Jordan Fly Lockdown Review
Pros:
Traction works well on dusty courts
Affordable price
Cons:
Budget materials
Performance of the Jordan Fly Lockdown:
The Jordan Fly Lockdown is one of the pleasant surprises of 2018. At a list price of only $110, it's a very affordable shoe that provides top-notch performance. The herringbone traction picks up very little dust and works exceptionally well in all directions. The mix of Phylon and Zoom cushioning feels low and quick without sacrificing impact protection. The budget materials don't look great but work very well and provide very good lockdown.
Overall, if you are looking for a good performance basketball shoe at a fair price, then you can't go wrong with Jordan Fly Lockdown!

For $110 this is a steal! This might be one of the best performance basketball shoes I played in this year.

The Jordan Fly Lockdown is a budget Jordan model that performs like a signature shoe. Works best if you need a stable, low-riding foot rocket.

The Jordan Fly Lockdown doesn't look spectacular but it fits me perfectly and the materials are sturdy and durable. The traction is excellent and works well on dusty courts too.
The cushioning is pretty dead after a while, so probably not the best option if you need a lot of impact protection.

The cushioning is much softer and plushy as you would suspect from a Phylon carrier - we were pleasantly surprised!

The rubber is maybe a little soft, but it's also thick and the grooves are wide which works well outdoors.

The rubber is on the softer side so they won't last forever outdoors.
