These shoes are probably one of the most comfortable basketball shoes I've worn in a long while. Great traction indoors on a clean court with flexibility and stability. If you do get these go down half a size and you'll be good to go. Break in time is fast and it almost feels like your not wearing anything. I've got the Lunar Hyper Dunks and I thought those were amazing but the KD V brings it up another notch. You do lose some ventilation but if your not worried about that go ahead and grab a pair. I give it a 4 out 5 because it could use a little more ventilation but other than that no complaints.
Pros: breaks in easy, good traction, cool colors, comfortable
Cons: runs large

great fit but if you have wide feet i suggest you go a size up i am size 10.5 but with socks i had to get a size 11.5. the laces all the way up feel great. I am guard so i like low tops but i dont mind this high top. The back is low allows for great movement of the ankle. The curvature up of the two really feels great because it causes you to stay on your toes. The forefoot zoom is there but it will take time to break in like all shoes. The traction is decent on dirty floors but it just might take some time break in the traction. I thinks the dust is sticking too much. So just break them in longer. Also it has arch support which is noticeable once you step into the shoe. no ventilation got the easters sick colourway!!!! enjoy!
Pros: cool colors, durable, good ankle support, comfortable
Cons: runs narrow, not breathable, runs large

The shoes are okay except for the fact that there is no loop in the tongue to string the laces though therefore the tongue slides down while wearing. My son likes the shoe otherwise so I am considering sewing a loop in it myself but I would not get him another pair of shoes unless it had the loop in it already. We have purchased several paiur of shoes from Eastbay and they always had the loops pre-sewn so I assumed these would too. In fact I've never seen a pair of basketball shoes that didn't until now.
Pros: lightweight
Cons: tougue slides down due to no loop in tongue.

Finally decided to go with these KD V's. I love the KD IV's but was wearing them out. I miss the low top's versatility with the strap. But these shoes look so clean in this colorway. They are much lighter and dynamic than I thought they'd be. They feel more like a low top with a little extra ankle support. They play fast and move well. They are great deal at the price Nike has them for. I'm definitely pleased with and will continue to go first to the KD model shoes in the future. My only downfall is there is not much breath-ability. Otherwise this shoe performs well, is very light, and is great to play basketball in. I would definitely recommend it.
Pros: lightweight, cool colors, good traction, comfortable
Cons: not breathable

This is one of the best basketball shoes. It is super light, similar to the Lebron X. It has great ankle support. I did not buy this for balling though; this shoe right here was for style. Wear a nice pair jeans, polo to match and finish it off with these KD Vs and you have a receipe for style. I am an avid shoe collector and these are a def cop.
Pros: breaks in easy, lightweight, cool colors, durable, good ankle support, breathable, good traction, easy to clean, comfortable, stays clean a long time

I've been happy with the KD Vs only because the IVs were a bit too stiff. I loved the low top look also on the IVs but these KD Vs are just a nice touch also. They are 1/2 in size small so I went up make these a sure fit in comfort. Glad I was able to get these for the colorway as they are a nice easter shoe.
