M-Hoops Shoes!!

a pair on ebay. Was told they were worn today by D-Mo!!!! I can resell them at a higher price if you'd like.

While those shoes are cool, I don't like them with the maize jerseys.  I'm accustomed to seeing black shoes and black socks with the maize jerseys, so the white socks and multi colored shoes looked out of place.

The maize jerseys should always have black shoes and black socks. Can't go wrong with a long pair of maize shorts and some homage to the Fab 5. (I wish the block M's on the shorts today were still this big also.)

Definitely not a fan of the shoes that were worn today. I was, however, a fan of the outcome of the game...

I vote no.

Those are sweet!  Kinda remind me of the old Nike Air Hurrache that the fab five wore before they switched to black!  Anyways....  Thanks for the help!

Rothstein had a brief item on the shoes at annarbor.com, and he asked Darius Morris about the switch from the black shoes/black socks:

So what happened? 

“I don’t know, our equipment manager put it in our locker room. I asked the team did they want to do this instead of the black socks and black shoes,” sophomore guard Darius Morris said. “I guess people wanted to show these off, I guess. I was okay with it.

“But we’ll definitely be going back to the black shoes, black socks.”

...there is no accounting for taste. Probably a good thing, too.

some influences of the fab five were definitely for the better...

I say stay with the new shoes, don't mess with success. I notice the Adidas logo on the socks, but it's not blatant on the shoes.

I tried out the new D,Rose shoes being a Bulls fan. I had to take them back after one use since they gave me a blisters on my feet while hooping. I fault me more than the shoe since I have very flat feet. Adidas shoes run narrow so thats my problem. Had to go back to the 2010 Jordan shoes. The D.Rose shoes are the lightest shoes I have ever balled in. We just didn't mesh well. If you have a wide/flat foot I would pass but if you don't than they should be a good shoe.
