You said that the shape on the foamposites has been something that we can't complain about? So you're saying that its the same? Just as good? If you owned older releases you would know that it is something we can and do complain about fairly often. How was I out of context with my response?

Those two shoes are about a year and a half apart. The 09 made in Taiwan and the 10 in China I believe, the shape went downhill that much in a short amount of time. So you can try and get smart with someone else on here, but the shape IS NOT what it should be

So continue complaining see that comes of it. Nike is notorious for these kinds of things. Reality is I had a few OG foams coming up and while I agree the shape isn't the same the biggest issue are the wacky prints.

As for me "trying to get smart" give me a break.

Word to the wise, do not purchase from City Gear if you are unsure about a shoe, no cancellations. I ordered a size 13 in the suede and my homeboy called me up like 10 minutes afterwards to tell me he had my size. I tried to cancel and they told me I could not. I can only send them back and I'd have to pay for the shipping and a $6 restock fee.

that really sucks
 
I think one thing people are fogetting, specifically older sneakerheads, y'all are likely no longer the target market anymore. They targetting this younger crowd and although your opinion matters they are just being outweighed by the fact that y'all buying the shoes is a bonus on top of their target market.

DEF. So true. It makes sense though, if they catered to the old school guys, they would be foolish. Sucks, but it's big business
 
They're a photoshop rendering of a planned colorway. The colors are supposed to be legit, may be a different shade of green/blue (whatever) or different placement but supposed to be something like this

QFT  i'm not into all them crazy prints and super bright colors, there ok, but it almost makes you feel like anytime a solid cw pops up that the fandom has to buy to get there point across, i'm not really sure why the concords flopped
 
Just because a product doesn't sell out in minutes, is the definition of a flop. Also, even though major retailers dumped them at a discount. Nike still made their profit.
 
Flops don't really happen anymore. taking for consideration these shoes don't sell for less than cost. they may not have sold full retail but selling a $10-30 shoe for $150 is still a good profit

well maybe that's the wrong term, hmmm yeah I got nothing, i'm trying to adopt to this new age thinking like ds for not worn instead of no longer in stock, I know nike makes their money upfront on everything that is sold out of a authorized retailer, I figure if it goes on sale it must be a flop since your unable to move product at original retail price, personally I love flops

all these idiotic customs ruined this shoe

I think customs should be what they are just customs, no diff from nikeid, though some go way outside the norm like them ugly AF spur foams, the problem is that all these crazy customs is influencing to be more than just the 1of1 that they should stay as
