Change of Plans..

Ok, so for the people that saw my blog....sorry to say, but i did not keep the Nike Zoom Skyposites that i had ordered few days back for the reasons being ;

1. Too Stiff. ( probably break-inable, but even then it felt like that would not do much as for playability. ) In other words, you wont be able to play 100% STRAIGHT out of the box.
2. A bit on the HEAVY side. Yes, i said HEAVY. Compared it to the Nike Foamposite Lites, and they were about the same weight. Also, the Foamposite Lites are more DEFINITELY more comfortable.
3. I had a problem with the shoe digging RIGHT underneath my ankle bone ( the little bone thats right under the ankle bone ), it kept creasing awkwardly, making it VERY uncomfortable.
4. For a MID-CUT shoe, ankle protection was not there. I might have not tied the shoe hard enough, but just to tell you, i tie my shoe till its tight enough so that i dont cut off circulation. Doing that, there was no ankle protection there. -1 on Nikes part.
5. Finally, EVERYONE knows the feeling, "THIS IS NOT THE SHOE FOR ME" the MINUTE you try the shoe on and walk around in it for a minute or two. This shoe was one of those for me.
