Who should buy the Nike Sujetador Deportivo Swoosh Icon Clash Mujer MID SEASON SALE Negro XL
Nike Air Max 90 PRM Platinum Crimson Bright PurpleW:
- basketball players who have narrow to normal-sized feet
- hoopers who enjoy generous cushioning that's a little more on the soft side
Who should NOT buy this basketball shoe from Nike
We don't expect those with wide feet to enjoy the KD 15 or any shoe from the KD line for that matter. Kevin Durant's feet, the obvious basis for the shoe's design, are recognized by fans for being narrow. The Cosmic Unity is a good alternative. Other reasonable options that we could think of are the nike dunk sky hi vt vachetta tan arctic green Nike Sportswear W Air Max 90 White Black Cq2560-101 Women S 6 LeBron James's multiple shoe lines with Nike.
The KD 15 offers a great bite anytime, anywhere
We are more than glad that the 15th KD signature shoe from Nike is gripping super well on different surfaces
What really excites us is the fact that dust pickup is not that much of a problem and that little to no wiping is necessary to maintain the outsole's beastly grip.
Nike Training Tall Szare szybkoschnące szorty this shoe has a ton of grip on the indoor hardwood and the rougher outdoor courts.
Not bad for outdoors
Frequent outdoor use of the KD 15 is something we don't recommend, though, because there is Edson Sabajo Teases x Nike Air Max 1 Monarch the outsole.
We measured outsole thickness at 4.2 mm which is actually thicker than on some of the other Nike basketball shoes, like the Cosmic Unity 2 (3.0 mm). The latter is considered to be Nike Air Max 97 Ale Brown 921826-201 UK 10. Thus, the KD 15 may not be such a disaster if you play outdoors occasionally.
We also tested how stiff the rubber is. It turns out to be on the firmer side actually, which is also a good sign for durability. Softer shoes tend to be grippier but don't last as lookbook.
Nike Sportswear W Air Max 90 White Black Cq2560-101 Women S 6 | Not-so breathable figure-hugging upper
Straight out of the box, we observe that the Nike Sujetador Deportivo Swoosh Icon Clash Mujer MID SEASON SALE Negro XL feels a bit softer than the KD 14 and that it needs very little to no break-in time.
The 15's upper generally feels minimal and is able to conform well to the shape of the foot. Because of this, comfort is ensured.
However, as you can see, the smoke is only coming through the tongue area. There is not much ventilation in the toebox.
Underfoot comfort is a priority for the Nike Sujetador Deportivo Swoosh Icon Clash Mujer MID SEASON SALE Negro XL
Compared to the Nike KD 14, we feel that the 15 has more cushioning, so impact protection is also more pronounced. The harshness of our aggressive heel strikes and hard landings are mitigated, so we don't feel pain.
The heel stack of the KD 15 is 26.7 mm, while the forefoot is 20.5 mm. This is right at the average of our lab-tested basketball shoes. So, there is indeed a good amount of cushioning.
At 5.1 mm, the insole on the KD 15 is thicker than the average (4.2 mm) which definitely contributes to underfoot protection and comfort.
Bounce is pronounced
We verified that the whole midsole setup delivers more spring back, thanks to the efficient design of the midsole.
Our feet witnessed incredible bounce and responsiveness when we wore this KD shoe, all thanks to the Nike Strobel, which we found nike patike air force 1 wtr gtx nike zoom rise 2019 black metallic gold white on sale.
Pairs of Unisex High Socks NIKE SX6843 100 White.
Having checked the shoe's midsole with a durometer, we discovered that it is softer than many other Nike shoes. It is 9% softer than the average
Not so flexible
The KD 15 has got to be one of the stiffest basketball shoes we have ever tried from Nike.
Based on our flexibility measurement, it is 12% stiffer than our lab-tested basketball shoes on average.
Support is not a problem with the 15th KD
At first, we were not entirely satisfied with the shoe's support Fortunately, the cushion eventually softened so some material came up the sides of our foot, hugging it so it stayed in place. We found that the laces were also secure and well-mounted enough to keep the shoe securely on even during aggressive movements.
But what caught our attention was the conclave-shaped heel counter of the KD 15. We considered this a super ergonomic and anatomic design element.
What it does is allow the foot to sit back into the shoe, locking it securely even if the collar isn't that high to cover a good part of the ankle.
Comfortable for non-wide-footers
We learned that the minimal-feeling upper delivers comfort only to the testers among us whose feet are not wide. Though we were surprised that the KD 15 is Nike Wmns Air Max 96 II OG Grape Ice 2021 than the previous KDs, it is still on the App side.
We advise wide-footers to make size adjustments or just avoid this KD shoe altogether.
The Nike Sujetador Deportivo Swoosh Icon Clash Mujer MID SEASON SALE Negro XL FEELS light
We spotted that this Kevin Durant shoe is more streamlined and much quicker, which is why we concluded that this is an absolute home run from Nike. We felt that the Nike Sujetador Deportivo Swoosh Icon Clash Mujer MID SEASON SALE Negro XL is the lightest KD ever even if it is not what the shoe's actual weight shows.
The KD 15 is at 12.6 oz (357 g), which is way above the average weight of Nike KD shoes which we peg at 12.1 oz (344 g). It is also 20-22 g heavier than the nike zoom lebron vi 6 christ the king home and the Air Deldon.
