Jordan Why Not Zero.6 Review
Pros:
Traction performs on clean courts
Sturdy materials
Cons:
Traction needs break-in time
Fits long
Performance of the Jordan Why Not Zero.6:
The Jordan Why Not Zer0.6 provides solid traction on clean courts, but dust can be an issue. The performance requires a break-in period, though.
Its cushioning is comfortable, and the forefoot Zoom unit is noticeable.
The materials create a supportive environment and help fortify the shoe. You feel sturdy and locked in.
The shoe is stable, and there are no lateral containment issues. However, some reviewers feel the extra space in the forefoot made them less secure.
Russell Westbrook's latest shoe is a solid choice for players who thrive on fluid up-and-down movement along the court.

The EVA foam midsole feels more doughy than Phylon but more firm than Cushlon. It feels comfortable under the heel, and the forefoot Zoom feels lively.

The Phylon midsole offers some springiness, but it will bottom out. The Zoom bag provides impact protection for the forefoot, though.

I like the Zoom unit under the forefoot, but it bulges up. There's not a lot of compression with the foam. The court feel is average.
