Oh nice!!! hey... how do you have two right feet????
hehe.. I had to reset the link to the adidas thread in my sig
Noice!
So that is why Jon never wants me to pick up shoes for him. He has two right feet!
Benny, the CL is definitely not for everybody, but since you are a Kobe fan (I assume from your pics in the photography thread) you will probably like the cushioning and court feel. The ankle is pretty restrictive/supportive for being so light, so it may not be your cup. The lows may be better, or even wait for the Rose 2.0. But personally, I like them. Alot. But not more than the 1.5.

wow nice work on this new thread nene!
great shot of the 1.5s as well WAN and great pickups squall!
I, on the other hand, lost my onyx/blue howard LTs at the gym during the long weekend. I thought I packed them already but must have forgotten them or misplaced them.

I have to say, I'm not a fan of how almost every shoe in the 11-12 lineup looks like a Crazy Light sibling. I understand the technology is cutting edge, and lightness is the new frontier for tech (and sales), but the similarities between the adiZero Ghost, Crazy Light, Rose 2.0, and Pro Model 0 make the whole line somewhat boring to me. That said, I'm really excited for the Rose Dominates, because they seem to keep the same general idea, but advance it, add new ideas, and take the aesthetic somewhere [b:6a5bcd1192]new[/b:6a5bcd1192].
I also like the new Howards, but after my experience with the Superbeasts (basically the sole is falling apart on me), I won't be picking up the 1s. The 2s seem to change the sole architecture, so they look promising.
My favorite shoe from the first slate of releases is what looks like a "Home" adiZero Rose 2.0...

I'll really wait to judge the Dominates/Howard 2s until we see some live shots as they get closer to release.
Also, when will the Volt/Electricity madness end? If I never see that color again, I'd be fine with it. First the Crazy Lights, now the Roses. Hopefully the Howards don't pick up that shade.
And to Nene, thanks for taking the initiative and moving us into the next calendar year! I'm excited to see if this is the season adidas can pull me into buying something other than Nike/JB for off-court wear.
Nice one Nene!! :)
Jon - are they the Vibram fingers?

Very nice pickup Squall! :up:
I'm actually thinking of getting one more pair of the St. Paddys!!! Love the pearl toe and green nubuck so much!
Nice little collection too... looks like your ball shoes are in attack formation!! :lol:
not really.. more of "sleeping position". all the Kobes haven't seen a hoop. Only the beater Soldier IV and the Fuse (a couple times) saw a hoop. Forgot to mention the beater of all beaters, Hyperdunk low OG Nash. :))
