Adidas Exhibit B Mid

At a listed 13.4 oz, the Exhibit B Mid is lighter than 43 of the other 66 performance shoes in our database and heavier than 17 (6 other models list the same weight). The average across all 67 performance shoes is 13.8 oz, so it runs 0.4 oz lighter than average. For reference, the lightest is the Anta KT 9 (12.4 oz) and the heaviest is the Nike GT Hustle 3 (15.8 oz).

Its 8 mm heel-to-toe drop is the most common figure in this group — 54 of 67 performance shoes list 8 mm. Drops across the group only run from 7 to 10 mm, so drop is a smaller differentiator than weight or cut height.

It is one of 40 mid-cut models among the 67 performance shoes we track, and it sits in the budget price band (set from manufacturer MSRP), which 13 other models share.

Like 53 other performance shoes, it is rated for indoor courts; 13 in the group carry an outdoor rating.

Cushioning is listed as Lightstrike, which puts it in our Lightstrike (9 shoes in the database) cushioning hub; 1 other shoe uses exactly the same listed setup.

Going by its spec profile, we classify the Exhibit B Mid for shooting guards and small forwards with a perimeter shooting game. You can compare it against every shoe we file for that role in Best Basketball Shoes for Shooting Guards and Best Basketball Shoes for Small Forwards.

The mid cut is the middle ground between ankle coverage and freedom of movement — the most common choice in the database.

It is rated for indoor courts. If most of your games are on asphalt or concrete, the closest outdoor-rated performance shoes on spec are the Adidas OwnTheGame 3 and Nike Precision 7. Width is listed as standard; if you need more toe-box room, see the wide-feet hub.
