breh have you tried on a pair they are the most comfortable basketball shoes out right now. If they were the John walls they would ship out as well flat out the shoes are dope.

Like most said I rock with the initial plan lavar had but you need infrastructure and most of all money to get this going I would have loved to see him take one deal and then use that money to venture into owning the brand. meh guess we will see how it goes.

The Kyries have basically no support. From a specs. standpoint the PG1 is essentially the Kyrie with a little more forefoot cushion:yeshrug:

who balling in adidas boost breh and drose and lilliard shoes are trash 2 I said the shoes are dope looking as well as being great to hoop in 3 its not just based off popularity the man who has the number 1 selling jersey two years in a row cant move his shoes at Under armour

Harden.

Boost more comfortable than any Nike cushioning. 350s and UBs are ridiculous.

the under armour's aren't moving because they're ugly as fukk (not to mention curry took a hit by losing in the finals and having kd take his shine). athlete popularity + brand identity + look of the shoes all factor in shoe sales.

It just so happens the Kyrie 3, designed for the shifting, darting Irving, is built with extra support (called suspension pods) on the sides of the shoes to prevent ankles from rolling and, more specifically for Korver, from putting too much weight on the outside of his foot. :jbhmm:

I'll listen to actually NBA players and myself go buy some and go hoop the shoes are great

i doubt that. :francis:

most modern basketball shoes are comfortable with the new technology in them. adidas boost feel like :noah: on your feet but derrick rose and damian lillard shoes are not that hot out chea.

most people are not buying kyrie's because of how comfortable they are, but because of 1. it's nike 2. they like the way they look, an 3. most importantly they like kyrie and want any shoes associated with him.


The shoe business is a hard business


Curry is number 1 in jerseys sales but his latest shoes sales are disappointing according to the UA CEO

breh getting any signature sneaker to move is a challenege....even for nike who has been in the business for years

even for adidas who has been in the business for years

and to move a $200 one?

getting $5 million in sales on this one would be impressive to me
shyt i'd be impressed if he could sell $100k worth.

This article came out before the PG1 was even released:heh:









"Moving on to cushion, what isn't going to beat the Kyrie 3? its basically drywall, they made a new material that's actually harder than diamond"
