So I FINALLY hooped in these this week. To be honest, a little disappointed from a performance aspect. I love the Curry 2s. I still hoop in those regularly. I tried the crazy explosive for a bit but boost is too "mushy" for me on court. The Curry 2 was perfect in terms of fit, traction, cushion, etc. The 4 has an amazing fit but it hurts so bad for the first 15 minutes or so. The synthetic part hits your foot so hard when it creases. Also, the laces hurt even moreso. I tightened them up pretty tight and since the laces only rest on the knit part of the upper it feels like your being cut with rope every step and cut you make. The fit is amazing on these and I love how lightweight they feel, but tbh the traction isn't as nice as the 2 and the synthetic feels super cheap. Best looking Curry shoe, yes, but best performer still has to go to the 2.
