Hi, guys.
When I was younger I had a pair of Nike bballshoes and I loved them. So comfortable and cool looking. I had them for so long but one time I went up for a dunk during a game and landed on my heel and the air bubble popped. I've looked for them so long but since I forgot the name of the shoe I haven't been able to check em up yet, til now..

So, what's the name of the model?http://flatrock.org.nz/topics/science/assets/carter_at_camp.jpg

I definitely have no idea, but what year was it? Could definitely narrow it down by checking what year it was and looking for a list of basketball models Nike threw out that year. Doubt it's a retro, so it shouldn't be that hard. :P

Yey, finally someone answered, haha!
I remember players having them on in the european basketball championship in 2003 in Sweden. I also remember having them in 8th and 9th grade and that was around year 2003-2004.

Do you have any idea where I can look for what model it may be?

Hi, dear **********.
Did you have to make your introduction in this thread about a basketball shoe? And did you have to spam us with your shitty links?

It's hard to tell from the pics and I can't find an exact match but these also look close

I think they are called Air Wavy Max

I know, man.
I appreciate it that you looked as well but it ain't those, the pic I posted is shitty, I know:)

Mine had leather like material all the way on top and were lower than those. It's so strange no one knows what shoe it is cause when I played in them many ballers had them, even pro's.

Is that DJ Strawberry when he was at Mater Dei H.S? I think they are either the Nike Foamposite Lite or the Pippen 4's? I have seen them before but like others that shit just isnt ringing a bell !

Looking at the shoe more, it looked pretty familiar to me, so I decided to look it up. I think it's these.

Damn, I never imagine it would be this hard to find the name of the shoe. It's odd 'cause when I had them a lot of people had the model and even some pro players used them.

I may be all wrong but I think it was Nike Air something..

Btw, guys, the air bubble is only on the back of the shoe.

wasnt the shoe lard too? as far as like the foamposites to where it wasnt soft? I am a shoe whore I have 100+ pairs of sneakers BUT never had these because when I was young we could afford them, which is also the reason I buy all retro shoes that come out because now I can get them. I will continue to look...go to pickyourshoes.com that is where you might be able to break shoes down to see if they are them. yes they are Nike's though because that is all I wear and I ended up getting the Juwan Howards instead of those shoes you are looking for.

The shoes seem reminiscent of the Jordans 14s. The ones MJ wore when he shot that shot over Russell in the 98 finals.

Sorry, but that's still not the same shoe.
Mine had leather on them, not plastic and they were a bit lower and there was no nike brand on the back side over air bubble. Not the same shoe.

I'm going crazy, I never imagine it would be this hard to find the freaking shoe. Should I email nike, lol?

the Pure profile max was my favorite basketball shoe of all time and I own 4 pairs, only one left on ice.
They're like a superior version of the 2nd penny hardaways crossed with the early garnetts, as far as support, weight, and comfort go. GREAT shoe.

Try the Nike Air Uptempo Ultramatic TB, they look exactly like these.

Last suggestion, but these I think are the ones...try the Air Choosen TB.

I can guarantee that you are talking about the Air Max Chosen. Occasionally a pair pop up on Ebay, but in general that are almost impossible to find...I know because they
