Let me start by describing my build: I'm 5'10" and weigh 149 pounds. I usually play center in basketball and occasionally go for runs. Since I typically wear thick basketball socks, I went for size 43, and it fits just right. 💡 Key points: Outdoor courts, ice cream colorway, strong breathability, excellent support, great lockdown. Let's talk about the Li Ning Sonic 9 Team. This is truly a standout pair in the budget-friendly basketball shoe category, offering great looks, functionality, and comfort. At just over 200 yuan, it's a no-brainer. ✅ Appearance: The ice cream colorway is absolutely stunning and was the main reason I bought these shoes. It's hard to resist, and it pairs perfectly with shorts and a T-shirt in the summer. ✅ Comfort: The shoe offers excellent lockdown, with good heel support. At 154 pounds, the initial comfort was great, and the cushioning hasn't degraded too much over time. The landing cushioning is sufficient, and it's comfortable for daily walking. The shoe has a low center of gravity, decent upper support without too much deformation, and solid traction. ❌ Downsides: The upper material is hard to clean, the forefoot feels a bit roomy, the anti-rollover effect is average, the durability is just okay, and the lack of a TPU plate means stability is only moderate. 💡 Summary: Great looks, friendly price, and meets the needs of most people. Suitable for running and outdoor basketball, but the average stability means it's not recommended for competitive games.lg...More

"When lifting my foot, it feels a bit tight across the top of the foot, but once I step down, it's not as noticeable. I have flat feet and wide feet, so I'll test it during an evening basketball game and update my review based on the experience. PS: After playing, it performed really well. The support and torsional stability are good. The heel is softer and more bouncy than the forefoot, which is probably why so many people wear Kobe shoes. The only downside is that you can't use custom insoles, but otherwise, it's great. PS2: I forgot about the tightness on the top of the foot and tried a second half-court game. Since speed isn't a factor in half-court, the only noticeable sensation was the bouncy feel when jumping and landing. Also, the tightness on the top of the foot didn't feel as painful as in the first game."lg...More
