Official Adidas Derrick Rose Thread - D Rose 11

[redb13]

The heel part definitely feels like a damn pillow. But not so much to forefoot? although if i touch them from the outsides(visible part)they feel about the same plush..iness? If that makes sense lol. My idea was that maybe its normal, since there is more boost in the heel?
Whatever you reply to that^ i ll try and find SOMETHING with boost in the forefoot in a store. If it feels the same i guess l ll just stick with those?

How do you guys feel about the insole? Is it too thin, would you replace it?

 

[duke40]

Nope, only if you need to take up some extra dead space. Otherwise enjoy the Boost.

First of all words can't express my happiness for returning to NikeTalk since 2012 when I had my last post... A few old members may remember me like Duke40 above me.
I'm a huge sneaker tech maniac that digs into a shoe 100% from the tech to the construction.

To the topic now,

Since Adidas is modding Derrick's shoes I instantly did the same thing and the results are pretty dope when it comes to lockdown and the usual laces become undone problem.

Take a look at the extra holes Adidas did.

My solution was to pick up a screw driver and put two holes on the bottom and top of the plastic rectangle where the top strap comes through having that lace tube.

Nice mod, and good to see you back. If you didn't know, I'm on weartesters writing reviews now.

 

[war daddy]

Is it just me or do these feel more plush than the cl boost?

Oh yes buddy I've been reading your reviews since day one and you are doing a great job, I really enjoy reading them.

Cool mod! A lot like what Schwollo did on his

that mod looks pretty though imo I wouldn't go deeper in the ankle since it already has that inner eyelet cause that would probably restrict my front to back movements. Anyway it fitted him nice so that's great. You can try both mods and see which one you prefer. Mine is very quick and easy with a screwdriver and the good thing is that you don't have to fear about durability since the holes are done inside the plastic rectangle. I highly suggest anyone to try these mods cause they really improve the lockdown and the fit around the ankle.
Happy modding people!

not sure if it is just psychological thing or just not used to it. maybe you should try another one just to be sure that it's no defect. although what you say is some of the complaints I heard before with it's predecessor which is the Rose 5's. so I'm a bit unsure as to what people were saying then and you are saying now with the Rose 6. all I can say is the feeling between the Rose 5 and Rose 6 is different from what I know and my pairs are definitely more comfortable than the CL Boost 2015 and RG3s.

not just you.

also, try to run with the shoes. you won't really see much response if you are just trying them on.

My relationship with Adidas....
Want to buy a pair of the Black and Red color way but keep hearing crazy stories of how these fit.
Don't have a place to go and try these on I may have to pass but $80 for full length boost is a no Brainer

Does the black and red color way run true to size?

I wear a 10 in the majority of shoes (left foot is a true 10 - right foot is a 9.5). I went down a half size for ball & they feel great.

Anyone know when these will release in the US?

 

[war daddy]

Will be copping on disco ^^^^^^^^

 

[jontoad]

Best colorway i have seen. It looks so clean on court. Funny thing is you can't even make that one on Adidas customs because it wont let you make the x cage and the mid sole two different colors.

 

[si3n4]

Yeah the miadidas options are a bit lacking. Too bad because the shoe has potential...

 

[f9throughf12]

Gents, the knit upper (purple/teal colorway) feels fantastic compared to the synthetics. Very supple. Just glorious.  It feels a bit large though? Herm... I may need to size down .5.  When does the black knit come out?

you meant the black mesh? it's already out as far as Canadian territories are concerned. U.S., probably soon enough late this month.

 

[thapointguy]

Europe ADC has them. Thought they would release same time as the red mesh.
