I used to think lows were all that for bball but I haven't balled in lows since the Nike Air Worm Ndestrukt did a job n my left ankle a few years ago. I dont buy this notion that lows are just as "safe" as mid cut shoes, if your gonna roll your ankle in mids and lows your injury in mids will likely be less severe (without taping)
Ive balled in the KD IVs they they are too low for my liking, the VI lookin like a glorified soccer shoe wont offer much ankle support compared to the KD V which was a solid performer.
