It seems like all the bball shoes on the market are low, maximum mid tops. I remember just a few years ago there were some high top options and tbh it seemed like the classic “bball shoes” archetype. I also would assume that high tops provide more ankle support and all (correct me if im wrong) and low tops could make people more prone to rolling ankles.
I’m very new to bball shoes, and I just thought it was interesting how there seems to be a change in trend.

Hi I've been using my nike zoom gt jumps for the past four years in highschool. I love them so so so so much and I hoped I would be able to use them till the end of senior year, but their air pockets popped mid-season. I've tried other shoes, (I play middle blocker in volleyball) but none of them seem to be as great as the gt jump. I know its bulky and all but in the end it fits my prefs.

My parents have a strict no second hand shoes rule (I don't know why) so they want me to find an alternative out of whats available in stores now. I was hoping to get some advice, on what shoes I could get.

I live in korea and what I like the most about the gt jumps are that they make it so easy to jump multiple times without getting extremely tired. I also have weak joints and a high vert, meaning my knees and ankles and back hurt when I wear shoes with low shock absorption. To be honest, my biggest dream would be to find shoes that are very very similar to the gt jumps. I would really appreciate some help.

I'm 5'6 120 lbs (female) and a teen. I have narrow and flat feet

I got accepted for this year's session and just made the payment. Was just curious who else would be attending!
