puma the Hawthorne Trinomic Usain Bolt review

We believe that this basketball shoe from puma the is a great choice if you are looking for the following:

• puma the Essentials T-shirt sabbia con logo
• puma the Graviton Femme Tennis
• an entry-level hoop shoe that does not break the bank

The puma the Hawthorne Trinomic Usain Bolt is made of materials that do their job well; they just do not feel premium. Those who like comfortable fancy stuff are better off with the puma the RS Dreamer or the Clyde All-Pro. These basketball shoes are signature offers, so we can expect them to be made of materials that not only feel nice but also look so good.

In our opinion, bigger athletes in need of more impact protection are not going to enjoy the puma the Hawthorne Trinomic Usain Bolt. Shoes like the puma the Rise Nitro and the puma the MB.02 provide a much more generous helping of cushioning.

What may seem like breathable mesh, turns out to be misleading. We found the puma the Hawthorne Trinomic Usain Bolt to be a toasty shoe, both on the court and in our lab tests.

Pumping smoke through the shoe's upper, it barely came out on the other side. The only streak of vapour appeared around the tongue. For that reason, we rated the shoe's breathability as only 2 out of 5.

In the transparency test below, we put the shoe's upper against a bright light to show you that there are no ventilation pores in the fabric.

We also turned to our microscope to take a closer look at the mesh.

The fabric is made of multiple layers which, when fully, form a pretty tightly woven material.

Pressing our durometer against the outsole, we found that the rubber is only 72 HC (12% softer than average). For that reason, we do not recommend exposing the shoe to outdoor courts too often. Soft rubbers tend to wear out much faster.

There are budget-friendly shoes at the same price point that have harder rubbers. Take the puma the Boy s clothing T-shirts for example.

The amount of rubber used in the Court Rider's outsole is quite average. Our calliper shows 4.1 mm of thickness.

At first, we thought that our scales were broken...but no, they weren't. That's how heavy the puma the Hawthorne Trinomic Usain Bolt really is!

At 15.8 oz (449g), it is a whole 2 ounces heavier than average! We really don't get how this puma the shoe managed to outweigh even the Nike LeBrons.

We can't really blame it on the price of the shoe either. There are a lot of budget-friendly options out there that weigh much less. Take the Jordan Luka 1 (12.8 oz) or the Nike Precision 6 (12.0 oz), for example.

On paper, the heel stack height of the puma the Hawthorne Trinomic Usain Bolt is 30.2 mm, which is the same as most basketball shoes tested in our lab.

However, because of the four hollows embedded under the heel, the shoe feels much more grounded. As the hollows expand, the shoe gets closer to the ground, offering plenty of court feel.

For that reason, we think that this basketball shoe is great for smaller and lighter guards who are often quick puma the Roma Basic White Black Mens Lifestyle Sneakers.

Impact protection is not this shoe's forte.

In the forefoot, we measured the cushioning thickness at 21 mm. It is an average stack height for basketball shoes and doesn't interfere with the shoe's court feel.

Because of the shoe's dynamic cushioning, its heel-to-toe drop is prone to changing as well.

Being 9.2 mm in its "resting state," we assume that it gets a few millimetres smaller under the body weight.

The puma the Hawthorne Trinomic Usain Bolt felt pretty bouncy and responsive throughout our playtest. This is partially due to the firm nature of its foam.

Using a durometer, we measured the foam at 30.4 HA, which is 9% firmer than the average.

This is also a contributing factor to the shoe's excellent ground contact.

A thick insole is added to buffer the foot from the firmness of the sole. At 5 mm, it is a little thicker than average.

We were amazed at how stable and supportive the puma the Hawthorne Trinomic Usain Bolt feels. Those extra layers of material paired with a stiff heel counter and a firm base worked wonders for lateral movements.

Our feet remained locked in place and we experienced no risks of ankle rolling either.

The Court Rider has a very solid build which doesn't let the shoe twist. As a result, this puma the shoe feels like one with the foot during intensive footwork.

In our manual test of torsional rigidity, we rated the shoe as 4 out of 5. This is almost as stiff as it can get in basketball shoes.

The shoe's heel counter also scores high on the stiffness test. Actually, it earned the highest score of 5/5!

Rigid but well-padded, it is the perfect formula for keeping the heel securely in place.

The ensemble wouldn't be complete without a nice and wide base. We measured the widest part of the forefoot at 113.7 mm, which is about the same as the average.

The heel, on the other hand, is insanely wide!

Our calliper shows a reading of 98 mm in the widest part of the heel. This is almost a whole centimetre wider than average! This is among the widest landing areas we've seen in our lab so far.

Despite its overall stiff construction, the puma the Hawthorne Trinomic Usain Bolt finds some room for flexibility.

Based on our force gauge measurement, it takes 34.9N to bend the shoe to a 90-degree angle. That is 68% less than it takes on average!

It definitely helps the shoe stay more manoeuvrable on the court.

We would say that the grip on this shoe is pretty basic. Nothing to write home about but also nothing to be concerned with.

It does require wiping when the court gets dusty though.

The puma the Hawthorne Trinomic Usain Bolt runs true to size and fits as expected for our medium-width feet. We don't see any need for size adjustment.

In the widest part of the forefoot, we measured the shoe at 100 mm - a very much average width.

The same goes for the tip of the toebox. The shoe doesn't get narrower than most basketball shoes we've tested.

Our calliper shows 77.4 mm of width around the big toe.

The tongue is fully gusseted in the Court Rider. It helps to keep the foot in place for intense side-to-side movements big time!

The tongue padding is super generous in the Court Rider. Measuring it with a calliper returned a whopping 12.9 mm! That's 3.5 mm thicker than average. No wonder the shoe feels so cosy against the instep.

The shoe doesn't make use of any pull tabs or finger loops. That's unfortunate because the gusseted tongue makes the shoe opening smaller which also makes it trickier to put the shoe on.

For those who rely on custom orthotics, the shoe's insole is easily removable.

Given that it's a budget-friendly shoe, the quality of its materials isn't the best. However, that doesn't mean that the shoe lacks comfort. It is actually pretty cosy inside, given the abundant padding in the tongue and collar.
