Where have you seen them? (Im being serious not asking in a sarcastic manner
) I wonder what they were doing in them because my wheats are my second most worn shoes in rotation but they still look great and I'm rough on shoes plus I wear them to the gym, bump em in to stuff and get them really dirty but a toothbrush, hot water and some dawn liquid soap leaves em looking brand new... I hate calling them suede but I have no idea what they're actually made of, its not nubuck because nubuck peels and gets smooth spots and it damn sure aint suede. Whatever it is, its pretty damn durable, maybe the blacks end up looking like crap from wear.

In person on foot and on display. Display pairs of wheats are faded and dirty.
The black pairs on foot have looked really ashy.
I'm just calling it how I see it.
Like this doesn't appeal to me at all but I do admit that the flash makes it worse

Foams are supposed to be like tanks. Can be worn in any weather without worry of ruining them.
Hate that Nike is using good colorways on the suedeposites.
We could have had a new all black foam or a grey foamposite but those colorways are wasted (IMO) on the suedeposites.

Okay and you believe that using nail polish remover will remove nubuck/suede and leave a smooth "Foam" surface beneath?
Not the same thing

You sir are correct but you can use nail polish remover on shoes to remove paint and gloss as well on paint so lets just pretend they are the same for now.
