Amazing!!!
These v3's are straight fire! I highly, highly recommend these! My next fav hoop shoe in my rotation next to the GT Cut 2's. I love that they're lows, comfort on these are awesome as usual with NB! They're a bit firmer than the V2s which I like. Better court feel, quality materials, and sleek design, color-ways are fire, and super lightweight! Also the lockdown is nice with the N Logo incorporated into the design. I would note that I had to go a half size down from my normal 8.5 as they ran long. So I would go with the smaller size if ur in between sizes like me. The size 8's were perfect! Don't sleep on New Balance's Hoops program!... Show more

Best performance hoopers for the price! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Extremely comfortable with excellent traction indoors and outdoors. NB foam tech is great - supportive with decent energy return. Lockdown’s been pretty strong - best without my added insoles. Love the little details like the brain logo hiding “two way” - colors are rad on court, too!... Show more

Excellent Basketball Shoes
These shoes have it all! Traction is top tier, and they feel like an extension of your foot. If you need a lot of cushion these are not the shoes for you but my feet did not hurt after extended play, so cushion is adequate. Court feel is insane. These shoes also fit extremely well. I have a slightly wider foot and this shoe gave me plenty of room. You will be missing out if you you do not get this shoe before they are gone. I have tried on the TWO WXY 4'S and I believe this is the superior shoe.... Show more

Excellent Fit for Wide Feet
After many months of waiting and trying other "supposedly" wide fitting shoes from other brands (of course none fit), the TWO WXY v3's came out and available in my size (10.5) so I swooped in and bought a pair. Given my recent past experiences, I was really worried that a wide size wasn't "wide" enough but TWO WXY came through with a great fit. The shoe fit snugly and not too tight. There's a nice design feature in the laces area that also really helps support the foot nicely with a good wrap around effect. I also replaced the insole liners with an arch support version and it didn't affect the fit of the shoe at all. I've played on them for 2 days so far and the traction and support are really good. definitely a good purchase and I would recommend it to other wide ...

Great build quality. Unfortunate design choice
I loved the build quality from the first wear. Clear quality shines. However, after a break-in period, I discovered a Y-shaped bit at the bottom of the laces that is not adjustable. This creates blood flow restriction above the joint of the big toe. I hoped it would give more after breaking in but it does not. So for my feet, these are a 2.5 to 3 star-great potential with an unfortunate design flaw-other notes: these grip hardwood floors very well, very squeaky. FWIW I play full-court games three times a week with training every day.... Show more
Basketball Shoe Review

Great service, price, selection
I was looking all over for the New Balance Two WXY basketball shoes for pickleball and found them at Hibbets. Not only were they the exact color I was looking for but the price was incredible! So far so good. I ordered them and expected to wait a couple of weeks like I had to before when I bought from a national sporting goods shoe/gear company but they arrived in about 4 days. Fantastic!... Show more

So good I bought 3 pairs!
I am usually a 10.5 in most all shoes. My foot is wide (2E) and I have a higher dorsum (top of foot), for this reason I went with a size 11. Going the half size up definitely helped my wider/thick foot have that comfort, but still feel snug in the toe box. I don’t want my foot sliding around inside the shoe during basketball. The shoe does not heat up while playing, it actually dissipates a lot of the heat and you don’t get those hot spots. The traction is insane, even on dusty indoor courts. My first pair of the Two Wxy v3 are 6 months old and still squeaking up a storm. I am 6’ 220lbs and I play basketball once a week. I mostly play down low and rebound, no issues with pain from jumping or landing. They’re lite and I run the court for the 2-3 hours we play. I ... MoreI am usually a 10.5 in most all shoes.

This is my third pair in varying styles. If it helps, I loved playing in my Kobe 10 bright crimson. The New Balance Two Wxy v3 beats them all day.... Show more

Solid Sneaker to Hoop In
I needed a solid sneaker that I could hope in and this actually surprised me. They're super comfortable despite me having flat me. They feel superlight and give me great stability. I wont say they are the most grippy sneaker but the grip is for sure, in my opinion, above average. I feel like they handle impact well too. Gives enough cushion for soft landings which my knees are thankful for lol. This sneaker also has some nice colorways as well.... Show more

Stellar!
I’ve worn Nike Hyperdunks for my whole life, and got an old, used pair of KD9’s - so you can take that into account when reading my review. These are significantly better than all of the shoes I’ve ever had. The court grip is phenomenal and the support/stability makes my foot feel secure, no matter whether I’m changing direction, jumping/landing, or stutter stepping.They also look great - even better in person.The shoe fit me right out of the box, and feels like I’ve been wearing it for a couple weeks - it’s gonna need a lot less break-in time than the shoe’s I’ve had in the past. The only downside I’ve seen is that the top of the foot can feel slightly constricted if you tie the laces too tight.I was a little wary buying New Balances, as I’ve never had a pair ...

The Hype Is Real
I didn't want to buy into the hype behind this shoe. I wanted to see for myself. Man, the hype is real. These are some of the most well-fitting, comfortable, and grippy basketball shoes I've ever worn. Some other reviewers complained about the cushion on this shoe being lack luster. As a lighter player (150 lbs), this shoe had the perfect combo of cushioning and responsiveness for me. Stops on a dime. The fit is perfect. I might get another pair if the durability holds up....
