Traction
Non-multidirectional pattern with thin indoor rubber. Excellent grip on clean courts but traction degrades outdoors.

Decent-sized forefoot Zoom Air bag with low-profile setup. Very responsive and provides exceptional court feel.

Materials
Mixed synthetic upper reported as a downgrade from Jumpman 2020. Comfortable and functional but not premium.

Internal heel counter provides basic containment and stability. Serviceable for quick guards but not ultra supportive.

The forefoot cushioning makes this a great shoe for guards, but allows it to be versatile enough for bigs that like to use their quickness. If price isn't an issue, it's a really good shoe.

I recently purchased the XDR (wider last) version of this shoe and I couldn’t be more happier, I went true to size and the fit is awesome! Almost like it was made for my foot!
If you’re On the narrow side I’d go down half a size(in the xdr version) and true to size (in the standard version)
Traction is very strong and dependable
Cushion is very nice and responsive
Court feel is amazing
Fit is perfect for wide feet!

It was actually very good, i felt like they boosted my agility and my bounce looked better. My foot fell asleep after playing for some time because it's so narrow.

The traction on these is almost as good as on the Jordan 34. The only difference is that the traction of the 34s was multidirectional.

There is a decent-sized forefoot Zoom Air bag that provides an unreal amount of court feel.

The internal heel counter isn't the best, but it gets the job done.

I sized down half a size because of the wider last in the Performance Fit version of the shoe but wasn't able to test the Standard fit version.
