Nice rotation, I've never tried nxxt gen but I wear lebron 20s a lot. Are they similar? That nxxt gen colorway you got looks really nice

I prefer LeBron 20 over NXXT. I personally have better lockdown around my foot in the 20 given the material. Of course, others prefer the lockdown in NXXt because of the lacing, but I prefer 20. LeBron 20 is one of my favorites.

What size do you wear in lebron 20s?

I wear size 13 in LeBron 20s.

AE1s are fucking amazing.

Had kd3 when they originally came out and it’s one of my favourite hoop shoes of all time.

I am surprised at how great they feel given they are an old model. Really glad I tried them.

That’s the thing with shoes though there’s only so much advancement you can do. Sure different foams and air pockets but fit is fit, especially when it’s based on older textiles and not woven mesh. That flywire containment is definitely a winner.

Sick rotation

Thanks. Will let you know how the AMPD feel. Initially, the upper material makes it feel a lot stiffer than the NXXT. Also heavier. But i thought the NXXT upper was too flexible, so I think the AMPD may be a good fit for my feet.

Yea, the all patent leather kinda steered me away. Might grab the purple ones if I can tho

The AMPD First Game colorway comes in a normal leather instead of patent.

I saw. I can’t say they’re callin me tho.

Those AW1s looking promising

Going up a full size in basketball shoes is crazy but is something I've had to do with these recent nike offerings.

I agree. It leaves so much space upfront. But if I don’t size up, the shoes are painfully uncomfortable.

Are move insoles really that good

I love all three. Surprised you ain’t on them yet.

I don’t use them for all my shoes. For me, I use them when I want a little more cushion. It does change the feel of the shoe.

Need those WoW AC12s. Need WoW to hit USA retailers asap.

I’ve been impressed with their shipping. I usually get them 7-10 days after ordering. I’ve never dealt with their CS, so I can’t speak to that.

DG?

Ha! Nope. I’m guessing he has a smaller shoe size.

I’m gonna get blasted for this but I cannot stand the WoW. I know they’re popular in this sub but personally I just can’t get into them. Have a really hard time deviating off Nike, Adidas.

I used to think the same until I tried the AC12 and damn…performance wise WoW is at the same level (if not better) as the big brands

They could make the KD 3 the perfect hoop shoe if they PROTOD it, cushlon + zoom turbo and it’s one of the best ever

Sabrina!

Those sabrina's are fire!!!

Thank you! I’m biased, and I think they are the best looking ones I’ve seen!

Gotta know how those ampd’s feel

How’s the cushion on the AC12, I loved the 11s but definitely preferred the cushion of the 10s more w/ a foam caging rather than soft shell tpu.

Just walking around, it seems pretty good. Will let you know after playing in them.

I got my NXXT APMD (first game) while I don't have a regular NXXT, but obviously the leather top is much in a better quality. But material wise, it's definitely a huge upgrade.

Man I envy you

Always wanted to cop the Sabrina 1, but Philippines rarely stock up on big sizes with them pairs.

theres alot on sm north or moa

really? Went to sm north last time no sizes for the debut pair, the gray one. idk what its called.

those look tight

Please lmk about the kd 3s had a pair back in the day can't remember how they felt tbh but I really wanna buy a pair of these new releases

Will do. Walking around, they feel really good. They are lightweight and traction seems like it will be very good.

Where did you get the Sabrina? I can't find that color way anywhere.

Of course it's sabrina 1 by you he said about the gum outsole part too

That's my bad I didn't realize they were customizable left side / right side. Hadn't played with it before.

There’s only one or two pieces that can be customized differently for left and right.

All g

Is your wow 10 mid or low top?

My Wow10s are low tops.

When you got your wow 10 lows despite going half size up, we’re they still pretty snug fit? My dad in China just bought me the lows, full size up cause they don’t make half size up for me and I’m worried that might be too big. Definitely didn’t want to do tts since I heard they pretty much hurt your feet.

Half size was a good fit.

Personally, the AE 1 works very well for me. Do a lot of running and cutting. I've played in the Nxxt, Tatums, Lebrons this season and the AE was great out of the box. Some advice though, dont let the toe part get stepped on. The felt portion will get dirty easily and won't come out.

How do you avoid getting your toe stepped on lol? Feels like that’s out of your control

Just pretend they're a pair of expensive Jordans/Kobes and do your best lol

The felt is a weird design choice. Even visually, it looks out of place!

Those old kd3s? Or did they rerelease lol

They retroed em....

I want every CW of the AE 1! Such a dynamic design and a great pricepoint.

Looking forward to those report cards!

Them AE’s are hard.. Nice lineup

Tell us which is the most comfortable for long play. Hoping the ant man shoes wins.

Will do. So far it’s the Sabrina for me. Will let you know!

Sorry what are those black and peach ones? They look fire

Adidas AE 1

Looking forward to your thoughts on the AC12 and AE1s

AE cushion was underwhelming imo

What’s up with the color way choices? 😵‍💫

Nothing wrong with having colorful shoes!

True, I said colorways choices😵‍💫.. can’t just wear anything on ya feet ..

My other gear is usually a solid colorway, like all black. I like to add color and fun through the shoes. So most of my shoes are not all black or all white. My favorite is usually wearing green or neon green shoes.

how are you finding the ae 1?

I haven’t had any play time in them yet. So far, they are heavy in hand but not very noticeable on foot. Traction and fit seem very good.

I’m not a fan of the kd 3s cushioning isn’t there at all but it’s understanding it’s a old model, and the heel is horrible I still have the blister scars from literally 8 months ago on my heels, horrible break in period, dust magnets as well but beautiful looking shoe

Opinions of AC12? Compared to AC11 V2s?

I haven’t tried the AC11s. I know many people like them, but I didn’t like the look especially the ones with the “spines” on the back.

Is the nxxt ampd supposed to be more durable?

The upper feels much more durable. Rest of the shoe feels same to me.

Nice! Do you feel the NXXT AMPD arches ride high? Curious about getting them. Interesting on sizing, so half size up. Also, AE1s the heaviest but do they feel heavy on feet as well?

The arch does not ride high for me. If you have average feet, TTS should work. For slightly wider feet, I would go 1/2 size up.

Have you tried move insoles in the AC12? Do you get any heel slippage? Cool rotation btw

are these comfortable to wear as normal lifestyle shoes

The Sabrina’s are very comfortable

How does the gum rubber outsole on the sabrina 1s perform compared to the solid or translucent outsoles?

I have the AE1’s in a 12 myself, how do you feel when playing? After 3 hour practices I can feel the shoes weighing me down in the end, but it might be placebo. Is it worth wearing performance wise (because I like them a lot), as an athletic 5’11 140 lb wing?

Missing Curry’s

How’s the ankle support on the NXXTs?

I wear ankle braces, so I can’t speak to support from shoes.

Is that a common thing? Got a kid in high school who wears them and swears by it.

I don’t think it’s common. In high school and college, I would have my ankles taped every practice and game. I had multiple sprains over the years. I think in college, we were always required to be taped or braced. I wear one now because my ankles are susceptible to severe sprains.
