I can't wait to cop the Booker shoes at the outlets. They look great and I bet the feel incredible on foot. If I had to pick a brand I would say I'm three stripes so I am *loving* the way AE is being promoted.
Sykes have a Q for you - any news from UA on Joel Embiid? He's having a career year (again) and they have him in the ugliest possible shoe, fumbled from the jump. Philly is a HOOPS town and they completely missed opportunities to highlight their product here. I'm guessing he's just waiting to switch to another company but it's still sad, he's making posters here and we don't have an iconic shoe to rock in the future like AI.
The Embiid sneaker situation is so disappointing considering how good he is.
He left Under Armour in November after his deal expired and was flirting with Skechers at the beginning of the year. Nothing has come from that flirtation as of yet — Embiid still wears his Under Armour signature model for the time being. He could switch at any point, but it honestly wouldn't surprise me to see him just remain a free agent. He seems to like his kicks with UA — just didn't really fit with the brand at all.
That's the standard Saucony box that all their running shoes come in. They've been using it for a couple years now.
LOL I'm an idiot! Thank you for your insight, as always, Drew!
