I dont know if its the way I play or what, but whenever I play in Jordans, I end up "messing" them up. Scuffing them, cracking midsoles etc. I know some people rock them and they still look good after many days of playing. Anyway..........if you were gonna take a pair in great condition and just say eff it, and hoop in them, what would you choose and why? Knowing theyre basically gonna get messed up.

I'd take anything that wasnt that expensive for me, or something that I dont care about that much. I balled in LS 14s (the last jordan I bought, and I loved those shoes, I still have em in the box, havent rocked in a year or so)....I did care about my LS's, I checked for creasing and fixed the tongue every timeout we took. I cleaned the bottoms everytime I wore em too, just making em look fresh as possible..So I would bet that anyone would ball in something they dont care about, but I'm wondering if there are some heads who dont care and will ball in any shoe?

Great thread idea I must say. We'll get some interesting responses.

Retro's are for casual wear...it's a 20 + year old old design after all. You will never beat the comfort and durability of the newer J's for ball, so I don't even bother trying anymore.
