Hey I wanna start a serious discussion about the Vs performance. I just got home from playing in these for the first time:
A little background: I play 3 times a week( 1 league & 2 nites of pick up), indoors only, I am 39(!) yrs old, but can still get up and down the court. Still play with college age guys & most nights I am the oldest guy out there. I have a moderate case of plantar fasciitis in my right foot, but it doesn't stop me from playing. My current bb shoe rotation has the Kobe IVs(2 pair), Lebron VI, Air III (KGs), 2k5s, Zoom BBs and AJ XIIs.
Anyways, like I said, I wore the Vs tonight and HATED them. The narrowness of the arch part of the sole really hurt my foot. I felt my fasciitis acting up with every step. Don't get me wrong, the Vs cushioning is great, and they look, but I was greatly disappointed (and sad!) in how they felt on my feet. And now the top of my foot is sore too. There is no way I will wear them again, and I hope I can return them. This also cancels my plans to get other colorways.
Has anyone else had a negative experience balling in the Vs? And please... keep the smartass answers or dumb comments about me or my game to a minimum, I just want to know if I'm the only one.(and I know there is a review post) It breaks my heart that these didn't work out for me.
I've had the same problem, but weird as it seems, its only with the all star v's as i've played in the dark knights and had no problems. the ball and heel of my foot get soooo sore. never had a problem with flat feet but since i've gotten a lil older and a lot fatter...hahaha. really suck cuz i really love the v
X2 whit the ASG shoe but not the heel just my ankle hurt a little. But once broken in after 2-3 wearings it's a totally different shoe!
i've played in the BL and had no problems. So it is a little weird that only the ASG shoe is like that.
ps. at 39 and still playing bball 3 times a week is
