Li-Ning Wade Ice Blood 2 Review
Pros:
Low-profile and snappy cushioning
One of the lightest shoes on the market
Cons:
Cheap material setup
Problematic fit
Performance of the Li-Ning Wade Ice Blood 2:
The Li-Ning Ice Blood 2 is a niche shoe for guards.
Traction is solid, and the performance gets better with more playing time.
The cushioning is 75% Boom foam and 25% Cloud Plus. This setup feels bouncy and springy while remaining low profile.
Reviewers describe the materials as cheap and low quality, but the performance is decent.
Support and lockdown are solid. The heel counter, in particular, is secure.
The fit is problematic because of the width. The shoe is very narrow.
The Li-Ning Wade Ice Blood 2 is a low-profile shoe with good traction and cushioning.

Li-Ning uses 75% Boom foam in the midsole, which is the shoe's shining feature. You sit low to the ground without sacrificing step-in comfort. Impact protection tapers out toward the forefoot.
