I mentioned earlier in this thread that I ordered a pair of Jimmer's signature, "Lonely Master" shoe by 361 degrees. 361 is a Chinese company that makes high-end running shoes for the world market. Jimmer's FIL, who worked in the fitness shoe industry works for the company.
When this was first announced it got some really good press just on the pictures. The shoe wasn't supposed to be available in the States until spring 2018. Truth is I don't think they have plans to release it here. He does have a line of fitness shoes that are available in here.
Anyway, I thought the shoes looked cool so I figured out a way to order a pair. I got them yesterday and wore them to my burn workout at the gym that evening. They were immediately comfortable and fit like a pair of Nikes. They did well in my workout which included weights, treadmill, and some agility stuff. My early review is that they are a very good shoe. Time will tell if they last although they seem to be of much better quality than other Chinese shoes (Starbury) that have landed on our shores.Comment

I've been in need of some white kicks for a couple years. I actually held off on getting any last summer because I get so annoyed when the midsole is dirty, and keeping a white midsole clean is a PITA, IMO.

I've only worn them a couple times, but these shoes are fantastic.

I grabbed this NB limited release. I know NB are old man's shoes, but whateves. As a great man once said, "I sport New Balance sneakers to avoid a narrow path..."

They look like the shoes my mom wears when she walks the mall. I didn't know she was so up to date and stylish. I'll have to share this with her at dinner tomorrow.Originally posted by Donuthole View PostI've been in need of some white kicks for a couple years.

I have not really slowed down on the sneaks lately. I grabbed a pair of the Marvel series vans. I also saw these running shoes at the Nike store the other day and hopped on eBay to get em at a discount. Nobody but nobody I've showed them to has liked them from the picture. The top material is translucent and they look a lot better in person:

Please stand by. This is not a test. Donovan Mitchell is getting his own shoe. I repeat, this is not a test...
Unless I'm mistaken and D Will had a shoe or AK had some off-brand Russian shoe, this will be the first Jazz man to have a shoe since Karl Malone's L.A. Gear Catapult. (
)
*edit-- I have just made myself aware via the power of the internet that D Will did indeed have his own shoe-- the Nike Zoom Flip'n DW (yes, that is the real name). I have complete faith that Adidas will produce the best signature shoe for any Jazz player to date.

Donovan has been wearing a custom black and hot pink colorway of Dame's shoes all season- that's a pretty good looking shoe. Looking at Adidas' site they only have 3 players with signature shoes right now- Harden, Dame, and D Rose. Looking at their shoes there isn't really a hideous pair in the bunch. (I would say that while Nike's designs in general are more distinctive and iconic, they tend to put out a good amount of crazy bad stinkers, too e.g. check the LeBron line). What I like about adidas is that they seem to have a million different colorways and the option to customize a pair. Also, I love gym rat clothes/ loungewear and I'll rock any amount of Spida gear they put out b/c I'm pretty stoked to be this excited about the Jazz again."I'm anti, can't no government handle a commando / Your man don't want it, Trump's a bitch!
