These are my barricade 6's. Black are used and White/black are just brand new! And the 360 rotation? On the sole for the shoe what is the point of the advertisement?

Gotcho back kike
Got em a few weeks ago, nice shoes, feel more stable than the 7's with very moderate break in due to the new V6 plastic window things.
Enjoy!

Is it just me or does it seem like the Barricade 6's are not flat on the bottom? It's hard to explain, but it seems like my foot ends up crammed to the outside with my toes jammed into the claws.

Got both of these a month ago. They are so much better than what everybody had said.

Precisely, Question. Barricade 6 are just like a relationship with a good woman....you have to give the relationship time to mold and soften and develop into a wonderful, comfortable fit.

A little off point but, will the superfeet insoles help if you have a shoe that feels as if it lacks proper shock absoprtion?

Superfeet are more for stability and proper firm support for the foot more so than cushioning. The orange are the most cushioned, green less, blue the least cushion, but all provide great firm arch support. They are wonderful insoles and beat the hell out of anything stock that come with shoes. But, will the Superfeet provide better shock absorption than the insoles that come with the shoes? Absolutely, YES.

Barricade 6 + Superfeet green + Nike Elite basketball socks= Nirvana:)

That's good to know. I picked up a cheap Dunlop Indoor tennis shoe and my only gripe (apart from possible suspect durability) is it's shock absorption and stability. I'll try it out stock and invest in some quality insoles if necessary.

Might post pics of the shoe if I get over the shame...:oops:

Do they fit nice i was loking into buying a pair from tw? Are they kinda like your old nikes?

I like the fit. The heel is higher than my nikes because "Arch support is slightly higher than medium height.". I don't mind, since I don't have to put an insole in it.

The shoe is solid. I haven't played with it (b/c im not sure if I want to keep it), but walking around the house, I feel really secure; in the forefoot especially. Overall, this shoe is just as cushiony as the 2.3, but I can imagine it having less durability.

Right now I'm questioning my shoe size. Practically all my life I've been with Nike and with the 2K10 it was really roomy and with the 2.3 I would occasionally get blisters even with double socks. Yet, blisters are a part of the game. So, I'm trying on different makers to spot differences. Next up, the GR3.
