LOCKED - adidas BASKETBALL 2011-2012 - Welcome Ricky Rubio

[quote="cube23"]irockjays - I don't think any of those were released on Tatooine! hahaha, seriously though, your best best right now for the 1.0s would be the outlets and the 1.5s probably eBay - they sold out pretty much everywhere they were released. Bryan/Chris - I like the look of the Supreme most, Chris maybe I will go in on an order if you're gettin em from the US! :D [/quote] Haha I'm actually in the Dallas/DFW area but I'm just a Star Wars nerd. Ah, eBay! I may have to resort to reseller prices for the 1.5 then. I guess retail isn't too bad for them if indeed they did sell out as you said. Need to drive out to the outlets after next week. We have tax free wknd next wknd and I want to avoid that in all aspects of the outlets. :( Thanks!

irockjays - Duke and Ninja might be able to fill you in on the outlets you need to hit up around your area?? ... otherwise yup, eBay has some gems that pop up every so often, what size are you? Bryan - if you're headed to the UA outlet let us know what you find! I went to the one at Seattle Premium and it sucked a$$ ... A pair of Supremes might be the ones for me unless I can find a pair of Adipure Lows or similar in my size ... I'm pretty sure I'll be passing on the CLs and 2.0s - still interested to see what Adi does beyond the first half of the (non-existent) season.

NO "ADIDAS BACK" YET?????

[quote="We Are Ninja"][quote="duke4005"]...On the sneakerhead thing, I don't know where I fall. I always consider myself a sneakerhead, mnostly because I am fairly knowledgable from years of playing and watching technology and knowing what I like and what the pros and colleges wear. WAY different defitnion than what most think of, but to me, someone like Bobbito or Lang Whitaker or Scoop Jackson are sneakerheads, while all the skinny jean, fat tongue, Supra-wearing pretty boys fall into HYPEBEAST. I don;t know, just my thought...[/quote] IMHO, that "transcends" being a sneakerhead. That term has a connotation that I don't particularly care for. IMO, you're an "enthusiast". You simply like shoes. You don't drool over a particular brand because it's a particular brand. There's no prestige involved, you aren't trying to impress anyone, not even fellow enthusiasts. THAT's cool. That's awesome. [/quote] AMEN to that!

[quote="Nene33"]Basically it's the same foundation(Pro Model 0/Ghost/Stupidly Light), personalized for Josh Smith, and Eric Gordon. Kind of a semi-sig. I like the idea, otherwise, they'd just get their own colorway of the same shoe.[/quote] that's very true. kinda like what nike does these days to new stars like blake griffin and rajon rondo. semi-sig > PE.

irockjays, if you are interested, I know some spots in both places that have some pretty good discounts and clearances. Let me know.

bryan- your whole thing about CLs being a must have is making me feel guilty that i dont have one yet lol

I'm taking a stand - Bryan isn't going to convince me to buy a pair of CLs!!! hahahahahaha :P

.....for now cube lol.
