Grant Hill destroyed his career by relying on the "technologies" of FILA. Because we all know when we think about high quality athletic products, we think about Fila and Li Ning first! Good decision DWade! More ammo for LBJ to leave MIA once you get injured repeatedly like G Hill! :bowdown:

Evan Turner must be pissed. He was actually the "signature" athlete of something.

I have friends who run professional track and field, based on what they tell me, Li-Ning plays handsomely and also gives you a huge input on how your shoes will come out. Nike and other brands don't pay you as much and you don't get as much of an input on your shoes.

Jordan Wades were ugly imo...
Never seen a Li-Ning, doesnt sound that great though, wait and see what they look like i guess...

my personal experience with li-ning basketball shoes is that they lack good cushioning. So I hope they step up their game when it comes to building a shoe for Wade

Tell me about it, I own a pair of the Baron Davis Conquer shoes, worst cushioning ever other than that though shoe was great.

- one of the most comfortable shoes ever....these Wade's 06' were the best of his line.


- kinda strange he left Nike/converse for Li Ning.

Just tweeted by Wade

I liked Wade being w/ Converse and giving them legitmacy again. Plus, they were made by Nike. And those shoes posted up top are probably his most iconic ones, and as explained were WELL performing shoes and were significantly less expensive compared to other sig shoe alternatives.

I think sig shoes under the "Jordan" brand is an oxymoron. It's a MJ shoe, but they had sigs for Melo, Wade, and CP3 ... all which don't sell well?

Jordans should strictly be shoes about the man with the name sake and legendary status.
