I don't get why they are marketing these green and purples as "Phoenix" what does that even have to do with the cw. Never seen one portrayed with those colors
Asics Love?!? Where is it?

I thought the grey/red pair was Phoenix because of the whole rising from the ashes thing which visually makes a lot more sense on those

I wondered the same thing when I saw that name attached to the shoes. Apparently the older mythological Phoenix was colorful, sometimes being compared to a peacock, so I'm picturing the body having off-white feathers with the tail/wing feathers being green and purple. Just a hunch from a little reading.

And maybe phoenixes love eating pistachios?
This cncpts collab has no concept IMO.

That sneakernews article is bogus, they're saying that the pistachios are representing the Phoenix's nest, makes 0 sense. Blogs always try to make stuff up for things that have no special name/theme.

So the concepts website has a pic of the red and grey gl Vs and says available online at 12 EST. So is it just the pistachio's that will be in store only?

I would be willing to bet this "warehouse fire" thing is when they decided to name them what they named them.

Not seeing a mythical majestic phoenix when I look at this other Concepts shoe. Maybe a grape sitting in dust.

without a doubt the greyred pair cncpts released are far better executed v the pistachio, which just looks confused like it doesn't know what it wants to be.

maybe thats what its going for and the shoe is supposed to represent a concepts asics collab without a protest fire backstory

From what Ive read there will be 3.
(via Tblake). I know hes pretty "in" with Concepts so sounds reliable enough but take it for what its worth.

oh ok. yeah hes usually pretty reliable. just cant imagine what the third would look like considering how different these 2 are. probably more to go around though since nothing was said about a third pair losing inventory
