So far they look pretty goofy for casual wear.
But at least he's not wearing them with the laces super loose and w/ leather loggers. :x

Looks awkward with whatever pants being rolled up that high 
FWIW these are meant to be worn with basketball shorts. "Wear it how you want" blah blah but that is why the NSW Lifestyle version - whether you like them or not - isn't even cut that high.

IMO thats the worse way to wear em casually i would want the pants to cover all the way down to the swoosh
All star team is one of the accolades no one cares about, yea it looks good on a resume but no one is really hurt about not being selected
So with that said if fans vote Kobe in so be it, its well known he isnt statistically deserving this season, now if he were to make an all nba team it'd be a travesty

It is not really an award. All NBA team in award. The All-Star games is an exhibition for the fans.
The entire weekend is about catering to the fans, the contest, autograph sessions, the exhibitions, everything.
That's why they let fans vote for they want to see the most. Yes it is a populraity contest but it part of the experience.
Fans wanted to see Magic, Yao, MJ, etc., etc. Just deal with it brah

View media item 700337 I don't understand why these can't be rocked casually. They look fine here with shorts.

Your late to the party comment really doesn't have anything to do with my point of Kobe not deserving of a spot on the team so far.
Regardless of how you view the event, it's supposed to be the best player at the each position based on their stats so far this season.
Vince Carter beat Jordan out in votes one season and was named the starter over him. MJs career status did not play a part in the situation, only what he had done in that season alone, which was not greater than what VC had done that season.
But again, for those that want a shoe commemorating Kobe's season so far, I'm sure you'll get one. Lol

Rock as you wish, no need for other's opinions. At the very least, ask yourself if you might appear on the Fools Wildin Thinking thread.

Plan on copping to rock casually. No real difference from Cam Newton's UA Trainers from last year (which I also wear casually), in terms of height IMO.

They look absolutely HORRENDOUS from the Ankle up, right here.
Yall Cats gotta quit w/ the Hipster Doofus Look, bruh. LOL
They could look pretty solid if you let the pants cover the top portion... but it's just ridiculous for casual wear, otherwise.
Everybody's always Mad Quick to mention when a Competing Brand Bites off of Nike, but when it's relatively clear that Swoosh is biting (UA)..... *CRICKETS*
Brand Loyalty at its finest, I guess.

Maybe it's a age or where I'm from type of thing. It's hard to believe there are some who can't find anyway to wear these casually. Expand your wardrobe people geez. Really not anyway at all?

These are futuristic looking flyknit basketball boots.
I'd love to be able to try them on first. Might try to cop from NDC for a wear test and return lol
