Adidas\Porsche Design Shoes

I saw these today and really like them. The adidas goodyear shoes are very good for driving and walking around in and these have a similar construction but with Porsche Design branding instead of Goodyear branding. Several color schemes are available, but I prefer the white\red.

IMO the white/red look like a pair of shoes a nurse would wear. I like Piloti Prototipo's better.

2th,

I'm a big fan of the white\black spyder SV's actually, they're on my shopping list. But at the moment I'm mostly looking for a good day-to-day shoe cuz I'm headed to Spain for a few weeks and am gonna be doing lots of walking.

Those Piloti shoes look really good, not as gawdy as my Puma Speedcats.... But Piloti only go up only as high as size 15. Bummer. I need 16s.

When I was at the Barrett Jackson auction in Palm Beach this year they had professional drivers from GM taking people for a ride in corvette Z06's (which are amazingly fast). They were all wearing Piloti's, so I asked one of them how he liked the shoes. He said he has bad arches, and finds the Pilotis to be extremely comfortable. Also by looking at how beat up the ones he was wearing were I'd assume he wore them a lot. So I'd think they would be an excellent walking shoe.

I'm planning on getting a pair once I can decide on the color. Either black/yellow to match the CS (may look a little dorky) or just black/white

I actually bought these very shoes in March, and like them alot. I got them in black, they're verycomfortable. I also bought the new Addidas Porsche design shoes from the Porsche Design store in South Coast Plaza, they're featured on the rear cover of either the current Panorama or Chrisotpherus, I forgot which, and are a cool assymetric design, but they go for the mid $300 range and aren't as comfortable when it comes to wearing them all day long.

Neither of these, however, would be my choice for a competition shoe, like the Piloti or Oakleys (my choice for the track).

I bought them too, in the bright blue. I really enjoy them. Have used them at the track before and they work great.

So I went shoe shopping and hit every store in Gainesville and the only one I found was the blue Porsche Design Mesh show for $94.99. I wasn't going to get it because I don't have many blue clothes, but after trying it out, I just couldn't help myself. I love it and it looks way better in person than it does in the pictures... very unique. The Adidas logo in the back is in a silver crest shaped just like the Porsche logo.
