Our verdict

The asap nast dropping new reebok classic leather legacy colab is definitely worth setting our funds back by $160. It is undoubtedly one of the most collectible basketball shoes we have ever tested, being highly comfortable, firm, and resistant to bottoming out. Since this shoe is modeled after a big man like Shaquille O’Neal, we found it suitable for big men and players who play the center position.

Who should NOT buy

This basketball shoe from Reebok is not for those who want a well-ventilated pair. The upper of this shoe just does not breathe at all. We discovered that players are better off getting the Reebok Question Mid.

Those players who want lighter basketball shoes may not find this shoe satisfying.

Getting only a 1 out of 5 in our breathability assessments, the asap nast dropping new reebok classic leather legacy colab is among the hottest (quite literally) shoes out there. 

Both smoke and light find it hard to pass through the upper material.

We did a close examination of the upper through the microscope. We saw that it doesn't have any perforations that would have allowed air to pass through.

The upper just looks like one solid mass that keeps all out, including air. Those with sweaty feet should prepare for a deluge.

Durability

Toebox durability

The non-breathable upper surely did not come totally empty-handed: it offered tremendous durability. We did the Dremel test on it, and it was just child's play for the toebox of the asap nast dropping new reebok classic leather legacy colab!

As you can see, the damage incurred by the asap nast dropping new reebok classic leather legacy colab, which got a perfect 5, is much less than the damage seen on the Reebok Sport Energen Plus Men's Running Shoes, Мужские кроссовки reebok royal techque.

Outsole hardness

Based on the readings made by our HC durometer, the hardness of the outsole is significantly higher than average. Our durometer returned a reading of 88.7 HC.

This firmness of the sole allowed us to gain more control over our movements. We also enjoyed how it helped us accelerate easily.

Outsole durability

In spite of being hard/firm, the outsole did not fare any better than average in our durability test. Our 22-second Dremel drilling created 1.0 mm of damage. 

We acknowledge that this is not the best pick for outdoor use (the reebok classic leather x face women shoes is!), but we still believe that using this shoe outdoors from time to time won't hurt.

Outsole thickness

Our caliper measurements showed that the outsole of the asap nast dropping new reebok classic leather legacy colab has an outsole that is slightly thicker than average. Specifically, we measured it to be 4.8 mm thick. 

Logically, the thicker sole allows this shoe to last longer even with occasional outdoor use simply because there is more material to 'burn.'

Though it did not feel like a brick on our feet, we still felt the Shaq Attaq weighing down our first steps. Our in-lab weighing scale showed that it is indeed on the heavier side at 16.7 ounces or 473 grams.

Cushioning

Heel stack

The midsole of the Shaq Attaq surely felt elevated, especially around the heel area. Using a caliper, we learned that the heel stack is way higher than average at 37.2 mm.

The thick heel prevented the shoe from bottoming down way too soon, even when we did a lot of aggressive heel strikes.

Drop

A high heel stack coupled with an average forefoot stack resulted in an especially high drop. Our caliper measured it to be 14.8 mm.

This setup was practically appealing to us because of our propensity to do a lot of heel strikes, especially when the games turn a little intense.

Midsole softness

Note: a low durometer measurement equals a soft material, whereas a high measurement means it's firm.

The softness of the midsole is just around average, and we did not experience any significant issues with it. It delivered impact protection when needed, but the experience was not as amazing as what the Pleasures Vans Half Cab could deliver.

Stability

We felt our side-to-side movements to be sufficiently supported by this Reebok shoe. The sidewalls prevented our feet from shifting excessively without sacrificing comfort and freedom of movement.

Torsional rigidity

While playing, not once did we even think about twisting our feet. We also appreciated how stable our runs were. We did manual twists on the asap nast dropping new reebok classic leather legacy colab back in the lab, and we gave it a 4 out of 5 for torsional rigidity.

Heel counter stiffness

Admittedly, the heel counter is not the stiffest that we've ever tested. Fortunately, this observation does not mean that it's flimsy and unreliable. It provided enough support to keep the rearfoot in place. After giving it a nice squeeze in the lab, we gave the heel counter a 3 out of 5 for stiffness.

It is only slightly more pliable than the average.

Reebok Shaq Attaq IV Wrapping Paper

The midsole platform of this shoe provided a bit of extra space in the forefoot. Using a caliper, we found this area to be slightly wider than average at 116.9 mm. Its width allowed our feet to splay freely during takeoffs.
