These shoes are fantastic but I am not surprised as I have been buying basketball shoes from Chinese manufacturers for several years and they surpass Nike, UA and Adidas in many respects. Comfortable, great padding, great grip and breathability. Relatively light and good looking, another area where the Chinese beat others. They seem to be more open and creative in their design, and their shoes actually work for almost all basketball players. Too often you have to wait a long time for Nike, UA or Adidas to release a shoe that excels in every category.
