Any basketball shoes with a nice, comfy toe box? My toenails seem to always chip off after balling... I ball in Kobe 3s and Hyperdunks. Just recently, some
dude jumpstopped right on my toe, and the nail died
Also, will double-socking help with the comfort? Thanks for the advice.

thats er, really strange....i would think Kobe 3's and hyperdunks would be good, maybe go to some place like athlets foot and they can fit a shoe that
would suit ur feet

don't really know what you're trying to say man...
if you mean that you want a wide toebox, lebron VI's have wide toeboxes as do most adidas shoes (i recommend the creators) but if someone lands on your toes well then someone lands on your toes, you can't really prevent that |

Damn... maybe something with a steel toe, like a Caterpillar boot?
Maybe the issue isn't the shoes... I had the same issue with my toe nails coming off. I thought it was because I was jamming my toes into the front of the shoe, but I finally realized that wasn't the case. What was happening was that when I was stopping really hard, the pads of my toes would grip the shoes, but momentum would keep my foot moving forward... so essentially, the force was pulling the toe/skin away from the toe nail. Pretty gross when you think about it that way... but that could be a possibility.
