I’ve actually expected the Asics Nova Surge low to be on this list, but not that high to be honest. I haven’t tried them but I think they would deserve it. Happy to not only see brand like Nike, Jordan, Puma,… in some videos. A very good list imo.

Thanks man! Yeah Adidas has a very interesting lineup coming up design wise. We’ll see about the KD 16, tech downgrade would be disappointing for sure… But sometimes they always turn out to be different from expectations lol

I'm partial to the Curry 10. Flow is a polarizing technology, since it tends to be on the firmer side, but it works for me. The Curry 10 and really every Curry since the 8 has been more of a running/court shoe hybrid, which is the primary reason I like them.
