Normally there are two types of courts in basketball. The first one is outdoor courts and 2nd one is indoor courts. As you know the outdoor courts and indoor courts have a difference in terms of friction and hardness. Some companies claim that their some model will work well on both types of courts but honestly speaking it is not possible up to the professional level.
Outdoor courts are very rugged and need the outsole rubber very hard so that its outsole will be long-lasting.
On the other hand, the indoor basketball court is normally we smooth, and a hard outsole will not work here. So normally the indoor basketball shoes have made with comparatively very soft rubber so that it has good traction.
Below points must keep in mind while choosing outdoor Basketball shoes.
Normally Brands are using durable XDR rubber for outsole.
