Shoe performance is all arbitrary. I know everybody knows this, but Foamposite’s weight is due to it’s construction, essentially the closest thing to a custom shoe as you can get (granted, after breaking ‘em in).

Bron Bron’s new kicks (VI) are hailed as the lightest in the line by Nike. Don’t look like Flywire is implemented (a la Hyperdunks), but probably less upper cushioning or a lighter synthetic. Or just no gimmicks (i.e. foamposite tech). That always seems to work.

How often you guys get a new pair of kicks? Ones that you actually play in. . .

@Michorizo — Nope. I can barely grow hair on the back of my hand, let alone the palm.
