Palmers

are the printings on the insoles of the palmers gonna fade? thinking of doubling the insoles or maybe just completely replacing them to prevent them from fading.

You really care about the insoles?
Maybe use some clear tape over the print to preserve it?

I do the same thing man so don't feel bad. Little pet peave of mine is to take the insoles out and replace them just so they can stay new. Tracking my Palmers as we speak. They should be here by Saturday. Only thing is.... it is raining here for the weekend so I want be able to sport them SMH....

i'm def need some tire shine, i'll prob wash the car and shine the shoes at the same time  i kid i kid but could you put amorall on these like people do to foams?

Wow....do you really put armor all on your foams. I laughed when I seen the a YouTube clip of the guy in the kitchen spraying his pine green foams with armor all. I started to do the same with my pine greens. Then I thought about how'd they be a magnet for dust and dirt. Plus I didn't know if the chemicals in the tire shine would damage the foam.

I don't but I've seen people talk about it in the foam thread from time to time

The insoles of the Palmers look like they will fade with wear but to me they weren't anything special where I would worry about that.

Rubber City's do look good, last few sets of pics especially.

 

Still a pass though for me.

Do you guys think we'll see discounts on the 12s like we did on the 11s? I'm debating if spending $160 on a pair of Court Vision 12s is a good idea or not...

Saw them in person today...great concept and they look mean in person, but the nubs...just kill em IMO. And the posite is the same material as the wheat and had ash marks just from being in the box.

 

[armokidd]

Rubber city pair look real good, I don't get the hate for em...will wait to see if I can cop on discount worse comes to worse cop from NDC

Hopefully we catch someone slipping so we can make some noise.

Pretty much the same hair line!

Between the avy and the comment, it looks like someone is strangely obsessed with LeBron's hairline..

Nope...just funny as hell to me!

It's cool to see everyone eating on Palmers and people helping people out.  

I know there are some folks out there mad about Nike/JB overproducing releases lately, but I'm not one of them.

Man I'd love a pair of these to hoop in at sub $100 but they aren't budging off that retail tag . At this rate, the XIV needs to come out for that to happen.

Anybody know some good insole replacements for the 12, mine are literally like paper thin from playing in them and starting to hurt my feet.

 

[fc1114]

I use insoles from http://www.roadrunnersports.com/

I have flat feet so I use a support insole ($29). In some of my shoes, this insole can cause squeaking as the hard carbon arch piece can rub against a part of the shoe's interior, so I just use baby powder and/or petroleum jelly for a little lubrication to quiet down the squeaking.

If you want a cushioned insole try this:

not the best on foot but nonetheless its an on foot pic LOL

 

[shoestowalkin]

if the back tabs on rubber city get folded on are you just **** out of luck?

should i pull the trigger on 250 after tax for elites, or hold out for something better? i need them.

Both are very clean, a little snug fit cuz of the sock liner but very comfortable. I couldn't get my size on the USA, gonna try to size swap. I love the lemonade outsoles on the Lebronold, the color is subtly bright and blends very well. They'll be perfect for the hot summer nights lol

you know the USA's are still available online...right?
