The Lebron's

The Kobe's

They're a spin-off of the Hurrache 2k4, and 2k5 which was supposed to be his shoes. I read on Espn Kobe's going to have his own logo for these, but you can't see it on the pic.

The VC's

All of them are ugly with the exception of the all black Lebron's. I think those will look good. I'm nothing but a Jordan fan and I'm just going to start collecting Jordans from the 80's and 90's were his shoes were just perfect.

LeBron's shoes seem to all have a characteristic for being bulky.

The Jordans XX are the only new shoes that I would actually pay 100-150$ to get them.

They wanted LeBron's shoe to look strong with some hints of military boot toughness. Overall, it was supposed to convey toughness & strength instead of sleekness. I think they got halfway there, it's kinda goofy.

Kobe's shoe is alright, considering he designed it himself.

VC...wtf...his older shoes were so much better.

Ahh, saw them on Crooked Tongues...
Im wondering why they made that colourway for Kobe...
White/Red? Shoulda been yellow like always...lol

And how come nowadays all shoes dont have the arch in the middle of the bottoms sole anymore? I remember most bball shoes before have a little plastic thing in the middle that you can actually use it as a skateshoe! :lol:

Amen. The past several years, shoes have been sucking bad. I don't know who Nike hired to do these designs, but they better not be making much.

Keep in mind that the newer shoes have much much more technology than 10 years ago,which is definitely a plus,no matter how the shoe looks like.
