    Getting this close seems nearly impossible now.. Their "close enough" motto is actually creeping up to acceptable status

    Vs. the last retro, which seemed just so dull and lifeless. Almost every retro at one point had a dulled look to them.

    You almost don't even realize how bad the blue was on the last retro. This latest one seemed to fix that quite a bit (although not perfect). I'll take one color correction at a time.. By 2015, we'll have it perfect

    looking forward to these. Hopefully will be available on discount shortly after release.

    High school memories right here.

    I remember a kid in my class had them in middle school. I might purchase a pair if it goes cheap, I definitely won't be getting them when they first release in Dec. due to the Concords.

    Always loved this shoe...

    I did cop the 05/06 joints. Color was not a major issue to me.

    But I dont see why they would drop these again so soon. I copped these and the BLACK/WHITE/RED colorway for like $35 each. 

    This 2011 pair will be copped again for the low. They'll sit

    what's the word on the price?

    I'm guessing release date would be in November - December.
