Are You Courageous Enough? Zoom Soldier 3 Without Straps. »

In the latest edition of Sole Collectors’s ‘What Did You Ball In Today’ Nick DePaula, who is known by his hatred towards straps of any kind, made an alteration to the Nike Zoom Soldier III. The shoes are insanely light so it doesn’t have any effect in that department, but some people prefer an easier access to the lacing system. Anyway just like in our first impression post the ZSIII received positive notes. The author points out that in times when most of Nike lightweight products (f.e. Zoom Kobe IV, Hyperdunk, and Hyperize) offer Lunar Foam, the new Soldiers come in with a $110 Zoom/Zoom configuration. It comes in handy when you’re playing basketball past the two hour mark and when your game is based on that quick first step moves. Do you like the new look? Do you consider cutting the straps off your pair?
