Trim levels on shoes?

Trim levels on shoes?

...yeah, they already offer this with the miAdidas customizer options, so why not just throw in another upgrade option?

 

[Haakzilla]

Shit, totally forgot. I'll try to bug him about it on this trip

...try harder

Here's a story about them.

 

[BigGameDamian]

I think the bigger question should be does BOOST help in basketball. If it does matter, then I would argue he should have included it to make the shoes last longer.

I have run in BOOST shoes for quite some time (10+ pairs) and they certainly maintain their cushion much longer than the average foam does. They do cost more, but if you look at the extra mileage they give you then it breaks even.

I don't think the majority of the consumer's will look at it that way though.

Customization is not a trim level. It's just choosing colors.

Customization is not a trim level. It's just choosing colors.

...no, they also offer different material/textiles so it wouldn't be too difficult to add custom midsole options to go along with the rest of them. For those that don't care about the price difference and just want the best possible performance materials in the world I am sure it would pencil out for Adidas in the long-run. In a perfect world Adidas would also offer a WIDE version for their shoes as well

I guess this is as good a spot as any to post this randomness. I was cruising around the streets of Tokyo on googlemaps and came across this:

Adidas Bounce, which I believe is on Dame's shoes is good too. A little stiffer, Boost is pretty spongy. I have the Dame 2 that has BOOST technology, they are quite comfortable.



I think these shits were One Fiddy though.

Man, the dirt on your boost is hurting my eyes. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Sheeeeeeeeit

 

[3RA1N1AC]

Besides having ur athlethic shoes too clean is sus.

wearing dirty old expensive shoes is like the worst look ever. You know it's true.

Boost is a bitch to keep clean though.

Note the DAME Logo on the tongue on the black shoe.

Or can this be his first lifestyle shoes? Since Dame 3 just came out.

How much did they cost you? Inquiring minds want to know. FYI: Many years ago when I was an active home inspector, I did a job for a VP from FUBU. He said the soles are made in one of two factories and the uppers are under a design team with varying costs depending on royalty (ie: Jordans) . The shoes total cost average was $11.00 but that was 1994. It's probably in the $15-20 range now. Good luck with your fine collection.

These are COLD. I really think they're the best Dames yet.

 

[dviss1]

The soles are really nice:

 

[dviss1]

Only $115. They'll be 1/2 off soon at the Employee store.

 

[THE HCP]

Not feelin 'em. I think the 3s have been the best ones so far. These are starting to grow on me, we'll see.

The store is hit and miss. If they have them there they'll go quick.
