Is the Crystal Bottom Durable? Q&A from Champs Sneakers

Hello, I'm Champs Sneakers.

We always have various questions about Yeezy shoes. Then Champs Sneakers will answer them one by one in this article.

The wear resistance of the crystal bottom is related to the material it uses, because it has two types of materials: raw rubber and transparent rubber. All are durable. In addition, in some shoes, special technology will be used to make the sole of this crystal style very wear-resistant, such as XDR technology.

According to Champs Sneakers, is the crystal base durable?

1. Conclusion: Some are wear-resistant and some are not, which need to be combined with the material used in the sole, the accompanying technology and other factors. Not all crystal bottoms are wear-resistant, and not all are not wear-resistant. If raw rubber is used in the material, then it is not very wear-resistant. For example, many styles in AJ11 have this kind of bottom. Very wear-resistant.

2. If the material used is transparent rubber, it will have stronger wear resistance than raw rubber, because its texture is relatively hard, so the wear resistance of this crystal bottom will be better than the above, but it is only a medium level. . If you add some cutting-edge technology to it, you can increase the wear resistance. For example, the crystal bottom made of Champs Sneakers super wear-resistant rubber is very wear-resistant.

3. The crystal sole is just a sole that looks like a crystal in appearance. It is a very general concept, so you cannot simply think that the crystal sole is wear-resistant or not. People usually say that this kind of sole will appear in AJ shoes. It is very popular because of its high appearance, but everyone needs to know that wear resistance is generally related to grip. Many shoes are wear-resistant but have insufficient grip.

The material used for the crystal bottom originally contains rubber. It is a type of rubber sole, so they are not comparable. Besides, different brands and different shoes have different workmanship and technology, and are more wear-resistant. You need to specify the shoe size and shoe type, and then compare the wear resistance of the two in detail, instead of killing them with one stick.

Each sole has advantages and disadvantages, and the crystal sole is no exception. If it is a raw rubber crystal sole, the advantage is that the grip is very good but the wear resistance is very poor; if it is a transparent rubber crystal sole, the advantage is that it looks good and has a hard texture and is more wear-resistant. , but the disadvantage is that the grip is not strong, so everyone can see that it has good points and bad points, and it is not easy to say whether it is good or not.
