What's good everyone?  Ever since I've branched off from playing in basically only Nike or Jordan to trying some great models from Adidas, UA and then Brandblack, I have been curious about pretty much any brand that puts out a new performance model.

These guys are Tesh Sports -- currently they offer baseball cleats, just released 3 basketball models and have some other stuff on the way.  The 3 basketball designs have some similar design cues to other brands, but I don't think this is a bad thing.

This thread may be a dud, but I know folks who enjoy checking out new brands may be interested.  I have a pair of the Terrestrial Lows on the way and really looking forward to trying them out.  They have a 30% off deal going on right now for Black Friday - Cyber Monday.  It ends TONIGHT so if you want these super low prices, order now.  Apparently the mids/highs are a little roomy and the lows more TTS -- I will chime in on sizing when my lows arrive.

Outsole/midsole is the same for the 3 models

@SoleSeeker23  wasn't sure if this warranted a thread but oh well.  I just ordered the Terrestrial lows in a .5 size down.  Hope they fit.  If not, Tesh said they are good in honoring exchanges.  Stand up communication so far.

Can't wait to get these in

I saw Nightwing's pick up video that featured their shoes.
Im going to order the Trooper and the Terrestrial in the colorways you posted.

I decided to wait due to the size differences...Excited to hear how they fit! Colorways look clean as well.
 
^my pair of the terrestrials is out for deliv.

Will post on sizing tonight, work for another couple hours about then I'm home
 
Just got back and slipped on the Terrestrials -- Had heard that the mid and high models were advising half size down.  Being a narrow footer I had a feeling the lows would be the same way for me personally.  So I ordered .5 size down

Space-wise in the toe box from width/height feels awesome.  These things are damn comfy!  They really just hug the foot nicely with a good amount of padding.  Stock insole is super nice and just walking around, they flex really nicely at all spots and the heel feels like it will be well supported.  The underfoot flexibility and comfort of the fit/upper reminds me a lot of the Kobe 8 and 9 EM -- however, this dual density cushion setup should last longer than lunar.

The only thing that's bothering me is that they are just a hair too short in that half size down.  It's a shame because every other part of the fit in the .5 down is about spot on for me.  I'm stuck -- can't tell if I'm going to have issues jamming the toes on stops.  Can't go play in them tonight but I'm going to walk around in them a bit.

What I may do, is just give these size 11s a try and if they give me trouble, I'll just keep them as training shoes.  Besides... I paid 55 shipped from these guys which I already feel is like robbery

Thinking of pulling the trigger on some Terrestrials. Will probably go TTS since my foot is terribly normal (aside from being flat)
 
Thanks for the info, iks mod iks mod .
I typically wear 11.5 to 12 in basketball shoes.
The few pairs of 11s that i have fit the way you described the Terrestrials.
I think I'll go with 11.5 on both pairs.

Tom -- I think these will be good for normal/flat footers.  I'll try to post some comparison pics when I get a chance
 
@Jayou39  glad to provide some input -- still haven't had a chance to hoop this week... work has been crazy and dealing w/ a slight health issue.  Will report back asap though when i do play in them

@iks mod, did you ever get a chance to try these out?
I'm mostly wondering about the fit.

@Jayou39  unfortunately, I haven't been able to try these out yet... just finally getting a handle on the health thing which I'm grateful for so I'm anxious to get hooping again.  

From walking around in them, my advice if you go with the Terrestrials would be to go true to size.  This half size down pair is so close for me... just feel like it's a hair too short at the end.

I can't speak for the Trooper or Trigger
 
anyone cop those triggers yet? 

looks like there's a pre-production pair (pretty well worn) at one of my local thrift shops for $10...am not sure if they'd be worth it
 
I know this isn't really allowed in the forums, but if anyone would be looking for the black terrestrial pair in size 11, I have access to a pair for very cheap.  PM me if interested
 
How are these for ball? Traction is bad on the first 3 models? The 3 new models looks to have a new traction. I like the blue low top pair on their website. I'm interested in seeing how I'd feel playing in shoe with a wider toe box.

Idk how but I just now heard of this brand. Ive been wearing merrells and trainer 1.0s off the court. My fav ball shoes tend to be minimal, low to the ground with flexible midsoles like the kobe 8, 9 and cfd for feeling so natural/smooth.
