Best Performance Basketball Sneakers You Should Have

So, although basketball sneakers may start to slow with sales as the basketball season coming to a close. Sneakers always have a constant market. Summer basketball leagues will be starting in a couple weeks and practices will begin and new pairs will be coming available.

The shoes that we will include in this article are all performance tested, athlete approved. These are all legit pairs and we are bringing you this article as help and authentication that sneakers are the right pairs and they have professional information backing them up.

For Quick Basketball Players

Nike Kobe 11

This model is known for the vibrant colors. This sneaker has a lot of breath-ability and has a lot of good comfort. The flyknit material is really the main puller of this model and that's what signs this shoe off. The cushioning is really noticeable and the lock down really keeps your foot secure and firm. However, traction sucks.

Pros: Cushioning, Lock Down.
Cons: Traction is inconsistent, Forefoot has some dead space issues in the toe area.

All Access Rating: 6 of 10.

2 BrandBlack J Crossover 2

The shoe is known for lot's of technology things built into it. It has Jet-Lon Cushion, Force Vector Support Plates, Knitted Upper and a diverse multi-way traction system. The shoe has a great deal of traction, fit and cushioning. However, there isn't a lot of durability and doesn't perform great outdoors. So this is a good indoor basketball sneaker where the majority of your playing should be done.

Pros: Good Traction, Nice Fit, Decent Cushioning
Cons: Less Durable, Poor Outdoor Shoe

All Access Rating: 7 of 10

Adidas D Lillard 2

We recently did a article over the Adidas D Lillard 2 "Easter" Colorway drop. This is a great basketball shoe. The Easter colorway however could be brought on court, but if I had the money I would make it my everyday pair. These shoes are really nice and they have a lot of good aspects to them. Cushioning, good fitting and great support is what is really strong in this shoe, There's just a lot of great stuff about this shoe.

Pros: Cushion, Fit, Support
Cons:  Runs .5 size larger, traction can sometimes get effected.

Under Armour Currry 2

This sneaker is just one of those perfect models. Personally, the All-Star colorway and the Surprise Party colorway are definitely the two best colorways on this sneaker. I know there are a few good ones but these two are the stand outs to me. This shoe comes off as light, They fit really well, however, I want to think that these run a half size smaller in the ASG Colorway. While the materials is usually a problem in this shoe, that's what makes these shoes such a great shoe. They feel really different from most shoes.

Pros: Traction, Cushion, Materials & Fit
Cons: Materials are slightly less durable

Air Jordan XX9 Low

This lower basketball shoe is a great shoe, don't be fooled. The sneaker has that secure, tight fit that allows you to know that your feet are protected while making all your great moves on the court. The traction usually holds up in these very well, however, reviews say that it can become inconsistent at a few times. The shoe builds you for quick, fast action on the court. The shoe is really well made as Jordan brand usually does a good job with making their shoes. They also have nice cushioning in them, so while you are protected, your also not just balling in bricks.

Pros: Fit. Good Materials (well made), Cushion
Cons: Traction inconsistency.


For Powerful Players

Nike Lebron Zoom Soldier 9 

Heel has that Zoom Air Technology along with the forefoot. The Mesh upper is really nice. Dynamic Flywire is a really good thing about this shoe. This shoe is just a really great sneaker that has a lot of good details with it. However, these shoes are difficult to put on besides all the given benefits.

Pros : Cushion, Support, Materials, Traction
Cons : Difficult To Put On

Jordan Superfly 4 

This shoe is just a really clean model and has a lot of pro aspects. The cushion is great in these and they have decent ventilation. These shoes allow for hours of playing time while feeling comfortable and your feet not overheating. They do have a durability issue as they can sometimes easily become beaten.

Pros: Cushion, Traction
Cons: Durability

Nike Lebron 13

The shoe has cushioning that makes it a really comfortable shoe to wear for a long time. The shoe has a characteristic that hasn't been seen in many shoes but these shoes have a good impact protection. Players doing a lot of rebounding and jumping may enjoy this aspect of the Lebron 13. However, feel confident with your moves as even with all the great benefits in it already, the traction is top notch in this sneaker as well. They fit securely and feel just right on your feet. Get used to wearing them and we are sure you will become hooked with the model. This is probably one of Lebron's best models yet and most popular model.

Pros: Cushion, Impact Protecting, Traction and Nice Fit
Cons: Stiff Materials, Can't replace laces.

Jordan Melo M11 

This shoe is a under rated one however, this shoe has all the aspects to be a performer on the court. With some great materials again by Jordan brand, know that this shoe is somewhat durable and will have a great feel. That gives this shoe a nice cushioning and has a nice secure fit. These shoes again are just a really nice model for your playing. However, this shoe doesn't easily ventilate so maybe a lighter colorway is more your game.

Pros: Cushion, Fit, Lockdown, Traction
Cons: Poor Ventilation.

The best cheaper basketball shoes will easily bring you a little bit of action while not costing as much as premier models. So let's look at our Deal Savers lineup.

Deal Savers

Adidas D Lillard 2

This shoe was mentioned earlier in our faster player lineup. This shoe is just really good and even as a everyday shoe these are really nice. They look great and once again have that premier peformance that is just really good and really nice.

Pros: Cushion, Fit, Support
Cons:  Runs .5 size larger, traction can sometimes get effected.

Nike Zoom Hyperrev 2016

While the shoe isn't bad looking in some colorways, especially the black/white colorway with the white splatter midsole design, boy these shoes can make for some really nice lookers. These shoes have a pretty good flexibility. They are hard to get on  your foot as the opening is sorta formed around the shoe and isn't just free like most openings. The mid strap across the shoe is also reported not to feel tight and can become loose during Game Play. However, they are really well made, have great traction, pretty nice cushion and they are durable!

Pros: Traction, Fit, Well Made, Nice Durability 
Cons: Hard to put on. Does feel loose without strap security.

Also look into the following three models

Adidas Crazy Light Boost 2016
Nike Zoom Hyper DF 2 
* Adidas Crazy Eights

All of the above shoes aren't too expensive, they usually have their own pros and cons however most of the time traction, fit and cushion will be the most common pros in all three models. The durability might be less in the Crazy Light Boost 2016 but all shoes have space differentiates in the toe region.
