Who should NOT buy this shoe from Adidas

The Adidas D.O.N. Issue #2 needs to be broken in, so it is not for those who want a shoe that hits the ground running. The Adidas Dame 8 is better suited for this kind of player. The Adidas Marquee Boost is also a good alternative.

Players who want a basketball shoe that has a more consistent grip and better outdoor playability may go for the Adidas Harden Vol. 6

There is NO breaking the bank with the DON Issue #2

Several buyers are happy that they can get the DON Issue 2 at such an affordable price. This is quite a pleasant surprise since not all major signature shoes are affordable; just think about those Adidas Hardens!
