New Wade commercial...note the beginning of the video. Nice to see him and Converse continue to promote MU.
Behind the scenes also...Wade talks about Marquette.

what a sweet commercial- so simple yet makes such a good statement. and what a great man for this university. even if you wanted to forget about Marquette basketball you couldn't because of DWade
I assume this is going to be a national commercial?
So how many people on this board were the Wade doubters back in 2000 & 2001 posting on whatever MU forum was around then haha?
WADE 4s are UGLY.
He really has not been made a above-average caliber of shoe.

True, but they will sell like hotcakes.
I always liked the 1st edition Wade's.
These 2 are my most comfortable sneakers and the first 2 pairs that I purchased...

Then I bought these when they were on sale at Eastbay for like $30

+1 I love Wade, but I hate his shoes.
Just saw the Wade on on TNT before the LeBron Game. Its pretty good. Always love some MU publicity.
That is b ig for Marquette to have this recognition and tied in directly with Wade - wow.
There are a lot of guys who leave school, go on to bigger and better things, and never acknowledge their roots. For example, Derrick Rose was announced at the Bulls game tonight as a guard from Chicago...not Memphis. Not Rose's fault, but I would venture Wade will always be a 6'3" guard from Marquette in the starting lineup. DWade goes out of his way to bring up his roots and respect his journey to the upper echelon of the NBA. It's not only classy but humble in many ways, too. How many NBA stars would agree to do a commercial that brings up their weaknesses? My guess is not many.

They need some cute girl kicks.... those are a lil' too bulky! ;)
Anyone catch the new Wade NBA commercial.
It goes through his life with pictures from birth and it completely skips over MU.

I saw it and thought the exact same thing. It's like he jumped from H.S. to the NBA. I was a little upset by it.
In the last scene where he grabs his shoes, you get a pretty good look at the bottom of the MU converse warm-up pants. I've got a pair myself. The blue/gold trim gives it away.
