Review on 🏸 Top-Performing Adidas Barricade Racquetball: White Black Edition by Daryl Barton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ridiculously High Heel

I've been a Barricade fan for years and I was sad when it disappeared. When it was announced I was ecstatic! Unfortunately, this show doesn't live up to Barricade's name and legacy. Getting your foot in and out with the new asymmetrical lacing system is just awkward (not to mention the loops don't last as long, but who knows). One day my feet actually felt quite comfortable. The "only" problem was that both of my heels started bleeding after an incredibly short time of wearing them. Comparing them to the Asics Gel Res running shoes, I noticed that the heel was 1) incredibly high and 2) incredibly stiff. Even with socks, my skin didn't stand a chance against these seemingly razor-sharp shoes. To be honest I have no idea how anyone can play them. So disappointed in Adidas and hopefully Revain will stop selling them when enough people have the same issue. But many thanks to the Revain customer service team who understood my issue and sent me quick return instructions!
