IMO, adidas is doing better with basketball than Nike right now.

Adidas has one good sneaker and that's been out a year

Y'all can have those ugly *** Harden's, Don's and Dame's

 

[g-time]

Is it really adidas doing better than Nike when they have to create a thousand colorways because the can’t nail down the next shoe?

 

[rioibrs]

People can't say nike has better performance sneakers when they make crap like book 1s

 

[g-time]

Actually try the book 1s.

Have you actually played basketball in the Book 1?

I'm mainly talking about aesthetics.

 

[g-time]

But you said performance. Aesthetics that went exactly with what he was wanting. They had some pretty solid execution with most of the colorways.

performance sneakers are the type im talking about but when it comes to performance sneakers i'm mainly judge the visuals, like most do.

No, when most people use the word performance they're talking about how does it perform in it's designed field.

Appearance, performance, playability, visuals have different meanings.

Book 1s look trash

 

[g-time]

Just going to respectfully disagree

 

[headdetective]

I respect it.

They do absolutely nothing for me in the looks department.

It's the color ways. Plus the removal of the heel tab.

The Forrest Gump might be the best GR so far.

I love the Book 1's aesthetics and possibilities with colorblocking and colorways. Those and the AE1 are my favorite basketball signatures of the year. However, unlike the AE 1, its rollout with cws has been like:

They're finally putting out some good cws that I'd actually scoop up. So far, I have one.


On the contrary, since their launch, the AE 1 cws have been like:

So far, I have eight. That's certainly the most that I've EVER scooped up for any signature basketball shoe in its initial run/campaign.

 

[Teenunn]

Chrome AE, most likely my last high.

 

[rbk93]

Let's be honest, there's been some trash CWs of the AE1s too.

And my guy Harden has been putting fire out with the Vol. 7s, 8s, and 9s.

 

[rbk93]

Mainly Georgia Clays and Velocity Blues were the weakest of the mids I can remember.

 

[perfectchaosrei]

2 “bad” color ways out of like 16+ colorways is a good hit to miss ratio.

Hellll nah - clays are dope

 

[Kobekobe]

My only gripe with the colourways is that they insisted on using black sockliner/upper on a lot of the colourways.. it worked because it's hard to mess up but it's a bit lazy imo.
