[lobotomybeats]

those are atrocious.

 

[primetime]

Black ones are better, but still ugly.

 

[arff23]

I didn't know they were trying out a new cushioning system....Atleast they are doing that...

 

[storm ryder]

Good find GilsonKY!

Thanks.

Still skeptical about that "Suspend" technology. is this going to be like Saucony Grid? or more like And1 Springz Geometry or Avia's Cantilever?Maybe a mixture of a few of those, but all I know is, regular EVA foam isnt getting it done in the forefoot.

Gilson, you should share those pics of the Wade Slash from your blog with NT...now that's a respectable-looking shoe.

 

[deezyvsop]

Now those pics are actually worth looking at.

It looks pretty good to me, especially the outsole and profile shots. That outsole looks a lot like the first Wade, my personal favorite and a very underratedperformance shoe.

And 14 oz, wow. That's Hyperdunk status isn't it?

Not Bad lookin...

 

[rko2004]

The real pics make them look alot better. Possible cop.

These actually look good to me. I don't see how everyone is beating these. They are lightweight (always have been), they are trying a new cushioning system(which we all asked for), the colors block well. The only thing I don't like is the logo, I wish it would have been the star/chevron, but I can overlookthat. Otherwise, these will probably perform great, just like the other shoes in his line. Also, I tried on the Wade Clutch this weeekend. Good qualityleather, very light shoe, same cushion as Wade 1-3. Had a metal mesh material on the tongue. Shoe fit very well, probably best fit of the ones I tried on (BlueChip, Reebok Heel Hexride, adidas Forum Bounce, adidas Pro Model 0.

^ I wouldn't want to get out of bed either if that was my shoe for the new season.

 

[kash55]

Cool commerical.

 

[ntngman]

The design of the shoe is pretty clean, but Converse can they get the damn colorway correct. That shhhhh is whack.

 

[sauces11]

def pass

 

[Deleted member 38307]

They look a lot better in person, trust me.

 

[cjb23]

who the hell sets there alarm for 6:48am
i could see 6:45am or even 6:50am

but 6:48am?

 

[ericthewindow]

Yessir, I like them.

 

[trethousandgt]

saw these in person gotta say they are one of the best looking converse shoes ive seen in a long while.

 

[brendanmaguire]

bad

 

[storm ryder]

Now with the release of the shoe and some new pics, along with some marketing for this shoe, it seems like the shoe has grown on some. I saw them in person andwas impressed by the lightweight of the shoe. But my question is why hasn't Dwyane himself worn them yet?

So far this season through 4 games its been:
@NYK - Wade 1.3 (blk/red)
SAC - Wade 1.3 (blk/red)
@CHA - Wade 1.3 (blk/red)
PHI - Wade 1 (blk/red-white)


I'm loving those Wade 1's though. I'd love to get my hands on a few more pairs of those especially that first colorway.

 

[swingshot]

Shoe looks okay, but "Suspend technology" doesn't sound like anything special.

Seems like Wade himself may not like them too much. I can see him leaving the Nike stable full stop.... Just hope he signs with a decent brand, and notsomething like Peak or LiNing.

Wade 1 and 1.3's

. Definitely my two favorite shoes from his line. Iwish they'd retro them because I'd love to have a couple more pairs of each.
