Cage 2 or Barricade 2015

[Amalhotra]

Really flat foot here, Too flat for yonex and pretty much too flat for the ballistec, had to open them as much as possible. Play about twenty hours a week, whats more comfortable and durable

If you have really flat feet, you should probably remove the stock insoles and get aftermarket insoles designed for flat feet.

As for the two shoes you mentioned, they are on opposite ends of spectrum when it comes to fit, so your choice will be easy. If you have wide feet, the Cage 2 will feel more comfortable. If you have narrow feet, you'll like the Barricade 2015.

Never tried them on court. They are too wide for me. On Youtube you can see the TW review. They all said positive things about its durability, so I'm guessing it's good.

cage 2 is basically the same as the cage..minus a very fragile air bubble in the heel.. some pairs would burst a few weeks in.. so i would say the new cage is an improvement.. the lunars are more durable..but more expensive. neither shoe will last anywhere near the 6 months..which is both good and bad considering they are guaranteed. i wish they would last 5 months. perfect blend of time on the court and within the parameters for a new pair..and the possibility to go through only 2-3 pairs in a year.

Contemplating between these two kicks for my go to"summer beaters.I have duck feet so im worried the B9's will be to snug,even after a lengthy break in.On the same token im worried the higher ride,and horrible traction in the 2"s the is worth the sacrifice.We all know barricades are A1 when it come to traction_grip.going to go with the white colorway with either brand I choose.
QUESTION are the 2015,s as narrow as b7s.And comfortability in both from what I've read is there,for both models.Sure ill own both before the year is done,just wondering what shoe to murder first.#dailygrinder
Thanks for any feed back.

I have flat feet and really like my Barricade 8. The other Barricades I have tried have been too narrow, i don't know about the 2015 though.

I third or fourth the suggestion on the insole. That is the main thing going to help with the flat feet. That aside, I felt Nike really messed up with the new cages. It use to be really low to the ground and comfortable. New it feels really high and unstable. The Barricade 2015 on the other hand was very nice feel when I've tried it briefly. It is very light yet feels very supporting and solid with mobility.

I used to wear the B7 and I tried the 8+ and 2015 at the store. I thought the B7's were long on length and slightly narrow in width. The 8+ was short on length and medium in width. I found the 2015 to be closer to the B7. The 2015 was true to length and slightly narrow in width.
