Daddy needs a pair of new shoes!
#19336755 - 12/28/13 11:59 AM (10 years, 1 month ago) |

I haven't bought new basketball shoes in about 5 years now, and the soles are starting to come apart from playing all these years.
I have a $100 gift card to Foot Locker. I can always throw in a bit of extra cash on top, but my limit will be $150.
So I'm looking for suggestions from you guys as to what kind of shoes I should get. I could care less about brand or athlete name associated with it. I just want something durable, comfortable, and within my budget. My preference is simple color scheme high-tops. No crazy color designs or anything like that.
I'd really appreciate some input since I'm not caught up on the basketball shoe game anymore. Thank you.

If only those sandals came in shoe form. You know me too well sheekle. I feel we're getting a bit too chummy. Almost crossing the line of possibly...male bonding! AHHH!

I think you and I are the only people who play basketball on this board 
I just wear regular running shoes - my feet are really wide and I can't even find basketball shoes that fit.

I think in the Pub we are the only ones lol. There's a few of us that play in the NBA Thread in the Sports Forum here though. It feels like I'm going to have a hard time getting input about basketball shoes on the shroomery, but it's worth a shot.

Yea. The air maxes were always great when I was younger. Do you know about how much they run for nowadays? I'm posting from my phone, and it's taking forever to load webpages.
zappa- The chucks don't have enough comfort for me. I've had pairs in the past but I'm not a huge fan of them anymore.

The signature series shoes like the new LeBrons, Kobes, and Jordans are super over priced. It'd be minimum 200-250 bucks for something I'd be scared of getting smudged. Thanks for looking tho.

lol.
I came home first to look up some more online. I found an awesome pair of Jordan Flight Club 90's in Gray on sale for 90 bucks on footlocker.com. I've made up my mind.

Honestly I'm either in sandals or barefoot 95% of the time here since I live right by the beach in south florida, but I do need a nice pair of shoes to play basketball in every several years.

Just picked up those Jordans on sale. I'm so surprised at how cheap they were for how great they look and feel. I've never had J's before because they were always too expensive for me. I'm all excited to go ball tonight at the gym. 
Edit: I saw the new Kobes while at the store. Definetly not my style. I'm sure they are great shoes to play in but it looks like someone just splattered light green, yellow, and blue paint on them.
I know that all the shoes NBA players are wearing now have that kind of look, but I've always been a fan of just a two tone shoe that's functional.

Yeah the Kobe's aren't the best looking (by any stretch of the imagination) but they have great reviews for comfort and support. Since you said you will be wearing them on and off the court, those J's you got look perfect. Plus Jordans seem to be a natural lubricant for the ladies, so that's a plus

LoL. I like that. "Natural lubricant for the ladies."
It's mostly just for on the court, but I did need something that weren't either dress shoes or sandals to wear when I'm just hanging out or going somewhere casual.

Do you guys know of any companies that make basketball shoes in different widths? Most shoes seem to just be the standard D width and I am a 2E. Ds put my feet to sleep, I'm currently just wearing New Balance runners because they make them from B - 4E.

My setpdad always has the same problems buying shoes. New Balance used to be the only ones he had found until recently that come in widths large enough. Last time I saw him, he was raving about how his new shoes were finally perfect for really wide feet. I'll have to ask him what brand they are next time I see him. I know they were fairly pricey, but I'll let you know.
The Nikes and Jordans apparently only come in "small, med, large" width. I don't know if the large would be wide enough though. I have pretty wide feet, and I got the medium width (only ones they had in stock) and they are a bit tight as far as width, but just gotta break them in.

Hell yea PCP. Those J's look awesome. I've been looking online and I'm really surprised at how much shoe prices went down.
Last time I bought shoes, Forces were over 200. I'm looking right now and they have them for as little as $100. The most expensive ones I found at foot locker were $200 (air force downtown high top). 5 years ago they were close to $400.
I guess those Chinese sweatshops are at least giving us cheaper kicks over the years lol.

I can't really speak for Adidas performance other than the occasional 2-on-2, but I skateboard, and over the past ~4 years the quality of the soles has gotten so much better and grippier. Can't say much better than Nike, but they're both as grippy as can be. Weight isn't really an issue IMO, but they definitely aren't like wearing cinder-blocks as some are.

I don't really skate anymore. Just cruise down the beach on a longboard with sandals or barefoot, but I remember when nike started coming out with their "extreme sports" line of shoes. Idk what they were thinking. From what you said, I'm guessing they haven't improved much.
When I still used to skate (shortboard) I was a fan of DVS'. Looking back on it they were pretty crazy looking. Those really big, puffy tongues in bright blue. Before then, it used to be all about Globes, and then like 20 years ago the all infamous Airwalks lol. I just brought myself through memory lane with those shoes.

Nah you must have misunderstood, Nike SB (Skateboarding) and Adidas (doesn't have a specific "line") are some of the best quality shoes out 
"Tech" shoes back around 2000 are so funny to look at They've sorta started coming back now, albeit no where near as terrible looking as some of the '00 ones The runners toe is even back!

I was referring to the first line of Nikes that came out for skateboarders and surfers and were sold excursively at skate shops. I believe it was around 2001. I think I misunderstood what you wrote.
It's wild to see some of these hipster kids walking around nowadays wearing the slip on Vans or just low top Vans in general. IDK if they are trying to be ironic or what the deal is, but I used to love those shoes when I was real young.
