The Adidas Pro Vision has the makings of a great on-court performer. The cushioning, materials, fit, support, and lockdown all do their job wonderfully. The Pro Vision’s only drawback is its hit-or-miss traction. All things considered, the Pro Vision is still a good budget offering from Adidas. If you play outdoors and clean indoor courts, then this basketball shoe is a no-brainer.

Profile of the Adidas Pro Vision
These Adidas basketball shoes have you covered whether it is game day or just any day. Designed with a ripstop midfoot cage and full-length Bounce midsole, the Pro Vision combines streetwear-inspired style with innovative performance technologies.
The Adidas Pro Vision boasts a ripstop midfoot cage for a locked-in feel, a tailored performance collar for flexible support, a full-length Bounce midsole for responsive cushioning, and herringbone traction for unrivaled grip.
Performance
Cushion. The Adidas Pro Vision is equipped with a full-length Bounce midsole for responsive cushioning that lasts all game long. The flexible midsole offers an improved court feel and added comfort as you attack the basket.
Traction. These Adidas basketball shoes have a durable rubber outsole for increased traction on the blacktop. The outsole features a herringbone traction pattern that provides an unrivaled grip on any court surface.
Fit
Length and Width. The Pro Vision reportedly runs true to size but is a bit tight at the forefoot. Wide-footers are advised to try the shoes in the store to get the right fit. Normal and narrow-footers may order their exact size.
Lockdown. The Adidas Pro Vision has an adjustable lace-up closure that is integrated into the shoe’s midfoot cage. The ripstop midfoot cage offers lateral stability and ensures a locked-in fit.
These mid-top basketball shoes are also equipped with Achilles pillows and a ¾-cut performance collar for added comfort and flexible stability.
Material
These Adidas basketball shoes feature a textile upper for lightweight support and maximum breathability. At the forefoot, a high-abrasion toe cap provides added durability.
Style
Taking cues from classic models, the Adidas Pro Vision features a midfoot cage that is reminiscent of the EQT line. "For Marquee Boost and Pro Vision, we looked to past icons for inspiration," Adidas Farm Creative Director Denis Dekovic said.
On the tongue, the Farm’s “11222” zip code is embossed as a tribute to the city of Brooklyn - the world’s basketball mecca.
