    Lets Discuss The Industry

    My opinion on the state of the business as it relates to Basketball shoes....mostly..off the top   Nike: I would actually like Nike to take more risk... seems like their shoes are pretty simple, they're just applying new executional techniques to them....i.e. replacing leather with flexible...

    ** NBA Feet - '09-'10 **

    I like the D Howard Adidas...in the right colorway of course. That D-Wade dunk was Deescusting!...even better that Marv Albert was on the Mic. I think Wilson Chandler only wears the shoes when the Pony reps badger him...If I was Pony..I'd drop his contract and find someone else.

    Air Jordan 2010 Topics MERGED!

    Shoes looks like its very comfortable But What makes the shoe look odd is the differences in the shape geometry, from the peephole, to the odd topline...and the heel(one part clear) , and the weirdtape detail which covers up the eye puncholes. ...It just stops abruptly. its not really any...

    Nike Basketball and "AIR"

    Okay..whoever said Reebok pulled their shoes out of footlocker and other chain stores obviously doesnt know much about retail. If you have a product thatwarrants a demand, the buyer of that retail store will buy the product...if there is know demand..then the buyer wont pursue and purchase...

    Jordan's Night to Remember Turns Petty

    You should watch all 3 parts of his induction ceremony on youtube before you comment. I watched it and thought it was more hilarious than insulting... Bryon Russel was talking trash talking bout how hes gonna bust MJ's $#@@ ....Well thefinals hit in 97 (I think) and Mikes like "heres your shot...

    The ALPHAPROJECT (aka. Jason Petrie) Appreciation Post!

    I have to admit...the Lebron 7's look good....they look like a solid hoops shoe....but they honestly dont speak (that much) to or about Lebron..just fromthe outside looking in. Other than the max air thats about it. They could easilly take the LBJ branding off the shoe and ...well...its nothing...

    WHAT THE HELL IS CONVERSE DOING WITH WADE"S SHOE????????

    I think DWADE is being kind of selfish... .....When you sign to a company, theres a since of obligation that, if they pay you, you have to do certain things and perform certain activities....Justbecause you are in the Olympics doesnt mean that you shouldnt make the time to test out the...

    Ahh man, *sigh* at least you care. this is what I will say. the only reason we are having this discussion is because Wade isnt wearing his Sig and nobody knows why. Now theres this loose assumption that Converse isdoing something wrong...who knows. if Wade wore his sig while hes beasting the...

    WHAT THE HELL IS CONVERSE DOING WITH WADE"S SHOE????????

    I hear you with the whole "Chief Designer" idea....but IMHO...thats not really going to make a difference. Nike is a marketing machine,if they want to make it work all they have to do is spend a little more money on marketing... The whole chief designer thing will make "YOU" feelcomfortable...

    WHAT THE HELL IS CONVERSE DOING WITH WADE"S SHOE????????

    I agree that too many cooks in the kitchen is not a good idea. But putting a chief designer on his projects wont make a difference....remember , Tinker wasabout 50% responsible for the Wade 2 and everybody's favorite Wade shoe is the Wade 1......, ......The design of the Wade 1 was dope but it...

    WHAT THE HELL IS CONVERSE DOING WITH WADE"S SHOE????????

    it could be a ton of things -For one, I thought he wanted to regain the energy and play of 06(?) when he won the title...thats why hes been wearing his old shoes (superstitious i guess) - Could be just waiting until allstar to break them out - Wade is always included in the design process right...
