I have worn the XXI's over 10 times and love the traction..Frankie, have you actually worn them? You are the first person I have ever heard of complaning about their traction. (yes, I have the xiv's and like them, but they do not hold water to the XXI
Best bball shoe I have ever worn, and I have been around a long time....No ventilation problems for me...Have played a few 3-4 hour sessions without issue..
Cook, I like you but let's call a spade a spade (and I know I will get heat on this one)....When James is Kobe's age, he will have surpassed all of his individual records and should have a title or two under his belt (which he was primarily responsible for, not a 330 lb center).
Looking forward...
Wear them!!! They are hoop shoes! I love the red pods as it has the soft zoom air..Give them a try and see for yoursefl...Black are a bit firmer feel...Really gonna be your own preference...but please, these shoes are made to ball in and are fabulous at that
I love the red suede one's./ Worn a few times to hoop and they rock.....I don't think anyone will have a problem getting these on Fri night/saturday. Anyone who pays $250 to them a few days early is a fool
Babyboo...You are out of luck..Smallest they made the black/maize was sz 8. I needed a 7.5 as these run big, but it was confirmed since it was a limited release, only 8 and up.. I can dfit in the 8's with 2 pairs of socks....sorry
I could care less whether Kobe wears the shoes colors released or not, but I am disappointed that they would market it as HIS 2006 all star shoe...Nike has dropped the ball over and over with their Kobe shoe marketing.
Hang in the Chad. Those xxi's will be nice and broke in from all the dribbling when you finally get your chance to cross over some fool and stick the J in his face....
