Personally, I wore out three Nike Court Ballistec 3.3 and one Adidas Barricade 6. I am on my second Barricade 6s and have a backup Barricade 6 I found on the bargain rack. I spent $320 this year in all.

BUt yes Each one of my size 10s is 1lbs each. & your barricades at a ounce more than 1 lbs for the pair. Am i correct?
