Dear all the sifu, I am looking for white sneaker and so far narrow down to the below 2 choices:
1) Converse Jack Purcell Signature Leather - RM499
2) Adidas porsche design 356 - RM530

Tried on both and found that the converse is more comfortable.

Any comment?

If you want white and comfort, the Adidas Boost is probably one of the best.

1) That's a very expensive JP. Stupid expensive. You can get a ton of better more comfortable sneakers at that price. Or get a normal JP and add in your own preferred insole.

2) NO.

The CT2 perhaps?

I seriously feel Ultraboost is more towards casual than "best running shoe". Nowhere is it near that from what I read, most people who are serious runners prefer other Adidas models. Apparently UB too "squishy" and "springy", non responsive like running using springs. Unless you're talking about most comfortable, then it probably wins.

Most runners want shoes that absorb the impact of the feet hitting the pavement while remaining solid, like you said, comfort isn't exactly the top of the list when you are doing 20-40km runs. I've enjoyed my runs on FiveFingers far more than any other running shoes I've owned.

'Ye has always been just 'Ye. He can sell anything, and people around the world, even those who do not understand what or why, will go for the brands and models he reps.

Personally, I'm more into the aesthetics and both the soles of the Boost and Tubular series look interesting; and since its a solid one-piece with no air unit, I have the impression it can/will last longer than air maxes. My older Nikes that were not stored properly (i.e. not bagged, stored in cool, dry spot) have all had crumbling soles.

Adidas have quite an interesting line-up these days, with many of the colourways released looking really good. But a GR like NMD going for over RM1k at resell is just... wow. Willing buyer willing seller, I guess. I'll stay away :-)

So, 'Ye's to blame for the UB white being sold out like a mofo? vmad.gif vmad.gif

Ya man. He wore it in one show and everyone loses their minds.

Refer to my previous post and you can buy them at retail from eBay ... just have to be willing to swallow the shipping and import duty.

Only left sizes 8 and 9 though.

I know the history behind it, just teasing biggrin.gif

Nope, as much as I like a good pair of sneakers, I'm not gonna cop one just to put it on display. So it will be used, and it is just not worth the effort for something that is meant to be worn and worn well.
