ANTA KT 7 Review
Pros:
Comfortable cushioning
Grippy traction on clean courts
Cons:
Dust pickup can cause slight slipping
The shoe is heavy
Performance of the ANTA KT 7:
Klay Thompson's seventh signature shoe with Anta is a formidable performance model.
The traction is tacky and grippy. The only concern is having to wipe when dust gathers.
Anta's cushioning stack is high, but it feels comfortable. The foam is dense and bouncy.
Material quality is better than expected. The upper also feels supportive, and it conforms to your feet nicely. The only downside is weight.
The support and stability, especially around the heel, are solid. One reviewer did report the extra room in the forefoot affected their security and lockdown.
Overall, the Anta KT 7 is a solid option, with its bouncy but comfortable cushioning being a standout feature.

The rubber is tacky, which creates grippy traction on hardwood courts as long as your feet are flat. Beware of dust, though.

A lot is going on in the cushioning. It's responsive and bouncy while incorporating shock absorption, especially under the heel.

The cushioning setup is stacked with a high offset. The foam is soft, and there's plenty of impact protection.

There's a ton of lateral stability. It's secure in the forefoot and the midfoot. The winglets also provide tons of support.

The heel counter and stability are impressive, but I slid on the footbed because of the roomy width.
