Converse Wade 3 - Special Edition

Dwyane Wade wore the Converse Wade 3 during the 2007-08 season.  The shoe featured a sharp, angular design punctuated by a series of triangles stacked on the heel.  While there were plenty of colourways released for the season, these two pairs were not among that run.  NikeTalk member dandill23 apparently found these colourways at his local Converse outlet and no one, including the owner, can account for them.  It seems unlikely that they were samples, considering their appearance in US mens size 13, but the red/black and tonal brown pairs you’ll see after the jump are a mystery to us.  Take a look at the photos and let us know if you’ve seen these at your local Cons outlet or anywhere else.Read the rest of Converse Wade 3 - Special Edition© Sneaker News, 2009. |Permalink |4 comments |Add todel.icio.us close

Converse Wade 5 Sample

The Converse Wade 5 will likely never release, due to Dwyane Wade’s switch to Jordan Brand. Yet, here are some sample pictures to give us a look at what the Wade 5 could’ve been.This shoe features many visible technical facets in the heel. There is visible air cushioning as well as an exterior plastic structuring through which the laces are laced. Presumably, this latter feature would aid in heel lockdown. As it stands, the Wade 5 is on hold. There’s a good chance it won’t release ever, but if it drops without the Wade name, could you see yourself playing in these?Head to the comments section and let us know how you feel.Read the rest of Converse Wade 5 Sample© Bert Geyer for NiceKicks.com, 2009. |Permalink |7 comments |Add todel.icio.usPost tags: Converse, Converse Wade 5 close

Converse Wade 1.0 Vulcanized

Nike got the sports sole-turned-vulcanized movement moving with its AC series, and it looks like little brother Converse was on the same track when they whipped up these Wade 1.0 samples.Donning a greyscale colorway, these sit on a white vulcanized sole. Red is used as an accent throughout, appearing on the liner and the slats in between color panels along the side and for contrast stitching. Wade’s Converse logo appears on the tongues, which are mismatched at this point in the design process.This is probably yet another sample that is dead in the water, but would you grab some if they ever made it to production? Head to the comments section and let us know.Read the rest of Converse Wade 1.0 Vulcanized© Alex Kroviak for NiceKicks.com, 2009. |Permalink |4 comments |Add todel.icio.usPost tags: Converse close
