Today I want to talk my favorite 2020 Adidas basketball shoes–Adidas BYW X 2.0. It may be the most excellent basketball shoes of Adidas in this year.
Comprehensive Assessment:
Suited Court: indoor and outdoor court
Suited People: The player whose weight is under 90kg
Suited Foot type: normal size, it’s unsuitable for the guys who have high instep
Vamp:
Adidas BYW X 2.0 also uses different material for different colorway like many basketball shoes.
Although I prefer to the iridescent colorways, but the ventilated mesh legging of iridescent colorways don’t have good strength.
Although the grey one that we purchased is also knitted material, but the material is thicker, especially the lining.
The fitness of Adidas BYW X 2.0 is good. It’s also very comfortable.
The inner sleeve also improves the fitness. But it will be tight for you if your instep is high.
Although it doesn’t have obvious lining on the shoe heel, but the heel can be fixed well.
The overall supporting performance of Adidas BYW X 2.0 is good. The upturning TPU on the insole and outsole can offer extra support to vamp.
Insole:
The insole of Adidas BYW X 2.0 uses full-length insole. The feedback of Adidas BYW X 2.0 Boost insole is perfect.
One of my favorite Boost basketball shoes is Marquee Boost, as it uses good material and it’s very comfortable. I think that the Boost insole of BYW is upgraded MB.
The cushion performance of adjusted Boost is excellent.
The forefoot is thin, the starting speed is fast. The feedback of forefoot sole is obvious. The rear sole is thick.
It has upturning design of outsole on the inner side. It can avoid the deformation of insole to keep the durability of cushion performance.
The biggest problem of Crazy BYW x 2 to me is, the TPU on the insole is uncomfortable. It needs time to break-in.
Outsole:
As you know, the traction performance of herringbone outsole is great.
After wearing about one month, it doesn’t have obvious abrasion on the outsole.
Overall:
For anti-rollover performance, although the outsole extension is not obvious, but the stiff rubber on both sides are very thick, the rigidity is also good.
The center of gravity is also not high. So the stability is good.
Crazy BYW x 2 has torsion system, so anti-torsion performance is good. After bending it, we haven’t seen obvious deformation.
