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

2016's are great for guards/forwards. Don't even notice them on feet while playing, to me that's the ultimate goal. New go-tos.

Got my pair in yesterday. Really nice shoe. Too bad they have a really noticeable orange/rust stain on one of the shoe's, definantly want to get another pair. Really comfy casual shoe for the summer.
 
So is this the best performing low top basketball shoe ever? Waiting to grab the black/grey pair
 
Sounds good so far, waiting on review of durability for outdoors and a primeknit colorway to drop...
 
Got my all white CLB2016 this morning. Went half size down and the fit's pretty good, if a bit snug, though I tend to like a bit more room in shoes. Boost is definitely firmer and less squishy than on the D Rose 6, but pretty comfortable, still. Haven't played in them yet.

For the sizing on these, definitely size down half a size. Link below is a photo comparison with my Ultra Boosts. US8.5 in UBs and US8 in CLB16.

so I wear 9.5us in UB but im a wide footer

I wear 9.5us on all Jordans except for the Jordan 1 which I usually buy in a size 10us

now im torn to buy this CLB16 in a 9US because maybe it will hurt my toe

get it in a 9.5US and there will be a heel slip when i play basketball

This is one of those shoes that your feet have to fit perfectly in IMO.

I would get a size 9.5. I have the same problem. I could feel my heel potentially slipping with my normal size 11.5 but I can remedy that by lacing them differently, changing the insole or double socking if I have to. If you size down and they're too narrow that doesn't leave you many options.
 
So I just got my white CL16 .5 down. I normally get a 10 in kobes and have quite narrow feet but even then, I'm finding these very very snug. As in about 2mm between by big toe and the end of the show. Is anyone else having this? How much room do other people normally leave?
 
You want to have at least half inch of space in between as your feet will expand over the course of the day. If you bought from a place that accepts free returns and you are using them to play in, test them out to see if they break in and make sure when your toes hit the end they don't get bruised or even bleed. I wore my Kyrie 2 and I had no wiggle room, my pinky toe was bleeding at the end :x

I need to find a spot local that has them so I can try on. I think I may just go true to size and switch out to the thinner insoles that they regularly use unless they are the same ones already in these.

FNL has all sizes restocked of the all white pair but removed the black/white.
 
Nightwing says the jacquard is just as good as the PK as it's not pliable like last years.

They went up on packer after their discount code expired.

If they last until the next one and don't get excluded, I'm all over them.  That's the only colorway I like so far.  I'm hoping to see some Raptors, Bulls, or Blazers colorways or some college ones.
 
I am definitely not paying an extra $10 just for PE logo's. Especially for a logo that looks that bad at that.
