If you desire original styling, why limit should there be a limit to what's visible only? I def see your point, but collectors of many things want a reproduction close as can be. That can be vintage coke products, cars, vintage toys, etc.
The same reason people scratched their head when the Nike & swoosh was absent on the 88s under sole, and why many prefer vintage style boxes, and so on.
Small details matter just as much.

I just don't care for it. I get what you're saying too but I find caring about the design on your insole is an oxymoron all in itself

Everyone thinking these are going to be a super general release.Only reason I ask I live in a smaller metropolitan area and it seems that my local champs only get super GR.No local stores even drop foams so trying to secure these in a raffle and cop the hologram foams offline.

^^The insoles matter when people start doing legit checks. Especially if its a printed design on the insole.

Inside is important not only because it's OG, but because it follows the remaster criteria. Point blank period, I never understood people trying to make people who want certain details like a OG insole look stupid. If that's the case, I'm sure people wouldn't mind video game and DVD cases with all white colors and black letters since you're just playing the game. Smh, some of y'all are so pretentious

I wouldn't mind that at all, I'm playing the game not staring at the case. plus there's digital copies where the case and disk don't even exist, sooooo

soooooo smart *** the point is it's pointless to try to clean someone for wanting a detail like the OG insole if they like it, just like it's be crazy to clown someone for liking and expecting a decent looking game case or cover.

I see both points, but whens all said and done , aint nobody seeing that trait outside the one wearing em.
At the same time ,It'd be cool to have for that nostalgia.

It's not. People will see it whether if it's through pics, examining at a store, or putting them on each wear. It's a detail that won't be undetectable as you say.
Dont get caught up on if someone sees it or not. Well unless you tryna impress people by your shoes, then by all means i see you point.

find em so I can see, I might get it somewhat then
You're right but be that as it may, I find caring about it since I don't have rose tinted glasses, an oxymoron. it's literally a pointless thing to me IMO
I care how they'll look on feet, not what's on the inside

Dang ok we got it y'all, some ppl want the details for nostalgia and others draw the line at the outer off the shoe, meaning as long as it looks alright they're fine with their purchase.
Hypothetically speaking if these dropped with a plain black insole with a blue jumpman on em, I'd still cop. But if we are talking about preference and I'm dropping that $190 on Black Friday (which I won't) I would prefer the insole to be like the previous releases with that dope insole. I know I will be the only one looking at it but I would want it there if I could. IMO

They'll def have the insoles. They've given all the Retros of OG colorways their original insoles...
