This pair of shoes has a lot of foam padding, and the heel counter is quite stiff, providing strong support. The sizing runs small, so it's recommended to go half a size or a full size up when purchasing. Personally, I think the design looks really cool. The front part of the shoe features a small Zoom Air unit, which feels great for those who use the forefoot. However, it might feel a bit odd for those who aren't used to it. After breaking in the midsole material, the Zoom Air feels even better. The rubber outsole is very durable and can handle concrete courts without any issues. The downside is that the shoes aren't very breathable, so they might feel a bit hot during summer. Overall, they offer great value and are perfect for students.
