Geesh, I mean there's gotta be another TInker out there somwhere right? Everything looks the same...
 
Do we have tech specs on these yet? Ja's PEs gotta have carbon fiber with the way he is leaping out the building. He is already an explosive player but LAWD he is FLYING!!!

A carbon fiber plate ain’t gonna give your average 23 yo a 44 inch vertical :lol:

People think Ja was born with that but he puts in a frick ton of work to keep him bouncy
 
There's probably intentionality when it comes to the similarities in appearances in nike basketball. More than anything, the shoe has to look like a nike so you're gonna have a big fat swoosh somewhere and a lot of the design of nike's shoes is worked around the swoosh. When millions watch on a TV screen, they may only be able to make out the logo and a color. Additionally, we've seen Morant play in mostly low tops so no surprise he wanted a low top sig. There are bound to be similarities because of the overall silhouette. And this is nothing new between signature or mainline. Let's look back in the past 10 years of nike history, hyperize/hyper rev/hyperdunk. Pretty similar. Their running line too - pegasus/tailwind/winflo. Pretty similar. This concept extends to other industries as well. It's what makes a subaru a subaru :lol:

TL;DR companies makes their products look kinda the same so you can recognize it as their brand
 
I guess he purposely broke out the purple/orange colorway against the Suns. I like this pair
 
I'd like Beaverton to showcase "historic" Nike cws on them next, even if it's only game worn PEs. Show me ultramarines, Breds, Michigans etc. Heck, i wanna see the Ja 1s in this Undefeated cw
