Each line has been pretty repetitive from model to model, for the most part.
The last PGs were a little different because they had a zip-up shroud, be he must not have liked them much because I haven’t seen him wear them since before the bubble last season

I was done with Nike after they gave Kobe the same low tops for a decade

I don't mind a slow evolution in aesthetics, but the Kyrie and KDs have been overdoing it lately.

Are Nike Basketball Signature Shoes a large percentage of their revenue? Also - are kids buying them or do they think there trash as well? I wonder if our age plays into our sentiments, or at least our unwillingness to purchase.
Are other brands producing heat? I know the Steph’s line held down the front line workers in the hospitals during the first year of the pandemic

I don’t know the answer to all those questions, but I believe the sig lines do pretty well in the overseas markets, particularly Asia. So I don’t think what we like here in the US and A is the primary driver of Nike’s design and marketing strategies.

My guess is kids are buying them and following through the motions that we did, like the Jordan 20s and 21s, TMacs, AIs, and early Lebrons were amazing to us growing up.

Yeah that’s what I was thinking/trying to figure out. Thank you for confirming I’m not crazy
Can’t tell me the XX’s weren’t hard doe
After that, it was a wrap for me and JB Sigs (only got XXIs and XX2s through the Countdown Packs).

For the life of me I’ll never understand why PG has a Nike signature line.
I think last Nike signature shoe I liked was the lebron 16 and 17

Nike should cancel PG's and KD's sig lines. I think they should ax Bron's too, but that will probably no happen.
Kyrie's can stay for now, and Giannis' line just started so give it a few more models.
Nike Basketball seems like a damn mess though. They sent Luka and Zion to JB, their other athletes don't even wear their new stuff, and their signature models are lackluster year after year.
