are people stepping on your shoes when your on the bench?

maybe the weakest point of the 6s is the wrinkly midsole.
i know about the "shoes are meant to be worn so stfumf".
but after a few walks and light pick up games on my del sols,
they crease too much.maybe the paint on the midsole or something.
this is A VERY MINOR COMPLAINT though. of course
you'd like your shoes to look good. that's why we buy these nice
shoes in the first place,otherwise we'd all be buying 20 pairs of adidas pro models.
on the contrary, what nike did with the upper is revolutionary, no creases, looks
to be durable and very very lightweight. but that midsole is a bit of a pain to look at.
 
Congrats to Kobe surpassing Dominique Wilkins for 10th all time on the scoring list and finally we get a win after that rough skid!
 
Wifey bought me a pair of carpe diem 6s for Xmas and they are indeed

If you were referring to me, no i'm not a big dude by any means. I'm a little under 145 pounds. However, those nba courts, for some reason, seem to put a lot of stress on sneakers. It's probably due to the surface and traction. Also, keep in mind that I played over 10 games in these, and was doing a lot of running and cutting.
 
The more pics I see of the Concords the less I am liking them. Gonna have to see them in person to decide.
 
Colorway favorite is a matter of preference. We all have our own preference. So please dont hate if some people here are hyping up their favorite colorway. its normal i guess. Just a thougt. =)
 
It's funny, I read something in a magazine (think it was Fast Company) at least a year ago where they were talking about Nike and they hit on the Kobe line for a second. They said they were trying to focus on the "mamba" aspects and mentioned a shoe that would switch color depending on angle. Wonder if the Rice's do that, or if they have a crazy playoff colorway in mind?

Thanks. I don't buy Kobes to wear casually. I feel like the only way I get my money's worth out of them is by playing in them. Also, it would be a shame to not put this sneaker to use on the court. The VI is just an amazing sneaker to ball in.
