Aqua 8s Black Friday 2015

I never noticed the different shades of the blue and purple before between the 07 and 15.

man that lighter shade of grey ala the OGs makes ALL the difference. that contrast is a subtle, yet major part of what made them so great aesthetically originally. def. grabbing a pair.
 
I swear I will be running these things into the ground. When I'm through beating these up through the fall and winter I hope these can these be had again for around retail come spring time!
 
As far as sizing are they true to size, or a little big? Like I wear 11.5 in 1's but 11 in 4's, are 8's similar to any of these two? just trying to figure out what size i should grab. appreciate any help. 
 
This.

I hit a bunch of Footlocker spots today, and a lot of them mentioned that nobody has really came to enter the raffles

I'd say stick with your size 11. Your sizing logic is consistent with what I normally see. You size up in 1's which I've known several to do because of the narrower fit. No need to size up in these. I've personally never had to size up in an 8.

I'm more happy then upset no one wants these. It makes it easier for you and. So far I've entered 2 raffles and am sure to get call backs on both our at least the probability is very high. This is my favorite shoe since 2007. Not much to do with Mike, the hype, or kanye I just love the look of the shoe, then I came to appreciate it's history.

If you're not a hypebeast whose favorites are the same as everyone else(Infrareds, NA 3s 4s 5s and all 11s), or you aren't a kanye west hop on, or if you just plain doing have any aesthetic sense you won't like these whether it's the 2007 version, OG, or these.

Sad but true

TTS or go try out the 3Peats to be sure.

View media item 1790430The straps are noticeably heavier. So if you rock these unstrapped like me you'll risk them looking drunk in the long run.
View media item 1790456Also the strap tabson the '15 are more close to OGs. No gloss and wider.

is the new pair Durabuck like the 2007s? It looks like it and could you compare the tongues up close?
 
The glitter is starting to look more like stars and the galaxy to me!!!! *I'm not high by the way*

A few employees voluntarily told me they got glitter and/or theyre ugly .

I said Idk about ugly, but without that glitter they wouldnt be a true OG retro.

Same story I got from the young cat at FTL where I got a ticket earlier.. he suggested I should pass on these and get foams or something. That these were ugly because they have glitter on the midsole and the grey on the back is too light. I said oh, so they're more like the original? And he said he didn't know how the OGs looked, just the last ones that came out. :lol:

I got the same thing from 2 different spots when I went to fill out some raffles. People aren't feeling the glitter and gray. They're dope to me tho. These are making the 07 joints look plain (still nice for what they're worth) but the 15s got that extra added touch [emoji]127919[/emoji] These look like Mike about to wear these in the 2016 AS game
