ADIDAS BBall Boost Thread - BYW, Crazy Explosive & Crazy Light & OTHER BBALL ADJACENT SNEAKERS

[rfx45]

Walls been wearing Kobe Xs and it sounds like his deal with Adidas has fallen through so it's hard to commit to a guy who might leave by seasons end.

 

[duke40]

Exactly - he left them. Although, to be fair, he wasn't THEM to begin with. He was forced to adidas when reebok quit basketball.

While the Crazy explosives might have the tech, they are ugly IMHO

I completely agree -- they are not good looking.

Sometimes I'm willing to overlook the looks if it's a shoe that's going to fit/play really well. Have a pretty good feeling about this The tooling is what has me most excited and the upper looks like it will be glove-like so they have my attention.


I think it's possible for them to drop some OK colorways.

Kyle Lowry PE. Not sure if the picture was taken during the game or it was shot during warm-ups *referencing the skipped last last hole*

That's true too but I think being pulled to Adidas was a bit better as Reebok was going nowhere and the zig-tech was a failure. I do say only a bit better because I don't think his Adidas sig shoes looked too great and from reviews, seemed like it was underwhelming performance-wise but at least it looked better than what Reebok had given him.

Of course looks are subjective but it's kind of hard to imagine anyone liking his Reebok sigs.

 

[duke40]

But he was a die hard reebok guy - they gave him his first camp invite when he was a nobody so he felt a loyalty. Agree, zig sucked, but for some reason he loved reebok.

I can't imagine another company giving Wall a Sig now

 

[xplosivejeff]

Chinese brand will give anyone a signature shoe...

 

[danwon]

Guess adidas don't care about wall that much, he'll prob join a Chinese company tbh

Li-Ning Way of Wall? lol

 

[the red model]

Wall should def get a sig with under armor. He's only getting better and they're a DC-Maryland based company. I think its a no-brainer but  I'm not a shoe exec lol.

 

[nickatnite]

I'm confused. these are supposed to be the shoe for Wiggins, but you can see Wall's symbol on the tongue?

seems they was gonna be JWall sig 3 shoe.... But since he is out guess they gave it to Wiggins.... But from what I seen wiggins had been wearing crazy light boost 2.5

Harden's latest PE.

Nice.

But now that I know about the outsoles, I'm done.  I was going to get the olive pair when Adidas did that sale, but the outsoles are too weak.  Fun shoe other than that.

 

[thapointguy]

Olives are half off (less if you have a coupon) on adc. But they don't have your size.

Love the way the CL 2.5s look.  Pretty solid across the board for BHM this year...

 

[thapointguy]

Yeah the color scheme is solid. Just don't care for the huge 773 on the tongue.

 

[iks mod]

Agreed -- there's gotta be a more subtle way to work in the number

 

[xplosivejeff]

Doesn't look like the BHM CL 2.5 is releasing to the public...all types of fails

[detroitonfire]

adidas is dropping the ball on releasing the Cl boost... Only 100 all whites no Christmas when it was the best out the pack and if no bhm it would be a fail
