There's no lateral support, so def no ball.

My local Adidas store

I'll take pics later today, but you definitely can't ball in them... there's too much stretch in the primeknit.

Got my hands on the Blank Xeno LS early in Canada.  Primeknit is UB stretchy, and sizing is different than my pioneer Vol 1's... went .5 down on Vol.1 and went TTS on LS (preferred to have gone .5 up for looser casual wear but they didn't have my size).  Boost can be felt way more than the Vol...

Yep... I asked my local store to bring out the two pairs of 11.5s for me, and found the best fit by swapping the left from one box to the other... definitely inconsistent sizing.   For those that are having additional fit issues, skipping the second hole on the last set of lace holes on the...

I haven't heard any complaints about this, but I tried on a few sizes and noticed a really bad pressure point at the first set of lace holes (medial side) by the leather toe cap everytime I raised my heel.  The end of the toe cap presses on the round lace and the double lace holes are reinforced...

EQT 93/16's are out in Canada and easily available: http://www.adidas.ca/en/mens-equipment-support-93-16-shoes/BY9148.html This time around they have the continental sole. It's crazy how this shoe features premium suede, is cheaper than UB's despite having the same tooling, however doesn't...

Got these at full price from my local Adidas in Canada: These are like an easter/pastel multi-colorway woven upper... gonna swap out those pastel color laces with black ones just to man these up a little bit.  Fit is true to size on these.  Coming from the Kobe 9, Jordan 28, Jordan XX9... i...

looks like no continental logo on the white outsole either!

Is the name and number embroidered xelamander?   Damnit Adidas!  On the Mi site that customization looks ridiculously small, like 1/5th the size of above... definitely would have gone that route after seeing the above.

It's more of a grey than white on the leather trim edges.  Yes the jacquard is exactly like the aways with the black/grey pattern and I should have expected the same, however when you're customizing on mi adidas it looks more like a black on black pattern.   The black laces seem like the only...

My custom MiAdidas versions came in last Friday to me in Canada, ordered Feb 1, so just under 5 weeks. A few things: - Shoes came in a plain black with 3 white stripe adidas box and a little Mi Adidas bag - Overall craftsmanship seems fine - missing the Continental tire logo on the...
