If NB made theirs in 15 I would have bought them. RBK does, and I just bought them last week. They are much lighter than I anticipated and I am looking forward to trying them out.

There is a guy in our association who bought a pair of the "Reebok Ref" patent leather basketball shoes and wears them on the bases. Its one of the most offensive things I have seen an umpire wear in a long time.
