So, apparently Adidas is ready to bringaback the Mutombo. The retro is fairly faithful to the OG, minus his africa-inspired logos. Atleast the leather isbetter then a lot of Nikes retros...Check out more pics at the B.O.P.

EDIT: Opps! Thought I was in other brands. MODS please move accordingly...

This should be in Other Brands.

Other than that, cool. Never thought they'd bring it back out.

Pretty dope, although I have always felt like the logo made the shoe. They look naked without it.

These look pretty good, I'd probably cop, but it does seem like it's missing something.
