Derrick Rose is currently blazing a rehab trail back to his spot as Bulls leader. And using the adidas Rose 773 to get the job done. You saw a glimpse or two of the 773 in D-Rose’s #TheReturn trailer and today we have some official stills to examine. The 773 designation shouts to Derrick’s hometown neighborhood area code and works in some past Rose signature shoe flavor. There’s a top down satellite view of his Englewood neighborhood to compliment the SPRINTWEB toe. Rose 773′s hardware is inspired by the Rose 2.5, taking that shoe’s outsole and triangular memory foam collar support. The SPRINTFRAME chassis gets to play, too. From there, cues like Rose’s name stamped on the tongue and lateral heel, jersey number 1 on the toe box, and 3-Stripes branding on the rear wrap up the shoe’s design message. The adidas Rose 773 is available now at Foot Locker, Eastbay and at adidas.com. Keep an eye on the adidas Basketball Facebook page and @adidasHoops Twitter handle for breaking content.
i’m loving the “slideshow-box” thingamajig..
just a question though.. is the 773 the 1st half shoe?? it kinda sucks that he won’t be playing the first half and all but is it??
773 is the Summer/early Fall shoe. It’s another DRose SKU. It was SUPPOSED to be his Olympics shoe, and that Olympic 773 is pretty so it’s unfortunate events didn’t pan out how they could have. There’s an adidas Rose 3 coming out for first half though, that’s the main sig shoe for the season…
