Don Issue 4

InstaGripz

Don Issue 4

Price Range: $30-$70

Retail: $120

Features:

  • Durable
  • Strong Lockdown

Feel:

The Don Issue 4 is an ok shoe, especially when it comes to the feel. The cushioning is very stiff and it just has a cheap feeling on your feet. The materials feel flimbsy and cheap. The lockdown is a good plus to the shoe. Addtionally, the sizing is perfect when going for exact size. 

Traction:

The traction is by far, the worst part of this shoe. It has no squeak and will slip fast once dust is collected. InstaGripz will increase the traction and make it a good traction shoe. 

Pros: 

  • Price
  • Lockdown

Cons:

  • Traction Without InstaGripz
  • Cushioning

Overall:

The Don Issue 4 are an interesting shoe. I say this because there is nothing that makes them a bad shoe but nothing that makes them better than ok. Compared to past shoes in the Donovan Mitchell line, these are by far the worst but I think for the price, if you can find a cool colorway, buy them.
