Introducing the Kicks On Court Finder
The Kicks On Court Top Ten List is a quick and easy way to see the year’s top overall performance models but when it comes down to picking your next pair of on-court kicks… it takes a little more personalization.
Now you can narrow down your Kicks On Court options by using the Kicks On Court Finder. Search by Brand, Best Overall Score, Recently Added, Traction, Cushion and more. This will allow you to easily compare sneakers with each other, sort through all of them by the attributes that you care about most and there are links to the original Performance Reviews in the event that you want some more detailed information.
The Kicks On Court Finder will always be available to you once I add the link to the menu bar at the top of the site and I will update it once new Performance Reviews are published. We work hard to make KicksOnCourt.com the best that it can be and I’m proud to say that we are doing a pretty darn good job of it without costing consumers a dime.

10 Steps to Becoming a Sneaker Designer
This list is something I not only found interesting but also very useful.
Plenty of sneaker enthusiasts are into kicks for one reason or another but the basic thing that it always comes down to is design. Functional design, fashionable design… hopefully both. This is really where things get started. Without visual appeal, most will overlook anything… not just sneakers, literally anything. If you’re food doesn’t look good then it’s unlikely that you will eat it.
So, if you were an aspiring designer without a clue as to what to do to get started, head over to Complex and study up as Brett Golliff shares 10 Steps to Becoming a Sneaker Designer.
First Impression: Under Armour Nano G Lightning
The Under Armour Nano G Lightning were originally slated for an August 2012 release and for whatever reason, they didn’t make it to retail. I don’t know if they ever will but either way… these are going to get some playing time.
UPDATE: Sole Collector had just sent me a Tweet stating that this shoe was scrapped and will NOT be releasing. I appreciate the good people at Sole Collector for reaching out to me and letting me know. If only I could receive this type of info directly from the source instead of speculating then things would go a lot smoother.

Under Armour Anatomix Spawn – Another Look
Here is another look at the upcoming Under Armour Anatomix Spawn.
I can’t wait for these to release. The upper looks amazing from a performance standpoint and we all know how much I enjoy Micro G. I’m mostly curious about the outsole and traction. Even though the coverage is minimal, they’ve covered all of the strike zones so you should be covered… at least that’s the plan, right?
Take a closer look after the jump and let me know if this is something you’d consider hooping in.
Under Armour Nano G Lightning – Available on eBay
The Under Armour Nano G Lightning was first spotted on Kicks On Court and we haven’t heard anything about them since.
