    Try some And-1's. I had a pair that were awesome. Played in them until a tear formed right where my pinky toe was.

    I hate Ralph Lauren Polo, but I'll wear Chaps. Don't worry about why that is because it doesn't matter. Regardless of how ridiculous I sound.

    I ordered the UA Anatomix Spawn off of EastBay on Monday. Just now, I get an email saying the order was cancelled because of lack of stock. WTF???

    Anyways, it was a cyber monday sale, and i no longer have that deal available, and i called them, and they only have the charcoal black colorway, which i don't want.

    Absolute BS.


    Anyways, I was looking for a similar price to the one i got from eastbay (paid about $90 including shipping) and found this on ebay.

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mens-Under-...81?pt=US_Men_s_Shoes&var=&hash=item4179939801



    How can I know if these shoes are legit? I dont want a knock-off pair of shoes. Please help, i want to order asap, but the price makes it sort of fishy, and just the way the image is shown. i dunno.

    Does anyone have recommendations on a particular store to get reasonably priced shoes? I've never bought basketball shoes and will need to try them on. I don't want to spend over $100.

    Nike tanger outlets. Maybe too far to drive. That's the only downside.

    They have a lot of cheap basketball shoes there.

    Finish Line has the James Harden low for $79. Great shoe, my daughter plays in them.

    You're not afraid she might turn an ankle? They're extremely low as hell.

    She also wears braces on her ankles (her high school requires them to wear braces). She used to wear Hyperdunks but fell in love with Harden's shoe. She really wanted his official colorway (red with that optic yellow/green) but settled for the red with gray trim (shown in previous poster's link)

    I wear lows (Kobes) and I find the shoe upper isn't all that prevents ankle turns but rather how wide the shoe is in the sole and how low your foot sits in the shoe.

    That all said... she is out 6-12 weeks with a broken bone in her foot... caused when another player came down on her foot.

    I always wait till the new year version of the HyperDunks come out and buy the older one since since are barely any changes.

    130 shoe for usually around 75 bucks after coupons etc. I use them for my indoor shoes and love them.

    What is a good basketball shoe to wear with a suit? I'm meeting some top level executives from the toy industry in the third week of January. Fashionistas and sneakerheads please advise.
