    Re: The worst pick up players.

    Surprisingly, the KD 12s aren’t a bad shoe to hoop in as well. Definitely much improved from the 10s and 11s.

    Brons are still heavy as **** to play ball in, lol.

      Don't own a pair. I've heard a lot of good things about the KD12's.

      LeBrons are definitely heavy but I feel so damn protected in them, lol

      I decided to be adventurous this morning and hoop in my Harden 4's...they're on the opposite end of the spectrum. Super light.

        I picked up a pair of KD12s in December and they are fantastic, at least for my body type. Unfortunately, I had my umpteenth back issue in late Feb to the point where I now consider myself retired. Maybe I'll get some more mileage out of them in 3v3. I highly recommend the sneakers though.

              Man. I honestly didn't even know Eastbay was still a thing. You said Eastbay and my head went straight to the old school magazine [emoji1787]

                I miss getting those in the mail, quite honestly. Way more fun to leaf through than a website.

                  Funny timing, last week I got my first catalog in the mail from them in years, with Hollywood Brown on the cover. It was so thin. I threw it straight into the recycling bin without opening it.

                    Re: The worst pick up players.

                    I got the PGs in the mail. You were right about sizing X. Gotta go a size up. I ignored that piece of advice lol

                    I've just always wore 13 in everything. And 14s are always too big. So I just grabbed the 13 figuring that trend would continue. Nope. Couldn't even zip the damn things up. Lol. And to be honest, I didn't even know they started making half sizes after 13. That wasn't a thing before. My lady pointed out they have 13.5 to my surprise. You can tell how often I buy shoes these days [emoji23]

                    They didn't have the 13.5 available (go figure). So I just went to Eastbay (website lol) and got the KD12s per Ehh recommendation [emoji41]

                    My favorite shoe I've ever owned were the KD3s. All black with orange/blue accent. So clean...It was the first time I bought shoes just to play recreational ball. Usually I'd just wait until a pair of new kicks got "old"

                      Man if your 13+ you should take a look at retail chains to build your collection.

                      Burlington, Marshall's etc.

                      Especially Ross.

                      They get so many dope bball shoes wholesale in that size and up.

                      I saw some size 13 PG1's, Harden 3s, Bron Soldiers for like $30.

                      Like damn, wish I could fit them, lol

                        Man trust me. I do my random check-ins. Lol. I think I have to find better locations because all the sneakers I've seen at these places in my size are janky. Straight from the AC Green Dad Collection [emoji23]

                        The last ones I copped were the TMac 2 re-release (surprise surprise). Joints were terrible. Not like the originals at all. It was like they were made of recycled grocery bags.

                        Best pair I was able to get were the Rose 2.5. Nothing else has been noteworthy in my area.

                        EDIT: Now that I think about it, those Roses werent even a size 13. They were 12.5. But for the 40 bucks I figured I could make them work lol

                          Damn man [emoji38]

                          Found some random red Penny 2's at Marshalls last year. Can't find those anywhere retail now.

                          Since then I'm always on the look out.

                          Let us know how those 12's work out!
