I agree with your son, black laces look so much better. the striped volt might be decent if you wanna go for the tech look, I am deciding myself but black for now.
For anyone asking about sizing, not sure if this makes it more complicated but I went TTS/jordan size in the previous bball 1s and it fit width wise but was a little long overall. Couldn’t score 11.5 this time but I got the trainers in size 12, they actually have less heel slippage and are more...
After 4-5 "your order has been delayed" emails, Adidas finally hit me with a cancellation today for my Confirmed app FOG Athletics Trainer. So dumb. If I had known Adidas was unreliable I would have bought directly from the FOG website the morning of the drop, I skipped figuring Adidas had me...
Looks like an eyeball or something hanging off the back to me. Originals didn't have them...completely encapsulated / no lightstrike I suppose? But this is up above the sole like, lightstrike heel cushion? Not feeling it.
Solefly still has collab merch available from their alternate lightning release...still matches this cw:

TTS. The 17s have a nice squared off toe box so good space for TTS. If you go a half size down you are gonna be smashing the tip of your toes to the front, not worth it.
I had those black 17s! They were my go-to work shoes for many many years. Super comfy and even with the bright *** chrome on the back, for the most part it worked as a low key office shoe without calling too much attention to them.
shout out to BAIT Honolulu! Announced on IG they were dropping them FCFS 10 min or so before opening at 11am today. Drove down, parked, no line, paid for my size, and left. The way releases should be!
Agreed...I mean they're a cheaper shoe than most signature shoes so I guess we can't expect the glue quality to be top notch, but I noticed the same on mine. And it might be mental but it seems like the all-star colorway is a little heavier than the Georgia debut colorway?
