Nike all the way. Jordan, LeBron, Kobe, VC... all the history counting, technology advantage, cooler designs, shox, air max, air force 1, zoom air shoes. Plus I hate the three stripes image on Adidas.

And this us the dumbest thread I have ever seen. I don't know why I'm posting in it. First, it has to do nothing with the NBA. Second, there already is a shoe thread. Third, this sounds like an ad.

anyways, i just can't accept child slavery so i choose addidas. besides, nike wears r too sporty to wear regularly. on the other hand, addidas training pants & jacket says it all... bet u have 1 too!!!
ironic... when i think of the company, i do hate em but i gotta admit i own lots of their products including my precious shox... (N) btw, addidas bounce look real hot!!! (Y) anyone got to wear em? tell me how it compares to the shox!!!

I like the look of most Adidas products (shoes, pants, price tag :P)better than Nike, but I've always been a Nike fan too.

I'm a huge Nike fan, the last 4 pairs of (casual) shoes I've bought have been Nike. Here's my current pair. (don't mind the Shaq shoes in the background - those are my cheap shoes to wear when I'm playin ball outdoors rather than inside :P)

I used to wear the classic Adidas shoes a few years back, but for now the only thing I like about Adidas is their "Impossible is nothing" slogan - I picked up a t-shirt with that printed on it because it's one of my favorite quotes.

AND1 all the way :headbang: .

But if I was held at gun point and was asked that question I'd take Nike.

Simply because Addidas will always be more of a soccer company then a basketball company to me .

Adidas always had a great qaulity for the shoes for a cheap price, atleast they had, when they were having some nice pair of shoes.....but nike has always been the stylish brand with the old schools and tennis shoes....i always try to go with adidas, but latly the new models are just horrible!

clothing.....i take nike over adidas!....cuz all the unpolite and gangsta wanna be russians are resembling those 3 stripes over here in Latvia!

Imagine meeting xbox360... I wonder what brain disease he has.

Anyway I love Adidas. Nike shoes look great but I never had a problem with Adidas and they were very comfortable. All the Nikes I've worn in games have been uncomfortable and fallen apart quite easily.

Has xbox360 ever managed to prove that he is an actual human? It still seems like every one of his posts has been made by some kind of bot

I feel ya Hinrich, I think he may be a bot as a matter of fact.

Referring to Shannon, his brain disease is probably that he has some bot chip implanted into his brain.

I buy what looks good. Sometimes Nike, and sometimes RBK. I don't really like adidas (had a pair of them and the shoes just came right apart in months).

I prefer Adidas over Nike except for basketball shoes. That retro look Adidas give to their products (especially their apparel) is just gorgeous.
Nike's products have that "for-the-future-product" look, that I don't really like.

I don't like the new shoes coming out from ANY company right now. I absolutely love the look of retro shoes. I recently got a pair of Retro Jordan 3's in white/red/black. Going to get a pair or Retro 5's if Footlocker has it in stock this weekend. Nike Air Forces of course will always be a classic, and I also like the Nike Air Force 25 Supreme (though I think they're ridiculously overpriced...no way those things justify a $175 price tag). And seriously, what's the difference between the Supreme and the Premium? What justifies the $25 difference? They look identical to me. As for Adidas, the Superstar is the only shoe of theirs that I still wear. Haven't liked any other Adidas shoe since the T-Mac 2's, and that was 5 years ago. Reebok products, IMO, are almost all crap. "The Question" is the only shoe of theirs that I have ever liked.

I don't see how anyone can be a fan of the new Jordans XX1 and XX2. There's nothing unique about them...nothing that screams "JORDAN!!" to me. Actually, the last pairs of Jordans I liked were the 17 and 18...those were absolutely stunning. Can't fuckin' find them anywhere for under $400 though, which sucks.

I love the fact that he starts a thread, but never replies to them or gives his opinion. The bot suspicion is growing...
