Power Force: Controversial Posters

With me being the Lead Designer for Power Force, I am aiming to compete with the "big dogs"....these posters address that.  The bottom poster is the most intriguing to me because the two will be made of similar materials but which would you chose to wear?  If it's Nike, would you chose it because it's a bigger brand?  But what if a premiere athlete like Kobe Bryant wore the Power Force shoe...would that persuade you to want them more?  These are all interesting questions that we wanted answered.  But my question to you is which style to you think is better?
