Our verdict

The Court Legacy shows what a clean, minimalist, and sleek shoe should look like. Its versatile style matched pretty much everything we had in our wardrobe, and its soft aesthetics were perfect for many different situations. We walked around town, went out for lunch, and ran errands in this shoe, and thanks to its lightweight and comfortable structure our legs felt as fresh as a daisy. The best part of it all is that you can get this Nike for only 60 dollars! Just be careful if you suffer from any foot conditions, the Court Legacy doesn't offer any cushioning or arch support whatsoever.

Who should NOT buy

If you suffer from any foot conditions, we strongly advise you to go for a different shoe. The nike air jordan chicago 10 2012 doesn't have a midsole, and it lacks the arch support you might need. There are other brands that have sneakers that focus more on support, such as New Balance.

If you're looking for a super comfortable and durable pair with the same aesthetics, the Vans Old Skool might just be your cup of tea! If you came here looking for a leather shoe, don't worry, we got you covered! The Adidas Superstar nike shox size 5 1 2 commentary.

Just in case you want to keep it low-budget and these recommendations aren't right up your alley, we believe you should have a look at our most affordable sneakers.

Cushioning

Heel stack

At 19.6 mm, this shoe's heel stack is way lower than average.

nike air jordan chicago 10 2012 Heel stack_2

This translates into a better ground feel, which increases the stability levels of this Nike pair overall. After all, it doesn't actually have a midsole, which makes a huge difference regarding heel stack!

Insole thickness

Even though the Court Legacy's insole is thinner than average at 3.9 mm, we were pretty grateful it was not thinner than that.

nike air jordan chicago 10 2012 Insole thickness_1

This small piece had to burden the whole weight of the underfoot comfort on its own shoulders. And it did it pretty okay!

Yeah, we can't say it's a plush shoe. But sometimes people tend to associate plushness with comfort, as if it was the only factor that played an important role! During our wear tests, we felt we could walk for hours in this shoe. It might not be the best to explore a new city (walking shoes might work better for that), but you'll definitely be able to show off its trendy style with no problems during a night out with friends.

As a minimalist tennis shoe with a slim profile, the nike air jordan chicago 10 2012 is expected to have a snug fit.

Measuring the shoe's gel mold with a caliper, we got 88.7 mm in its widest part. This is narrower than the average but still within the medium-width range. Just be prepared for a close-fitting experience.

Stability

Lateral stability test

The low profile of the Court Legacy makes it a pretty stable shoe.

If we don't take into account specific stability features, the closer your feet are to the floor when you put on a shoe, the more stable it is! In this case, the absence of a midsole and the thin insole and outsole are clear evidence of such.

nike air jordan chicago 10 2012_outdoor_016

We can summarize our experience using just one word: confidence! The close-to-the-ground structure of this shoe made us feel confident in every step, as we felt pretty stable. Additionally, its clean and trendy design that matched most of our wardrobe gave us that self-trust boost that we love so much!

Torsional rigidity

Right in time for the Olympic Games, we might have a new gymnast! The Court Legacy bent as easily in our hands as it did in our feet.

Just look at that! No resistance whatsoever! This allowed our feet to move comfortably, and we could also happily say good-bye to any kind of painful break-in period. Consequently, we gave this shoe a wonderful 1/5 on our torsional rigidity test.

Heel counter stiffness

After seeing how pliable this shoe is overall, we did expect its heel counter to match Shannon Miller's flexibility levels. It bent easily alongside our feet. It did not rub us the wrong way or hurt our Achilles, which we always celebrate!

All in all, the Court Legacy got a 1/5 on our heel counter stiffness test, which is the lowest result.

This also helps a lot with the fact that it doesn't have a midsole. Even though we can't say this shoe is plush, its pliable nature makes it fun and nice to wear. And don't get us started with its style. Trendy, trendy, and trendy again!

Weight

The sleek appearance of this shoe reflects its weight perfectly. How light it felt on our feet when we walked around town or when we had to run some errands is one of our favorite aspects of the Court Legacy. It's just like a feather!

nike air jordan chicago 10 2012 Weight_1

At 10.1 oz/286.0g, this pair is a wonderful 40% lighter than average. This translates into easy and happy strides, as your feet won't get tired as fast as they would with some heavier sneakers! Trust us, we verify our lab results with our wear tests and vice-versa!

