I won't say more than 50% of the population plays indoors, but I might say, more than 50% of the people that pay the "premium" price for Nike performance shoes play indoors. From what I gather, a lot of people would not be willing to spend $100+ on a pair of shoes they are going to beat up outdoors. They will keep that mentality regardless of whether or not the XDR outsoles will last the summer months.Originally Posted by alan3un
is nike stupid or something? i don't understand how they only release XDR soles in Asia but not the US (or they're just less accessible). do they really think that more than 50% of the population plays indoor here?... i've given up on nike for durable outdoor ball shoes...
i wore the hyperfuse herringbone pattern out completely within 3~4 months and i played 2~4 times a week as well. i'm also 160lbs so i'm not that much heavier than you are. they are great shoes but if you're looking for long lasting shoes these aren't it.
i'm currently using the Air Jordan Evolution 85 because they're at the nike outlets now for around $90... they feel great on court with a nike air sole and phylon cushioning to help absorb some of the shock from the hard court. they've been holding up decently for the first week i've played in em but i'm not sure if they'll last me more than 4 months. the shoe could be a problem if your feet sweat a lot though.
I've been hearing good things about adidas ball shoes lasting longer outdoors maybe you can look into that.

hmm i type in size 9.5 or 10 and the prices sky rocket. under 50 are used ones or big sizes.Originally Posted by mastergrim8
^go on ebay, zoom soldier 3s are usually less than 50.
