What is your favourite bball shoe your rockin it in this season?

I just splashed out on the new cp3 v11. very good fit, locks it down and feels great.

was really really keen on the lunarlon on the hyperdunks but the way it felt around the ankle and the heel just didnt feel right after trying on the cp3's. the damn store didnt have kobe 8s in my size either. i read amazing things about those and now thinking about having a pair shipped over, are they as good as people say they are? not sure how im going to live down having more basketball shoes then my girlfriend has everyday shoes if i keep going lol. any recommended online places to buy from? they all seem to want $40 for postage lol.
 
Got a pair of Lebron Zoom Soldier 6s and find them very comfy, was 3/3 from 3 point range in my first game wearing them and have worn a few times now. as I mentioned in the jersey thread I got them from this site: http://www.mkstylish.com/ have had no problems with them and either has my friend(he has a pair of Lebron 11s) I also bought some Air Jordans off there a while ago for casual wear and they are still in perfect condition.

Old pair of shoes I wore were the Derrick Rose Adizero 2s, good pair of shoes but they seemed to have squeaked a lot which was annoying.
 
Does anyone know if there are any coupon promos for Australians?
 
I am looking at the Lebron 11's at the moment. Very tempted.

PS. That mkstylish site looks fake as hell. $65 Lebron XI's. Usually $200 US

I buy off of Eastbay. Seems pretty good theres always a 15% off coupon code and sometimes a $20 code

Really want some new kicks but 3 pairs is probably enough for me at the moment, I have some Kobe 8's, Reebok Kamikaze 2's and some Under Armour Torches

If I could buy any atm I would probably buy these:

This is possibly my all time favourite pair:

those are the new cp3 v11. i just bought them in the black and red. they are awesome , like a cushioned vice for your foot.

red one those lebron 11's look great.

have to say im still hanging out to try lunarlon. felt great in the hyperdunks , im really eying off some kobe 8's.

do you live in adelaide red one? how much do eastbay charge for shipping? i think they told me the % and i worked it out to about $41 for a pair of kobe 8's. since that $41 basically brings them up to the price they charge at footlocker i might as well go there..............

.........if the bastards had any in my size and more than 2 colorways to choose from
 
Yeah around that. Save 35ish over footlocker. Good if u wanna buy something else or share an order though. The coupons help a heap. Shame the lebrons are excluded from discounts.

The red ones on eastbay had all sized for about 3 days then a few popular ones dropped off. I was so close to buying them, then I went to put them in my cart and my size was gone. Probably for the best. I do like the gamma blue ones though.

Yeah I mentioned in the jersey thread they are fake.. Couldn't tell the difference though and my Lebrons are fine when playing in them.
 
I've got a set of the Kobe 8 System Elites -

Wasn't a big fan of the green colour and wasn't planning on trying them out but when the guy in footlocker told me they were the best basketball shoe he's tried/owned I gave them a crack and they felt amazing. Also like the ankle cut shoes more then the ones that go over your ankles which was a bonus.
 
yeah the cp3 v11 have amazing traction! stop on a dime.

red one when i looked at eastbay they want $140 for the shoes and $40 for postage. thats $180 all up. how much do the kobes retail for in footlocker? cant be that much more than that? i would just pay the small amount extra to have them straight away except footlocker only have 2 colors and none in my size. the guy also said they only get their assigned stock then that's it for the season.
 
I paid $240 for mine which is pretty damn expensive, didn't know the price until I tried them out and was sold on them.

Might be able to put a coupon on top of that. Like I said before if your ordering more stuff with it it works out a lot cheaper. If i order off of Eastbay on Monday I will probably get them either Thursday or Friday. Pretty good effort. I got my Kobe 7's for $130 plus 40 postage and they retailed for $220, that was about 12 months ago nearly.
 
Bump.

Kyrie's first signature shoe is out through Nike:

Not bad. Might even buy a pair of the black ones for casual wear. Still, I wish Nike and adidas would still bring out black/white and white/black colourways with their shoes, along with the team colours and the fluoros. Mainly annoys me with running shoes, but I notice it's a common thing with basketball shoes now too. Sometimes you just want a good shoe that's a bit understated, instead of some lairy colours, you know?
 
Sweet looking shoe. I've been playing in cp3's after swapping from Kobe's. Really are an amazing shoe for light weight and traction, don't think I've slipped at all quickly changing direction like I have in others.
 
They look alright although I don't really like the look of the back part of the Irving shoe.

Also Damo, check out the Nike+ on the US site, allows you to customize the colour scheme of some of the shoes (haven't checked to see if the Irving one is possible, know you can with the latest Kobe ones). The issue at the moment is that they don't ship to Aus, was sort of looking at using a 3rd party site to make that happen, would probably cost a bit to get them from US to Aus but if you can get a design you dig a lot more then these orange/green/red shoes going around, probably worth it.

I remember looking at that site over 10 years ago, and then being bummed that they couldn't ship to Australia. You could only really customise one model (might have been the Kobes, if he was with Nike then) back then, too.

I checked today, you can customise the Irving shoes, fair bit you can do with the customisation as well.
