text: For a volleyball enthusiast, I needed some volleyball shoes. Mizunos are the top brand that most women wear. I loved them when new. As they begin to lose grip and traction, that's when they actually start to wear whether its thinning in the laces or tears in the lace sockets. Overall I loved the amount of improvement these shoes provided and would definitely reorder, perhaps a different design. This model is probably the more cost friendly options.
