Nike Zoom Rookie - another Penny Hardaway hybrid (August 2011)

[darthska]

Aaaaahhhhh, yet another mindset that Nike loves to hear.

"You can learn to like them, if you really want to."

An acquired taste, like alcohol!

"If you're not thrilled about them to the point where you would pay $200, just keep thinking about them more and more, until you ARE thrilled about them, then call our customer reps with your order!"

Nah, I'm good on having to convince myself that I need something that has very little in the technology department and comes with all kinds of complaints from current owners, scattered by a few compliments from brand loyalists and insiders.

Foamposite Material was used on this shoe.  So take it or leave it.

Either Marc lying to you or he never owned a pair of foams.

Read my words home slice.  Foam material was used.... 
Ever heard of a Cotton Blend?

Silk Like?

Rayon lol


LOL at a foamposite blend

Came up on the glow in the darks they are clean they don't glow as much as i thought they would.. Any word on the reds actually dropping?

 

[welcome2jungle]

I need to scoop a pair of these look clean. I'm gonna have to wait till all blacks drop the white & black seem to be sold out online

 

[charmcitykid]

too much complaining in here man.

we get it, yall supposedly love the design

, but the price tag.. lack of tech.. no zoom.. no foam.. blah, blah, blah. shoe looks like hot fire to me so i copped them all. scheming on atlantics for a decent price.

all blacks will be copped. eggplants too. like i said everything that is remotely desirable by anyone is expensive and overpriced. what are u gonna do?? it's the world we live in deal with it fellas.

Thanks for the date.

I wish they would have released these in December, would have loved these for the winter.

 

[mross16]

I just purchased the white/blacks. They are very uncomfortable.

[wilroc]

Hadn't even tried these on until yesterday. Found out I should've went half a size up and copped a 9 

. Time to sell I guess.

 

[lil buttas]

Does anybody have any info on a possible realease of the black/yellow sample that surfaced as one of the first pics of the zoom rookies?

 

[ymcmb1]

I've bought 2 pairs so far, the price is a bit high but it's worth it.

 

[mpizzle561]

i need those white rookies in my life

 

[dar228]

What's up with the Eggplants?

 

[diirtyvandal]

My Zoom Rookies ..... 1of1 samples

 

[redd spyder]
