Yep as much as sneaker companies love talking about how light their shoes are they haven’t lost any weight in a decade. Traction was never great for me w the soldier 3 but that zoom is great

Still got my soldier 3s from 09 in fair condition unfortunately toe has some yellowing and barley traction on bottom but decent, if only they retail these again like they did the zoom 3 I would buy two pair just because these are one of my favorite lebron shoes/ color way. After wearing these again since 09/10 they are much lighter than I could remember and still very comfortable only issue is traction I feel it could have been a lil better so we don’t have to wipe off bottom every couple plays for grip

Nice you have several pairs to use.

I’m always a little wary of my consumerism. Generally tend to vacillate on how many shoes I should have/buy. Recently there haven’t been that many shoes that I like aesthetically, so that’s helped keep it in check. (I have an easier time rationalizing and accepting purchases for shoes to hoop in than ones for casual wear, although now I’ve got a good selection of five pairs of very good, playable hoop shoes, so I’m trying to fall back on those at least until I wear out the Hardens—haha! Point is, I can largely set aside aesthetic considerations when buying shoes for performance, and since I don’t like how most new shoes look, it’s been fairly easy to hold off on new casual wear purchases.) But that can be a double-edged sword, ‘cause when a shoe comes out that I do like how it looks, I get all hype because I’ve “been good” about not buying sneakers, and can get carried away. Like when I made three different pairs of Dame 3s on miadidas because they’re funky and offered good color and material options 😳

Haha! Yeah, the VIs were special (performance-wise… was never wild about them aesthetically, though I don’t hate how they look either). I wore them until the soles were bald (would still get decent traction on some outdoor courts with that tennis court type of surface. You’re lucky to still have functional pair(s)!

Ha I should have said the harden might the be only pair that has a chance against these. Kobe vi has been getting playing time lately as well as I purged my closet and I’m like damn what happened sneaker companies ? Real zoom is so fun
