The 361° BIOSPEED BB Basketball Shoes are designed specifically for breakaway guards and agile forwards, emphasizing light weight, flexibility, and propulsion. They are suitable for players with medium to small body weights (recommended weight range of approximately 60-85kg) who possess strong mobility。
The 361° BIOSPEED BB Basketball Shoes are positioned as “running shoes that can play basketball.” Their design inspiration comes from the BIOSPEED series of running shoes, focusing on light weight, a sense of speed, and agile cornering. They are suitable for perimeter players who rely on running and jumping.
Performance
Weight and Flexibility
The weight of a size 43 shoe is approximately 310-363 grams, which is considered lightweight among basketball shoes, providing a non-clumsy feel during movement.
The natural flex point at the forefoot is well-designed, preventing the shoe from pinching the foot and ensuring smooth flexion, which is ideal for frequent changes of direction and acceleration.
Cushioning and Responsiveness
The midsole uses supercritical foaming material, which is notably soft and bouncy. The forefoot provides quick feedback upon landing, offering strong propulsion for takeoff; the rearfoot cushioning is robust, suitable for players with medium to small body weights.
The widened design and outer edge wrapping reduce the risk of ankle sprains, but players with a higher body weight (e.g., over 90kg) may find the cushioning limit slightly insufficient.
Fit and Support
The shoe lasts are standard with a moderate width, suitable for average foot shapes; those with high arches should try them on, and those with narrow feet may need to adjust the laces.
The lateral TPU wrapping extends to the inner side of the heel, enhancing overall strength. The anti-rolling design relies on the shoe upper strength and TPU wrapping, with no independent anti-rolling corner, thus requiring stronger ankle strength.
Breathability and Durability
The upper material is highly breathable, ensuring good heat dissipation and air circulation, making it suitable for summer or indoor court use.
The RPU outsole has a hardness value of about 67, which is satisfactory in terms of durability, but long-term use on outdoor courts still requires attention to wear and tear.
