Jordan Tatum 2

Traction
The grip has improved from the previous model, but it is still not enough. In particular, the midsole part is difficult to stop stably due to the lack of sole pattern. It is even more slippery in gyms where moisture tends to accumulate during cold seasons, so care should be taken. Overall, I felt that the traction was inferior to other recent basketball shoes.

Running
The midsole is equipped with pylons and front zoom, and the rebound power of Zoom Air is firmly felt. It is designed to be very easy to run, especially with propulsion when jumping or starting to run. However, the front and back angles are almost flat, so it is easy to use for those who prefer flat soles, but it may feel strange for those who prefer rounded soles.

Fit
The upper is made of reno weave, and synthetic leather is used around the opening and heel. The model released in Japan is designed to be wider, so the heel lockdown is solid and the foot rarely slips inside the shoe. However, because the upper is soft, you may feel that the support is insufficient when making sudden movements.

Overall 7.2/10
The traction of the Tatum 2 has improved since the last time, with the rubber part having better grip, but the foam material in the heel part is still unstable. Also, the running cushion had good rebound, but there was something strange about the transition part of the TPU plate, so I hope that this will be improved in future series.
