Any one have any interest in an RBK soccer shoe?
The shoe is set to drop on 6/1. It's preety cool. Kind of an RBK logo on the Baleni shoe but it has alot of tech in it. you don't even have to wear laces.
has anyone heard any buz? our store is iffy about it.

F50 rip-off. For the price they want, you can just buy the F50....

No offence, but I think the F50 is worth no more of its price than these Reeboks.
And as we have discussed in the other thread, Adidas' design of the F50 was pretty much stolen from the earlier Reebok Baleni boots. Esp the hidden lacing.

i was the one who stated that adidas ripped off the f-50 idea from reebok ;)
as for those boots the owner of the shop i work in tried them on when the reebok rep brought them by and he said they are the most comfortable boots he ever tried on

the technology behind the boot is really cool. it has a memory neoprene like material that is inside the whole shoe to give a great fit. and like I said you don't even have to lace it up. The baleni was a nice boot but that did not fly in our store no mater how hard I pushed it. I guess in today's market quality does not matter it's all marketing. RBK has a great plan and I guess we will see where it goes. keep on the look out to win a free pair of these bad boys.

They match the Man united kit pretty good, and they don't look all that bad. I'd be interested in trying them on at least, see how they fit and feel.

6/1 is the date for the shoe. There is a silver/red color a white/royal color and then a kangaroo black/grey/yellow color.

They look nice. What's the purpose of that loopy-thing on the back of the shoe though?

that is to help put on the shoe. beacause if fits so snug they use that to help get on the shoe. i think it might even come with a shoe horn. the neoprene on the shoe is a great fit but you got to wiggle your way into it.

Are there laces at all on these boots? I can't tell from the picture. That would also explain that loops to help pull the shoe on.
