Adidas Super Beast - St Patrick's Day - DH


As usual trending, many shoes from the 3-stripes have always needed either from a very strong push of an endorsement to a star, or a well known popularity of their historical models such as the Adidas original off court designs. There is no difference in the Howard signature series. Based on my observation it is much easier for Nike to come up with bunch of weirdo looking, low-medium performance balling kicks but still sells decently well, where it is completely opposite on the stripes side. But this doesn't decrease my love of Adidas. They're honestly missing some sick undeniable kicks on court, but this Super Beast has definitely taken my heart away.

adiZero Rose 2.5 - All Star


To finish off my 2.5 series, featuring the anodized finish, the Rose 2.5 All-Star is suited up in bright reddish orange known as High Energy. Grey heather lines interior with white stripes wrapped around the heel. Slight hit of metallic gold on the vamp branding, and of course the massive ROSE logo on the tongue, adiZero marking, the stripe border and the miCoach recess. 

adiZero Rose 2.5 - School of Hard Knocks


Here we go continue with the Rose 2.5 series, the School of Hard Knocks. It was worn by Rose on the second half of the Orlando All-Star game back in the February. This colorway was inspired by his upbringing in the rough neighbourhood Englewood in Chicago. Since then Rose began his path way to the NBA at Murray Park, which is known for attracting hoopers with physical style of play. It is also linked to his time at Simeon Career Academy and the University of Memphis. A very meaningful story behind, must have for Rose fans!

adiZero Rose 2.5 - St Patrick's Day


It was set to have D Rose wearing this St. Patrick's Day green 2.5 to match up against Philly on March 17, I was really excited to watch this hot colorway being worn by my Man in Green. Unfortunately Rose didn't play that day due to injury, this beautiful 2.5 missed it's chance to shine the court on camera. It's okay, leave that to me...

adiZero Rose 2.5 - Brenda


The 2.5 Brenda is a beautiful, beautiful, and beautiful master piece when it comes to price vs look vs performance. Although I still believe the 2.0 was a better signature shoe representing the true D. Rose coz the 2.5 is looking too much alike to regular releases like the adiZero Shadow. BUT, this is an awesome performance pair of Rose with absolutely no regret even if I have bought it at full retail price then found a better deal later.

adiPower Howard 2 - All Star


Centre's shoes has never been popular regardless of how great the player is. From Dikembe Mutombo, Shawn Kemp, David Robinson, Shaq, to more recent Dwight Howard, DeAndre Jordan, Andrew Bynum... etc. Although not many of them had their own signature shoes except for Shaq's old school Rebook Shaqnosis, and the Superman. I guess it has something to do with the playing style of being a centre where your job is to stay D, rebound, and low post. It is not as exciting compare to spin and crossover moves guards do, but I have to admit I enjoyed weirdo Javale McGee's and other centres playing style a lot. 

Enough BS, let's get this rolling!

adiZero Rose


You're up D Rose, finally!

The very first generation of D Rose's signature shoes after the Adidas SuperNatural he has been wearing. The best possible colorways are of course the Bulls homey white and red black away...

Crazy, Stupid, "Light"



That would be a great position to stare at. But this ain't nowhere near as crazy as what you're about to see ...
