ankle support look crap, traction look crap, and cushioning look crap...
Man I never understand how people are so sure about things like these off the bat, before wearing them.... before they come out even! Ankelsupport can mean a lot of things, it doesn't need to have laces up to your knee cap to have good ankle support, a lot of people complained about the 20.5.5cause the fat Zoom made them feel unstable, and it felt like it was easier to roll an ankle. The And 1 Edge and Zoom BB both have great ankle support, and theylook like tissue paper around the ankle!
Traction is a good part the sort of rubber you use as well as the design, just cause it looks like there isnt much touching the floor doesn't mean it wontbe good traction.
And cushioning...? Ok, yeah, you cant see any, but Im assuming its got Zoom bag, so you can never see them. If Zoom BB have enough cushioning for Chris Wilcoxand Illgauskus, I'm sure this will have enough cushioning...
Ok, chyeah, that was a rant, but each time a new shoe is up seems like someone already knows how it performs before they wear it. Its like looking at a GrandNational and being like "Car looks boxy, and slow, just another sedan" before you drive it. Its whats under the hood that counts man!
