adidas Harden Vol 3 Black/Blue/Grey Basketball Shoes (G26811)

Product Information

Surprisingly, I loved the looks of the Harden 3 (black cw) and went for it but still hasn’t played in them. Responsive Boost midsole cushioning means the more energy you give, the more you get and forefoot lockdown support is delivered through an integrated synthetic overlay and webbing system.

How do these compare, if you can remember, to the Crazylight Boost 2016 which you had (and I agree) as one of the best low tops, and one of your best of 2016. Half a size down would have really helped the fit for me but my feet are too flat and fat and I had a lot of arch pain with half size down in the V1. Sadly I thought it was Adidas quality control but then upon closer inspection I knew we had fakes on our hands. When I'm playing the thing feels like an extension of my foot, like I was born with a pair of hardens on my feet. I’d like the top eyelet a touch higher or further back with flaps that come over the ankle like the CLB or every Kobe.

New with box: A brand-new, unused, unworn and undamaged item in its original packaging (such as the . Feels good on my feet but I was getting serious arch pain when playing, and that was after 3-4 days of playing in them so they should be broken in. It sounds like you have a foot problem that should be looked at by a doctor if you have that much pain. Although its not unstable, the cushion is pretty soft so if you don't like that feeling boost gives you maybe try it on?

same narrow/snug fit and similar bouncy forefoot cushioning (Harden’s kinda feel zoom-like) and both feel pretty flexible.I’m feeling more De’Aaron Fox than Ray Felton on the court these days and that has me pulling out foot rockets like the Curry 2 and 4 (which is the new king in my rotation) while shoes like the Lebron 16 make me feel like I love wasting money (boy do I feel slow in them). If you liked or loved the V2, you probably don’t need to switch unless you want a little better traction. My last shoes are very old and broken down, but nike used to make a full length cushion that was low to the ground and had a wider forefoot area. Out of all the shoes that released this past year I think the 2’s are my favorite low and they just might be my favorite performer overall I thought they were that good.

Everything feels better/tighter than the v1 out of the box which should help the shoe be a little more adaptable to different foot shapes.Stability is excellent on the V3 with a lower ride than the v2 with a nice wide flat outsole like the V2. It's not unstable, because it's a little more dense than the boost used in lifestyle shoes, so it's firmer and bouncier, I love it. One of the best things about the shoe is how low to the ground your foot is, you have amazing court feel and yet the boost is so nice that you don't feel any lack of cushion. I’d also advise doing some PT for that jumpers knee (check out athletic truth group and the pre hav guys on IG I really like their exercises). for 2-3 years now, I've pretty much worn the shoe down to the bone, it's not really even wearable anymore lol so here is my review.
