Zion 3 Performance Review - Watch before you BUY!!

[@dunkkid23]

I’ve been in mine for about 3 weeks now and love them. The traction broke in after like 3 runs for me. I’m going to load up on these.

[@snkrtechtalk6005]

Awesome. Did you size up? I’m looking to go up that half size!! I’m

[@dunkkid23]

@@snkrtechtalk6005 tbh Steve, I went TTS and the fit has been amazing for me. I know that I’m in the extreme minority with that. The fit is tight but not to the point where I feel discomfort. These are definitely a “case by case” situation sneaker.

[@hayatetran7073]

I replace the drop in midsole with ones from lebron 11 and it actually fixed the narrow fit. The outrigger of the zion 3 drop in being higher than old kobe or lebron makes it takes more space and squeezes your toes

[@dunkkid23]

I did the same thing and made them even more bouncier. That LeBron 11 drop-in is legendary.

[@miguelcervantes2986]

Do you think the drop in from kobe 9s would also fit in the zion 3? Also planning to cop the shoe.

[@jinxy6]

I got em just yesterday and I had to go 1.5 size higher so that I could “grow into them” said my parents but they still fit snug but not overly snug

[@Ballshoesaddict]

Traction for me is amazing i have the fresh paint colorway its all translucent rubber. I like the zion 3 better than j38 and all pro nitro.

[@therealmarcc.2529]

Great review! Do you consider this shoe better than the Nike Ja 1?

[@snkrtechtalk6005]

Cushion, support, materials and fit yes. Traction the Ja 1 is still better

[@therealmarcc.2529]

@@snkrtechtalk6005thank you! Got the Ja 1 in a size 10.5. I’m a widefooter and they fit perfectly. Might get an 11 in the Zion 3.

Did you ever get a half size up bigger pair?Did it fix your fit problem?

[@mariovelasquez72]

How did the size11 feel ? Workout ?

[@bosskelly4946]

I changed the insoles with a custom and it feels 100 percent better

[@jackc5444]

The traction alone is a dealbreaker.

[@snkrtechtalk6005]

Agreed

[@spencerkogut107]

Awesome deep dive into these shoes. How would you compare these to the Game 1s?

[@snkrtechtalk6005]

Nearly as supportive, nicer cushioning. Game 1 has far better traction.

That drop in fits 808, SPO, or any other shoes?

I gotta try these on…. What do you compare the forefoot bounce to?

[@Ballshoesaddict]

For me Its like toned down j37 feels so nice

[@DanSneaks]

Can you recommend this for outdoor court?

[@snkrtechtalk6005]

I think the outsole will hold up, probably not the upper though!
