I love them. I wish I would have gotten a smaller size though. From my experience, an 11 in Nike may be a 10.5 in Reebok.

All I've really seen this year are guys wearing $140 full length Nike Air Max of some kind or another (mail order type) or the Zigs.

Have the New Balance become obsolete? Are there associations where they are still popular?

Also, I don't watch a lot of college ball, is New Balance still a standard?

I wore the 2008 Air Max for several years and loved them. After switching to the patent leather Zigs last season, I'll probably never go back to the Air Max. They are that good of a shoe.

Love the Zig

Bought them last year...love them. Chronic foot and ankle pain went away completely. Many guys in our pool have gone to them. In my experience, the look of them gets nothing but compliments.

You wear them in the pool? Wow, that's multi-purpose!

I'm am going to break down and give these a try. Since I am part of the generation that wants things now - does anyone know of a location in the LA area that stocks these? I will be there soon for some games and would buy them in person as opposed to ordering online.

This is a warning. Once you put them on, you wont take them off.
