Pretty damn boring, especially that white/blue/orange pair.

Maybe they'd look better in some more interesting colorways.

Sneakernews picked up on a fall 2011 trainer 1.3 MAX (360 outsole):
http://sneakernews.com/20...ainer-1-3-max-fall-2011/
Just a drawing right now, some elements that stick out:
-The whole shoe looks more sleek and pointy. Most drawings tend to do that and they go for a more boxy look when the final product is seen
-Air Max 93 like sock liner?
-Behind the swoosh, there is actually something going on behind it
-Toebox seems to have some layers that work with the forefoot layering
-Cut of the shoe looks like it's more of a low now. Basically like any other RUNNING shoe out there.
-Are these running shoes or training shoes? Without a forefoot strap and the height of the shoe, that's okay. But now, no outrigger for lateral support? Why should I cross train in these vs. asics running shoes? I really cannot tell the difference right now


Overall, these are 10 times better than the normal TR1.3. But still probably a pass. I like some of the other running 360 outsoled shoes much better than these. Can any designers provide me with cues as to why or how I wouldn't get hurt playing basketball in these?
