This. I am surprised too. Seems like these sold fast back in 06. Also seems like the 6's coming out on saturday are getting most of the hype.

They won't get the attention they deserve until after the Olympic VI's drop. Wait until after the drop and people will start hitting this thread more.

At no point did Spike Lee wear the original Fire Red IVs whilst associated with the Mars persona.

Are these still coming out on the 4th? No solid release date from Nike STILL. Most websites just list these as August drops. unless these are QS they would have solid release info if it were coming out in under a month. I really hope they pushed the release date back to the 25th, because that would be wayyyyyy more convenient for me.

Right now there are only 5 shoes on my GUARANTEED pick-up list:


Fire Red IV

Black/Red IV

Black/Red XI

Black/Red XIII

Fire Red V

Everything else is up in the air. I'm really trying to preserve money!

^For me it is the Olympic 6s, the Fire Red IVs, the Bred IVs, The Doernbecher Vs (to find someone to trade for the IVs), Grape Vs. And im 50/50 on the Olympic VIIs. Depending on my financial situations I may or may not pick up the Is and Vs next year. I'll more likely be saving up for the VIs in 2014

Not sure if I want to cop or not but it'll be a game time decision for me.

 

[brennanizm]

Verified: Same leather as the Cement IV. So basically these will be durable as hell, but stiff as Mike Miller... (Also, ya'll might want to change your NT passwords if you haven't already, "SneakerTalk" is getting sheisty.)

 

[solecontrol]

I hate when a shoe's secondary color is so 50/50 like these are...same thing with the Cavs 4's.

 

[mst9023]

these the cool grey 9's and the black 4's in november are all i need for the rest of the year

 

[jonwin]

I was planning on buying all the IV's coming out this year but have decided I can't get everything; just becomes overkill for me at a certain point. Thinking I'll pass on these and get the V's coming out in early 2013 instead.

[tampakix]

nice

 

[jb 11368]

I hope the paint on these doesnt crack as fast as the Mars did.

 

[yoshoegameiswack]

I think i want these more than any shoe this summer.

 

[rhinosport]

nice pics up there!

 

[imui for2oh]

the release page at the sneaker spot i work at says the 4s are white/varsity red/black..

 

[da r entertainment]

I'm excited about this shoe.

 

[chasekaboom]

These, cements, military's or breds take the cake for 2012?

 

[cg 2]

I like these but might just get the Breds when they come out I can't decide I personally like the Militarys just wish they didn't crease so bad
 

 

[stc153393]

I always thought these were rather boring. Passing these to get the raptors

Verified: Same leather as the Cement IV. So basically these will be durable as hell, but stiff as Mike Miller... (Also, ya'll might want to change your NT passwords if you haven't already, "SneakerTalk" is getting sheisty.)

I'll take the stiff leather over the soft leather on the military's. Thanks for the heads up!
