They don't need 15 designers or aritsts trying to think up of a way to make a TOTAL ORANGE COLORWAY... Just use the infrared and citron as your core base and work from there. It's simple but to save ones job or to even have jobs, they complicate the hell out of things to accomplish something different. Some of these PSs are looking decent. Med. balls have too much brown for my liking. You pretty much can't compete with the OG model color blocking so you would have to go with a white tongue, outrigger, and strap. And that would mess the look of the SC II. So some shoes are just better off with their own colorways. I've literally spent dozens of hours in PS trying to come up with something decent. It's not really happening. The OG setup are those colors because they were likely chosen as the best at that time.. They need to be a one time wonder with a lot of these retros and not force anything. Any PS that I have done looks forced.. TEAM A I R T R A I N E R A I R T R A I N E R Team Vintage Heat

They need to be a one time wonder with a lot of these retros and not force anything. Any PS that I have done looks forced.. I see where you are coming from. The reason that most of the colorways released flopped is because they chose DULL modern colors. I feel that they should have chosen a wider spectrum of colors to choose from. The reason that most retros flop is because Nike slaps the same colors on all of their models while totally neglecting their past. Each colorway should have their own story to tell. My colorways all draw from Nike's past, colorways that have stood the test of time and have had proven themselves to be classics. I definitely see what you're saying about the Medicine Balls. too much white on the shoe wont work.You cant perfectly replicate every colorway on every shoe, so you have to adapt. Sometime it pays off, some time it fails. But at least you have a better chance of making a sell to the newer generation. Btw last colorway for the night, Clorophyls

Normally you have to go a half size up in trainers with the straps, or they'll rub your pinky toe and might be tight. These aren't as narrow in the toe area. The QS seems to be a little narrower than the GS versions. And I don't do colorful jeans and shiny kicks, my shoe game is Penny in ninety-six - Skyzoo

The QS seems to be a little narrower than the GS versions. I have the QS's and GR's and find it to be the opposite. I thought I needed to go up a half size for the GR (don't have these in Canada so I guessed) and they fit great, a little roomy but not too bad (ie heel is locked down without the laces done up). When the QS's dropped, I panicked and got what I could and ended up getting a size 10 in the Infrared's thinking I could stretch them out if needed. Turns out they fit great and have no pinky toe rub for me. If I had to do it all over again, I would have gone with my regular size (10) for the GR's. WTB: Jordan 3 Black Cats in a 9.5 or 10. Lebron 8 Cool Greys and Chinas in a 10, Lebron 9 Free Gums and Miami Nights in 10.5 or 11. PM if you're selling!!!

If you're like me, at least one pair of those will be sold down the road when you're in a pinch for some cash. Quadrupled up on the Infra 90's last summer, only to sell 2 pairs later.
