man you guys like some crazy stuff. I prefer simplicity. I just bought these.

I'm with you. Give me simple white kicks, with one other color (preferably blue) with maybe black as an accent color.

The LeBron Zoom Generation 1 lows are pretty much my favorite shoe ever released. Trying to find a pair to replace the beat to all hell ones I still own for a decent price.

Re: OS Shoes Thread

Anyone know the best way to clean shoe soles, specifically digging rocks and dirt out of the deepest parts of the sole?

Reason I ask is because I bought the KD Vs but like an idiot got them probably a size too small and want to try and return them to get a bigger size. I've only worn them for 2 days (and not for a very long time during those two days) so it's not too, too bad. I just don't want to be sitting here for hours on end trying to clean them to perfection.

*Bart Scott voice* CANT WAIT!

Why'd they have to go nubuck/suede, though?

1. Use a tooth pick to remove all rocks and dirt from the treads.
2. Use a gentler detergent and water solution to clean the sole of the shoe.
3. Use a brush with soft bristles to clean the soles.

* make sure to clean any dirt on the side of the soles. Store managers will look there too.

Hope that helps.

Good question, however I love nubuck. It's easy to clean.

Just picked up the all-white foams on my way to work...logged on and found the Easter Lebron's online, ordered.

I love the all-whites! Clean looking shoes for the summer! I don't have any foams, so I'm envious.

Re: OS Shoes Thread

Picked up my first pair of Roshes. They are quite comfortable are going to be an amazing summer sneaker thanks to the flexibility in the toebox. They're the closest a sneaker can possibly be to being barefoot IMO.

I may check these out. Though Nike tends to always have neon and other colors, and if I want to wear stuff to work I like it a little more neutral. We're a casual office (shorts in the summer, etc), but I still like to avoid the crazy colors at work.

I got lucky. The Footlocker by my job isn't as busy as others.

However, I bought a 10.5...the guy in front of me got the last 11. I'm not sure a 10.5 fits me well, I may end up selling them.

The Lebrons will be here next week though. The Foams seem to be going for 350+ online...since I bought them in NY, with sales tax they ran me $245.

I picked these up, the Iguanas, they're a good c/w for what you're looking for...



Have these en-route from NDC but might return them and get the Sport Reds instead...

Re: OS Shoes Thread

Christmas came early today. Buddy of mine's gf copped him a pair of Jordan 11's last week not knowing he already had a pair so he let me buy them off of him. He also had a pair of these babies that he bought but never wore and didn't want anymore. I feel accomplished for some reason lol.

Re: OS Shoes Thread

How much did you pay for the Bred 11's? Just curious.
