I'm in the same boat.. I'll definitely have to check theseThose are really growing on me but I have so many black or dark colored shoes already
Not sure. Could be an attempt to hype? Adidas store here told me limited to a few hundred pair when asked about the limited alt away release coming up (he thought we were confusing the alt away for the Fires). I've seen them sitting just as much as the GRs, but I'm also not sitting in a store all day.
Hay anyone balled in theres yet?
I'm going to be real 100 with you guys here....And I'm going to be as objective as I possibly can. I've worn Nike's 99% of the time, but felt like I'd give these a whirl given my utter respect for D-Rose as a player (Adidas marketing with the videos was genius too). i bought the the Crazy light 2's upon release...played in them once and immediately returned them as they cut my foot and put so much pressure of my foot, that I could barely walk. Therefore you can understand my hesitation to try another Adidas product. But I said, you know what, let me go for it anyway.
So I lace the Roses on and start shooting around to warm up and it feels like the insole is sliding....I'm thinking to myself, maybe its because I usually wear two socks or maybe the insole wasn't locked in properly to begin with. I take the insole out, readjust them, and I think I'm good. Game starts and midway through (mind you I can tell the insole is sliding all over the place) I look down and the insoles are sticking out of the sides of my shoes....no lie. The bottom of the insole is sticking out laying on the inside of my ankle. Stop the game and take the insoles out completely. I'm like what in the world???
This has never ever happened in my YEARS of playing ball. That being said I will NOT return these as I like the design of the shoe and am impressed with the lock down but I'm completely disappointed that this happened. I'm going to buy some insoles from champs or footlocker I guess. Anyone else have this happen?? Strangest thing to ever happen to me with a brand new pair of kicks. This should never happen straight out the box. I'm not going to sit here and say Adidas is trash or garbage etc. but I'm still kinda shocked like did this really happen? I feel like Adidas is trying to make some noise in the basketball world, but this leaves a poor impression on me.

Impressed with the lockdown but the insole is sliding? Seems like a contradiction. If the insole is sliding that much there is no way your foot was locked in. I have worn mine repeatedly since October 2 and have not had any issues at all (I may not cut as hard as you do though). It definitely could be a faulty pair or the sizing may need to go down .5. But really, if my insole was trying to escape? Looking like Alien busting out of the shoe? I would be wondering too.Hay anyone balled in theres yet?

when is the return?
^ Maybe I shoulda said ankle lockdown or stability. I thought that was implied in my statement. All of my sneakers are the same size so I dont know if sizing down would make a difference. Plus I dont want my toes jammed up. I cut very hard and play very fast. I've just never had this issue before.
I played again in them tonight. Wore two socks. Left shoe was fine...no problems at all. Right side, insole slid out again. Makes no sense. Im going to try and get a pair of aftermarket insoles....talk about disappointed. I think Im about done with this brand which sucks because I like the sneaker. My knee is hurting too. Dont know if its related, so I wont blame Adidas at this time in efforts to be completely fair.

January!!
Agreeeeeed. We honestly don't have much of a chance to make it to the finals, let alone a deep playoff run this year, what's the point??If you guys are talking about D Rose's return to NBA game action, I hope not. Too much of his career still in front of him to rush him back that quick. Nothing earlier than March for me and even then I would still be worried.
