Cog,
Let's all take things REAL seriously...
BTW, I never saw any reply to any offer of lunch, and I live in Seattle now...
NIke is great...somtimes...other times that suck...
I judge purely on shoe to shoe, design to design, campaign to campaign...I am NOT biased towards anything in particular, in fact, I feel that I am the most objective person on this board...
The FP1 is the greatest shoe ever...followed by the Jordan IV, III, VI, V, etc...
I just feel that Nike puts out a lot of trash that sells ONLY because it has a swoosh on it...
Nike hasn't put out a new style that I have felt compelled to buy since the Hyperflght...it has been some lean years for footwear at the swoosh, without retro shoes, IMO...
Maybe this board would be better if we all just said...
"Oh, Nike, those Zoom Generations are the greatest thing since sliced bread, PLEASE make more shoes that look like those" and we can just happily go on our way and by stuck with uninspired designs (that Nike will force retailers to buy) for the next 5 years...
Can't we just agree to disagree...you work for Nike and thus you are forced to not say bad things about their products on a public message board...
I, on the other hand do not work for a sneaker manufacturer, thus, I can state my opinion and have it be in a place where it is biased...
