FOAMPOSITE DISCUSSION Nike Air Foamposite One SWOOSH ALL OVER DEC192019

[witnesskb24]

Clean couple pair of pros back to back

How are these in person? Quality/materials any different with them being women’s? The more I see them while looking for older foams the more I like em

Used to have these -- there's no difference in materials or quality, they're the same as mens.

I just wish they had black collar/eyestay/tongue. But it's a nice pair; kinda regret selling em.

I still have a DS pair (WMN 12)

liek mentioned above, they are nice. I really like the color, I just wish the eyestay, liner and tongue was black. That material looks horrible after some wear

 

[witnesskb24]

Yeah I wish it was black too. I’ve seen some more worn pairs and it does look awful. I’m a sucker for iridescent type colors

Noice! Never seent those before.



Makes me think, those are definitely a better matchup with the Green Goblings.

Aren’t the fairly recent legion greens similar? Haven’t seen them in person tho

Close, but they're not metallic/iridescent like the WOMENS pair. The Womens pair flips colors almost

Word.
Reminds me of the older Gym green pair. I wore those daily, dope color way

That's why I have 2 pair of Gym Greens lol. Don't forget the Pines too, very under rated. I believe I have 2 of those as well

 

[I Am Si Guy]

I love the Pine Pros but that era of Foamposite was quite bad. The shoes had no indents on the grooves and the uppers were as soft as Solo Flights.

CDGeez yesterday. Color looks pretty true to IRL here in this pic

Very nice, cant get over the thumbprint / brain texture for myself but they look cool there

Never understood how this could be a Women’s color. Always reminds me of the Green Goblin lol

I thought that too and had to double check it was actually women’s

Man them Penny “PEs” are under retail by quite a bit on my size on GOAT. So tempting

Don’t, they’re kinda trash. Bad paint job and fake leather instead of nubuck makes them look cheap.

Must be nice to be a size 8. My group (12-13) are still at or slightly above resell.

Nike's been using leather on foamposites since the dr dooms. Even the women colorways have leather. Folks just complaining to complain.

Don't forget the UNC Pros. And leather isn't the issue

Its Nike always having to go back and change something on an older pair

Honestly, that’s why I’m passing on the metallic reds. They look dope, but that leather eyestay makes them look cheap.

A material change on any retro is going to be problematic when want most people want is there classic as it was when it first released. Totally changes the look of the shoe.

Forgot about those.

Nah, if you look in the thread people have implied foams shouldn't have leather eyestays. I've never heard that mentioned until the PE's released, which technically aren't an older pair that people had.

The threads biggest complaint with the new Metallic Reds is the leather eyestay.

When they retro'd the eggplants and coppers I complained about this new blue tinted outsole Nike loves now for some reason.
