Shoes like the Nike Kobe 8 (or 9), or the Puma Clyde All-Pro are both in the same class, but I struggle to say they’re better.
Going from 100 to 0 and back to 100 has never been easier. I honestly struggle to think of a shoe that holds you in place better. Like I just mentioned, this shoe was built from the ground up to compliment the euro-step, which means the lateral support is other worldly. I would just recommend taking that money and buying a different shoe, one that fits wider to begin with. If you go up that extra size to fit the width, you start having too much space in the toe/heel and then you start losing the lockdown the shoe is trying to give you. After this, the Zoom Freak 2 and Zoom Freak 3 hit the market. The shoe was built to be king of the euro-step, quick stops and side-to-side movement. In June 2019, he introduced his first trademark shoe, the Zoom Freak 1. Reason being, you’re basically paying the CAD$165 (AUD$170) for the lateral support, and nothing else.

You could go up half a size if you’re determined to buy this shoe, but I honestly wouldn’t recommend it if you’re paying full price. The reason is lateral stability, which this shoe has in spades, but it will be a tough job for wide-footers to get in.
The width is decent in the toe box, a comfortable amount of space, but incredibly narrow in the mid-foot.

To the point that the laces were almost too short to tie up. That being said, I would not recommend a translucent outsole for outdoor play such as the “Black Panther” colourway (Nike calls it Dusty Amethyst, but COME ON, it’s Black Panther all the way!).įor me, the Zoom Freak 2 fit better than almost anything. For months on end it kept doing its thing, when other Nike offerings tend to last hours, weeks at best. My pair of the “Naija” colourway came complete with a solid black rubber outsole, and it held up beautifully outdoors. Nike has ignored outdoor play as of late, and the durability across the entire line can only be described as abysmal. Dusty courts may require a wipe every now and then, but even in the dustiest setting they held up for me. Every quick stop, change of direction and spin move comes with a confidence only provided by footwear that grips perfectly every time, allowing you the benefit of not having to think about it. No matter what you’re doing, the bite is consistent. All of these shoes have a real nice grip in their own right, so perhaps the Freak 2 would as well! The nubs reminded me of the Nike Kyrie Low 2 and the Jordan Why Not Zer0.3 while the circular pattern took me back to the Air Force 1 and Jordan 1.

The Nike Zoom Freak 2 will debut in the “Green/White Naija” colorway. The pairing, Nike said, is to help the Greek Freak explode with his movements and support him through the force he generates driving to the rim. The look is built with Zoom Air cushioning in the forefoot, which is paired with a soft and lightweight foam in the heel. Also, it features a reinforced forefoot outrigger on the lateral side near the pinky toe to fortify a high-wear area of the shoe and provide more ground contact. This move, according to Nike, will keep him grounded as he drives off of his forefoot and safe as he lands in an abnormal way on his heel. To ensure Antetokounmpo’s on-court needs were met, Nike built the shoe with a decoupled midsole, which is separated into two sections and also features a supportive shank. “What’s different about his movements is that he’s causing so much pressure when he hits those steps, like the Eurostep, that we need to help propel him and contain him further near the toe.” “What Giannis does in space is directly connected to his body proportions,” Nike Basketball Senior Creative Director Ross Klein said in a statement. The pairing of these abilities is what makes the baller’s Eurostep move almost unbeatable. Images of the Billie Eilish x Nike Air Force Collab Have Emerged
