Todays thought..
Walked in mulch and mud and dirt in my knicks unknowiningly.. Not happy.. Forgot that I had them protected. I take them to the sink and wipe off all the dirt. The soles still are blue icy and I'm imagining how my soles would have looked without being protected. #RockingKicksWhileProtected #deadstocklooking #deadlaced #couldreturnthemtofootlockerifiwantedto #otherswillhavesoleaidssoon #solesdiseasefree

IMO DTLR doesn't have a good rep at all whether it is in store or online. They did the same thing to me about a year ago on a pair of Jordans.

Is it worth it to seaglow/sauce soles with drag heel.? I want to do it to my cool grey 11s, but it has some drag heel.

When I bought my Nike Air Max Plus "Hyper Blue" kicks the guy at Champs told me that Champs refused to sell Foamposites because the chain doesn't like the "Foamposite crowd", and I responded asking "How are the "Foamposite crowd" any different than the "Air Jordan crowd"?" to which he really didn't have an answer for me. So I ask you guys what is the difference between the "Foamposite crowd" and "Air Jordan crowd"?

It's a different demographic that champs caters to just like finishline doesn't sell foams and only gets few Kobes.
Finishline is the king of running shoes and champs is directed towards sporting goods.

the Pre-Galaxy Hype Foam crowd is (except in DC and Some Parts of VA) very civil. The "At-The-Time-Galaxies-Released-At-The-Florida-Mall" Foam crowd was full of incredible hulks and thousands of people screaming "We-Want-Foams!!" "We-Want-Foams!!" "We-Want-Foams!!" "We-Want-Foams!!"
The Foam crowd now has settled down much due to the use of Weather Maps, Tampons, And Zebra Prints..
The Jordan Crowd just gets worse and Worse each year.. I may want to make a Columbia 11 Aftermath.. Who Survived? Who Got Trampled? Post All Local News Clips And WSHH In-Store In-Line Battles Here Thread When They Are Finally Released..lol

Thanks guys for the information, repped. I do remember the Foam "Galaxy" craze, but I feel it was on the same barometer as the Air Jordan "Concords", agree?

Just a random heads up
If you have been waiting on picking up some older foams at HOH footaction etc...
This is the 50% off for employee weekend so if you don't cop now it could be gone after this week
Same goes for other shoes as well
Or if you know an employee piggy back that discount NOW
and fyi knick foams are excluded

Galaxies were better in the lack of crime sense but galaxies had a few thousand people at Florida Mall.. that whole parking lot was filled with people chanting like zombies trying to get those shoes and flip them on ebay.. to the point they had to shut down the release at all "SImon Owned" malls.

Go in and see if you toss $20 at an employee if they would hook you up
Each employee is allowed to 50% off up to $1000 of merch this weekend so at least 1 employee might say screw it and look out

ill try at the house of hoops.. they are hard to deal with one of my big time friends (not naming) got the Columbia's for retail from the HOH and had to show them off to me.. I was in envy but every time i try to talk something in.. it never works... they want 75-250 on top to get em.. I would say what i want to say but it would get my post deleted but it is really the only word I can use to describe how those Middleman in referee uniform work..lol

Concords did start it. You are right in that respect.
Foams used to be a more niche shoe and wasn't sold at footlocker like that. I think Footaction used to get foams. Nike used to send a lot of inventory to urban accounts and mom and pop shops.
I remember when nike pulled its allocation from a lot of smaller accounts and sent them to footlocker and family for the copper foam release.
