Apparently slows down the aging process?Why do people saran wrap shoes?
Idk, my Concords are DS and they already yellowing around the traction pods. My cousin saran wrapped his and there is not a
sign of anything. So maybe it is legit.

Actually, it does nothing but hurt the shoe over time.
I remember someone did it to a pair of 99 Cement IV's and they unwrapped them 4-5 years later to wear them and they broke apart.

Saran wrapping a shoe = no air to circulate it
no air = no breatheability (spelling?)
no breatheability = drying out
drying out = shoe crumbling to pieces
Sorta makes sense, right?
Just my personal assumption, not basing this off experience at all. That is because I do not saran wrap my shoes.

Correct.
I think stores do it so they don't get dirty when people touch them, I would rather a shoe get dirty where I could clean it than the sole fall apart.

these will still fly. May not be good money for a reseller, but im sure they'll sell out like lightning starting with JJ, then you'll hear the crybabies (noobs and vets alike). gonna be nice and not call out any nt vet names but you guys know who you are...I c u guys in every thread bringing in tears. then you get a little good useful info like fit and quality, how they break in over time, ect.... then millions of restock q's and my order shipped hahaha comments and so on and so forth. Buuuutttttt its better than cable!

good assumption. This is why the longest I keep a clear bottom sole on ice is a year before I bring em out. I usually give my sneakers away after I wear them a bit but I'm gonna start keeping some of the clear bottom sneakers to dye different. My friends bro dyes his foam soles brand new but I don't have the balls for that yet.

I think these the only foams to come out in Feb son. Pretty sure the ASG foams woulda been announced by now. The Area 72 pack has already been announced, the Brons KD and Kobe ASGs have been announced so why wait on the Foams at this point and look how close we are to ASG Weekend. If im wrong cool I'd rather it be something better than these anyway to come out. I also believe the Barkley Posite is the ASG foam tho these just come out a week or 2 prior if im not mistaken
