9.8 ounces. it's a cup of melted chocolate, a bottle of windex or adidas' new "adizero crazy light," the lightest basketball shoe ever made.

set for public release june 3, they'll set you back $130 and will be available in four colors. an additional six colors will roll out this fall.

several NBA players have already tried out the shoe, which, unlike APL's concept 1 spring-loaded sneakers, will not be banned from the league due to providing unfair competitive advantage.

hmmm. next time I'm playing basketball (which will be...never), I'll imagine wearing a cup of melted chocolate on each foot.
