The Nike Zoom Crusader are
the lowest cut sneakers. The Nike Zoom Crusader is a surprise . The Crusaders come at a great price,
they look great, and they play pretty damn good. Obviously, support is it’s
biggest setback, but if you can possibly reinforce your ankles with some
braces, you should be alright.
There are two types of
rubber used on the outsole on the Crusaders that happen to workreally well
both indoor and outdoors. The inner section of the shoe is tad bit more
forgiving than the outer area allowing the shoe to grip to the floor.
Surprisingly, the pattern held itself pretty well indoors as I squeaked
my way around to the hoop.
Nike got it right once
again with an awesome midsole and Zoom bag choices. In the forefoot, you
have a rectangle sized Zoom bag similar to the KD VI and a standard heel Zoom
unit. At this price point, $110.00 is a deal for having heel and forefoot
Zoom.
Running around the Crusader
is effortless. From heel strike to toe-off, the shoe feels fluid and
smooth. Because of a soft midsole and responsive Zoom cushioning, you
glide through the court with no clunky feeling whatsoever. You remain low
to the ground with great on-court feel.
Support ties directly with
the issue above, heel lockdown. The shoe doesn’t flex much to begin with
around the midfoot so it shouldn’t be an issue. Other than the heel
lockdown issue, the Crusaders support the shoe and does a great job keep the
foot on the footbed.
It provides great traction,
has great cushioning, and has an upper that will last longer than a season. For a cheap price you are provided with a
better quality product.Enjoy.
