I play dodgeball. I used to play on a turf field and used cleats. Now we've transitioned to a court so I needed some sort of shoe for that.

I'm by no means a shoe expert. I purchased the Precision 7's (after my work discount I got them for like $36). I was at Burlington Coat Factory today and saw the Sketchers SKX Floats and from what I can tell, it seems to be a better shoe.

But it's also much bulkier and heavier from what I'm seeing. I'm wondering if, for my purposes, if I'm better with the Nike's after all.

Edit:

1. Height & Weight: 6'3" 175lbs
2. Age: 33
3. Foot Type Requirements & Sizing: Narrow
4. Playing Style & Surface Type & Level of Competition: basketball court, dodgeball
5. Brand Preferences & Price Range: No brand loyalty, under $50

I come from an engineering background (embedded systems) and later in my career electrical engineering at an architecture firm.

I'm realising that neither are for me. I'm currently working part-time at Macy's and, while not where I want to be, I'm realising I'm not bad at sales (I'm pretty good at selling suits in particular).

The problem is, like most jobs, LinkedIn postings seem to want applicants to have 20+ years experience in AI 🤣, etc... Generally speaking most seem to be SaaS businesses (not a bad thing, just an observation).

On the flip side, Indeed is littered with MLMs like New York Life, solar sales, and commission only jobs.
