#kixspotted World Balance Cager

 

Have you seen the latest basketball kicks from World Balance? Well, I have the chance to see the World Balance Cager in store which I will be discussing in today's post. The WB Cager is a basketball performance shoe from World Balance which comes in 2 colorways. They have a predominant white colorway and a dark-based colorway which uses some brown and grey tones. For materials, it has a combination of synthetic leather, suede and nylon which for me gives a premium look. It has a high-cut profile so those who love to ball hightop will surely love this. In the lacing system, you will find a rope-like structure which aids in giving you more lockdown in the midfoot area since it helps the materials be closer together, hugging your foot. Another support feature is the TPU heel counter found at the back. I cannot confirm if this TPU piece runs up to the midfoot underneath that would also act as a torsion piece, but nonetheless there is some aid in heel containment. The best part for this particular model in my opinion is the use of World Balance's Trampolite foam. We have seen Trampolite being used in lifestyle as well in some training kicks, but not in an actual basketball shoe. I wore the shoe in-store, just an initial try-on and I can feel there is some "oomph" to it. I really can't describe it too well but I am decided to cop a pair soon and give a proper performance review. Finally, you have a solid rubber outsole with herringbone traction pattern which is a good choice. Also, take note that the white colorway uses solid white rubber while the dark based has gum outsole.

I have seen these pairs at WB Trinoma and I am sure that these are also available in other World Balance stores around the metro which retails for Php 2,699. I am planning to cop a pair real soon and give a proper review on these so stay tuned here at analykix in the upcoming weeks. But for now, here are some of the detailed images that I took in store.
