Reebok The Rail, Glenn "Big Dog" Robinson signature is back for the first time

The one you are talking about is the Black/White pair, they are the last OG colorway and will be released soon. Them I will cop for sure.
 
I can't believe ya'll like that monstrosity, I never got the South Beach colors. 
 
White/Black shoes get boring after awhile. All the previous Rail retros are sitting on shelves hard and this colorway adds a lil' bit of flavor. There's a reason the South Beach Lebrons sell for ridiculous amounts. Not saying these Rails will come anywhere close to the popularity of those but its something different

Though they pretty much are a SB color way, I honestly didn't see them as a SB theme. Just a clean execution of a Spurs color way. These would be dope with a grey Spurs fitted.

Man you know I respect you a lot right? But this^ I can not agree with, at least for the most part.

First of all Reebok is not Nike and that is not a Bron signature.

Second of all, I am not even sure why anyone buys Bron's, no meter what colorway, but that is just me, and I do understand that. But for Reebok to try to piggy back of Nike success of colorways is just funny and down hand lazy.

And third, you are exactly right, those will sit on shelves even longer than the OG colorways. 

Oh and Black and White is getting a bit boring, but if you are looking over every model as the same shoe, for me they are all different. I don't see people stop buying Black/Red J's from every single number, because is the same colorway. 

Sorry for the rant, but I truly dislike 99% of the none OG colorways out there.

Man I hear you. I see a lot of **** has gone down since I been away for a week due to me getting temporarily banned cuz some virgin kid got sensitive over being flamed for not knowing how to tie a pair of banner Questions properly. Then I see posts of dudes practically busting a nut over buying some worn jordans for over $100 acting like that's a steal. SMH. I don't eat people's leftover food and I don't wear previously worn shoes. 2 things I stand by and will never change

Anyways, I don't disagree with anything u said. The Spurs Rails are far from HOT, but I thought they were a nice change. I don't own any of the Rails and don't intend on buying any cuz they just aren't on my radar. But more power to anyone who's able to grab them for heavily discounted prices. And yea most, if not all, the non-OG colorway Reebok retros have been extra lame

DreamTeam, I'll agree with you on the fact that particular retro+ colour of the Rail isn't half as bad as all the retro+ garbage that Reebok is churning out. Compared to the other clown-colored, gum-sole retro+ colourway these are pretty subtle and actually bring out the design elements of the shoe.

That said, I don't think that even simple White or Black based colourways will appeal to the 'sneakerheads' simply because Reebok is doing a poor marketing job, Glenn Robinson was never a marquee/impact player and Nike/JB are literally flooding the market with (questionably) more desirable product.
 
them spurs tho.. and i'm pretty sure i can get them with a deep discount for the win
