How to choose within this hub

Every shoe here uses Cushlon somewhere in its midsole, but the listed setups differ: Cushlon 3.0 + Zoom Air (3), Zoom Air + Cushlon 3.0 (1), Zoom Air + Cushlon (1), Zoom Air Strobel + Cushlon 3.0 (1), Cushlon 3.0 (1). The other components, the shoe's weight and its cut height shape the overall feel as much as the headline cushioning, so compare those too. In this hub the 2 low-cut models average 12.8 oz against 14.9 oz for the 5 mid and high cuts, so the low-tops are the lighter group.

By our position classification these models cover power forwards (5), centers (2), point guards (2), small forwards (1).

Nothing here is outdoor-rated, so if you play mostly on asphalt, pair this hub with the outdoor-rated shoes in the main database.
