2019<\/strong> is shaping up to be an unbelievable year for performance basketball shoes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n From what’s been announced so far we’re poised to see new signature shoes, new technologies and remakes of past favorites. Each major brand has something new to bring to the table ensuring everyone has something fresh to rock on the court. Our wallets might hate us but here’s a rundown of hoop shoes you can buy now or be on the watch for this season.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The 12 still holds up as a hoops shoe, one of the few OGs that do.<\/p>\n Believe it or not, the Air Jordan 12 is one of the few classic Jays that are still viable on the court. The full-length internal Zoom Air units provide responsive cushioning and the uppers are just as protective in 2019 as they were in ’96.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n A carbon fiber mid foot shank helps shed weight from the overall heavy shoes. Fit wise, 12s snugly hug the feet when tied tight and the herringbone traction paired proves that sometimes older techniques still work.<\/p>\n Buy the Air Jordan 12 here<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Last year’s LeBron Watch<\/a> entertained fans with fresh takes on classic LeBron and Nike designs of the past.<\/p>\n In 2019, Team LeBron seeks to keep building momentum with a new wave of hot LeBron 16s. If the\u00a0SuperBron<\/em> joints are an indication of what’s to come, then we’re ecstatic to see what Nike’s cooking up.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Don’t get too wrapped up in the 16’s looks because it’s a beast on the court, too. Nike refined the BattleKnit and Air Max Zoom units for a shoe that’s business on the top and a party on the bottom.<\/p>\n Buy the Nike LeBron 16 here<\/p>\n Brandon Ingram has been rocking with the Marquee Boost Low, but we common folk finally got our hands on them earlier this month.<\/p>\n The Marquee Boost Mid brought a fresh new design to Adidas Hoops, and the Low iteration offers the same great look in a smaller package.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Boost-loaded heel delivers stellar cushioning and the padded synthetic ankle provides plush support. The Ingram PE pictured above is one of many Team Adidas colorways we should expect to see in the near future.<\/p>\n Buy the adidas Marquee BOOST Low here<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Under Armour has been trying to catch fire with a performance hoops shoe without Steph Curry’s name for some time.<\/p>\n So, in a surprising move UA is bringing back the Anatomix Spawn line in 2019 with a brand new look reminiscent of the Curry 5.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Anatomix Spawn was first made famous by Brandon Jennings and Curry back in 2013.<\/p>\nAir Jordan 12<\/h2>\n
