Question for the Nike Air Max 360 fans
 
I finally picked up a pair of these off ebay. They are authentic but I think they're factory seconds b/c of the odd way some stuff lines up. You can't unless you really examine them. Anyway, they look nice but they kill my feet. They hurt really bad on the outside of my foot, right about in the middle. It feels like there's a high spot in the shoe and that's killing my feet. Other than that I like them. Anyone else experienced this or do I just need to drop some coin and try a normal pair? They're getting harder and harder to find!

They kill your feet but you still like 'em?:confused:

You'd really wear shoes to officiate that actually hurt your feet? What's wrong with that picture?

Ah, no big deal.

My head hurts when I read Chuck's posts but I still do it.

There's really no explaining human beings, is there?

I've seen an official around here wear them. The look kind of silly IMO b/c it looks like normal leather outlined in patent leather.

I like the look, they're lightweight and other than that odd issue, i like them. I've had them for 2 weekends now when I worked 4 games and then 6 this past weekend so it may be the amount of games i'm doing in a row or i got ahold of a crappy pair. I'm not ready to give up on them yet

I have the NB 888 (mid cut shoe) and i LOVE them. They're the most comfortable shoe I've worn. But I want to look cool and wear some 360s :)

You won't achieve cool status till you slick your hair back Steve Javie/Ken Mauer style.

How many times do I have to tell you, I have an afro and gel doesn't work!

Maybe you should have bought them from one of those guys who posts the "lowest" prices on Nike here and who can't speak or write English. At least you would have received a "more goodly deal". :p

I just got the Black/Black Shox Monster from Footlocker. I was gonna wait until next season to get a new pair of shoes but I got a good deal on these and went ahead and picked them up. For all you guys who like the shox collection they are a great shoe. I was going to polish them up but I am up in the air on that idea for the fact that the whole shoe will be polished with the shox included, since most of the shoe has the patent leather on them already. Any one else have these who has polished the whole shoe?

So they feel as good as look huh? I'm still debating on purchasing a pair. What are they hitting for at Footlocker? I see them for $115 at Eastbay. Let me know how the polishing goes, if you decide to go that route.

Javie doesn't even come close to Mauer in coolness!
