Imagine the comfort if they put React or some version of ZoomX foam, without changing the look, into 11s...

Agreed; mine fit perfect. It takes some time to break-in the midsole, but no real complaints. Actually like the fit much better than the '16 space jams/black concord PEs; those always felt too bulky and clunky to me. Looked great, but never enjoyed wearing them and recently got rid of them.

I don't know...look at some of these vintage images; swoosh doesn't look like anything special....largely the same as we're seeing for this release, no? https://www.bing.com/images/search?q=air+180+vintage&form=HDRSC3&first=1

Thanks for pulling those pics. Seems like an important and super easy detail if they're trying to match OG. Personally think the grey is better. So is Nike confused over what was actually OG, or were they grey and Nike just wants to make these less than 100% to make sure they have something...

Thanks! Hard to tell...are the OG wings white?

I'm not a 180 expert, but the shape is looking pretty good on these. Thoughts? Wish this was the shock drop. 5/24...a Friday launch....hmm....I'm good with that.

It's a damn shame they don't make all 4s as comfortable as the SBs. I'd replace all of my 4s with the same colorway to get that comfort, or even better use modern super foams (without changing the look)...call it remastered reimagined retro protro ultra plus premium campaign ;-).

Probably since they resurrected the line whatever number of years ago.

I'd like to see comparisons with the OG. Comparing to the '06 and '12 seems pointless.

Do we know if waterproofing spray helps to avoid oxidation / yellowing, or does it make 8t worse?

Yo U NEED to upgrade!

That was always my understanding, but now when I pull up OG/Vintage pics where the wings haven't yellowed, they do look white. There's only an apparent contrast b/c the leather is not white, but off-white. For this release the blue in most pics is way darker than reality; in hand, without...

Interesting how the military black and even the What The 4s have grey wings, despite the OGs were actually/apparently white. When did military blues become associated with grey wings? Not true to the OG retros from '06 and '12?

Generally I prefer the Navy, however, now that I have the Military Blue's, despite the hue being way diff, I don't need these Navy SBs and will hold onto my Pine Greens. Green is also our corporate colors so perfect office wear ;-).

On my Oreo 4s I had moved the laces from the middle hole on the wings to the bottom, and a couple of those ripped thru. Now I just use the middle/factory hole and have never had that problem again. But on the bottom eyelets....damn, that seems almost impossible unless they're being tied so...
