That message and signature are a clown show :lol:

Hmmm. They go about it in a strange, seemingly backward way, then. They’ve released Flight 89s up the wazoo in the past five years or whatever. And released them as mostly trash in terms of colorways and materials. The model sells OK here and there, it seems, but rarely like gangbusters. It’s...

I guess this is true in many ways but as I’ve said before, I don’t get why it can’t be both. Drop all the silly collabs you want but not at the expense of doing justice to the classic colorways.

That wasn’t the joke. See the “Carolina” 9 thread :lol:

Better brace yourself for dressing like that. Everyone knows you can’t wear those shoes with UNC shorts because the blues aren’t an exact match. @1978S :rofl:

I will never understand that phenomenon :rofl:

That EP :sick::smh::rofl::stoneface:

Now there’s a thought that’s never crossed my mind once :lol:

Yeah, and it really shouldn't be that difficult. I'm not a designer but I feel like I could take these and make them much better with a few simple modifications to the lines.

Doh, oops. I looked at the above pic quickly and thought it was the Bounds, not the Solo Flights. I was indeed talking about the Bounds :lol:

Considering what JB says about this shoe, I'm at least curious to hold a pair in real life because the more I see pics, the more I question what about this model is so "premium," in the company's words? The only leather on the shoe is the heel-counter piece and the toe piece. The majority of the...

Just can’t get down with that concave curve on the midsole. These look like a Luka shoe. That’s OK in general but not for the flagship.

No no, the all black durabuck pair with the white swoosh.

Meh

The black/white colorway was my game shoe for my 10th grade season.

Toes looking nearly unslanted and flat again :smh: Crazy how easy it is I’m finding it to pass on these. I thought JB was on a decent track with the shape and cut of XI lows the past few years. But somehow this pair seems to have almost regressed.

Those are horrendous, too :rofl:

:lol: What I hate about these renders is that they connect the heel-counter piece, midsole and toe piece in a way that makes the shoe look clunky as hell. Makes them look like a little kid’s saddle shoe or something.

You’re making it worse with each one :lol:

I don't know, but there have been plenty of players who wore them going back to last year, plus college players, plus the sneaker sites posting about them, etc etc. Plus you have all the social media accounts tracking sneakers, and what sneakers players are spotted playing in ... I would think...
