I wanted them too, but just couldn't pony up $350 for a "new release". I think the Team WoW guys deserve to make money for whatever set up they have, I just couldn't do it. It's too much to pay for kicks that have a limited resale value if I decided not to wear, and even then only to a select group of collectors, many of whom already copped. All IMO, YMMV.

This...all of this right here. Thanks for typing it for me! :lol:
 
Looks like a team wade shoe. Can't wait to see the good samples that won't release while we are stuck with the fufu stuff

If the WoW4 doesn't differ much from those sweatsuits...I'm not real keen on them. They def seem like a Team shoe. The 808, All City, and Fissure models all have more "signature shoe" design cues than these. Maybe CW's in differing materials will look better but so far I'm not very enthusiastic.

Yep my thoughts exactly. My WoW time is coming to an end. These are going to be mesh and synthetic materials. Not many raw material models so I will be basically moving on to all runners.

There are a few loyal Wade guys on IG at the moment who commented on Eric Miller's and D Wades peeks of them all like "yes! I NEED NOW!" Now...I'm definitely a loyal Wade fan between the jersey's (about 20 different iterations) and even his Jordan Fly Wade models...but come on folks let's be honest about a few things here. That teal 4 preview pic does NOT hold a candle to say even the 305 Drips this year. Very basic design and color blocking on this CW. Plus if the synthetic materials info is true I feel they are abandoning one of the MAIN quality points that separates them from everyone else.

Yeah, it's just the fanboys saying "YES" right now. That CW does nothing for me. And it looks like just a mash up of design elements from the 2.5's and 3's and maybe even the 2.0's. Will have to see more pictures and materials before I decide anything. 2.0's still my hands down favorite, and one of my favorite all time silos.

Yeah I forgot to mention that as well...I will reserve 100% judgement on the 4 till some different pics/CW's/and non sweatsuit models are released.

Yeah, if they break away from raw materials I will only be buying older models.
 
Do WoW's feel really stiff?  I look at the midsole and it's kinda thick.

Nope, probably on the whole some of the most comfortable shoes I own. Break the REAL leather in and you're good to go. Midsoles feel no different than any other company IMO.

It is thick but not stiff. It is very comfortable, the only trade off is lower court feel.
The only stiff part is the upper material because it is leather, few times playing with it and stiffness gone.
 
A little late but here's the pics of my latest acquisition.  Paid for around 80 for these and the quality is impressive.
