Yeah, I unlaced after the 2nd game, rested for like 10, and felt brand new.
Remembering I felt this on my jordan 31 lows, too. But never in my 36s or jordan 19s. Definitely not giving up on lebrons yet but might bring my 36s next time as backup
Always a good idea to bring a backup pair when you are hooping in a new pair of shoes! I also bring extra socks for that matter. I noticed I tend to get blisters if I play a very long time and the socks get too sweaty.
