ADIDAS BBall Boost Thread - BYW, Crazy Explosive & Crazy Light & OTHER BBALL ADJACENT SNEAKERS

Nic Batum sprained his ankle yesterday. He switched to CLB 2.5 when he was wearing Crazyquick 3s all season. Jeremy Lin stuck with his Crazyquicks ever since he tweaked his ankle early in the season. These shoes are bad news.
and harden won't make it out of this series.
 
Those crazylight boost 2016 will be my first non signature Adidas basketball shoes since...well forever lol [emoji]128512[/emoji]
 
Nice Duke. Wish I could find that deal.

Very intrigued by the CLB2016s and Rose 7s. Likely will hold off on other adidas shoes until those drop.
 
I'm gonna end up passing on the Harden Home PE and wait for the CLB 2016s.
Might not buy another Lillard 2 lol

That's right, come to the Dark Side.  I've been feeling this way since we saw initial pics.  They're finally expanding boost in bball.  Can you imagine if Nike only had two Zoom based shoes every year and one of them was heel zoom only?  It's about time.

It really is about time that adidas has implemented Boost and full length at that on more shoes. The skimpy offerings to date have been pretty annoying. I keep thinking about getting a pair of the Rose 5s or 6s, but keep passing because of upcoming Rose 7s and CLBs. I may eventually buy a pair of the 6s on steep discount because they are very good performance shoes.

I wonder when Nike and JB are going to figure out they need to drop their prices and up their cushioning game. The KD9 looks like a step in the right direction. These very good offerings from BB, UA, and adidas can only help...

Woke up to 28C weather and got my CL2.5 Harden PO today, I'm going to call it the Raptors CW. And yeah they are still a ***** to get on when new. These will be one of my casual summer shoe for sure but wondering how long before my feets get sweaty in them. Again the CW is just pristine. Go Raptors!

just got back from an adi warehouse.

the CLB16 are an interesting shoe.

my concern is the sole rubber feels more plastic than rubber.

also looks very different. will wait for reviews

Oh wow, Samples? No pics?

Plastic doesn't worry me, THAT much.. could just need some break in. How were the materials and silhouette?

Boost is in abundance. Kinda sits really high for how low cut the shoe is.

Synthetic materials
 
adidas warehouse in USA? So does that mean they are a finished product and to be released soon? I was hoping they can make the silo and little higher similar to the CL 2/2.5 because the photos ive seen they are too low like Superstar, Vans low. Were you able to try them on? If yes, how stable is the full length Boost? Did it feel like you are going to fall like walking barefeet on a waterbed (remember those?).
 
Didn't get to snap any pics but I saw an all white boost version of the John Wall 2 at a local adidas outlet. Is this nothing new?

Boost seems stable. Some area are caged in for support by what seems to be a stable frame
