Li-Ning Wade 808 2 Ultra V2 Review

Pros:
Outstanding traction
Soft and light cushioning
Cons:
The materials could be more comfortable

Performance of the Li-Ning Wade 808 2 Ultra V2:

The traction of the Ultra V2 is fantastic. It plays well on all surfaces. The solid rubber options are top-notch. Reviewers suggest avoiding the translucent outsoles. The drop-in midsole is reminiscent of the Kobe line. It feels soft and comfortable while remaining lightweight. A revamped heel and ankle section improves the support and lockdown of the Ultra version. Reviewers say the materials are light and perform well, but they also mention the comfort could be better. The Li-Ning Wade 808 2 Ultra V2 is an impressive performance model. The traction excels, and the Boom drop-in midsole works.

The traction provides an amazing bite. It grips all types of surfaces. Just don't get a translucent outsole.
 More details
The traction is my favourite aspect of the shoe. It's thick and multi-directional. This traction pattern handled every court I played on.

The materials conform to your foot well. It's thin and breathable too. The added Dynamic Shell feels great.
 More details
The materials are my least favourite part of the shoe. They're light and breathable but could be comfier. The ankle collar and back of the shoe feels better on the Ultra, though.
