^They look good. I probably would have bought these if the Kamikaze Is did not release. I am hoping Reebok releases the Triple Deuce again or the original Blast model.

Same for me, all retro Reebok models fit the same, at least on my feet, always a half a size smaller than every Nike/JB.
Check that ebay link above, I copped from those guys and the price is way under retail.Thanks bro - I doubt these 'Big Dogs' make it to Toronto so if you spot 'em for a wicked price let me know and I may have to hit you up for a favour!
There you go.
Just copped mine from this guys on ebay:

Very nice price I must say $88.
It all depends on the perception fam, for my I find it hard to rock anything that is not a retro or OG from the 90's, all the "new" stuff is just trash for me. Bottom line wear what you like, not what everyone else likes.
Oh don't get me wrong I love retro kicks, it's just a lot of shoes from this specific mid-90s period can be awkward in my opinion. Bulky, striking designs.. They work in certain situations, but just aren't an everyday thing to me.
Dog, just my opinion, I never said there was anything wrong with anyone else wearing them on a regular basis casually. And nah, when they first dropped, they were basketball sneakers.They were 'everyday' sneakers when they first dropped - there were no LS or other marketing type casual joints. Surely you've noticed that the silhouettes are mainly black or white based and the contrast forced both Nike/JB & Adibok to push the envelop as far as designs go. In the past 3-4 years you're getting essentially low detailed shoes that use loud colours and extreme marketing (hype, nicknames, somewhat limited availability) to move units.
I'm no fan of the Ewing joints as they came from an time frame when ball shoes were the equivalent of ski boots or casts! I didn't like them then and I'm not a fan at present as they are as you said, the upper echelon of bulkiness. The mid to late 90s sneakers have held up quite well on the other hand.
Got my pair today, the quality is on point, that textured nubuk is Money! Just like I remember it from back in the old days.
