Does this concept not speak to the fact that the players from the 80's and 90's were more popular and marketable? It also speaks to the fact that the current shoe designs are trash. That within itself should make you not want these shoes, it insults our intelligence as customers I feel.

nostalgia is a STRONG selling weapon.

imagine nike selling NO retros whatsoever...they would've been no worse for wear then current reebok or current adidas.

Truth. If Nike didn't have retro's on lock, they wouldn't be this huge

The price is definitely high but you gotta expect that being a hybrid shoe with Foamposite materia.

Shoe looks impressive, but the price is cringe worthy

post #184 of 4476

these are pretty dope to me minus the heel, price is steep but so is every price these days

Instead of coming up with ridiculous sneakers @ even more ridiculous prices. Nike should manufacture more retros so they are easier to attain. These aren't even a consideration for purchase.

Honestly I like the 180 air set up ( which is one of the reasons why I like the lebron 9 and penny 5) but the rest is garbage

The jeweled swoosh looks forced on, that cb logo is too big, and too much nubuck and not enough foam. If they gonna charge $235+tax (I live in NYC sick.gif ) at least put some more foam on the shoe.

And the design on the foam material looks uninspired. Reminds me of the pureposite mean.gif

These are good, especially with the CB 94 upper. $235 is overpriced considering Lebron IVs retailed at $150 and were the premier Posites just a few years ago. That's over a 50% increase in price!

The All Star game is in the winter (February) and these shoes are said to be releasing this "Spring 2013" which = has nothing to do with the ASG and this All Star game is not "Galaxy" themed mean.gif

That sole tho smokin.gif. I'm such a Barkley fan and I'm real tempted. I have to see the other colors but that glow in the dark outsole is so tough.

The $235 price tag is not a real big deal to me really because I'm not one of those people who be trying to invest stock into one style of Nike shoe and get every single pair that comes out. So I know these will be the "ONLY" pair I will go for the same way I did with the Nike Hyperposites which had a pricey tag of $225 I only bought the Fireberry colorway because that was the only pair I really wanted. Bottom line spending $235 one time for 1 pair/colorway of these Barkley Posites that you really want isn't really that bad now if you one of those people who try to get like EVERY colorway and buy like 5 different pair spending around $1175 before taxes then I can feel your heartache frown.gif but let's be serious the price tag isn't really that mind blowing especially considering how much sought after shoes go for these days

It may be true but the ASG is in Houston(tribute to his playing days) so it could be a very limited release during AS weekend then come Spring time they'll be a GR. Ppl go crazy for them because they couldn't get them during the first run or didn't want to pay exorbitant amounts on the resale. Instant sell out. Same song different story with how Nike is doing things.

But I thought the theme for the ASG this year was suppose to be camo, based on how the Foamposite Ones look and there February release date and if you ask me this Barkley Posite colorway looks more like a Phoenix Suns colorway for when he played for the Suns, with the all that black & purple in it than a Houston Rocket colorway

i understand that but this colorway many ppl will associate with the Galaxy theme more so you know how that will go. tired.gif I'm sure there will be a Houston colorway and many more in the works.
post #202 of 4476
looknin forward to more colorways
post #203 of 4476
Yeah I got you. I honestly would prefer to see a Galaxy Theme again this ASG instead of a Camo Theme sick.gif about Houston's Military mean.gif
