Sick to my stomach, almost had road rage Im so mad. This would be fine if they release at least one OG along with this but no had to be something off the wall. Wonder what retail will be.

Only two colorways have been retroed since 2001 is unacceptable.

JB you can’t convince me gingers, breds and Cherrywoods won’t sell? And give the lows a shot for once.

I bet my house and car JB doesn’t even remember the following colorways exist:

Chrome II
Harbor Blue III
Mist Blue IV
Tour Yellow IV
Pink Stealth V
University Blue VII low
Pacific Blue VII
Orange Blaze VIII
Charcoal IX
Sacramento X
Linen X
Ice Green X
Argon Blue IE Low
Obsidian XII low
Playoff XIII lows
Varsity Maize XIII lows
Chartreuse XIVs
Columbia XIV low
Pacific Blue XIV low
Eastbay exclusive XV
All XV lows
Cherrywood XVI
All XVI lows
Cherry XVIII

Some guy in the comments of that post on IG said Cherrywoods are coming back next year. I pray it's true.

Edit: Hold on, just watched the Sneakerfiles videos. Free the Youth got Ghanaian connections? Nvm, these copped lmao

One of my life's regrets was passing on Cherrywood XVIs. I fronted hard on them, and even at $60, I passed...smh.

There was even a mistake hybrid we got in of a White/Navy midsole with a Cherrywood upper. To this day I cannot explain how that got through, but it defnitely exists.

I like the colors, don’t like the graphics on the side. Look forward to pics of the shoe.

lol kind of ironic. When I first read I thought it was a secret message from their labor force

 

[Magic33]

I hope they're better than that mock up

$250 for these.

June 13th is release date

“The upper arrives wrapped in a grey-white shroud, made from tumbled leather. Remove it, and the energy shifts—bright orange mesh panels and oversized “FTY” branding dominate the base. Black trim carves out structure, while pops of neon green hit the heel tabs and pull loop.

The design flips between subtle and loud depending on how it’s worn. That tension feels intentional—reflecting the group’s mission of empowering youth through culture, style, and duality.“

I’m out I love XVI but this isn’t for me.

You gotta hope this is a precursor to releasing some OG colorways. Otherwise, between this and what’s going on with the 17, it’s another JB trolling masterclass.

Free The Youth?

The hypocrisy

 

[PremioBinSoleFlyUnion]

Pushed back to July 17, many retailers and SNKRS will have these.

 

[PremioBinSoleFlyUnion]

Any update on these?
