mickz is 100% correct, if you want all around, don't go for the Shox. They are basically made for you to run forward on a very flat surface, and forget about any major lateral movement in these shoes because any type of unevenness in the ground you risk rolling your foot and spraining an ankle because of the stiff plastic shox soles in the rear. In theory that large flat surface should plant you to the ground more, but it doesn't work like that at all.
They are the absolute worst shoes you can wear for basketball, that flat surface of the shox in the back of the shoe is a hazard and you when you try to move laterally you will feel the shox working against you. I wear shox around the house sometimes, and I roll my ankles just walking around especially when I'm in the park on uneven grass and ground.
try these, they are a low cut version of the Nike Hyperdunk series and these shoes are some of the lightest ball shoes ever made, now the lowcut version offers all around performance. I have a few Hyperdunks I use for basketball also a few Hyperize... best sport shoes I ever owned
Kobe approves, good enough for me
