adidas D.Rose 4?

[zack54attack]

Will this be the shoe that Rose sports when he finally makes his return?

hopefully not. thats one ugly pile of crap

 

[supremekickz]

Hopefully those are fake because those look like a watered down version of the 3.5! Will wait for better pics and a more recognized source.

 

[dipsetgeneral]

Smh. Plain and boring. These are the actual pics because I saw catalog pics of the 4s a few months ago and they were drawn out very similar to what we see up there.

Adidas is failed to make basketball shoes...

The DRose line was looking good, but now all their shoes are starting to look the same....

 

[dthangel]

Yea i was highly disappointed as well. They look too much like the 3s. Im a huge fan of the line but if these are indeed the 4s then ill have to pass as of now. Its like they got lazy and just used the same shoe instead of doing a redesign

From the picture a rep showed, I don't believe these were the 4s that I saw then again it could have been the ankle straps that were in the shoes in the picture. I remember them looking more futuristic and I think they will be $150 - $160.

They should've just saved the .5 for future sig shoes. The 1.5 was/is a really good shoe, and they should've just called it the 2 an save it for the following season.

They're alright. I like the home and away colorways best so far. Adidas should've had a better design though. I think the 3.0 kills this shoe looks wise. Also, they should've debuted bounce cushion in a basketball shoe in the rose line

 

[moneymike9]

i like the mint/grey colorway...but, these don't really look much different from the 3s imo, aside from the 2tone look :\

 

[jaybsneaks]

His first joints are the best

Trash, plain trash...I hated, I hate and I will continue to hate that pathetic brand...I can proudly say I never put their "products" on my feet, ever, in my life.

I remember when I got my Rose jersey-shirt few years ago...they put their cornball logo on the left side of the chest...I tried to grind off the logo with my shaving razor, but it didn't go off so I slapped an X with 2 black vet wraps over that.

Anyway, they disgust me. Look at what they've done to fan gear....look at the damn All-Star gear jerseys from last couple of years...I mean jesus christ talking about sub-par generic trash...This has nothing to do with me being an old head and this is not my tryin to say "back in my days, **** looked better"....it's not a matter of opinion, it's a fact. They're disgusting, they ruin everything they put their hands on...

.........GAWD!!

Rose is one of my favorite players but I still can't stomach the fact that he duped himself with these bozos FOR LIFE....such a tragedy....

Not only did they make him ugly *** lookin sneakers that I would never buy despite being a fan...but they also probably ruined his career, I'm more than 100% sure his knee injury is directly correlated with that piece of generic trash that some people refer to as "Derrick Rose signature shoe".

Disgusting. Can't wait for 2016. It's so far away...imagine all the bland and generic looking trash-designed products these guys could pump out over 3 year period? Sends chills down my spine.

Worst gear out of all USA pro sports. Whoever disagrees is a lame. And I feel sorry for  these lil kids growing up to this - they think this **** is the design-aesthetic standard, this **** will be their "Mitchell & Ness throwback" 10 years from now, lmfao

Only thing good about Derrick sig line is the logo. I bet Derrick is gonna leave Adidas soon.

I wish...but how can you get out of that kind of contract? He signed for life, right? Anyway, if Rose smartens up and realizes that adibas (I aint typin their name) is designed to ruin careers.

Don't believe me, you think I'm....*cringe*.. HATIN

OK then

T-Mac

Garnett

Arenas

Kevin Ware (that "my bones outta my legs" NCAA guy)

Hey Tom23, you're way too angry over a brand. It's not that serious. Players have gotten injured in shoes from every manufacturer. How would making shoes designed to ruin careers be beneficial for a brand? Just think before you type my man. You need to calm down and reevaluate what's important in life because this hate over something this small like a sneaker brand is bad for your blood pressure fam. If you want older jerseys (which I like better as well) then go buy some old ones.

Well I did go OTT a lil bit, I don't take sneakers "that" seriously at all...but still, that won't change the fact that I refuse to wear that gaudy brand. The fact that I have 2 of their t-shirts is *S.A.Smith* blasphemous enough already...

I just find their whole style so generic, it disgusts me. Also, I can't say I cosign with the political views of their founder.

I can't believe people still think that the brand of shoes you wear directly correlates with injury.

http://www.nicekicks.com/2013/04/06...he-correlation-between-brands-and-injuries/2/

Awkward landings, unfortunate incidents, and disastrous missteps are more common in everyday life than one may think. When watching sports, and ultimately sports injuries, it is important to understand the years of studying, testing, and reworking that occurs prior to a shoe being released. These are only a small sampling of recent examples of injuries that have occurred on the basketball court. The range of shoes worn during injuries, and how they occurred is enough proof to conclude that It’s Not The Shoes.

It's super ignorant to blame a brand for causing injury. Don't be blinded by the swoosh!
