Nowadays, buying a pair of decent basketball sneakers means having to shell out at least a $100-spot. However, if you can live without all the bells and whistles of more fancy kicks, there are some affordable options out there that will get the job on the court. One such option is the Under Armour Jet basketball shoe.
Priced at just under $70, the UA Jet is a mid-top sneaker that features a simple, clean design centered more around performance than aesthetics. The upper on the lightweight shoe consists of a blend of mesh and synthetic material that offers fairly consistent breathability. Given the nature of the sport, a good basketball sneaker should have excellent traction. Thanks to a full-length rubber sole with multi-directional traction pattern, the UA Jet provides sure-footed grip regardless of surface. If cushioning and support are your concerns, well the Jet has you covered as well. A compression-molded foam midsole provides sound ankle support and cushioning that should last all game.
