  2. @immamac Can we please pin this to the top of the page/site? I’ve only read the first page of the thread and I’m already confused.😅 I’ve a feeling that I’m definitely going to need to revisit this thread later this season and won’t feel like spending a hour looking for it. Many thanks 🙏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏻🫶🏻
  3. Exactly. And should Nike choose to go down this path, I’ll take the Brand with a $55+B valuation over the competing Brand with a $28+B valuation. I mean, I get it- Adi is “having a moment” as we say in the industry. They’ve been on a roll for the last 20-24mo’s. Either one of Samba, Gazelle, Spezial and Campus are on damn near every white suburban Girl in America. And now if you walk through the Mall (yuck), you’ll see the SuperStar plastered all over FLocker/Champs, JD/Finish Line, Shoe Palace and Journeys’ windows. Hell, even at a few select Famous Footwear - Bjorn (Gulden, Global president) & John Miller (US Pres.) aren’t screwing around. They see an opportunity and are going for it- however, have no fear- Once the street- meaning the “real” Streets (NYC/Balt/DC/HTown, Chi-town/East StL, etc etc) all get tired of folk the Suburban Kids, they’ll break off again and jump back on the Swoosh. It’s the cycle. It’s been going this way for the last 50yrs.
  4. It’s a step above a Taint Reynolds.
  5. https://sgbonline.com/adidas-to-replace-nike-as-univ-of-tennessee-sponsor/ I wonder if CDC and The University have hit up Nike for NIL support across the (real) UT landscape. I see athletes with NIL deals from Vuori (Arch) and Lululemon, but not Nike…unless I’ve missed something…
  6. Well, only the toe cap, eye row (where you lace the shoe) and the heel counter are suede. The base of the shoe is nylon. However, your point stands. You could try a rain & stain repellent. I typically use the UGG repellent my wife and daughters buy AND NEVER USE, for their eleventy-billion pairs of UGG’s we own.🙄 but beware- a rain & stain COULD darken the suede- Which in this case might help it get closer to a “true Burnt Orange”, maybe??
  7. This particular Cortez is “Monarch”. Nike calls burnt orange, “desert orange”. Pantone is very similar.
  8. Yep. Their business is not goo.
  9. Just saw this. Auburn making a wise decision… https://sgbonline.com/auburn-moves-on-to-nike-from-under-armour/
  10. I worked out with him at Lifetime in Colleyville one time. Definitely hots close to home. Get healed up, Henry!🤘🏻
  11. This shoe sucks and its design can be attributed to the current trend of late ‘90’s-early ‘00’s when shoes had long swooping lines and angular TPU detailing. Aside from the AM’97 & some of the ACG line, late ‘97-‘03 Nike Basketball, Training and Running lines were very “meh” for the most part.
  12. I just copied from the below from one of Burnt Orange & White’s post in another thread. Apparently, Bobby Burton wrote this recently. It may help to answer your question… ”One interesting note: Some other schools are using a 48-hour mandatory filing rule to detain some of their players from entering the portal on a more timely basis. In other words, schools are hoping the House Settlement passes before being forced to enter a player’s name in the transfer portal. It’s an effort to retain the player by potentially deflating a player’s value, allowing their own school to be financially competitive for the player and/or a combination of both factors. The move is unlikely to work. More key players, ones Texas may target, are expected to officially enter the portal in the next 24 hours. Until the House Settlement passes there are no FMV guardrails on NIL. Other schools desperately want those guardrails when competing with Texas, Ohio State, etc.”
  13. Ouch. Mine’s not until 5/7. And I’m trying to add seats. Looks like I may be SOL to do that this year.…and yeah, I’ll need to break out the checkbook to do that.💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸😭🤘🏻
  14. and BTW, as painful as it sounds, I’d rather have peroneal tendinitis than perineal tendinitis…😳
  15. Perennial" refers to plants that live for more than two years, returning each year, while "perineal" relates to the perineum, the area between the anus and the genitals. gif *the more you know*gif
  16. He is A GREAT guy. I played Summer League ball with Mike in HS. Freakishly talented athlete. He damn near walked on to the Cowboys as an UDFA receiver.
  17. Holly balls. That’s a 405# front squat. #strongallday🤘🏻
