Uniforms—Logos—Court Designs—Socks—Sneakers—Headbands—Mouthguards

Portland was just a fine liberalish town with a nice bookstore and a bunch of good movie theaters until about ten years ago when it became some kinda post-college destination. And then the last few years the tech-boom + portlandia element led to me praying for the willamette to rise and wash it all to sea.

its legal to push unicyclers into traffic read yr constitution

hey if jordan comes around this is my general "hey Jordan can I pitch a gawker piece about how Fred armisen and a bunch of bezos jrs turned my perfectly nice and quiet city of mopey guitar players into an upscale sportsbar circus for brocoders and podcasters who can't get past level 2 of their intro to improv classes" thanks in advance bud

so like this http://gawker.com/how-amazon-swallowed-seattle-1724795265

but about portland?

sounds good to me

i'll read that tonight and talk to some longtime residents and see if i can find a worthwhile angle, but i'm sure the mercury and the willamette week have prob done this article a hundred times already. but it might be interesting to
write it for an audience that isn't people who already live here and have the same complaints.

Who's lurking?

avia made the worst dad sneaks but the 1988 iteration of drexlers were pretty good and are overlooked imo http://images.complex.com/complex/image/upload/c_limit,fl_progressive,q_80,w_680/lfy20t5n3g4bzsnaeou2.jpg

feel those

these new stephs are getting ROASTED on twitter lol

hahaha been watching that. tho in a v perverse way this thread and those twitter roasts make me want to get some of these shoes. i firmly fall into the unintentional normcore fashion aesthetic and have purchased more than my share of clothes at costco. my most recent sneakers were $12 dollar store nike knockoffs.

just do you bro

im married, 30, got a kid, and im dad fat, but i can still outrap like 95% of the human population if im being honest. fuck it.

I'm probably too old even for regrettable dad sneakers. I played ball in the street. Badly. In whatever were the cheapest sneakers available. When Phil Knight was still selling shoes from the trunk of his car.

hahahaha

how does the world's best baller sign off on these shoes, howwwwwwww

this is a true test to the power of the endorsement

he doest wear lo tops in game so he won't have to wear them on court. but i hope he wears them tonight and torches the cavs for 60

Baze sticking up for his bro/UA

https://twitter.com/24Bazemore

a true brand ambassador

he's prob making more money from his stock in UA than he is from his nba contract

For real y'all ever put on a pair of Nike Monaco type jams, can't speak to that one specifically but some of their dad shoes are some comfortable ass kicks

ESPN should amend the "how Nike lost steph" article though and just add a photo of those with the price is right you lost theme playing on a loop

lmao

in case u missed some

not a fan of big elaborate side stripes especially when theyre on the jersey too, nor of logos on the shorts and that one is lol huge and embarassingly shoehorned into the stripe, good branding design/bad fashion design imho

also theres black in the logo but grey in the uni wth

feeling the black one, interest to see how it looks on court with the gray down one side only

also lol SAC on a jersey is classic

kinda weird they didn't use black a little more in the details yea. almost feels like nash-era suns unis

that font is not inspiring confidence in me, i liked it before but its looks p out of place on the jersey

u know its against the nba rules for a team to revert back to an old uniform which is funny since theyre universally better

i did not know that.

the font is very short and stocky

logo on the shorts is def a travesty

ya not quite sure what the logic is no doubt something to do w selling merchandise xxp

they want to have the old unis for throwback purposes prob, then sell the old and the new

celtics did manage to change their road unis to read boston instead of celtics which is a reversion to the russell era

also lol SAC on a jersey is classic

its funny too its otherwise exactly the same as the standard one

i like the black one a lot

yeah that stuff about not being able to go back to old logos is weird. iirc the hawks wanted to go back to the old red/yellow color scheme but the NBA wouldn't let them so that's why they ended up with red and highlighter yellow.
