I never knew Converse was interested in signing Penny Hardaway coming out of college until I stumbled on this. The irony is Nike ended up owning them 10 years later after they filed for bankruptcy.


One of my favorite shoes ever. That post got me hyped for a sec...was hoping I was reading the date wrong and it was actually an upcoming re-release.

I doubt Nike would rehash those because they don't even rehash the '80s Converse basketball shoes that were popular. There's some demand for those too. They just won't prioritize rehashing them despite potential profit for them.

If Nike were to re-release those Dwyane Wade shoes, they would be revised with the omission of any branding/logos/ties to Wade as a loophole that enables them to avoid paying him royalties, especially since he left the Nike umbrella years ago when he went to Li-Ning. They would be rehashed as generic shoes with a different name similar to how Nike did it with rehashes of shoes worn by Chris Webber & Deion Sanders several years after they left Nike.

I think Wade also has a lifetime deal with Li-Ning.

Out now
 
Nike is foolish for not doing retro releases of all the old Weapons colorways.

…demand will probably never be higher than it is now.

Extremely dumb.

I know they see what the NB 550 and 650’s are doing.But nooooooo Panda Panda Panda Panda.

We probably need some Designer to ask to use the model on a collab for them to give it thought.
 
Really regret not getting more All Star Pro BB as backups. My favorite shoe to play in.
 
any word on how flyknit/crater converse fit? when I axe sellers on Ebay they've told me to measure my foot, to determine my shoe size while another seller appeared to just hike the price after I requested this info (they didn't answer me) I am a full 1.5 sizes down from my brannock size in old school Chucks.
