      That is true.. I can only think of TMac who had an adidas signature at that time. I know adidas went with the whole Team Signatures back then. Ohh and they gave Gilbert Arenas a quiet couple of signatures.

    I played in em and it really needed some break in time... Traction was okay (7/10) but the overall feel of it running with em is great... It felt bulky but it was really comfortable.
    Im really happy they brought this back coz I never had a chance to wear them back in the days.

    I have two pairs of T Mac's. The 3's and the 4's. Used to have the 2's in the Low version, but I think my mom gave them away a few years back. They had terrible materials on them.
    I took the 3's out 2 years ago to shoot some hoops after they've been in the closet for 12-13 years and when I got home I realized the outsoles were starting to peal off due to the contact with air and heavy use.
    I can't play in the 4's because not only are they heavy as shit, but they're also stiff too. Literal tanks.
    If I can find some good glue I'll take off the outsoles on the 3's and glue them back, because they're quite comfortable and use them outdoors whenever I go to play.

    The tmac 1 is one of my all time favorite shoes to play in. Once those broke in they just felt so good to me and I felt super locked in, great court feel, and the reaction was A1. However, I absolutely hated thr Tmac 2. It wasn't that different but to me felt awful on court

    I had the O.G.s, in black, and I remember they did need break in time, and the cushion back then was decent, but it definitely wasn't nike air (my normal go to since forever). I still have my O.G. 5s too, they're unwearable now, but easily one of my favorite sneakers that I've been blessed enough to own.

I wore mine to the gym for like a week and they broke in great! Bounce can be felt like crazy, I won't say they're like boost, but damn near (first time owning an Adidas shoe with Bounce). I feel that your review will be different once you've broke them in, "If" you keep them. Dope Videos per usual!

      So... having worn both, some observations: I personally didn't find them too tough to get on, but I did loosen up the laces a lot beforehand; they are surprisingly comfortable and super chunky on foot - reminds me of the Yeezy 700 V1; and finally, these crease up like a mutha, but i don't mind at all. Ymmv. Love em.

    I bought both the white and black pairs as well. Went TTS. And INDEED, it’s hell putting these on. They are super snug. I bought the blacks to possibly play in. Haven’t worn them on court yet. And honestly nervous to try them out. Lol.

    Checks over stripes all day BUT seeing these they need to bring back the old school Kobe's... I believe i had the Kobe addidas the all black ones( looked like space shoes especially at that time lol. Loved them). The ones that he came out riding a Street bike. Then he walks thru L.A. to the Staples arena in a black bike suit w those🔥🔥🔥

    Had these back when i was a kid and i still remember up to this day how painful it was to get this shoe on. I went true to size and boy was that a mistake, every time I took it off my pinky toe was always numb because it doesn't have much wiggle in the front foot area. Anyone getting these probably needs to go 2 sizes up.

    Protro is what adidas has been missing. Their shell toe designs are extremely underrated. Restomod everything. The t-Mac 1’s need another restomod because the recent re release is not exactly a true restomod

    Never bought T-Macs, but the blue-on-white pair look good
