Evan Turner Debuts Li-Ning Conquer on China Tour

Evan Turner Debuts Li-Ning Conquer

A couple of weeks ago, we learned of Evan Turner’s signing with Chinese sportswear brand Li-Ning. In detail, the Philadelphia 76ers rookie will receive his own Li-Ning signature sneaker and is expected to wear it during the 2010-2011 NBA season. With that said, Evan Turner recently debuted a new Li-Ning basketball model dubbed the Conquer on his China tour. The Conquer is the first sneaker shown from Li-Ning’s new ‘Defend & Conquer’ campaign, and Turner will be the lead endorser of this new collection. Supposedly, the former Ohio State player will wear the sneaker shown above during ‘Home’ games, while a Black/Red pair will be provided for ‘Away’ games (shown below).

As for the Conquer’s characteristics, it contains a primarily patent leather-textured base with a zip-up construction over the midfoot/lacing panel. Evan Turner’s number 12 appears on the collar section and the Li-Ning logo is located on the side panels in grey. What are your preliminary thoughts on the Li-Ning Conquer?

    • Everton

      lol my thoughts precisely. makes it look good though.

      would NEVER cop either way

    • JBAM19

      Exactly what i was thinkin as Im lookin at both my flightposite II's although i do like those black and white ones if nike came out with flightposite II's in a black white pair id go crazy

    • lakers 2011 champs

      the white n black ones reminded me of them too!

      • juliojones8

        jump on the band wagon

  • datRueASIAN

    there not bad for a chinese brand…. better than peak.

  • khordkutta

    1/2 Alien stomper, 1/2 protege, %100 booty

  • horhay

    too shiny…why couldnt they use regular leather.

  • LOSITE

    Looks like they took the FP II and added a bunch of bells and whistles….not a good look smh

    • Psquizzle

      true, except the bells and whistles part. just looks like a bunch of patent leather.

      pass.

  • Lou Kang

    not bad it does look like the FPII but its a step forward i like the fact that evan turner took a chance on them though, who knows what might happen if there designs keep progressing and he blows up.

  • gonzo4of9

    functionality look test= A+
    freshness look test= F-

  • kareja

    looks good to me but i just hate that damn patent leather

  • Big Dre

    I hope they are paying him a ton of money. I can't beleive he signed off on the design of these shoes. Not the best look. It just goes to show that if some people are paid enough they will wear anyhting. He should have looked at Jose Calderons shoes. The simpler the better.

  • bigdro

    These shoes are a hot mess. My word! I'd get 'em and hide 'em in the back of my closet. Better yet I put them on the porch on Hallowe'en night to scare the heck outta kids.

  • Rich

    wheres the nike sign?

  • Winse

    Li Nings are usually nice but these are terrible!

  • dr. orthotic

    is it just me or do they kinda look like some Flightposites?……the poor man's version

  • Asian dude

    looks plasticky and stiff. Maybe tone down on the shine.
