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

[GQK44]

adidas had to lay low after the FBI stuff hit. It was a huge black eye and it's not good to be running ads while your company is in the news for bad reasons.

That makes sense, but do they have to be low key with the shoes releases lol

The PK lows look really weird, Jaylen Brown had them on against the Cavs.

Been waiting months for the CE PK 2017 in black. Had money set aside and everything. Aaaaaaaand they stop at size 16...

 

[rfx45]

lows look awkward/weird

EG still wearing last years CE lows

 

[jaynev]

Marcus Smart PE's are clean. Traditional tongue? Non-PK?

 

[thapointguy]

This thread is quiet lately. Still no word on CE lows. Argh...

Nor mi adidas. Slacking, NBA started so put them up

 

[rjvq831]

Anybody known where i can grab extra laces for the CE 2016..

The 2017 CE PK is basically a low. The sock like upper offers little to no support and is just there for proprioception.

It's there to make you feel like you have support and give you the confidence of having a mid when in reality it's just a piece of flimsy fabric. If you fold down the upper piece, you'll see that it's a low. The only way I can see Adidas making this 'lower' would be to reduce the amount of boost.

Does anyone know where to get a pair of the Black 2017 PKs under retail?

 

[We Are Ninja]

I think someone mentioned Champs having a 20% off thing happening right now.

They're following the same cadence as last year's CE. Drop late July/early Aug. then pick back up around start of NBA season.

You guys thirsting for the lows will probably have to wait at least a few more months. CE 16 lows didn't drop until Feb.

The PK lows just don't look right. I really like the ankle collar of the 16s so much more than that...

 

[kobe824]

Agreed collar looks trash on a low

 

[rfx45]

because it's like they literally got a pair of scissors and just cut the collar down

 

[GQK44]

I'm in the minority, but I like the way they look

 

[goldmember]

They do look weird but I'm just hoping it performs great. I'm a low top dude since kobe 4

 

[rfx45]

I hope there's a non-pk lows

 

[jaynev]

I hope there's a non-pk lows

That would be nice. But yeah the collar just looks cut down. Proportion is off now, maybe just from that angle.

 

[kobe824]

Caught a deal on the 17 CEs for $70 shipped on eBay, was a size 10 instead of a 10.5 which I would prefer, how's the sizing in comparison of the CE Lows?

 

[nikeairon]

CE Vegas joints are still going for a grip...WTH
