RTF*M*
The origin of RTFD is read the f***ing manual (often written as flaming) - a term which sprung up from people calling computer help desks asking questions along the lines of "I just poured a can of diet coke on my monitor and it doesn't work - what should I do?"

The instructions do say to remove the insole but this is not always practical, warranted, or wise. The NB608s that I first mentioned have an easily removable sock liner. This is their term for an insole. Some Reeboks also have such a liner. There is nothing special about them and they should be removed. The problem comes with shoes like the DMX Reeboks and some Asics Gel shoes. The insole appears to be part of the shock distribution system and as such is not removable. At the end of last season, the old pair of DMX shoes I use when doing rec ball started to give up the ghost. So not to use my good shoes on these courts, I put a SPENCO cross-trainer insole in over the non-removable insole with no problem. It added extra shock absorbency on the tile floors used in some gyms. So the bottom line is to use your own judgement. If you have a shoe that does not have a special shock system of its own I see no reason to leave the inner sole in. If it does have such a system than a special insole, like the SPENCO, may not be needed. [Edited by RecRef on Aug 9th, 2002 at 12:14 PM] |

The only difference in the shoe is that the ABZORB insole technolgy goes throughtout the shoe instead of just the heel area. A real good shoe just got better!

When I look on the internet for some Spenco Insole--I find several kind of Spenco Insoles. What is the Product Number and or specific kind that is best for basketball.

Why is everybody so enthousiastic on that shoe? It's not for sale in Holland, but it just looks (sorry to say) horrible, I wear Air Jordan Team Elite, and they're pretty good. But this shoe must be something special to wear, since so many refs are using them... Please give me some sweet tetimonials .

I wear 608's with Spencos They take a good shine. Haven't heard an unkind word about them until you wrote, "...it just looks (sorry to say) horrible". They must not have the "metric styling". mick |

I guess I have never thought that my shoes should look great, but horrible is a stretch. They serve thier purpose. I wear mine with sorbothane insoles which makes them soft and cushy. I just hope the 609's are as good. |

Well I'm sorry, then let me put it this way: I would never ever buy them because they look so great. Is that any better? I just meant to ask: what is so great about the shoes?
