Nike Air Max Game Day

Overview:
Even from prison Michael Vick is still making a presence… The Nike Air Max Game Day is basically the Nike Zoom Vick 5 that rides on a full length Air Max sole… So Nike has pumped some life back into the Vick 5 to save some re-tooling cash and delivered a really strong court shoe.

Style/Design:
The Nike Air Max Game Day is a great looking basketball shoe with great clean lines and back to basic basketball function. The design feature that impressed me the most is the new ankle support feature. The upper is made of a synthetic upper and detailed with a breathable quarter vent and heel cut that breathes like a Huarache. The ankle support was good. I really felt the lockdown more on the back of the heel than the side. Lateral motion was not compromised but was not nearly as strong as other Nike basketball shoes. All in all, I really like this basketball shoe based on price and the features you get. The full length Air Max sole is like butta! So soft and smooth.

Fit:
The Nike Air Max Game Day is a great ride, super comfortable and really durable. I enjoyed the improved ankle lacing options to really fine tune the fit. The Nike Air Max Game Day runs true to size and the width is pretty standard. And of course the Air Max sole… FANTASTIC. This is an all day basketball shoe that will take a beating on the blacktop.

Price:
It’s a shame the Nike Air Max Game Day got lost in the mix of Nike basketball shoes. With the hype of the Hyperdunk and the new Kobe shoes many have over looked this kick. But now that the price has dropped and the Nike Air Max Game Day would make an excellent addition to any ballers line-up for a summer training shoe that won’t beat up you body. Look for it at Eastbay for $70.
