I also own a pair of OG released Spizike's and Melo 1.5s when they first hit the shelves before I knew where the hybrid/Spizike line and .5 series were going. It pisses me off where JB is headed, as well as the industry as a whole, it's becoming a commercialized fad with new brands up and coming hoping to get a piece of the footwear pie while it lasts (Supra, Creative Rec, Gourmet, Greedy Genius etc etc.), which BTW is all garbage IMO.

To be fair though, Supra is an actual skate brand with real skate shoes with vulcanized soles and the sort not like the Dunk SB line. They do however have the NS line.

I have terrible chinese eyes lol

hahah no worries. The Playoff colourway has black laces, silver JUMPMAN tag on the side there, and the pulltab is all black.

These are French Blues, as I mentioned in the last post, the ones Nick posted are Obsidians. Very nice colorway none the less, my faves as well.

And I dunno, I still don't like Supra. Not a fan of super-high tops.

Found the gems!

Really?!
To each their own I guess, but I really rated these. They were superlight, but they felt like paper with absolutely no cushioning. LOL.

Yeah they're really sucked as a basketball shoe, now that I think of it. Very thin stuff, very little support. I wore them because I thought they were "cool". I was young and brash. I'd like to have a pair now because I like the look.

A lot of people would say I had ugly ball shoes, I guess i have a weird taste but I don't mind. I really regret wearing some of them now, I had these (jetflight) but wore them to shit. Blue and white though. Not a bad pair to play in, very light but comfortable with lots of padding, the bad though, I rolled my ankle pretty bad a few times, seemed like it lacked lateral support.

If i could do it all over again, I'd just buy some shaqs to play in and case the rest. LOL

Ah Kicksology! That was my favorite site of all time! The only time I've ever wanted And1.

[LongCity]

I don't know what And1 has to do with those but kicksology is still around!

Kicksology.com went defunct around 2004(?) and I remember because I read their article about their last hoorah.

Also, the reason why I mentioned And1 is because I find their shoes uncomfortable but Kicksology exposed me to And1's sick colorways such as the NYK Sprewell shoe. The color scheme was justifiable enough to get them.

Unfortunately, I was a junior high kid who was broke and couldn't afford these limited edition shoes (they had a collection where they had specific city colors!) Now I can't even find a picture for it.

I have a bias towards And1.

Albeit a guy called Nick does them now, not Prof. K. Was the Sprewell shoe the one with the air bag and the zipper?

Edit: And the sneaker reviews are not done in the same format either.

Cool discovery! Thanks!

[xDodge2x]

FTW: Nike SB Tiffany's

[LongCity]

OG AJ XI BRed

OG AJ XII Playoff

OG AJ XIII Playoff

Venoms - Just a really versatile pair

High Hairs - My first pair of SBs bought 4 years ago (not crazy into the whole SB craze like the self proclaimed "sneakerheads" out there hahah)

Don't think these got a name but I really like them. Real versatile pair.

HUF - not to be mistaken with the HUFquakes

Have a pair of these in Baby Blues, worn badly, wish I would've saved them, but I needed a ball shoe for high school. I wasn't a collector back then. Wish I could find a pair of these now in any colour!

The hyper flights are my favorite b ball shoe of all time. I've never had a shoe with such great ankle support/grip yet not restricting on movement with that flexing spine. They look great but they are even better in use so don't worry about wearing them out.

I have a beat up pair of white/blue and I just picked up a pair of all blacks from the Nike Store in San Fran this summer. I think you may be able to buy them off Nike online.
