The Mariners never really wore navy shoes with their uniforms, mostly opting for black cleats. The only navy cleats I can remember during the Griffey years wear a pair navy/silver pair of Griffy 3's I think. So the black has never bothered me. Not saying they shouldn't do a navy version of his shoes though because I think they would be pretty sick! A navy/silver Griffey 1, 2 or 3 would kill!

Yeah, the black never bothered me either.  You have to remember, these first came out in the mid-90's when most of the cleats were predominantly black.
Yep, PUN I remember those too... I think the bigger change came when Jr wore some grey AGM3's.

Anyway, I did this PS a long while back... woulda been nice I suppose.

I was thinking straight Midnight Navy/white (like your PS) but with silver accents, no teal or red. The swoosh, air bubble, 24, front lace loop and pull tabs would be silver. It would've matched their alternate jerseys perfect, especially when they had the silver piping on the front and around the neck.

He wore silver Griffey 3's for the "turn ahead the clock" game, those need to be quick striked because I'm really getting close to pulling the trigger on the silver 1's and I really don't like that color!

Feeling the lime joints and Freshwaters. I'm a sucker for 360s anyway.

I dont think those black/red fusions look very good. The neon green ones though look pretty nice.

Yes you did, and I still appreciate it

Those would be incredible

I'm not the biggest fan of the torch material either. And the combination of the 24 being at the top and no strap to break up the profile, these have a more high top look to them. Hopefully they impress more in person.

^^ I'm co-signing on that.
The new pics are starting to make me a believer.
They are going to be sooooo comfy like my 24/7's.
