I just grabbed a couple pairs of the TwoWxy v4 for $50 each. I’ll probably be grabbing these as soon as they go on sale. I really love how New Balance keeps there basketball lines small and focused. They have a shoe for each general player type and one signature athlete. Each shoe is great at what it’s meant for and made really well. I hope they stay this way for a long. Currently they’re my go to brand just because they’re easy to try on at Dicks and often on sale. Nike has really fallen off for me and adidas just doesn’t fit. Overseas brands are too hard to get and try on.
I don't know what New balance is doing with their basketball shoes but to me they are killing it, all the shoes i have bought from them performed well, my new favorite shoe is the hesi low V2 it fits my foot like a glove and it has great traction along with nice comfort and it didn't take much to break in, best basketball shoes out there
Just copped the NB twoway V5 in BLUE BLUE CAMO colorway...i must say for comfort on my knees (47yrs old)..😁 and the support is great. Awesome shoe for my old ass 💯👍🏀
@@greendog8424 not in Toronto. They're also extremely hard to find in good colourways. Footlocker only sells ugly ones at full price and New Balance doesn't carry basketball shoes here. Only one store had the two wxys and only in a few select sizes/colours.
The V3s are probably still my personal favorite from this line, but they have all been excellent. Excited to give this one a try when more colors come out
that’s true, I don’t mind low to the ground and the v3 was a more snug fit with slightly better traction for me. But if you want best cushion V4 for sure
Thanks for your review Tommy, I just picked up a pair for $70 AUD inc postage thanks to an online price match mishap from a sports store over here in AUS. Cn't wait to give these things a run!
V4s are unmatched in my opinion. Have to pairs. Been hooping for almost 20 yrs and never had a shoe this elite when it comes to traction, fit, and comfort. They turn heads. Can’t wait for the v5 and may try the hesi low v2 even tho I at least like to stick with mid cut.
Might sound strange.. but the v4 was too much grip< too easy to get crossed over in because you stick instead of slidding. I returned them and settled with the GT Academy for better court feel
I was thinking about getting the two wxy v4 cuz of the decreased price. But specifically for outdoor use. Would it make sense to just get these instead ? (Ankle roller problems )
I just got a pair of the bbv2 - the more I play in them - the more I like them. My legs don’t ache after games - it’s great. If cushion and impact protection are key - which one come out ahead - bbv2 or twoway5?
Yes indeed I feel the same. That shoe causes no soreness whatsoever, same with these actually. Cushion & impact protection they pretty much feel the same, a lot of similarities between the two so might not be worth the additional purchase if you’re already enjoying that pair. Maybe wait for discounts / more colorways in your case 😁
@@TommyLiu4 NB doing incredible things right now - I’m a fan - and as far as NB shoes go the new twoway look okay! I thought the fresh foam bb2 looked like an old school dad shoe but for its performance - I don’t care. Considering the two shoes are crossing over, I’m curious to see what they will do with the fresh foam line. Thanks again.
Start of by saying your the goat of this stuff 🙌🏼…. So I would love to get your thoughts, I have the v4s and Ive told you before this shoe is perfect I prefer them over my reverse grinches, lebron 21 and kd16. I want to get another pair but what would you say is better v5s,hesi low 2 or completely different 361 big3 5.0 quick pro. Honestly I just look for the comfort height or weight doesn’t matter.
@@anthonyburet6395 🙏🙏 HESI LOW V2 if I have to pick one. But I know that you’re already set cause all those you named are just absolutely amazing performers to me, so there’s no bad choice - you’ll have a blast with either one of those. All Top 5 of the year level in my opinion.
Still trying to find a wide foot outdoor shoe you can actually buy in Canada 😭 Plz help, so far the WoW Sof seems best but they need to release the black or grey colours again. Heard the two wxy v3 was amazing for outdoor but came find the extra wide in Canada.
Son of Flash is pretty narrow tbh. Puma’s Court Rider series is always the first one to pop up for me when I think of wide / outdoor shoes, Fresh Foam BB V2 is good too.
Hi tommy. Does the difference between the standard and wide fit is huge? I tried fitting them today standard and they feel snug. Im usually a size 11, slight wide feet. I have kai 1s, quickpro and ac12v2 in size 11
I already have 2 pairs of v4s thanks to this amazing channel and they are my fav hoop shoes ever. I will cop these once they go on sale like i did with my v4s lol. 2 wxy line is my fav. I used to hoop in hyperdunks , had the x and a older version, and liked them but dissapointed nike discontinued them.
Yoo! Debating between the hesi low v2 (because of your review), two wxy v5, and the Liren 4 (mid/high top), which would you prefer? I know you have high praise of the liren line, so curious on your thoughts in comparison. Thanks!!
@@sebastian7582 They should have 2E & 4E versions for these as with their other basketball releases lately, but availability will depend heavily on your location.
