What type of player you are ?

2. Speedster

3. All around player !

1. Power player

This type of player requires a lot of physical contact and jumping within confined spaces. They want a shoe with maximum cushioning and stability

High-tops or mid-tops shoes would work well for a power player.

2. Speedster

Fast players rely on speed and quickness, so they don’t want a heavy shoe holding them back.

Low-tops shoes will well suit them.

3. All around player

They do a little bit of everything

This type of player should look for shoes that offer good support, cushioning, and flexibility, but are not too bulky. Mid-tops are usually a great fit for this type of player.

Try before you buy…

Give a test drive, take a walk around the store, jump up and

down a couple of times

Important tips while trying shoes

* Wear your shoes with socks * Best to try shoes at end of the day as feet expand slightly

during physical activities * There should be about a finger’s width between your

longest toe and the end of the shoe.
