Over the summer the Miami Heat’s Dwyane Wade made a big move and left Converse for Team Jordan. There were some rumors about D Wade refusing to wear a version of his own signature shoe from Converse over the course of last season. Some called it “curious,” some called it a mystery, well people lets just call a spade, a spade. The shoe sucked. Converse has not made a quality basketball shoe since the Chuck Taylor’s. You know it, I know it, the American people know it. The only difference is now D Wade knows it. When Wade signed with Converse that was a huge win for them. They had a golden opportunity, rising star with a lot of potential, (similar to another 2 guard who got swooped up by Nike in 85’) then he went on and won a championship in 2005. Perfect. Now, his feet hurt. Converse blew it. Not only did they design an uncomfortable shoe, but also one of the more ugly signature shoes ever made. In my humble opinion Wade deserved better. Every legit star...
