I like the fact that CJ designs his own with the online iD thing...

Nic the thrifty european. Dorrell the wasteful yank.

I love that Robin made Wes an Iron Man shoe. The Blazers shoe guy reminds me a bit of Matthew McConaughey. He says "shoestrings" instead of shoelaces - is that a regional thing?

Brant is from the Bay. I call them that as well

Does Dorell need new shoes even if he doesn't play?....

The amount of gear each player is given is absurd. I understand these are million dollar athletes, but come on. Different tights for practice, games, warmups, AND shootarounds?? That's excessive. They should ship off 75% of that stuff to third world countries that need clothes, not give 120 pairs of shoes to an athlete that makes $10 million a year. Just sayin..

These are big guys who play/train hard, a lot of their clothes and shoes get worn out very fast.

I have a feeling you didn't play sports growing up.

I did actually. And I didn't need 120 pairs of shoes.

Seriously, you can't excuse this excess. These guys don't need all this gear. It's a waste.

 

[Bob Dobalina]

I actually found myself surprised at the amount of gear as well. I'm not saying what they should be doing instead, but it was eye opening at the amount of gear. I was even foolish enough to think that these guys were responsible for their own shoes before seeing the video. Thanks for posting, it was quite interesting.

they are all either paid money to wear the shoes, or given free shoes to wear the shoes. its a pretty standard endorsement/ sponsorship agreement i would assume.

My sneakerhead son is going to love this video!

 

[Boise Blazer]

I just watched that and it was cool as hell to see. thanks for posting. Repped.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

I enjoyed that.

Some of these dudes are divas when it comes to fashion!

 

[illmatic99]

The amount of gear does seem excessive, but also realize that these guys burn through that shit very quickly. The dude even mentions how often Wes tears his shoes.

I can get at least a few months out of my bball kicks and I don't even play that much or that hard. When you play a few hours each day at full tilt, it's easy to see how often they need replacements.
