Vince Carter Shoes

Buy Vince Carter Shoes Online

While it’s always best to try athletic shoes on before buying, online shopping tends to be simpler and often less expensive, and you can usually do an exchange easily, should there be a size or comfort problem. The shoes are on their fifth generation, although the original signature Vince Carter Nike basketball shoes can be found on eBay.

Nike Shox VC III

The third generation of the Vince Carter shoes line has a sleek modern look in intense white with silver and deep blue accents. However, what makes this Nike basketball shoe desirable is its use of state-of-the-art technology to create the ultimate in comfort and performance. The shoes work as hard as you do and provide the top in stability and traction, allowing for quick turns and tight moves. Nike’s famous Shox cushioning system guarantees you’ll be at your best throughout the game. Also available in black with gray accents.

Nike Shox VC IV

This fourth shoe inspired by Vince Carter does without the signature Shox columns that run the full length of the shoe, instead combining six Shox columns with a Zoom Air unit under the forefoot. Footwear Design Director of Nike Basketball Tracy Teague says: “With the VC IV, we’ve combined a 6-column Shox system with forefoot Zoom Air to provide superior heel to toe transition to help translate Vince’s energy into smooth, explosive elevation…we’ve tried to bring another side of Vince into the overall design execution.” Fans of the shoe claim the traction is excellent and that they definitely jump higher than in other shoes. Colors are white with silver accent or black with red accents.

Nike Shox VC V Vince Carter Youth Basketball Shoes

Kids wanting to imitate basketball’s high flyer need a solid shoe that supports immature ankles and shins. The rich full-grain and synthetic leather upper is strong and durable, while the mid-foot support saddle sports an elastic band for enhanced lockdown and lateral stability. A TPU heel counter provides additional heel lockdown. The strong and flexible midsole provides comfort and cushioning, while the six-column Shox system absorbs shock. The Forefoot Zoom Air unit allows for superb transition and responsiveness, while the solid rubber outsole and mid-foot TPU give traction and stability. The design is very bold in striking black and white with a dark red sole. The average price is $34.99, which is good news for parents.

Limited Edition Shoes

Many Nike basketball shoes are released only as limited editions, and Vince Carter shoes are no exception. The VC Shox III 3 2003 NBA All Star Game Edition shoe, in eye-grabbing electric blue with striking red and white accents are very rare and, if found on eBay, can cost considerably more than their original retail price of $89.99. The very popular Nike VC Shox III in dazzling white and red with a touch of black are hugely desirable and fans have put up requests in case anyone has an extra pair. The very rare Nike Air Vince Carter VC3 Toronto, snazzy in white and purple, which was only sold in Toronto as an extremely limited edition is highly desirable, as are the retro-looking Nike Shox VC 5 shoes in blue, yellow and white. Such shoes are fun to have, but you should consider their purpose before hunting them down. If you’re planning to buy basketball shoes for the sake of playing basketball, a collector’s item shoe is not ideal, because it will lose its value after wearing. If you’re interested in becoming a serious collector, you should do some research before starting. Even limited edition memorabilia does not necessarily grow in value over the years. Ultimately, when buying shoes, you should just look for what you love and will get the best wear from and then wear them with pride and joy till they’re done.
