Official Adidas Derrick Rose Thread - D Rose 11

[tvuollo]

All blacks are fire!!! Now these I should cop.

 

[thapointguy]

You have a lot of shoes. You don't need promo codes, I thought you were rich. Lol jk

I wish the last part was true.

The upper on the all black looks close to the XX9

 

[justdoingme]

Boost looks lacking. Any better pics? Upper definitely looks killer.

 

[duke40]

Oh my my. I normally don't buy second pairs but these may hit the mark.

 

[yashin]

I'm really liking the black and white.

^Really like how that black and white pair has the stableframe and other pieces pure white to match the boost.  Just a clean look

What's the upper of those? Is it more comfy then the mesh ones?

Just from the looks, it looks like a tighter/stiffer mesh with an underlay -- I would guess not quite as flexible as the home version upper?  Only based on pics

 

[redrum3281]

which pair are you asking about @RedB13

 

[ginwae]

^^  Both of those colorways are nice!  If these rose 6's are as comfortable as the reviews say they are, I will be stocking up on them

 

[kaz109]

Any release dates leaked about the Xeno pair? I will probably end up with 3 pairs of these....damn u Adidas!!!!! Damn you! These and the JC3 has my full attention. Lol

I kinda wish it was the full on colorful snake design like the rest of the xeno shoes that were done but these are still so nice

waiting on ups like

 

[kingjay718]

Them Ballin Dead colorway sold pretty good.

 

[redb13]

I'm really wondering about the differences and which is overall better for a PG. Curry 2 or D Rose 6. How come that discussion hasn't come up yet, i couldn't find anything on the web lol. I'm still uncertain which i should cop next. Do any of you guys have an in depth opinion, would love to get to hear something from you all

 

[nickybarnes]

Schwollo has an in depth breakdown on his site. Basically said if you value traction curry 2 cushion rose 6. I was NOT a fan of the traction on the curry 1 on any kind of Dusty court. Clean courts they were good though. People are saying the curry 2 has better traction but after playing in the cl boost 2015abd being introduced to boost I'm going rose 6 all the way.

 

[deezyvsop2]

But even if and when the discussion comes up, it's not going to be a case of "better".  Some aspects will be better like traction and weight, but in the end it's going to be preference, especially if both shoes perform well.

Wait for Curry 2 reviews to start dropping as Rose 6 reviews are already out.  Then make a choice.

 

[duke40]

Mine should be up Sunday night. You're right Deezy - if you like adidas and boost, the rose is the best. If you like the Curry 1, the 2 is a good evolution.

 

[nikekid6]

hmmm the sizing.. Im a true 10 but lately been going 9.5 in adidas hoops.(lillards, previous rose models) i went with a 10 in these. they have room at the toe but my foot isnt moving forward or back at all. its this awkward mental thing lol. theres room but no movement if that makes any possible sense.

 

[redb13]

Being a fan of ChiTown i couldnt help myself. My first Adidas shoe, i thought i'd go ''all in'' and customize one. What do you guys think?
And also, nightwing has listed the shoe to be 15.09oz, in the weartesters' review, which is like .. i dont know, not so heavy for me? (would you guys consider that heavy..?) Since i currently play with clutchfit drives(1), and i just weighd them and they are like 14.8. The difference is like close to none. Not even 10 grams.

And seeing some reviews on the curry 2, the traction is beast(although they said the same for D Rose 6, but needs wiping). I have no idea about the upper material, as far as which is better(mine are textile[which is like the home colorway basically, mesh]). The cushioning.. well, we all know the boost is right now the most comfortable and responsive, as far as i have read all those reviews. And you are not sacrificing court feel? not much i'd think. But since D Rose 6 is wearing them, and he is a dude with crazy needs(cutting, speed) i think thats the right go to shoe for PGs right now. My opinion. 
Hopefully i ll get my first dunk in those shoes
