I got a pair yesterday but was wondering if you guys have any comfort issues with balling in them. So far they look good.

I thought that you meant that Deron kicked somebody in the balls.

ya he has white ones as well i have both pairs and i love them both, they did take some good breaking in though. i hear he has some new ones coming out sometime in the future, maybe even the ones he currently wears.

They are the same shoes made by Nike for the Olympic players, are they not? And if Im not mistaken, since Deron is in Utah, he is a second tier player from a marketing standpoint, and the same exact shoe is also sold for Brandon Roy fans and someone else. Maybe not Roy, but a couple of other good young players have that same shoe to endorse....

Durant, Williams and Roy share the same shoe. Durants shoes looks...well just as good as their jerseys...

Rudy Gay too, no?

Love the kicks, but the last pair of Nikes that I bought didn't last very long. Got a hole in the big toe on the right shoe, then the left heel was falling apart. I went with a cheap (on sale for $30 from $50), but nice pair of Reeboks this time.

thanks guys..yeah..im not into shoes for branding/player names etc. I just want the most comfortable shoe that is somewhat affordable.

I noticed these shoes have a lot of spacing in the toe area. Can't wait to try them out on the court. Looks to have good support for ankle and just very solid build.

And sloanfeld, nike has 1 year warranty for damage/defects so if you had sent it back to them, they would have replaced it within a year.

I'm a deron/cp3 fan..likke their style of play...reminds me of jameer's haha.

UGH, noted for next time. And I couldn't play for two months with a stress fracture, could have replaced them during that time.

DWill's signature shoes (and those of Roy, Durant and Rudy Gay, as you have already all mentioned), are versions of the Nike Blue Chip shoe. It's a pretty popular shoe- I see players on almost every NBA team and on a lot of the Nike college teams wearing them this season.

I bought a pair of the white DWill Blue Chip ones and I like them a lot. However, as someone else mentioned, D has recently begun wearing a different set of shoes and not these blue chip ones. Not sure what the model is that he's wearing these days.
