THE OFFICIAL TEAM POSITE THREAD

eBay ?

 

[mrdozo]

What site did you get them from ?

I've had a few pairs that started cracking by the laces, so I've sold/selling them.

Nothing lasts forever.

I got my pairs from Dover Street Market on release day. I think this coming year Ill be selling off all of my DS pairs sadly. I have too much and I need to cut back :/

I have yet to find a decent deal for either of those in my size over the last 10 years

Do you think you could wear them ?

I'd imagine they'd crumble before you step out of your home

 

[manposite]

Foamposite holds up incredibly well over time so probably

In fact, humbly, I might have the single oldest pair of ‘Posites made(prototypes), they’re 27 years old and still surprisingly supple…

…usually it’s the other upper materials & adhesives that prove to be the weak link
You can actually see the left shoe of the closest pair in that last pic of FP1s needs a glue job… but that’s no biggie

 

[mrdozo]

The nubuck area around the laces usually cracks on my pairs.

The uppers are fine. I have had some previous OG pairs crack on the posite portions where the shoe flexes with wear. Typically the only issue is sole separation. Maybe someday I will have them restored, but I am ok with just having them stored in the closet.

You have a wear test sample from 97?

 

[manposite]

If you mean those Foam One prototypes from ‘96 that are floating around with ‘NIKE’ molded into the upper…

…Nah, I’m talking about a shoe that predates even those

Nike made typos on the original box label?

IMO that whole era(07 thru 10/11) remains the high watermark of retro Posites with those^ HoHs being some of the crowning jewels…

Facts man. NO other era in the line even comes close. I say 07-11 also.
Sadly I’m afraid the Foamposite One and Pro is dead finally. Not that i want it to be, but there hasn’t been a drop since the CDG and they essentially flopped.
It was fun while it lasted, but I’ll still enjoy hunting down the pairs I was never able to get.

For the night

Next drop possibly? Or some custom?

I want this exact shoe but instead of Navy, I want it all black up top. How much more simple could it be?
