That's what I saw at my local sporting goods store, I was hesitant to get it, because it was cross country though. I don't know why I didn't at least try a pair on, that was stupid of me. What do you think of the cross country versions of the waffle racers though? These are apparently the newer cross country waffle racers:

They look extremely similar, but I don't wanna spend money on them if they're not like the vii's I have. Maybe I'll wear my vii's to the store and compare how they feel if I have the time.
I love my waffle racer vii's, they're amazing. They run a bit small though (or maybe I just got some fat feet) so I got them a size larger. Usually I wear a size 11 dress shoe, and a size 12 waffle racer fits pretty snug. They don't have much support, but I've gotten used to it. The first 2-3 weeks my feet/shins were pretty sore, because I did most of my stuff in bball shoes, but I haven't had any problems in the past month or so. For speed/plyo/conditioning work I give it two thumbs up, but probably won't play basketball in them.
adarqui:
love the 8's.. going to buy 2 more pair, then eventually get the 9's.
the grip and bounce of the 8's right out of the box is incredible.
i really want these :F
9's:
the 8's are $29 on eastbay right now.. i can get 4 pairs of waffles for the price of one cheap basketball shoe.
jumperer:
any other shoe suggestions? i think its best to get a shoe with harder cushioning, cause you can transfer power better through them than something soft. i have kobe 8's and kd vi's, and i prefer the kd's a lot more. they're nike zoom and are a lot stiffer than kobe lunarlon's and i really feel i can jump higher in them.
