Are these the best pound-for-pound unsung performance basketball kicks in the 361° lineup? Let’s find out! Today, we’re reviewing Aaron Gordon’s AG4 in the Backyard Blue colorway. Just like the all-around do-everything signature athlete they’re made for, I believe these are the best bang-for-buck all-around performance basketball kicks on the market right now.
The uppers are made of breathable mesh reinforced with layers of TPEE threading, allowing for both foot protection and flexibility. Medial and lateral TPU strips, a half-bootie tongue construction, and a racer bucket seat-inspired heel counter provide lockdown and containment. The SOAR System takes care of the midsole cushioning and stability. Full-length Qu!k Tech foam delivers shock absorption and bounce, while the Soar plate ensures quick snapback and torsional stability. A unique radial herringbone traction pattern made of durable rubber provides long-lasting grip on both indoor and outdoor courts.
Inspired by the cosmic energy exchanged via black holes, the AG4 offers a sleek update to the series with all the 361° tech pack behind it. The blue base, contrasted with white/grey camo, gives it an aesthetically rugged look. This makes the 361° AG 4 the overall pound-for-pound best basketball performance shoe in the 361° line-up. Ideal for all-around performance and all positions on the court, they run true to size and retail at a fantastic value price of $198 AUD at 361sport.com.
