Now I will be talking about Basketball shoes. I play basketball and I have for a long time so I've gotten many pairs of basketball shoes. Some of the basketball shoes that I will be talking about today are Nike Hyperdunk 2017s, Adidas Crazy Explosive 2017s, Kyries, and Kobes.

The first shoe that Im going to be talking about is the Nike Hyperdunk 2017s. This is a Nike shoe that released this summer and has 3 models, a low top, a mid top, and a flynit. The Flyknit Hyperdunk is the number one rated performance shoe for Nike in 2017. The lows retail for around $120, the mid tops retail for around $140, and the flyknits retail for $160. These are a very comfy shoe and a good performance wise shoe. (picture of the Nike Hyperdunk flyknit 2017)

The next basketball shoe that I will be talking about is the Adidas Crazy Explosive 2017s. This is the best performance basketball shoe for Adidas in 2017. There are only a few colorways so far but there meant for basketball so it doesn't really matter what color. These released this summer and the retail for them is around $150. This is a primeknit shoe with an ankle socket also which is a main reason why they are so good for performance. (picture of the Adidas Crazy Explosive 2017)

The next basketball shoe that I will be talking about is The Kyries. This is Kyrie Irving's shoe for nike. There are 3 models. The Kyrie 1s, Kyrie 2s, and Kyrie 3s. His newest model is the Kyrie 3s which the first colorway realesed a while ago. This is a very popular basketball shoe and each colorway is retailed at $120.  Nike is still making colorways of these shoes but once the kyrie 4s come out that will stop. You can also customize kyrie 3s for only $165! If you don't like any of the colorways there are then just customize a pair! Everyones most favorite model are probably the kyrie 2s, but all 3 of them are very well made. (picture of the Kyrie 3s)

The last basketball shoe that I will be talking about in this blog is any model of Kobes. This shoe is Kobe Bryant's shoe with nike. There are many models so I will just be talking about one of my favorites and one of the more recent ones, which are the Kobe A.Ds. The Kobe A.Ds are a very well made shoe. There are many colorways and they are a super good for performance. Even though there are many colroways if you don't like any of them then you can always just customize a pair, but the bad thing is that for custom its $205. Retail for every colorway though is $160, which is a reasonable price for this shoe. (picture of Kobe A.Ds)

 

Something that I have learned about writing my own blogs is that it can be really fun and you can write or share about anything you want, and then it goes out into the public for other people to see. You can express you feelings about anything or share cool facts and data to anyone out there. Also commenting and looking at others people blogs shows you what they as a person is like and what they like or what there hobbies are or anything. Blogs are so important because people all around the world can show and write about what they like, or tell who they are as a person, or what they like to do or anything like that.

My favorite sneakers/shoes are Vans, some pairs of Jordan's and Yeezys. Vans are a very good shoe and they are a reasonable price. There price range is anywhere from about $50-$90. These are "skateboarding shoes" but the majority of people who have vans don't use them for skating.

There are a lot of pairs of Jordan's but my favorite are Jordan 4s, 5s, 11s, and 12s. all of these jordans have many different color ways and some of the colorways on the Jordan 4s go for more than $15,000 (The Carhartt Jordan Eminem 4s and the Undefeated 4s)!!! Luckily not all 4s go for that much and the other ones range anywhere in the $150+ range. Jordan 4s also look very cool in my opinion and that's another reason why I like them. (Picture of the Carhartt Jordan Eminem 4s)

Jordan 5s: I like Jordan 5s because once again they have many color ways and they are a pretty comfy shoe. There are a lot of cool color ways for around the $200 price range. Like some of the Jordan 4s, there are a few 5s that go for more than $1000. My favorite colorway of the Jordan 5s are the "bronze 5s", which are around the $200 price range. (picture of the Jordan 5 "bronze" colorway)

                                                                                

 

Jordan 11s: There are many pairs of Jordan 11s. Jordan 11s are pretty popular and most people know or have heard about "Space Jam 11s". I like a lot of Jordan 11s but space jams aren't my favorite, but everyone has their own opinion. Most Jordan 11 lows go for about over $180 and most Jordan 11 highs go for over $250. The most popular Jordan 11s are Space jams but my personal favorite is the pantone Jordan 11s.(Picture of Space jams 11s)

                                                                                   

 Jordan 12s: These are by far my favorite Jordan's. There are many different colorways of these and in my opinion are pretty comfy. I bought my pair for $250 but there usually priced over $200. The ovo 12s are almost everyones favorite because Jordan and drake collaborated to make these. Ovo's go for over $900+ for the white and gold ones and $500+ for the black ones. also just so you know all of these Jordan's don't really sell in store and you have to get them all online, so watch out for the fakes! (Pcture of Jordan 12 Ovo's)

   
Yeezys: Yeezys are one of the most known or heard of shoe. Its a shoe by adidas that collaborated with Kanye West and made an incredible shoe. They are extremely comfy but there are so many fake pairs out there so don't fall for all. There retail price is $220 but right after they drop they sell out right away so the best chance of you getting them is after. The only bad thing is that they all sell for $600-$1500. There are many fakes so watch out. But you can find real ones on Goat or Flightclub which are websites that sell authentic shoes. If you see them underpriced there is a 99.9% chance that they are fake so don't buy them!! (Picture of Zebra yeezys)

I hope after reading this blog about My favorite shoes, has encouraged you to want to buy more shoes/sneakers!

                                                                Introduction/about myself
My name is Zander Lindstrom and I am 14 years old, and from Des Moines, Iowa. I will be writing about sneakers/shoes in my blog. I am writing about sneakers because I love sneakers and have a lot of pairs of them. I have loved sneakers for a long time and almost all the money I get, I spend it on sneakers. I also know a lot about sneakers so that's another reason I chose to write/blog about them. I will probably only be writing about my favorite shoes, popular sneakers, sneaker releases and sneakers that I know a lot about, and maybe even some of the sneakers/shoes that I have.

                         
                                                             Sneaker blogs that I found...
One of the sneaker blogs that I found was sneaker news. This was a very well done blog and has sneaker releases, prices, news, etc. I really like this blog and if I rated it out of 5 I would probably give it a 5. I found this blog by going to a website titled top 15 sneaker blogs and it was ranked number 1. Another blog I found was sneakerhead. Sneakerhead has shoe sales, sneaker info, sneaker blog, etc. it has a whole different types of shoes like tennis shoes, basketball shoes, skateboarding shoes, etc.
