Tag: Adidas D Rose 9 Performance Review

 

Although there are without  special shoe boxes  than the other brands , the Adidas still released  ninth generation of signature shoes–D Rose 9for Derrick Rose. Even if this model of shoes without the Boost cushioning midsole , but this one still as the Rose shoes,so more  people will have more expectations for its performance!

 

For the traction :

The rubber material of the Rose 9 outsole uses ADIWEAR, which emphasizes wear resistance.The D Rose 9 outsole is a multi-directional line stripe with a change in the grain direction and style of the front and back foot areas (pink block). The material of the outsole is not sticky , but it has the ability to “bite” the floor unexpectedly. It has an excellent ability to be impatient, and it can be steadily and instantly caught after several tests. However,  the grip of for the lateral (left and right) grip just not as good as before and after.

We can see the words of ADIWEAR,

This is  a special rubber material with strong abrasion resistance of the Adidas .this kind of rubber used to in tennis and jogging shoes. So the traction of  D Rose 9 can really be described as “stunning”. Many shoe lovers have asked me about the effects of other brands of wear-resistant rubber, I have just nothing can recommend .But  wear resistance  of ADIWEAR is indeed a substantial increase compared to the average basketball shoes. After about three or four  time tests ， whatever the outdoors and indoors court,I found the shoes is durability ,it without any trace of damage.

However,we need to pay special attention to the influence of dust on the outsole. Although the outer layer of D Rose 9 is very wear-resistant, as long as the material is too sticky, the overall grip will drop very much.

 

 

For the cushioning :

D Rose 9 canceled the Boost midsole from the 5th version ,the Arose 9  used the Bounce midsole of the full foot. Bounce has had a good evaluation performance since its inception, but D Rose 9’s Bounce feels slightly harder. Compared with the same brand of Dame 4, it lacks Bounce’s feedback , especially in the forefoot area. Obviously, due to the thinner relationship between the midsole, the overall combat feeling is closer to the previous EVA or adiprene.

Bounce is an excellent midsole foaming material, but the biggest problem is the “thickness”. If it is too thin, it will lack the cushioning ability. If it is too thick, it will lose the feeling of sticking to the ground. I think  D Rose 9  will be more thinner, in addition to its inherent advantages of not too soft material, and D Rose 9 has a brilliant performance in the start-up response.

Fitting:

The D Rose 9 version is a little wide and long. There is a lot of extra space. In addition, the outer design from the front upper to the top of the tongue is larger (slanted), and the inner side has almost without filling, so that the tongue can not fit the instep closely.

We recommended that you can choose the small a half size .For me, the  small half size of the this shoe  is just fit my feet, and there is still a space in  front of the toe; The wide-shoes are recommended to try on from the small half; the narrow-footed shoe friends, because the extra space problem is difficult to solve, it is recommended to skip the shoes directly.

A BOOST-equipped sneaker will cushion your foot with each pound of the pavement, before it springs back and returns the stored energy into your forward momentum. Although it might sound like a bit of cheat, it’s really just the result of some very clever thinking.

 

The traction pattern is great .The rubber material of the Rose 9 outsole uses ADIWEAR, which emphasizes wear resistance. In this test, I tested it in outdoor court. Except for some dust, there is almost no wear and tear, I felt great for the grip . With the combination of price and comprehensive technology.

Overall,adidas D Rose 9 is nice shoe. In terms of functionality, the Bounce cushioning effect of the same thickness  as Boost, but the Boost will be more great, the material is nice  and all over the function is nice .

In 2008, I was fascinated by the NBA in my high school. When the ball won the first champion in that year , I was excited .Rose, his style of strength and speed quickly caught my eye. I was not  his fan at first , but after watched his game , I was attracted  by him .His ability to slash, rise, play defense, and lead a team reminded me . I was so excited to watched each game .

 

10 years gone, looking at Rose’s skills of basketball nowdays, although not as fast as ever before, but in the key battles, he still has been a key important player.Derrick Rose was well on his way to becoming the most lucrative athlete that adidas ever had in the world of basketball.

More importantly, Rose, who has experienced the ups and downs of life, is already an indispensable big brother in the Grey Wolf team.

Passing through the gorgeous and crazy years of youth, it is replaced by a calm and trustworthy charm, just like the new boots on his feet – D Rose 9.

 

 

During this year’s playoffs, Rose with  D Rose 9 came back, I will share with  you about  the experience of the new color of  D Rose 9 with the Summer Pack series

 

 

Infused with Primeknit and Adiwear technology, this D Rose selection is one of the most comfortable basketball silhouettes the Three Stripes has to offer. Aesthetically, it ushers in a vertical stripe pattern, as well as a number of stripes on its forefoot, heel, and toe.

 

 

This is the info of the Drose

adidas D Rose 9

Release Date: July, 2018

Style Code: BB7658

 

 

Materail : . The lines and folds in the material give the Rose 9 a definite casual-friendly look

D Rose 9’s upper is made of a special material , which feels a bit like memory foam. It can maintain comfort under the condition of satisfying many foot types.The test was completely uncomfortable, and the soles of the feet did not slip during the process after I take on in the fist hours

 

Here are more details as below :

Since D Rose 5 replaced the cushioning system for the first time, it changed from BOOST to BOUNCE.

