    No, I just don't want to go out and buy fucking knee socks to go with my basketball-boots.

    Seriously, the hi-tops are lame. Although I didn't realize Converse made anything not worn exclusively by hipsters and gutterpunks alike. Interesting.

    get the Converse x John Varvatos collabos. Personally I found converse uncomfortable as fuck.

    the black on black ones? they're pretty non-conspicuous.

    what are you looking for? all we know is you don't want to look like a hipster and don't want high tops.

    Generally. Something sleek, something I can ball in every day and still wear with normal clothes.

    I think Nikes are about it. Reeboks are pretty shitty. Adidas has some cool stuff, but not in basketball. Probably cross trainers would be the best, if you are find with 3/4 tops.

    See, those look absolutely awful to me, but I guess it's all about personal taste.

    If you wear them to all these places they must stink really bad.

    I'd recommend New Balance for wide feet people since you can order them in various widths.

    BTW - Nike owns Converse. They bought them out a few years ago.

    Leather insoles inside, they smell fine. The traction on them has been excellent, wearing them out takes a long time and I've abused the shit out of them (took them to the Philppines and also to Mexico a bunch of times and the terrain there is terrible)

    I wear them almost everyday. When they eventually wear out, I will buy another pair.

    :cheers:

    The last time I went and bought shoes for basketball, my only request was that they make the statement that I have no game whatsoever.

    If I wear tennis shoes otherwise, I wear Adidas Sambas, Adidas Rod Lavers or blue suede Pumas.

    I don't think even Bishop Don "Magic" Juan would wear those.
