Converse Dwayne Wade II
Posted by Matt Halfhill | Aug 31, 2006
Miami Heat guard Dwayne Wade certainly accomplished alot while wearing his first signature shoe last year. He earned a spot on the NBA All-Star Team, won an NBA Championship, and was named the NBA Finals MVP. Rather than taking a relaxing summer break, Wade is back on the court representing Team USA at the FiBA World Championships.
The Converse D-Wade II looks amazing. Following in the footsteps of the previous model, the Converse D-Wade IIs are a very unique design. So unique that that only shoe that slightly resembles it is the Converse D-Wade I.
Right now, Dwayne wade is tearing up the international competition wearing these sneakers in patriotic colors, but expect to see some sevearl colorways including black/red this fall. Pics from kenlu.net.

ill get these just because of D Wade

THESE SHOES IF OFF THE CHAIN!!
Aug 31, 2006 at 2:15 pm
These shoes are super ugly. I love D wade but his shoes suck. As the Lead dog for cons u think they could come up with something better. The back of the shoe is what really turns me off. I’ll pass on these.

“The back of the shoe is what really turns me off. I’ll pass on these.” - size 12
Everyone has different tastes. Personally I think the back of these shoes make them so unique. I love the design of these shoes and how original they are. I wish other sneaker companies could put in effort like Converse did for these.

the shoe looks like its bin in a fight ugly shoe but d wade is the man
Aug 31, 2006 at 3:12 pm
the only reason these came out so sick is because nike owns converse
Aug 31, 2006 at 3:48 pm
nothin wrong with these, they aright, and I think the D Wade 1 Playoff was the BEst shoe of 06′. I mean Great style, Everybody wanted them, and a refreshing take on comfort, and not to mention great basketball shoes. One of a kind
Aug 31, 2006 at 3:59 pm

Aug 31, 2006 at 4:01 pm

Aug 31, 2006 at 5:25 pm
Straight up trash from any angle. There is nothing unique about these shoes.
Aug 31, 2006 at 6:35 pm

Aug 31, 2006 at 7:48 pm
da heel is hot, everything else is straight garbage, wade is teh hottest player in the league right now, but damn, if he cant ccome up wit a better shoe…
Aug 31, 2006 at 8:18 pm
I think they hot i dont know what you guys are talkin about.
Aug 31, 2006 at 8:34 pm
I think they’re really nice. Some people just refuse to like anything that doesn’t have a swoosh or jumpman on them. I bet these people don’t know who ownes Converse either…
Aug 31, 2006 at 9:09 pm
those shoes r wack..the best thing about them is dwayne wade..he shoulda went with a different company..cuz converse aint workin u kno…
Aug 31, 2006 at 11:52 pm
To tell you the truth, every basketball player out there is trying to come out with a shoe annualy just like Jordan. But let me be the first to say that it isn’t going to happen. Michael Jordan already started the annual pairs back in ‘85 and is still today. And his shoes look like what people wanna buy and what goes with your outfit. You can look fly and casual in the club or in school (Like Me), or you can get in a game of Basketball. But these shoes no offense because i have mad luv and respect for D-Wade, but these look like basketball shoes and shoes that he would look right playing in. These aren’t those kind of shoes like Jordan & Air Force Ones — sorry.