 

For the warping  ,it is nice .A pair of shoes with excellent wrapping  must hold the soles of the feet firmly, and protect the feet well, but not too hard to cause pain, but also consider the ventilation problem caused by the material surface.

I am very sensitive to the slip phenomenon. The D Rose 9 has a very good shoelace system and the good material of upper .The part around the hole directly adopts the pressure line extending from the shoe body. So shoelace system sometimes causes a pressure on the instep, but  D Rose 9 upper just solves this problem , because of the materil reason.

 

 

 

After the model of D rose 5 , the adidas soothing technology BOOST was used in basketball shoes, which caused a sudden sensation. Later, many basketball shoes of adidas started to adopt BOOST. The Rose series shoes as pioneers continued to use this technology until D Rose 9 made a change.

 

Adidas used the Boost technology in basketball. Later, many basketball shoes of adidas started to adopt BOOST. But the D rose  just used the Bounce this time , so whats the difference between these material?

 

This attention to practical minimalism, while maintaining an aesthetic flair and upgraded functionality, fits nicely into the AlphaBOUNCE’s get-in-the-zone, get-in-the-flow story. You really shouldn’t be noticing your sneakers when you’re wearing them, and the Alpha ensures this type of subconscious comfort with its seamlessly integrated parts. A BOOST-equipped sneaker will cushion your foot with each pound of the pavement, before it springs back and returns the stored energy into your forward momentum. Although it might sound like a bit of cheat, it’s really just the result of some very clever thinking.

For me ,I was wearing D Rose 9 for various actions. The reactivity was definitely the most amazing , overall design of the upper  and the bounce cushioning are  my favorite part. Trying to change direction, shifting or even turning around can quickly convey the kinetic energy to the whole pair of shoes.I think that D Rose 9 is one of the most responsive of the series.

 

For the supporting : The wide base feels stable underfoot on every cut and move and the heel is locked in, keeping your ankle in its normal state.

The Rose 9 is as stable as ever before the part of  ankle. Because of the heel part added TPU , and the memory foam is filled on the ankle, but the thickness is not over-coated and maintains flexibility. The rest of the protection is from the huge tongue, so the feeling above the ankle is more comfortable and breathable than before.

For the traction : The traction pattern is great .The rubber material of the Rose 9 outsole uses ADIWEAR, which emphasizes wear resistance. In this test, I tested it in outdoor court. Except for some dust, there is almost no wear and tear, I felt great for the grip . With the combination of price and comprehensive technology, D Rose 9 is definitely one of the most effective shoes to be trusted in this summer.

 

Overall ,According to the color of the internet, it is mainly monochrome. This summer’s Summer Pack series brings more colorful feelings, especially the eye-catching outsole with three colors. I like it very much . The pure white upper looks fresh in the summer, followed by a pink Rose exclusive logo printed on the suede material to add texture, in short, although the appearance preference is more subjective .But I still want to say, I highly recommend  shoes! The great cushioning and material.

 

Derrick Rose and Adidas released  the D Rose 9 this summer, a lot of people guess that it will be popular whole summer. Derrick Rose was well on his way to becoming the most lucrative athlete that adidas ever had in the world of basketball.So a lot of fans got the chance to  buy one .

For me , I am so lucky  that got one . we will check it today .

This D Rose selection is one of the most comfortable basketball silhouettes the Three Stripes has to offer , because of  it used  Primeknit and Adiwear technology ,we will look closely .

For the material: It is totally different compare with  D Rose 8 ,the  D Rose 9 used the Primeknit and Adiwear technology， but the a super basic Foam backed Mesh upper, so the D Rose 8 will be stiff . The  Primeknit will be soft and comfortable .Then the ventilation, the rose 8 will be better, because of it cut outs throughout the whole upper that keep your feet dry and fresh, as well as improves flexibility for more natural movement.

Here is the picture that D Rose 8.

 

 

For the supporting : The D Rose 9 will be better then Rose 8, there is a leather stretchy material to protect the heel and anti-rolling over when you playing.But for the D Rose 8, Non- stretchy Mesh & a small rubber works tandem to secure your foot from rolling over the footbed.

 

For the traction: It used  a vertical stripe pattern, as well as a number of stripes on its forefoot, heel, and toe.But the grip just so so. The D Rose 9 is more comfortable and soft. I mean more bounce.we can felt a lot for the responsive  since they do use forefoot a lot.

What about dusty courts then? Actually it will collect the dusty well . but just forgot it ….. all of shoes will be collect the dusty .

Here are more details as below :

For the cushioning ,it used bounce instead of Boost.While Rose has been wearing the Rose 8 on-court, so the D Rose 9  also has been followed the  bounce tech, it is work well as usually.It is  improved responsiveness this time .The  caged BOOST laterally in the forefoot/midfoot areas for direct BOOST energy kick directly to your foot.So you can feel a lot when you do whatever you do .This trick makes forefoot incredibly responsive which is perfect scenario for guards since they do use forefoot a lot.

For me, personally, I do enjoy more the D Rose 9, sweet spot between great lockdown and lightness, weather to have rock solid lockdown & feel too contained.

A vertical stripe pattern  anywhere . 

 

Overall , they do look like adidas run out of ideas creating another mad silhouette for D Rose, it is different compare with D Rose 8 , but the bounce has been felt a lot , the great responsive and soft material . It is worth the price .
