Don’t mean to harsh or anything but And 1 should just seize all operations. I would not pay $70 for these , maybe $50 and that’s stretching it. Ever wonder why Seth Berger was quick to sell this company, well he knew the brand would ultimately die off .

Fila is known world wide Mr. Stokes, I doubt And 1 has the same name recognition has Fila.Let’s just say what if Grant Hill lived up to the hype and wasn’t plague by injuries, I think Fila would still be a force in the basketball niche market. Don’t forget Fila did have a nice roster with the likes of Ray Allen, Grant Hill, Jerry Stackhouse and many more. I know you used to be part of the And 1 team and by all means I’m not trying to take away from anything And 1 did in the past but the brand will never be what it was. Pleasure meeting you Mr. Stokes, I believe this will be the first of many more conversations to come. Be Good and God Bless

most comfy b-ball shoe EVER

Fila is a truly awful, it was bad when it was Italian, and now some Koreans have bought it its products are even cheaper (in production not retail) and less aesthetically pleasing. And1 is world renowned amongst ballers, mainly for their street teams, dvds, and the fact that foot locker stocks their shoes internationally. As for these, nuh uh! Pretty fugly, most of other tai chi designs/colourways are better than these + i only wear lo’s

@J. they did, well, sorta, they basically just swithced the colour from being on the inside to the outside. lol

I hear ya P but a big part of and1 success is oversees…I been around the world and Fila is deader than A.I. courtside at a Bobcats game with Steph filming and Hubie Brown and Dick Stockton doing play by play!!! Your correct I dont think the brand should be what it was, Its time to change the game like they did in the past.

Classic kicks.

Fila sucks, its made some good kicks but thats history and although And1 has definitely slipped, from its streetball teams and dvds, its got a substantial international footing. Plus im pretty sure most foot lockers abroad stock their products. As for this shoe, never been a fan of Mids or Hi’s, plus the black/red/silver/two shades of gray scheme is whack, could be dope in another colour scheme though because the design is tasty
