Comments: These shoes are like the V, they may take a little break in and uppers may not be as durable, but other than that they are the same. I didn't have any problems with the forefoot and i felt that the zoom air was on the forefoot, but that may be because the last shoe i used was the cage 2. Only thing that i was a little picky about was that the flex wasn't on the exact part that i want it to be, but it doesn't stop the performance in any way. Just for the reference the Ballitec 1.3 has lunarlite on the forefoot.

Comments: These shoes do not and I repeat do not offer the same support that the Vapors do because there is no Zoom Air in the forefoot. Having said that I have developed tendonitis in ball of my right foot. Having Zoom Air in the forefoot makes all the difference between these and the Vapor IVs and Balistec 1.3s.

Comments: Comments: A very nice shoe in my opinion. I just burnt through a pair of the vapor VIs in a month and was looking for another lightweight shoe. The arch support is medium, and the shoe has a very stable feel to it. The weight is perfect, very fast but not flimsy on your feet. Not as expensive as the new vapors, but a lot better performance and durability. Highly recomended.

Comments: Nice alternative to the Vapor Series. I don't quite like the design and the arch is a little too low. But that's just being a little nitpicky. Overall, it won't last very long but it will give you your money's worth.

Comments: These shoes fit great, feel light on the feet and are very stable on the court. However, after less than 3 mos wear, the outsoles are so ground down, that they have become unwearable. For the price I wish they had lasted longer. My next purchase will have a 6 month outsole warranty.
