From the VP of Sales at Brute about a year ago......"You will not see the Combat Speeds again. The newer styles reflect what the kids want because thats where the market is. The classic styles don't do well. You'll also never see the original adiStars again. Adidas won't approve the stripe thats wide at the bottom."

if this helps. tell your kids the old school styles are cool.

Well I cant stand the new shoes and I will hold onto my speeds forever and when my in-laws got to europe this summer I am hioping they will find a few more pair for me.

I wish they'd release them in this color:

those are ringer universals i believe not combat speeds

Whatever. I'd still like to see Combat Speeds made in this color.

the link to your pic says i need to pay or something qs

All new addidas shoes suck. I like Combat speed in blue and Elite Internationals in black.

Are The Blue With Red At The Ankle And The Yellow Stripes Like Faszayev Used To Wear Combat Speeds? I Have Them And The Teal. But The Blue Ones I'm Scared To Wear Cause Of The Oldschool Value. Wore Them All Through College And The Service. Still Holding Up. Just Stopped Wearing Them In Practice. Only For Tourneys. And Duals. The Only Ones I Don;t Have Are The Red,white And Blue.