Don’t do Converse, except Ol School Chucks
Sep 1, 2006 at 1:11 am
These ARE NOT the Wade II. they are called the wade 1.3. the .3 reffering to wades number and the fact that they are a variation on the wade I. these shoes are supposed to come out in November sometime. where as the wade II will come out in febuary around the all star break. Same time the kobe II will release. All of this info comes from the other brands forum on niketalk.
Sep 1, 2006 at 2:36 am
the wade I’s look wayy better.
Sep 1, 2006 at 5:31 am
These shoes look grat whether the r Wade II or Wade I.3
I don’t care.All I know is that GREECE kicked your prestigious
US ass.Flash was unable to drive to the hoop. Idon’t know what you say but if you don’t grab your BIG GUYS, “there’s no chance of winning”
Sep 1, 2006 at 7:52 am
I know Cons can do better than this!
I mean this is the same company that makes Chucks and they have stood the test of time and not to mention dope kicks for Larry Johnson(LJ)(Grandma Ma) and Kevin Johnson(do the knowledge shorties)I really am relieved that these are not the D Wade 2.Cons has to step it up in terms of design for DWayne since DWayne has stepped his game up TREMENDOUSLY on the court.
Sep 1, 2006 at 8:51 am
Is it just me or the newest model b-ball kicks for the last 6 years have been kind of beat. im not talking about exclusive retro jordans or variations of the AF1’s or Dunk. im talking new model sneakers, everything dropped has jus looked horrible. I think the newest basketball sneakers i have are the black/c.blue melo’s 5.5 and even those are based on retro models. everybody needs to stop sacrificing style for technology because u gotta find a balance. Converse needs to step up to Dwayne Wades level cuz these sneakers are beneath him
Sep 1, 2006 at 10:14 am
DWade is a superstar now! When’s your contract up with Converse, soon Nike will be calling, and then I’ll purchase a pair.
Sep 1, 2006 at 11:24 am
them joints is killin the first one
Sep 1, 2006 at 12:06 pm
The shoe is ugly and that USA team is wack thats why they are playing for the bronz once again
Sep 1, 2006 at 12:12 pm
if i had an extra set of hands i would give these shoes two thumbs down. converse can do better for their main player and the new face for converse. how do converse expect to sell when their shoes are hideous, there is nothing unique about these shoes. i think wade should switch to nike since they own converse anyway
Sep 1, 2006 at 1:16 pm
Is it Juz me or Do they kinda resemble the Kobe Zooms from Last yuur? I dont think its me….
Sep 1, 2006 at 1:28 pm
those are uglier then his first ones
Sep 1, 2006 at 2:31 pm
Nike owns Cons.
Sep 1, 2006 at 2:33 pm
What surprised me is that converse went all out on this show, usually their shoes are just plain crap. and i admire how they make it look like no other shoe.
Sep 1, 2006 at 4:35 pm
let me design the next shoe, this is why we see retro’s all day because the new shoes are positivly UGLY!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sep 1, 2006 at 6:16 pm
Butt azz ugly ! What do u expect from converse ?
Sep 2, 2006 at 9:03 am
yeah nike owns converse they bought them out for $305 million in 03′
Sep 2, 2006 at 9:06 am
A wade i am getting ur shoes right now today cuz i showed ma mama and she asked did i want them i am only getting them becuase i play ball just like u and i am #3 and i was MVP for AAU so it sdhows i mean i still got work to do cuz everybody aint perfect but yo shoes are cold man!!! and i am a female and i average 20-21 point a game in just aau ball but i will get to ur level sometime… and ma team is called the Michigan Heat and u Miami Heat but we wear white & red!!! but its all godd iight
Sep 2, 2006 at 10:32 am
The same person that designed all your precious Jordans designed these, you idiots.
Sep 2, 2006 at 11:12 am

Sep 2, 2006 at 11:02 pm

Sep 3, 2006 at 1:35 pm
No girls talent will ever about to D-Wade, that whole statement/paragraph was rediculous.

Sep 4, 2006 at 12:52 pm
dawayne wade needs a slap for makin these ugly ass sneakers…and there converse’s theres noway
Sep 4, 2006 at 3:03 pm
For the record…….DWayne nor any other Ball player for that matter “makes” sneakers let alone designs them.The only thing the players do is give the designers their seal of approval so you can say that the player may have bad taste in sneakers(in this case it’s painfully obvious),but the blame for a terrible looking sneaker goes on the shoulders of the designers.I’m seeing all over the message boards of nicekicks.com people saying that a particular ball player needs to stop “making shoes” when in fact players don’t make shoes!
Sep 6, 2006 at 3:26 pm
man d wade is nice as a mug but his shoes is uglyz…..man he should have signed wit jordan or nike……he would be selling a whole lot more like melo and lebron……..but o well ill stick to Jayz………..

I find the Wades to be the most comfortable shoes I’ve purchased. If you’re a real basketball player you shouldn’t really care about the looks of the shoes. Flash your doing great and you’re really inspirational. Thanks.

Ofcourse the Man & the MVP of the Finals ‘06…I was waiting for these shoe to come out…For me, they are great & looks comfortable…I like the toe of the shoe it resembles the Wade1 with its concept…I hope they (converse) put some technology on these shoes to help D-WADE with his plays on the court…Personally I like this pair of D-Wades…I will get them as soon as they are available in the market. Congratulations CONVERSE!!! You guys did it again!!!
