Hyperize????? Nah, too flimsy! I thought the Hyperdunks were WAY better, that is while the cushioning lasts! Although the man is arguably the best outhere,I'm not a Kobe fan but props are due! The Zoom Kobe IV is a legit, solid hoop shoe. Since I stopped buying Jordans near adecade ago, I hadn't bought multiple pairs of any other shoe, but this sneaker is well worth it. In my opinion, they have a certain old-school look tothem, they're responsive, light, and regardless of the low-to-mid cut, I haven't rolled my ankle since I've been wearing them (near a year now).Plus if you ID'em, you get to make ur your on colorway. Just stay away from the clear sole
