D Lillard 2鞋子评论：Boost与Bounce

The Adidas D Lillard 2 might be the best basketball shoe I’ve ever worn.

在我的生活中两次，我感到不得不购买两双同一双鞋。几年前，我购买了三对Saucony Grid Nitros，上周我买了第二对D Lillard 2s。

With most styles running $105, they’re (relatively) cheap, high quality, comfortable, and lock to your foot like a glove. They’re also stylish if “subdued” is your style (check out the gallery of pictures above, taken by yours truly).

It’s also true that there are more versions of this thing than you can shake a stick at, and while that’s cool for customizing, it may offer folks a much different experience from style to style.

这些更改中最重要的变化 - 选择标准的“弹跳”或高级“增强”缓冲 - 将为您带来截然不同的体验。

D Lillard 2: Both styles

The D Lillard 2, whether with Boost or Bounce, is a superior basketball shoe. For me, it starts with the TechFit bootie and the heel, and how the two work together. When you put your foot in, it’s in. The heel lockdown is snug, but flexible. You don’t need to tie the laces to walk around, or even to do some light shooting without quick lateral movements.

The toebox is generous, which is preferred over “pinch-tight.” The laces are thoughtfully positioned so they apply good, equal pressure and hold your foot securely when fully laced. The combination of the bootie and the upper help dissipate lace pressure while keeping everything snug.

When playing, the shoe is flexible but locked in, which is optimal: You don’t want your shoe so flexible that it doesn’t stay with you on hard cuts, and you don’t want rigid material creating sore spots or distributing lockdown pressure unequally.

The shoe is responsive at the toe, and you can skip and make jabs effectively.

这是升压和弹跳缓冲之间的差异变得更加明显的地方。

D Lillard 2，Aurora Borealis（$ 115）：Boost cushioning, PrimeKnit upper, medium tread pattern

经过25次左右的全部法庭游戏，关于Boost版本有很多话要说：它很舒适，吸收了影响，并且耐用。我在外面穿着它们，人们偶尔会踩踏它们，但没有擦伤或眼泪。

我的痛苦：为了达到Boost提供的舒适感，在我的口味上，它在球场上太柔软了。尖锐的切割感觉有点“松散”，踩在脚后跟的边缘会屈服于可怕的毛茸茸。跳闸也感觉不到锁定，好像您可以感觉到自己的脚，而鞋子从鞋垫上稍微有点伸展。

尤其是在防御上，当您迅速做出反应，更少依赖动作和更多的本能时，您的鞋子需要与您在一起并提供快速的法院反馈。增强缓冲使这种反馈迟钝，使快速动作的自信程度略有减少。

The tread pattern isn’t as tight as on the Bounce: folks have said中等胎面图案在肮脏的地板上更好因为更紧密的胎面几乎抓住了一切。我在相对干净的木地板上的经验使我更喜欢更紧密的胎面，但这可能是要牢记的。

D Lillard 2，鲨鱼黑（$ 105）：Bounce cushioning, standard upper, tight tread pattern

经过10次左右的全部球场比赛，这很明显 - 标准的弹跳缓冲是更好的场上鞋。响应速度更快，比提升，切割，种植和停止反弹更快，反馈更快。“感觉到”法院更容易，而动作更容易执行。横向移动时，鞋垫感觉紧密地绑在您的脚和鞋子上。

Imagine the difference between running on either firm or loose sand: to a far lesser extent, that’s the difference between Bounce (firm sand) and Boost (loose sand).

Bounce still gives a decent level of shock absorption, but not as much as Boost. I’d gladly trade that for the responsiveness and stability you gain with Bounce, particularly at the corners. At those moments when you’re REALLY leaning as you run, because you’re chasing a loose ball or making a very tight cut, you need the corners of your shoes to be stable. With Bounce, it is, and you feel confident at pretty much every angle. Hitting the edge of the heel doesn’t “squish” the way Boost tends to.

紧密的胎面花纹是酷的厕所king and sticks well to the court. It’s not overly-sticky to where your foot catches or drags unnecessarily, but I didn’t have to wipe my feet at all during games. Again, your mileage may vary if you’re playing on a court that hasn’t been mopped in a while or rarely gets swept.

Conclusion:$105 Bounce better for the court, $115 Boost better for casual wear

I wanted a functional basketball shoe, and the standard Bounce version of the D Lillard 2 is better on the court. It’s rad being a Blazers fan and being able not only to rep the shoe of your team’s best player, but ALSO know that it’s a seriously great shoe. At $105, it’s an incredible value for its construction and function.

The Boost version is softer, making it an ultra-comfortable lounging shoe. The fact that you can play basketball in a shoe that comfortable is almost unfair, and you can, but for me it’s the better option for walking around town, going out, etc.

弹奏时，PrimeKnit和标准编织鞋面之间的差异不明显。两者看起来都很好，并在多次使用后保持良好的形状，并且都相当灵活。我注意到两者之间的功能没有差异，因此可以归结为偏好。

有了紧绷的胎面，您可以保持略微与法院的联系，但中型胎面也很好。有些人报告说，更紧密的胎面需要更多的清洁，但我并没有在合理干净的法庭上发现这种情况。

两者都是一个绝佳的选择，而且价格，您不能做得更好。如果您喜欢它们，您可能想购买多对一双；D Lillard 3s尚未发布，但是leaked photos suggest a drastically different shoe.
