I disagree with this statement applying to the current iteration of foams.
Is it me, or does these "silver surfer" pros look more appropriate for a Dr. Doom nickname?

it's basically a variation of the half cent, while I personally don't like it, I see it being a popular pick up.

no thanks.
I have the royal foam ones, and the half cents. no need for these.
Plus with that air max unit, im sure the MSRP would be $275

Aint gonna lie I probably would lol. My favorite combination to hoop in is Air Max in the heel and zoom in the forefoot. Older Lebrons and Penny 5's are some of my favorites to hoop in.
But I agree, that MSRP would be damn near 300 :x

Recent foams aren't built ford tough like the older ones but I think they still holdup pretty well.

my OG's didnt last as long as my 2007's.. if only we can have that mold used for the new foams.. then we would have a perfect combination of foam and nubuck upper material :-D

I'm personally not a user of those sole protectors or whatever they make, shoes are meant to be worn and yellowing comes with that. Now, I disagree with that because from my experience and knowledge of foams, the earlier versions were tanks. I'm basing this off the models that I've personally own and still do. Specifically the 02 royal pros and 01 black pros. I've worn them for years and they have gotten dirty and scuffed, and I've wiped them with a damp rag, and they look like new. Now, I see foams that scrape easily and I've seen the white coating under the foam material in newer foams which seems so odd to me. That was a sign that they were being made cheaper. The foam material is a lot softer, I've seen it in the electric blue pros, gym green pros, and the yeezy foams. All of which I've held in hand and couldn't believe the difference I've felt from what I knew of foams.

From that angle they look really tempting, but before releasing those, release the white/ black PE and all black PE from 1997!
That being sad, I think the Vachetta Bla Bla shoes are the biggest trash ever! 300 for a foam Pro that would look best in Arabian sand dunes! LOL

I think my manager wanted to low key send me home the other day when I wore these to the office. He kept throwing subliminal shade at how loud my sneaks were. Keep in mind half the office, including myself, wear sneakers to work all time considering we have a casual dress code policy.
I haven't wore them to work since. Didn't want to hear his mouth again.
That blue really does pop though.

I have other questions about that though.. Sneakers arent gonna give people envy.. I wear kicks all the time but then again these people got Teslas and stuff.I think my manager wanted to low key send me home the other day when I wore these to the office.

Supervisors are definitely hating lol. If it's casual.. wear your foams. I wish my job was casual... they'd think I was a freak.

I can't see the appeal. But I'd take a half cent retro if that's the case. Wouldn't be a bad time to rerelease those.

If anybody is still looking for royals, Undefeated still has most sizes.
