Nike Kobe VII - Men's
The Nike Zoom Kobe VII basketball shoe features a highly durable, cast polyurethane shell upper that provides durability and a performance fit. Mesh placed under the shell adds ventilation and a graphic pattern that tells the predator story. Next-generation Flywire technology offers lightweight support and lockdown. 3D heel clip made of injected TPU is molded closer to the midfoot to enhance stability and add a lockdown fit. Attack Fast Phylon™ drop-in midsole and Nike Zoom™ units in the heel and forefoot deliver a lightweight, responsive ride that's built for speed. Solid rubber outsole with triangular traction pattern and strategically placed, high-wrapping lateral outriggers provide lateral stability and performance-enhancing grip in a lightweight form. Flex grooves allow the shoe to move naturally with the foot for enhanced articulation and flexibility. Wt. 13.6 oz.

I bought this shoe for my AAU team. The shoe is very light and comfortable. The problem is that they do not break in easily and that they crease very easily. Other than that, it was an all around good shoe.
Pros: good traction, lightweight, easy to clean, durable
Cons: creases easily, does not break in quickly

Sneakers are very comfy, light, stylish, and they feel pretty locked-in for low-ankle support basketball sneakers. Cons are they take a bit to break in, the grip is not the greatest (compared to Adidas Promodel or 2011 Hyperfuse), and the shoes feel a little narrow/tight, though they are pretty accurate/true to size.
Pros: lightweight, comfortable
Cons: runs narrow, creases easily, not breathable, does not break in quickly

If you wear the dri-fit socks, single or double layer; you probably want to go 1/2 size up.

This shoe seems to be made simply to look good, which is a shame, because after about 2 or 3 high level practices, the colors wore off. This disappointed me. They also clunk when you run, and my coach has yelled at me to stop making that noise when I run every time I've worn them. They're a cool idea, but it just didn't work out well. If you don't wear them for sports use, you play at a high enough level that you could play in Retro's and go off (so it doesn't matter how good the shoe is), or you don't care about how the shoe wears down, then these are for you. Otherwise, no.
Pros: cool colors, runs true to size, good traction, stays clean a long time, looks cool
Cons: creases easily, not breathable, non-durable
