Look like some old Adidas. It's unclear to me whether they are blue stripe or black.

I thought the same thing as JEC, figuring they were some of the old Atlanta shoes (which are great shoes) but then I noticed they actually have four stripes not 3 and they are spaced wrong for Adidas shoes. My guess would be Chinese knockoffs. If they are Lai Ning (spelling?) they are decent shoes for the money. I say try them out if the bidding does not go over about $30-40 but any more than that just get some good Adidas like the Dart'. Of course you could always just pick up some of the newer style Lai Ning shoes. I have heard really good things and you can get them for around $50US.

Good luck!

I didn't look at the larger figure. I agree with CvilleFencer, do not pay more than $40 or so.

The shoes got 4 stripes.

They are not Adidas, but the first edition of the BG chinese shoes, if I'm not mistaken.
They sold brand new for $55.