Later on, when we got to the lab, we cut the shoe in half to see what it was hiding. Then we checked the upper, and its lightweight nature became totally clear to us. There's no padding at all!

Breathability

The fully covered canvas upper of this shoe deceived us at first glance... but no one can fool our smoke machine! We grabbed the Court Legacy and started pumping up smoke, check it out!

The smoke came out pretty easily we'd say. Also, compared to the Nike Blazer Mid 77, which has a similar build if we judge it just by looks, the Court Legacy performed way better! We decided to give it an average result of 3/5 in our breathability test, which is not bad at all!

The material lets our light shine... even if it's just a little bit. We can't say it has ventilation holes, though, as the light doesn't go all the way through. But it's not like the canvas is incredibly thin either! We believe this combination will bring a great mix of breathability and durability.

Durability

Toebox durability

Even though the Court Legacy's structure reminds us of Converse's sneakers, it doesn't have a rubber layer in the toebox to protect it. To check its durability, we grabbed our Dremel and started drilling our way in.

After 4 seconds of attack at 5K RPM and 3.2N of force, we could see the toebox didn't have a full-on hole. It did have some damage, though; a little bit more than what we'd consider just a scratch.

nike air jordan chicago 10 2012 Toebox durability_2

As you can see in the picture, the tool managed to get to the very final layer at the top of the mess it created. Yet it couldn't make its way through!

We decided to give it a 3/5 in our toebox durability test. As we predicted, the Court Legacy shows a nice combination of average breathability and durability!

nike air jordan chicago 10 2012 green nike air force 1 wedges 2017_2

There's a little bit of a mess back there, yeah. But, as you can see, the heel did pretty well despite being thin and unpadded, so we gave it a 3/5 on our heel padding durability test.

Outsole hardness

When we grabbed our durometer to check this shoe's outsole hardness and it showed 87.5 HC, we couldn't help but nod.

nike court legacy outsole hardness 1 21788839 main

As we'll see later on, this shoe doesn't have a midsole, which explains why we didn't feel it super soft underfoot. Its outsole is also harder than average, but don't worry, this doesn't mean the shoe is uncomfortable! In fact, we did have a great time walking around town with it.

Outsole durability

Our Dremel's last battle against the Court Legacy is about to start, and we can't wait to see it!

This time at 10K RPM and 3.2N of force, the tool was ready to give its all in a duel that lasted 22 seconds. We measured the damages using a tread gauge, and it returned 1.3 mm.

nike court legacy outsole durability 2 21788837 main

The dent is 23% deeper than average, which caught us by surprise, to be honest. The Court Legacy has a harder-than-average outsole, we did expect a higher level of durability regarding the material used.

Misc

nike vintage lunar racer shoes clearance 2017 | Grip / Traction

With the classic herringbone pattern that follows Nike Blazer shoes tradition, the Court Legacy showed standard traction levels on urban surfaces.

It's not the best pair for wet surfaces, that's for sure. But overall, we can't complain about its grip!

Tongue padding

The Court Legacy has broken a record in our lab data: it holds the thinnest tongue so far!

nike air jordan chicago 10 2012 Tongue padding_1

At 0.7 mm, our caliper claws look like they're just touching each other. When we saw how minimal this shoe's tongue was, we decided not to tie its laces too tight... no lace bite, please and thank you!

nike court legacy outdoor 014 21788881 main

Even though this meant this Nike's tongue would dance around a little bit, we understand the brand's strategy to go minimalist and as lightweight as possible. It looks like the brand was also aware of this, that's why it decided to add a little lace loop to hold the laces in place.

Removable insole

This shoe has a removable insole, which means you can use your own orthotics if needed.

Nevertheless, after all the tests the Court Legacy has gone through, we do want to give you a couple of warnings:

  • Don't forget there's a lot of this shoe's overall comfort levels that depend on the insole! If you go for a thinner one, you might regret it.
  • It's not a wide model. You can see it just by looking at it, but remember the kids already feels quite tight. If you go for an extra thick insole, your feet might run out of space.
