hideous.
I know there's not a lot of sneaker conversation on this board but I thought someone might be interested.
Looks like an October release, although last year adidas released an All Star exclusive version at All Star weekend and then the regular version dropped in April.
I guess the "Stealth" name is gone, the series is being called "Adidas Team Signature." Duncan's is "TS Lightspeed."
(Pics of TMac's and Billup's are also in link.)

Usually Duncan's are more subtle than the others. Not this one.
Did you like the Stealth last year?
I agree....hideous ...though not the Air Jordan XXII ain't much better....come back Tinker Hatfield.
The duncan's look pretty good.
I like it.
I liked the Stealth too.
And the one before that...I forget it's name but it had the clima-cool vents in it.
The T-mac ones are awful, TD's isn't bad.
I don't like the T-Mac ones, but I like Duncan's and Chauncey's. The red and white with the denticulated front tread (I don't know what else to call it) looks kind of throwback. But I don't like it as much as Duncan's last two shoes.
Those white T-Macs are sick. Melo usually has the best looking shoes though.
those gonna be around $250 too? not like i was gonna buy those anyhow cause they look like cheap imitation crap but whatever...
duncan's old kicks were a lot better looking imo.
not as good as duncans shoes last year, but not bad.
Just to confirm the above link. adidas.com
It kind of reminds me of what nike did last year with the air force anniversary series. But only in the sense that the only difference in the shoes are the colors.
Ugly shoes, Nikes are way better
Hideous...embarassing...profoundly stupid. 250 sneakers...Booo! Don't these s have enough money already?
The shoes don't seem to be listed yet on adidas. That's why I used the link I did. They go on sale in October, I assume they'll hit adidas by then.
The commercial is great though. It came out a while ago. Adidas theme for this season is "Basketball Is Brotherhood." Love the lines in it.
"Players start, teams finish"
"Every team needs a hero, every hero needs a team."
"This isn't a video game, one man can't do it alone."
"We, not me."
"Talent gets you on the floor, teamwork keeps you on it."
And Duncan's: "Like (maybe "Write"? Can't quite hear him.) the name on the front of the jersey, not the back."
I'm pretty sure Timmy's saying "Like", referring to the team name being on the front of the jersey, rather than the player name on the back. Makes more sense to me.
That's my guess too.
I've watched it a few times and because he's writing on the box while he speaks I wondered if I misheard it.
Hey Kori- Nice write up on the shoe!
http://www.myairshoes.com/uncategori...e-sneaker.html
none of those shoes look good to me, i agree with lee majors.
ugly generic shoes imo. addidas is a poor mans nike. nike all the way regardless is they got little kids making the shoes... atleast those little kids got style.
adidas' cheaper shoes look way better than these to me. not talking about the sambas either, but those are probably the best looking shoes they make.
Not bad...but is the pricetag really $250 or are you guys joking??
