Just got my pickups from the outlet40 deal. The Royal Simples and Kami 1 PE's. The Simples are Roshe-esque with ultralite soles. They also come in a brown classics box with a Royal Reebok branding. Comfortable and go a size down for the fit. The toe box is wide

Man....what you can probably start doing is buy these retro+ colorways at a discount and have them customized. I'll buy these at a discount and have the upper painted white with one side on each painted purple.
I thought it was another guard. I know Glen was in that Planet Reebok one with Cassell and Nick. I'll keep looking for it.
Update: you were right @trentbg. There was mugsy bogues in it also. The commercial featured the players moms talking about their sons moves...
Hey @trentbg, I'm sure you know. That commercial in the mid 90's with Sam Cassell, Kenny Anderson, and another player. They were laughing and talking about basketball moves in this coffee shop. I'm not sure on who was the third guy. They were all point guards though. The ad was for the Swingman...
Thinking back about the Swingman.
I can't find the commercial with Cassell, kenny Anderson, and I think terrel Brandon. They were talking in a coffee shop about their basketball moves. Was a nice one
Damn....my size is gone in the royal simple and pro heritage 1. Was looking to get them on discount. Oh well....I'll get them somewhere else. Thanks @AboveDaHype for putting up that discount code. I copped the IT Kamikaze PE
On another note. I was checking out Reebok.com, which I do from time to time, and I noticed that the Omni Zone pump has went up in price. I don't know if it's just the Team purple c'way or the model period. It's $144 now. It's not like I buy those from the site...
It's quite a few people that do that. There's some big heads on YouTube who continue to buy all c'ways of the same shoe but I'm not saying no names. I find it ridiculous also, when they know they will never wear all of them. They have plenty of c'ways in J's and foams, along with other...
No surprise on those Rafters. It is one of the most generic shoes ever made. No tech at all. Just a lace/pull string at the back. They can do whatever they want with this kick. Put a holographic, reflective print on it and it's still a plain ole shoe.
My latest pickups. The Sir Jam 360, Omni Zone “Hornets”, and the Zigtech Big and Fast in a Sprite c'way. Will be rocking the Sir Jams or the Pumpkin Omni lites for Halloween. Haven't decided yet LOL.
That's why I think the deal should be taken up to bought by that foreign group. You have a private group running the company, they will be more focus on making a profit from their investment. Adidas is a large but has never been the marquee shoe company. Adding a struggling Reebok to a already...
@trentbg I don't get why you're concerned about it, if you're just a retro guy? You're one of the harsher critics of Reebok. Don't want change with new ownership and new product. Just want retros, which you admit won't last forever anyway. The beloved models you like. Let's face it, they would...
128517128517 ahh C'mon. You would pass them up even for $20. Straight ******** bro. These shoes aren't that bad. The WORSE would be bare feet. Ask a third world country resident on how that feels. The shoes are disappointing, yes I agree but not less than $20.
I will give that shoe credit with using tumbled leather on the upper and it doesn't look bad on feet. ONLY if this shoe had REAL air transfering DMX, the basic design would be overlooked.
@trentbg I don't know. This seems like the change that may be needed,with all the complaints recently of Reebok not advetising enough and putting more retros out. The company needs smart business men who can focus on reviving the brand with more money spent on R&D and advertisement. Adidas is...
That's possible NK. I check Reebok.com frequently for anything new and occasionally... Shoes pop up with no ad. They still put out new B-ball shoes that are budget. Mostly all in the past few years have that generic look. These look a little more stylish.
What's puzzling still, is all the...
