Three years ago I made these and they turned out exactly how I wanted them. I miss these shoes :(

So I'm looking into possibly getting a nice pair of Nike's or Adidas basketball style kicks for summer. Any recommendations? I want a pair of low tops that will go with most things and will be under $100 or so. Currently leaning towards something like this: http://www.zappos.com/nike-action-ma...ame=zap_no_res

Do any of you have what you would consider, "HOLY GRAILS"?

I'll start: with my 1980's adidas MARATHON, made in Yugoslavia

Missing my latest pair, but this is my collection:

Even though those spizike's are beaters I still try to keep my beaters clean. :bonk: So I would have gone converse cause the rain won't mess them up compared to the J's.

Those seem fine. They're clean, not real flashy. price is pretty good.. so I don't know what I could recommend. Unless you're unsure of specific sneaker, possibly looking for something really different, or looking for better prices?

Mine will always be the Bred XI's, but overall shoes might still go to the V's or III's in my humble opinion.

I wore the Spiz'ikes, but once I stepped and my feet slipped side-to-side, I went with the shoes that has the star on the side.

I don't see any XI BReds, only beuwbz :iono:

These are the Nike Kobe 8 System Mambacurial inspired by Mercurial soccer cleats so I like'em.

Anybody get grapes?

All of the stores here didn't allow camping and only went with the 10 raffle tickets 2 days prior to the release. :bs:





See, I knew deep down inside, you like Kobe! :bellyroll:

I slept on them, but my brother got lucky with a 9.5 through eastbay.com, which is the sister company of foot locker.

I got the Grapes, I had to, since they were the first colorway of Jordans I ever got back in 1991! They were hand me downs from my aunt, that's why I got them a year late.

I was able to get mine through twitter RSVP at the Portland Nike Town, I'm happy that's fixed now! I wasn't thinking it was going to work but it did!

Those Kobes are awesome! I'm not a huge fan of the color, but the style is awesome. I really don't like Kobe, but I have a few of the VIs.
