OT - Sweet Adidas Kicks
Not sure if people have seen this, but adidas actually allows you to custom-design your own shoes (based on an existing model ofc). They got a bunch of different styles, and they have all the right colors for epic maize-n-blue shoes. They even have "sun" - our "new" uni color (since Nike copyrighted maize, adidas 'invented" sun) - as a choice for almost everything.
I decided to trick out some sweet gazelles.

Thoughts?
Try it out for yourself and share designs.
Those are awesome, but I don't think I could pull them off. Many props to you if you can, though.
I would make the middle stripe sun as well, and the toe white, but that's just me. If I didn't already have UM adidas and flip flops I might be able to justify moar shoes.
Girl, I was thinkin the same thing!! (I seriously was.)
The toe needs wings
edit: "our toes have wings" - Get started on the new Big Ten Network commercial
Yep, these are pretty bad ass. I agree the middle stripe should be sun as well. And I like changing the interior to sun... the off blue looks weird to me. I just might have to get these!
That one looks a little more like UCLA (which is also an Adidas school).

I would be all over these if they were a darker shade of blue...
These are awesome. I'm adding these to the Christmas list.
Found these at the mall a few months ago and bought them immediately:
The tongue and heel have the retro adidas logo on them.
those are sick. i would buy them
Anyone know any of these shoes that come in widths? I've got wide feet and I usually have to buy new balance (12 EEEE).
But i'd love one of these. I checked out a couple different styles on the website, and there is a "Width" option, but for all the ones i looked at they are only available in medium widths
okay, two revised candidates...
upon further review, i do like having the stripes be all sun. i do like the lighter blue, cuz it seems a bit less serious.
I say go with the darker blue. The light blue makes it look like the old Rams colors.

"It seems a bit less serious"?!?!?!?!?!
Maize & Blue shoes is serious business bro.
In addition to the block M's, I know on some of the styles at least you can get embroidery on one of the stripes. I think adding "MICHIGAN" on each shoe steps it up to another level.
i have my initials on the stripes.
My maize and blue Nike Air Max 95s. Oh yea, they're sweet.
was the song by Run DMC.
that is one sweet looking shoe, if it only had the #73 for big will campbell

the #72 on the shoe is for the year the Swoosh first appeared on Nike shoes. 1972
Yeah, I bought these Nikes above about 5 months ago. They are patiently waiting, in their shoebox, for me to wear them the for first time. Which will be on September 4th.
They almost look like bowling shoes.
Not sure how to embed something like this, but these are pretty awesome too
Got all excited that I was finally going to be able to get a pair of Team Zissou shoes but they don't have a light blue...
Still rules the ocean and the world.
Cool shoes, guys.
alright, after much deliberation, i finally went ahead and bought these:

I always like the classic. And been collecting since 1995. I even restore them from my guys in nushoe and nushoeinspectandcorrect for maintaining their looks.
