are u being sarcastic?  serious question.  if you are serious, its cool, i just never came across someone who would honestly say starbury kicks are the best, especially "ever".

Nah, Im just messing around I have never tried them, however I do think that its pretty admirable that he tried to market them as more affordable shoes.  Granted if a guy like KG did the same thing it would alot better received, but ya, I was kidding about them being the best.

I'm sure if you just started posting about shoes you'd get some good responses.  Throw out a new topics/fanposts, etc.

I have always thought the idea of "reviewing" footwear, or fashion in general was always a very strange thing, because it really is such a subjective thing.  Other than the actual quality of the materials and handiwork, I just find it kind of strange for anyone to review styles like that.  You either like it or you don't, and everyone's opinion is different.

I suppose this is a problem with reviews of anything, but for some reason, it always came across as much stranger to me when people review clothes than other works of art (where it is easier to seethe skill of the artist, even if you don't like their style).

edit: sorry for the tangent, this just has always been something that confused me.

A couple other sneakerheads in here...nice. I guess I should've expected it on a basketball forum.


Pretty excited for these to come out in Nov...if I don't get shot in the parking lot.

I'm sure there are a few good blogs on shoes, but I don't know of any - that would be a great way to get hooked up all the time

i know i am in the very low minority when i say this, but im not a big space jam fan.  i am on the fridge of copping them this winter.  $175 for the cdp mold isnt worth it in my opinion.  i am a HUGE fan of the concords though.  those and the blk/cement 3's are my favs of any shoe.  if i can score a pair for below reatil, which will be [dang] near impossible bc the hype of these is already ridiculous

2010 will be a great year with a series of 6's dropping.  im more excited about that than the space jams releasing.  there is also a rumor floating around that the cement 4's may drop in 2010 as well.

Thought these were a cool idea, the Air McFly, based on Marty's from "Back to the Future 2."
