ANTA KT 2 Review
Pros:
Great Traction
Very comfortable
Cons:
Aesthetics
Performance of the ANTA KT 2:
Klay Thompson's second signature sneaker is a pleasant surprise. The material and cushioning are very soft and comfortable. Quick cuts and crossovers are no problem thanks to the tacky traction pattern. If you don't care about brand recognition and want to try out a chinese shoe, then this is the way to go. A very well-performing alrounder for an affordable price.

Tacky traction, much-improved cushion and very comfortable. The KT2 has enough of everything to make them a great option on-court, and it comes in at a reasonable price as well.

It’s a combination of the great herringbone pattern and a really sound rubber compound.

Foam pads in the forefoot and heel combined with an EVA midsole. The cushioning is soft and comfortable but still offers enough responsiveness.

Midfoot shank, outrigger, heel counter and great containment of the upper do a solid job.

Large outrigger is great, but there is no additional ankle support from the higher cut.

Support and lockdown are solid and get the job done, but there is nothing special.
