Our Top 5 Basketball Shoes of 2017/2018

Nike Kyrie 5

Needless to say, this shoe speaks for itself. Kyrie Irving, a.k.a “Uncle Drew” has the best handles in the league. Almost unstoppable, he is known as one of the hardest to guard point guards due to his insane crossovers and ability to finish around the rim. It’s no wonder he released the third edition of his shoe less than a year after releasing his second one.

 

Featuring Nike Flywire Technology that offers amazing support while minimizing weight. This can help your foot to not slip while running, coupled with the traction pods underneath the shoe that can help with stability when using explosive moves and crafty footwork.

Nike Lebron XIV

It’s safe to say LeBron James must be doing something right for releasing his 14th shoe. The best player in the league also has one of the best shoes in the league. Featuring Hex Zoom Air, which gives you that extra bounce when going up and extra impact protection when landing.

Not to mention Nike Flywire Technology for increased durability and breath-ability that makes this shoe perfect for a larger player that still wants to have quick movement and have good flexibility.

Under Armour Curry 3

The 2016 MVP and also one of the best scorers in the league has to have one of the best shoes in the league. He can shoot from almost anywhere and wont back down from a defender regardless of his size. Stephen Curry’s third overall shoe is all about comfort. Known to be one of the lightest shoes for basketball, they feature Under Armour’s unique Threadborne technology that helps with breathability by being lightweight and supportive. This shoe is not made entirely for explosive jumping, but is durable when it comes to being fast and Charged Cushioning for staying comfortable.
