We tested out the Converse Star Player EVO on the courts and present to you how they performed in this video. Enjoy.

Converse and Elton Brand officially unveiled the EB3, Elton Brand’s 3rd signature sneaker with the brand.

Brand’s new kicks actually look good this time around, 3rd time’s a charm right. These retro inspired sneakers not only look nice, but they feature some pretty decent performance attributes as well. Fully decked out with a lockdown strap, perforated leather and Converse’s Balls technology for cushion in the heel.

All of this can be yours at an affordable retail price of $59.99 over at JCPenny. At that price, I’d at least give them a chance on the court.

Growing up, Dwyane Wade evolved his game on the asphalt and in the dimly lit Richards High School gym in Robbins, Illinois, playing for hours in the stifling Midwestern summertime heat. His tireless determination and undying persistence helped him overcome academic issues at Marquette University, leading the Golden Eagles to the Final Four in ’03. DWade’s success has continued at the game’s highest level, where his tedious practice habits, unmatched skill set and poised leadership have merited five NBA All-Star Game appearances and the coveted NBA Finals MVP Award in 2006. In 2008-09, Wade has put on the bookbag, decimating would-be defenders with an assortment of chopped goodies and watery range that’s got Floridians proclaiming “WADE County” once again. He’s averaging 30.2 points per outing, which is tops in the league, and has transformed the undervalued Miami Heat from likely pretenders to unprecedented contenders. Through it all, Dee’s sported variations of his first signature shoe, the WADE 1. Converse reissued the shoe in all of its black/white/red glory to celebrate their stud’s stat-stuffing season. The Converse Wade 1 is available now in limited numbers at Champs for $90. Via Bounce.

“Dwayne Wade’s belief is stronger than your doubt.” Travel along with Wade and Converse as they chronicle the guard’s ascension towards superstardom amidst doubters, haters, and academic problems. I love this commercial and have loved Dwayne since I saw him play in person years ago when he was at Marquette. His game is the epitome of smooth, a combination of basketball savvy and calculated athleticism. I also dig the Wade IV, (Though a Chevron logo across the middle panel would’ve been exponentially hotter than the standard circle-star format!) a shoe that’s been met with plenty of displeasure on message boards across the Internet.
