thanks for the comparison pics. i think its pretty conclusive evidence, you can CLEARLY see the difference in the embossed lines.
goddamit this is what i was afraid of.
notice how the lines are fuzzier on the 2010 version? that usually means there were some variances in the molding process, most likely a timing issue or the pu foam temp being off by a few degrees
i do love the new icier bottoms, though

i think dudes are tripping out for no reason. it's useless trying to compare from pictures. just wait to see them in person and all of your doubts or fears will be erased. the 2010 pair is nicer in my opinion and i had the '09's. with the icey blue sole...
'10 > '09.
'10 > '09.

u just have to accept the fact that people beast of shoes... but in their hearts, they really dont want them tho hype consumes them. then when they find an escape route (ex: sole color or mold) they try to jump off the bandwagon thinking they have a valid excuse

Dudes on NT just love to complain. I don't care how blue the damn sole is. I need these shoes. I haven't felt right since my 09s got stolen last year.
And I'm willing to go above retail. So if you in the DMV and can guarantee me a pair please hit my inbox.

Does it matter the sole is more icy than '09 pair, dudes really complain, if this were to be a jordan let's say 11's and 6's, they've would of wanted a more icy sole and now since its on foams people don't want icy foams? All these guys complaining need to get professional help.

I dont think no 1 is complaining, they are just pointing out the obvious, and just stating thier opinions, thats all..
they look like the same shoe to me.. thanks for the pics everyone... lets get it

^^Totally agree! People change and as we get older change is expected. In addition to what you said @Sway , I didnt care much for kicks until I was in middle school either and I completely agree with your point. Hypebeast or not with my funds being readily available to buy any shoe I want, I still wouldnt do so. I buy shoes that a)I like and that bring back great memories and b)My wife likes lol! and thats all that matters IMO!
