ecue double stack is unique though, there is ONE layer in the insoles, and ONE in the midsole, as opposed to the jordans where it's literally one stackedon top of another

Putting zoom insoles from one shoe into another shoe to get better performance can be done with great success or abject failure. I've found thin heel only zoom insoles (many Nike SBs, Jordan 2009) can be used with great success to create double stack heel zoom in many Nike basketball shoes. I've done this a few times and it's great. My Zoom Soldier 3s are running Jordan 2009 insoles and it's great. Caution is needed when trying to put full length zoom insoles into shoes that already have zoom in the forefoot. You may get nice double stack heel zoom, but double stack forefoot zoom is AWFUL - it feels weird, screws up court feel, and impedes responsiveness. Also, caution is needed when moving around the ultra-thick comfy zoom insoles of Flighposites (1, 2, and 3s), Lebron IVs, GP IVs, and the like. These insoles have great cushioning, but are so think they don't easily fit in other shoes and they have forefoot zoom cushioning that can cause problems as mentioned above. These insoles do swap nicely between these specific shoes because FP1s with Lebron IV insoles are amazing. Just some insight from someone has been mixing and matching parts for a few years trying to tune my basketball shoes for optimum performance...

To me they are one of the most if not the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. But one question...
Are you sure they have double stacked zoom? If so is it built into the shoe and not in the liner? Because the liner is very thin.

Lebron II is max zoom. Great cushioning set up. Unfortunately it has been known to lose pressure over time and start bottoming out on people...

This runs in concert with the information on NikeStore's site:

I wonder if they are taking the insole out of the consideration here; meaning the insole on the FP Lite has zoom or possibly has nothing and forefoot cushioning is Phylon only. I wish Nike was more clear about this.

i read the review a while ago and i'm not convinced solely on that reviewer's word.
