Message: [QUOTE="Walker11, post: 2313809, member: 380"] Adidas is killing it in footwear in general. You see tons of people in Stan Smiths, Ultra Boosts and NMDs. They also have the best basketball shoes; Dames, Hardens, Crazy Explosive are all incredibly comfortable and look nice. Boost is all the rage right now. Nike still kills it and I see a lot of kids hooping in Kobe's, KD's, retro Jordan's and especially Kyries. They may be losing ground to Adidas but started with such a huge head start. I see Curry's on the feet of one group in general and that is 7-13 year old white kids. The main problem I see with the brand, other than being young and having the other brands entrenched is the fact that their logo is ugly and they feature prominently on most shoes. Fortunately for them, the new Curry that will come out this Fall and the Drive 4 have a much sleeker and understated design and actually look really nice. UA shoes are always well reviewed; no one likes the way they look and they just aren't "cool." They signed Dennis Smith and Josh Jackson this summer and I think Smith especially has tons of marketing potential due to his playing style. [/QUOTE]
