Hey everyone, so I’ve been getting into basketball lately, and obviously, I’ve been eyeing LaMelo Ball’s signature shoes, the MB.01s. I mean, the guy’s got style, and his shoes are fire! So I decided to take the plunge and see what these kicks are all about.
First off, let me tell you, these shoes are attention-grabbers. I went with the “Thermal” edition, and the design is just wild. When I first saw them, I thought they looked a bit chunky, but once I put them on, they felt surprisingly good. They’re definitely not your average-looking basketball shoes.
Now, I’m not a pro or anything, but I do like to shoot some hoops at the local court. So, I laced up the MB.01s and headed out. The first thing I noticed was the traction. I read some reviews online that said the traction was amazing on clean courts, and they were right. I was able to make quick cuts and stops without any issues. Some reviews mentioned that dust could be a problem, but honestly, a quick wipe usually did the trick for me. They’re not really made for outdoor courts, though. The traction pattern seems like it would wear out pretty fast on rough surfaces.
- First Impressions:
- They look super cool and unique.
- They feel surprisingly comfortable despite the chunky look.
- On the Court:
- Traction is top-notch on clean courts.
- Dust can be an issue, but it’s easily fixed with a wipe.
- Not ideal for outdoor use.
I played a few games, and the shoes felt great. They’re comfortable, they provide good support, and they definitely made me feel a bit more like LaMelo out there. But hey, I’m no Rookie of the Year, so don’t expect any miracles!
Overall Thoughts
All in all, I’m really happy with my MB.01s. They’re stylish, they perform well on the court, and they’re a fun addition to my sneaker collection. I’ve been wearing them casually too, pairing them with jeans or joggers, and they look pretty dope. If you’re a LaMelo fan, or just looking for a unique and high-performing basketball shoe, I’d say give the MB.01s a shot. You might be surprised at how much you like them!
And you know what? I’ve noticed that LaMelo himself sometimes rocks the Puma Court Rider on the court, which is pretty interesting. But for me, the MB.01s are where it’s at. They’re not just shoes; they’re a statement, you know? They are also a great way to show your support for LaMelo. Anyway, that’s my little review of the MB.01s. Hope you guys found it helpful!
