    I didn't realize how rare those white Untouchables were.

    If we are talking about missed opportunities on cleats...I should have bought every single pair of Zoom Vapor Carbons from Ross and TJ Maxx when they were $15. :smh:

    Currently looking at Nike.com they might as well be...over the last couple of weeks I have seen Vapor Ultimates, Speed Jets, Carbon Elite 2014, Vapor Untouchables, older Alpha model and some CJ's.

    I hear what you are saying...I have long advocated for a retro of the 4.2 and the Zoom Vapors. Love to see a retro of the OG Magnigrips and Remix gloves too.

    Alpha lows have potential. Have to wait and see what the specs are on it.

    Those have potential, in the right color scheme. That color way is UGLY.

    That last color way posted, maybe because it is listed as a SMU for Russ Wilson the price is $199....:x Even 12 fans aren't going to buy those at that price.

    Never mind that Russ cleat is supposedly limited and wasn't suppose to release until Thursday. It is no longer available on Eastbay either whether that be from selling out or a mishap on putting them up early.

    Looking at that Nike link for the Russ cleats Nike also has posted, "Check back Thursday 3/30/17 to view a full range of colors in this cleat."

    Been saying that for YEARS...and when they did they put it in the heel (and it was a small, barely felt bag at that) Why not in the forefoot at least.

    I hope with the rise of popularity in Boost technology and it being used in full length on an adidas cleat it puts pressure on Nike to do the same with Zoom. Not that Zoom adds that much weight but I would gladly sacrifice a few ounces for the springy, responsive feeling of a full length Zoom cleat.

    Every pair of basketball shoes I have owned with zoom has popped. Every single one, about 6 pairs. Had to return every single pair

    $200...nah I'll pass or sit on those - maybe reserve judgement until the lows drop.
