I don't usually agree to statements like this but those up there are robbing me of hope

Agree there have been tons of garbage CWs recently, but I really liked the silver/volts from this year especially with black laces, maybe I'm in the minority

Silver volts were definitely nice. I'm not sure what was off on the concords other than the obvious, checker board carbon fiber :x... Maybe matte black woulda been dope but I'm not sure. I like em a little though, I woulda copped for a bill
 
 
 
RIP Foamposite
1997-2013
Died so young, it's a shame :'(
It died way sooner than that. When foams stopped being black, blue, and white.
bcuz Penny only played in orlando

In Penny foamposite ones, yes. I don't recall the penny foams being retroed when he played for the Suns, Knicks, or Heat. When you think of Penny foams, you think of ONE team, the Orlando Magic. I guess you fall for Nike's okey doke of these tribute shoes that expands colors on shoes, therefore the shoe losing it's original meaning.

So red pros weren't nice? Red metallics? Eggplants? Pines? Pewters? Coppers?

Graphics are killing them
No, I thought red pros were wack. Red metallics, Eggplants, Pewters were ok. Pines were cheap, and coppers were a gimmick with that dirty penny ********. But you can spend your money however you like, it was just my opinion.

Nah there were some nice colors last year
I'll give you the Purple metallics as far as recent releases, fine. But that's about it.
Wouldn't my man's post already imply that he most likely didn't feel any of the pairs that you guys are mentioning?

Thank you for having sense and perspective. Some dudes go to the wall for shoes man. I looked at the foam in it's original context. 
 
I wasn't an Orlando fan so blue foams don't appeal to me so yeah I'm glad Nike drops shoes in black or red or white bcuz those are my fav colors out of about 60prs of shoes I own 5prs of shoes with blue in them so okey dokey or not I'll buy what I like regardless of team
 
What I don't get is peeps saying what will "rescue" foams is:
A) Solid CWs
B) Blk/Wht/Blu CWs

If that's the case, why are the Concord foams still sitting on sale everywhere? That tells me that customers are either over traditional foam styles and *want* the crazier graphics and flashy CWs, or maybe aside from stuff like the suedeposites they're over foams completely. Then again, a price point 50% higher than retro Js probably doesn't help sell them, either.

They ****ed up by making the eyestay area lighter than the foam. That ruins an otherwise traditional colorway and has almost never worked in terms of popularity.

He said when they stopped being black, blue and white? How does red metallics and the other I listed fit into those color ranges?

Exactly, they don't. Therefore it wouldn't be hard to assume that he isn't a fan of any of the pairs you listed since they aren't Royals.

After looking at the elephant print foams they just shouldn't exist
I tried to like em and invision volt, black or sky blue soles but that elephant print is just bad
 
Bet those elephant print foams sell out on release day. I know it's the "thing" to hate anything new or different but the execution on those are well constructed.
 
Well constructed?

The color blocking, contrasting pattern of design, even the hue of the colors, all well executed. If the shoe was given a boutique collab in its marketing it would change a lot of minds in here. Word to supreme foams.

because they did them wrong.. they needed a clear white sole with the black carbon fiber instead.
