Why you playing? I actually have a pair and they are comfortable. I wanted to try them out. So far so good.😉

The Ref - Patent Leather by Reebok. Got a new pair that should last me hopefully two season then I'm probably switching to NB.

Hey so do I. I purchased the Starburys last year and wore them. And last week I purchased the new ones, I think it called Starbury 2 or something like that.

Anyone tried the Pentagon shoes that are out for officials?

I ordered a pair of Nike ID Shox.... you design them, patent leather, add initials, short name and such. They look good; now I will see how they wear.

I thought about doing this with the Air Max...I tried Shox and just not sure I like them as well as the Max....Like all of us...I need some pillows on my feet...I've got tendonitis in both knees and at least I can keep my dawgs comfy! 😮 😀

I feel your pain Dogg..🙂 I think they offer at least three types now that you can modify "your" way. Again I have no idea how they will do after a season. For now I really like the feel and I only wear them on the court.

Hey what kind shoes from Nike did you design. Can you give me some ideas.

Design my be stretching it, but you go to Nike ID website http://nikeid.nike.com/nikeid/index.jhtml;nisessionid=4BGAUSLC5NN0ACQFTAPCF3Y?_requestid=7229630#home Choose mens... pick which Nike Platform you want to start with and it will walk you thru the process. You can view the shoe as you build it. I think they created these for teams to have matching shoes. I made all of the colors black, with patent leather, added my initials on the side and Splute on the strap. I chose the Shox Elite.....

I went to NikeId to design some shoes, chose the Shox R4's. Whenit was all said and done they wanted $170.00. Changed my mind. Went on Ebay and found some R4's All black for alot cheaper. I like them so far, authentic off the shelf all black shoes with only a little white reflective on the toe and heels (easily covered by marker). I hope they last the year I am concerned about the shox blowing out.

You mean the "Chrysler's"😃 ? Just bought a pair, but haven't broken them in yet.

Do you guys prefer natural or patent leather style shoes? Some refs think patent leather is drawing attention to yourself and others think it looks more professional. Don't know if any coach, assignor, or AD has ever commented on shoes.

Splute

When I was trying to get involved in officiating I had no idea what was needed. The info I read said "shiny solid black shoes", thus I bought Patent leather. I have gotten a lot of positive comments by other officials. Even my children wanted a pair.🙂 So by accident I have patent and they are growing on me. I always thought Patent leather was for women's shoes.... 🙂

I've got NB something, can't remember the number. I don't go for the patent leather stuff, as I had an official tell me they don't really breathe very well, and my feet need breathing.

I was thinking about picking up a pair of these, but do you all think the white around the swoosh & in the arch is non-compliant (all black).
