361 Joker 1 Review
Pros:
Quality materials and construction
Comfortable and plush cushioning
Cons:
Minor dust pickup
Performance of the 361 Joker 1:
Nikola Jokic's debut signature shoe with 361, the Joker 1, is an impressive all-around performer.
Its traction performance is reliable, especially on clean courts. The grip performs decently on dirtier courts, but there is a bit of dust pickup.
361 uses their CQT foam for the cushioning setup. It feels plush and comfortable. The shoe has plenty of impact protection under the heel and court feel under the forefoot.
The materials and upper construction feel high-quality. It feels comfortable and supportive around your feet.
In addition to the upper, the midfoot shank and extra cables along the eyelets provide added support and lockdown. Heel lockdown is also not an issue.
The 361 Joker 1 manages to provide versatile performance for a great price. The shoe does everything well.

The traction is top-tier on clean courts. The only downside is it struggles a bit with dust. Don't let the dust build up over time.

The traction performance is decent. It stops on a dime on cleaner courts but it suffers on dust.

I had no issues with the support. Heel containment is rock solid, and you're covered with side-to-side movements.
