    So I'm after some 65z after my aerus are balding on the toe area after only a few months.
    65z2 for £65 but I worry that the rubber will be older and less grippy.
    Or £30 or so more for the z3.

    The grip on the aerus was amazing, but i cant replace shoes that often! I tried my 2 year old P9200ii and couldn't get any purchase, so I think it's probably worth going for the freshest rubber. Or having separate training and match shoes, but that seems a bit excessive.
    Any thoughts or recommendations on going for older models welcome.

    aside from the rubber, there is also the glue keeping the sole to the upper to consider
