Hey ive been practicing freestyle footbag for about a year now and i figured its time to get me some lavers. Just the original ones are hard to get where i live and adidas have started making new versions, http://www.jdsports.co.uk/product/adidas-originals-rl-vintage-lo/44044/ So my quesion is should i go to ebay and try to find the originals or are these just the same????

To elaborate a little. The big difference is the toe. The Vintage looks to have a rubber toe instead of the mesh that makes the original Rod Laver such a nice choice for footbag. The rubber toe will be bouncy and it's rounded so it will cause more roll off when you do stall.
