Does anyone have any idea where you can buy Michigan basketball shoes? Adidas is not helping. Anything like these works:

Lol I couldn't do that. I don't change for every sporting event. Just think the shoes would be a nice touch. Plus here in Nebraska it's all Husker Town. Can't find any michigan colored shoes and barely any gear.

a spot-on riposte like this!

With you know, Michigan gear, like grey shorts, those shoes, navy shirt. They'd look good with jeans too. Learn some fashion.

I can think of no reason why anyone should wear those shoes outside a basketball court.
Then again, I don't know why anyone would wear those hideous shoes on a basketball court, either, but that's just me.

the middle ones look nice to me, and the bottom ones are pretty wearable as semi-everyday sneakers.

great, more hate on all things uniformz/adidas.

Same here. I always wonder if the "HILIGHTER YELLOW OUTRAGE" crowd is simply a vocal minority.
Definitely prefer the brighter yellow to the dull orange/gold. And, historically, the original "maize" was closer to what the current maize is than the 1990 "maize."

Could you find a pic? Would love to see what they look like! Thanks!

These.
They're the adidas Speed Trainers.
Available at East Bay. MDen website is sold out. If you call them, they will have them but EastBay is a very good place to buy from.
Have a pair and am planning on getting the Speed Trainer 2s that come out next year.

Those were available for a short time after UTL III on MDen.
I scan of the website and an image search shows no results for it being for sale anymore. If you are really wanting it, give the main MDen on campus a call and they may have some since MDen has a TON of stuff at that store that they DON'T list on their site.

Good Lord those are hideous. I mean I love my team but I really, really hate those shoes.
I know it's terribly old-fashioned but I'll take simple white or black Nike's all day long please.

At one point during the time Glen Rice was indeed at Michigan, I owned the ten-year old sized equivalent of those shoes - I sort of miss the style, to be honest. Still, I can't claim to have ever had quite that inside presence, the one where you appear to be sitting on the opposition as you go up for the shot.

Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars -- Memories of High School Hoops In The '60s.

stages of wear, in my closet, neatly lined up. I would clean the rubber with toothpaste and an old tooth brush.

Unfortunately, five more decades and some extra pounds have led me to discover New Balance.
Back in 1966, when I bought my first pair of low cut black Chuck Taylor All Stars, I think I was the first person in my high school to wear them. I suspect that lots of kids in the Boston area had been wearing them for many years before then.
