Just got the Season 3's in the other day and I've been using them to spar and do bag work.

Awesome ankle support, especially compared to what I was working with before;
Saucony Cortana 2 which is obviously for running.

Anyway has anyone else ever used basketball shoes or these ZigEscape's to box? I would highly recommended it. IMO it's the best ankle support, at least that I have ever had in a pair of shoes.
You can move well with the zigs? I use to wear Nike Lunar's and the soles were to high... I'm using Adidas adizero's when I box now.

I'm even thinking of a flatter shoe to box in.
How do you like the saucony's? I just got Lunar Montreal's, they're amazing for roadwork. Haven't ran stadiums with them yet.

Yes, I can move great. They are exactly what I needed. I didn't want the typical boxing/wrestling shoes as I needed a shoe that could also be worn for other purposes than just on a matt etc.
Also these are the first Reebok's I've bought since the first "pumps" came out back in the 90's. I normally stick to Nike everything but I like these a lot and will probably look to Reebok more often.
As for the Sacony's, never owned a pair before these and I like them a lot. They were more expensive than expected but worth it imo. They're another brand that I will go back to as well.

Awesome.... basketball shoes
Yes, the top ones are while the bottom ones are for running...
Anyway I don't find them to just be any regular basketball shoe. They have an ankle support that is better than I've seen on any other shoe worn.
I don’t watch or play basketball but wanted a shoe with ankle support that wasn’t just for boxing but could be worn for multiple purposes. I found these to be perfect.
No feedback?
Do you not box? Run? Do anything athletic?
