Traction is definitely not great. It’s sub par to par. Don’t understand why they didn’t make the traction better. Everything else about the shoe is amazing. Been playing in the shoes for 2 months daily and when the court is dust, get ready to wipe after ever 1 to 2 plays.
Just got the GITP via mail. Gonna put these bad boys to the test today. I went a half size down and they still have some toe space, but they fit pretty snug widthwise.
Thanks for the in-depth response. Traction is very important to me. If a shoe doesn’t make me feel fast or confident in my moves, I stir away from the shoe. Might have to try the D Rose 8, cuz impact protection is also important time me. Thanks again.
