I have seen guys wearing Shox with patent leather toes. I liked the look and like running in the other Shox I have had. Does anybody have any idea on how to order them? I had been told you can create them on the Nike website but I havent had any luck. Anybody have any ideas?

i also don't like the look of nike shocks for reffing, the converse with a good insole are good enough for me

New Balance

I prefer the New Balance 609. Put a good insole in those and you can run all day. Any patent leather is going to be like plastic and not breathe. I don't get how people can wear those Converse patent leather. Might as well wrap your feet in a plastic bag.

Thumbs up shox

Mregor, hit right on the head. You can't beat the New Balance shoe.

Amen! I bought a Dr. Scholl's insert that makes 'em even more comfortable.

One question for the panel: How do you all feel about polishing your reffing shoes? Mine are clean and in good condition, but I don't really see the need to polish them. Am I being unprofessional?

Polish

I always give them a good shine early in the year and then use the Kiwi liquid polish for touchups before each game. Looks better IMO.

Hmm

I made and all black Nike Shox on the nikeid, and I really liked it. I am now considering getting some for the upcoming season.

My only problem is that I don't know if those who would be potentially scouting/evaluating you to move up would like them any.
