I haven't played an entire game yet but from the practice I've done the shoe provides comfort and support. However, the black & red pair does run small; I'm 7 1/2 and bought an 8 1/2 which fits nicely. I'd also note it was a tad narrower than I expected (3 1/2 inches at the widest part of the shoe) but that doesn't bother me as I have narrow feet.
