a hitter. Really wanted to love the academies but the 3s just didn't have enough cushion; to me they're as comfortable as the Fresh Foam BBv2/Lebron 21s but as light/responsive as the academies. No way I'd pay near MSRP for these though. In a weird way they make me want to play quicker to get more out of the shoe, kinda like when running shoes feel better at certain paces.
@OldManSneakerReview6 ай бұрын
Yes they are very light but didn’t make me bounce on the court like shoes with zoom air do! Kd16, book 1, any Kobe. These felt more cumbersome than anything. Very cool insight! Thanks for corresponding.

These shoes are extremely light and bouncy, it's for guards though... Guards are gonna get the benefits of this shoe, it's super responsive and if you're speedy you will absolutely love this shoe... No offense, the review for this shoe, is lacking some details.
