The Shaqnosis' are ugly as hell . . . could never be pulled off . . . If they weren't Reeboks they would be laughed at . . .

The other joints are nice tho . . .

i think you're mistaken. if they were nikes and you had said nike i might agree. but reebok hasn't been poppin for years (w/ the urban, fashion or hip hop crowd). that they are reeboks isn't a factor. the fact that they are shaq's signature model in close to og form (w/ dunk man, no zigzag or hexaride sole, etc) w/ the big man back is.

I'm sure some heads that were around when they came out and have been waiting on these for years are true, true fans and legit wanted these back . . .

But Reebok is the flavor of the month right now because dudes slept on the Question and OG Kamikazes so dudes are tryna make up for missing those releases . . . that's just my opinion if the Shaqnosis' sell out quick . . . but I'm sure you're right and there are legit fans of these shoes . . . 

It's just gonna be weird seeing and hearing people say "The prices on the Shaq's are crazy" or "Those Shaq's sold out" . . . when up to even 6 months ago, the term "Shaq" as it related to athletic footwear instantly brought up the connotation of the K-Mart line

No.
 
out of all the people spotted with that pyrex, it's safe to say that Hov is probably

the only one that has used pyrex for anything other than baking cupcakes.. or is crack after his time?
 
Cant believe ppl giving Swizz props for doing what anyone of us would have done if we were put in that job at reebok.. would be shocked if they actually are paying him for his "creativeness".. not hating just think its obvious reebok had some gems in the past and retroing them would pay out

Yo what exactly is Swizz role at Reebok? I see that he is involved with all these crazy retros. I know they endorsed him but did they actually hire him on at the company marketing

Wear the shoes, show them off to the public and kids. Have his wife wear them.....these shoes sell themselves
 
Yea Swizzy runs Reebok...he promised not to release his kamikazes anymore in exchange for a full-time job.

I've been saying this for a while but it's easier to explain the actions of a madman than it is to explain Reebok's marketing. Giving HOV his own 'S.Carter' line then having him sport Nike/JB product on the regular was the worst though, what genius at Reebok signed him to that contract?
