ADIDAS TS ACE COMMANDER


Here’s one from left field. When you think of Adidas & their range of signature series basketball shoes, you would be forgiven for automatically thinking; Dwight Howard, Derrick Rose, Kevin Garnett... Bigsneakz Australia thought it was time to introduce you to something rarely heard of Down Under... A basketball shoe for chicks with serious game! The ADIDAS TS ACE COMMANDER – designed for and in conjunction with Candace Parker of the L.A. Sparks WNBA team.



The TS Ace Commander is Parker’s first signature shoe, so the team at Adidas worked closely with her to ensure each element of the shoe design represented her personality and in game requirements.


The white/purple/gold colour way is obviously reppin’ the Sparks team colours. These sweet pair of sneakz incorporates Adidas’ CLIMACOOL technology, allowing the foot to breathe easier during the game. A new style internal/external mid strap provides extra foot support so you can cross your opponent over & adiPRENE insert aids forefoot propulsion and efficiency, leaving your defender in a dust cloud like Wile. E Coyote screaming ‘HELP!’


As we hinted at above, women’s basketball shoes are almost unheard of, particularly here in Australia. What’s even more impressive, and high five’s all round to the team at Adidas, is that they have designed a women’s basketball shoe that will actually appeal to women. The look great, they colours work, THEY”RE LIGHT WEIGHT (approx 370 grams) and are simply awesome!
