Profile: 6'5 210, wide feet, quick guard.
Looking for some hoops shoes, like most of us. But my feet seem to have very particular tastes. I used to hoop exclusively in the Zoom Phenoms.. These are perfect for me. The traction(PERFECT), the feel, everything.. except the achilles area destroys mine.. But I found a work around). They had gotten a bit long in the tooth, and even via eBay.. I cant find this shoe in my size. so I tried a number of other kicks:
Kobes 5 and 6s, They just dont work for my foot type, The traction isnt there, they dont feel sound on me.. I just dont play well in them
Half Cents: TERRIBLE, heavy, just not good for ball
Jordan 6's: Good for about a week, then they got stretched, and the traction went super fast
Sharkleys: Thought they would bs similar to the phenoms, but they were just too heavy
Any suggestions for me? My most important criteria is traction.. even over looks I guess, plus I dont want to spend an astronomical amount, and not really crazy about the newer line of hoops shoes that everyone seems to rock.. hyperdunks, and lebrons etc.
Thanks!
