Since Wade left the Converse brand, there’s little left to expect from them but the EB2 and the Weapon EVO. While the former is an “ok” shoe that’s reasonably priced and the latter has not dropped in Singapore yet, a small yet bright spot has been nabbed by this shoe called the Vamoose.
Priced under SG$90, the Vamoose has an OG feel that’s just right for outdoor balling. Comparable to the adidas shell-toed Superstar, the Vamoose handles fine on court. From cushioning… to stability… to durability… to traction, you won’t be disappointed.
Only downside is the breathability and the inner linings that will leave chaffing if you don’t wear socks.
Other than that, the Converse Vamoose is your best but for that kicks on and off the court.



Batam Got Weapon Evo
2 01 2010Guess what I saw in my recent trip to Batam, Indonesia?
Converse Weapon Evo
Yup. The Converse Weapon Evo is already in Indonesia. And I think it’s been there for some time now because the Lakers colorway is on sale.
This redux of the popular Converse Weapon (made famous by Larry Legend and Magic) is aesthetically pleasing. It’s like the Nike Air Force 25 with improved cushioning. But unlike it’s competition, the Evo seems heavier.
Hopefully, they’ll release this in Singapore this 2010. The Weapon Evo Hi-cut looks nice. Let’s see if the mid and low cut are better.
The Weapon Evo is selling at IDR799,000 (est SG$119).
