I purchased these about six months ago and have worn them for practice approximately 2-3 times. There is some slight soiling, and the sole is a little damaged around the ball of the foot. I don't feel like the grip has weakened, but if you're concerned, please refrain from purchasing. Rather than having a super sticky grip, these basketball shoes had great cushioning, making cutting and jumping easy. I have the original GT Cut box, so please let me know if you'd like it. - Brand: Nike - Color: White - Design: Mesh Upper - Sole: Rubber Sole
