The Curry 3Z5 is an amazing shoe for only $80. The traction is phenomenal. The Micro G feels soft and responsive like the Micro G of old, and the fit was perfect. The only downside is that the heel area was a bit uncomfortable when I was breaking it in. Overall, the shoe felt amazing.

At a retail price of $80, the Curry 3Z5 is a solid shoe. I have no complaints outside of the dust pickup on dirtier courts, but that's just nitpicking since it still performed nicely.

The traction has a solid bite on clean courts. On dustier settings, it does pick up some dust, but it's not that frequent.

Overall, the traction is pretty good. You'll have no issues on cleaner courts, but dust does get stuck on dirtier courts. Make sure to wipe to maintain consistency.

The full-length Micro G feels like old-school Micro G. You feel very low to the ground with good impact protection.

There is a full-length Micro G midsole. It's thick in the heel and tapers off in the forefoot. There's a good amount of impact protection in the heel, but the forefoot provides plenty of court feel.

The heel area around the back of my foot dug into my heel a bit. It wouldn't hurt because of the padding, but it hindered my ankle movement a little bit. The lateral containment caused me no issues.

The length was perfect, and the toe box fits nice and snug. If it's a bit tight at first, give it some time, and it will stretch when it breaks in.

I had no issues with the fit at all. There was no tightness in the midfoot, and even the minimal bubbling in the toebox was unnoticeable.

There are areas of thinner rubber on the outsole. It probably isn't going to be the best for outdoor play.

The outsole rubber feels too soft to hold up well outdoors, but the price point makes it more palatable.

If you have a wide foot or want a roomier fit, I suggest going up half a size.
